Reflective?

Not to worry,
Not to hurry,
Day passed in a rainy fury,
My vision, of late, is sometimes blurry...


Poem Artwork

My phone is dead,
lucky phone,
My life I lead from bed,
enough said…

I am not depressed,
nor am I stressed,
Don’t want to be blessed,
prayer not requested…

Sometimes wish to be left alone,
like I was before I was grown,
To sit in quiet reflection,
I do not from within moan or groan.

I feel that way not too rarely and people wonder where I've gone. Social media has exacerbated this... ...but, maybe it shows people care. Love and peace,

I think everyone needs "alone time" however measured. It's all good. You're being called by inspiration as she wants to insert a new muse into your brain.

Love ya!

We all need time alone to clear our minds of daily nonsense and to breathe. My time is at night when everyone is asleep. I sit alone and write my poetry and my book. No TV. No interruptions. Peace.

I think this feeling of being content alone must come with age as a blessing since many old people are alone. I am also much of the time "alone", giving me time to write the poetry. If more people were making demands on my time, I would only wish to be more alone. Like Jerry said, Hang in there buddy.
