I know a delightful bum too. I related because this great description typifies him. He was homeless for several years. Even now that he's "responsible," he never has been in the usual sense...Jerry

Starts cold and full of gloom, but ends with life and hope of love to bloom.
Very good poem. A good poet tells a good story. As you did with this.
Blessings,

Thank you for all of your comments. I really saw this young man last Wednesday night as he walked far from buildings, in a hard down pour of cold rain. He seemed to be headed toward a shopping center - my own destination - and he struck me in just the way I described; however, I instilled qualities in him which I had found in another such young man...so yes, Victor, you're right. This is based on stark reality.

I admire such grit.
Gina

An ontological meditation poemizing the feelings of wise psychological definition of a "Solitary Silhouette" -- poetized with the lexis of a sage soul.

I enjoyed the reading of "Solitary Silhouette".

I salute You, Poet.

The hope in this poem is very uplifting. It's greatest feature is its reality. There are many solitary silhouettes in this world. They all crave for company. You captured their feelings well. Victor
