Saturday night’s here again
Surround sound becomes my friend
A good book keeps me company
Alone I enjoy four-part harmony
Blinds closed to keep the world out
Wine consumed by those devout
My choice was made long ago
To live alone as I grow old
Unhealthy to some who disbelieve
That meditation seems to relieve
One from life’s daily crap
Leaves everyone with some handicap
Ears attuned to a string quartet
Heavenly sounds and space intersect
Melodious and resonant vibrations abound
My soul refreshed by sweet sounds
An orchestra plays inside my head
The conductor stands before my bed
A final overture fills the room
Lifts me up from senseless gloom
Tympanic beats penetrate my skin
My thoughts now muted from within
Alone by choice I think not
But my music is all I got
On that Single note, I'm convinced. You write it well, and with a great job of rhyming. (Wish I could do that!) Again, we learn that being alone means that you're able to select your companions. - Bill
Keith,
Being alone is not always a bad thing, as long as you like yourself. I've found over time I'm actually very good company to myself.
So break out the wine, the cheese and crackers, and a good dvd..
Heck..life doesn't get better than that!
Good write Keith.

This work is very well done in it's description of one who is alone.
I must admit though, a glass of merlot and Sybalius make great companions.
