SOLITUDE

 Oh Solitude, you are so sweet!!

The balm of a tired soul, 

The companion of a word-worn mind....

You heal best...

You love the most...

And the mind, once free of thoughts, can breathe....


Lonely amidst the crowd, 

Torn and wounded in arguments,

The heart flutters to escape.....

To escape and hide in a place 

Unseen and unknown and forgotten!

Then oh Solitude, you embrace and soothe...

You collect the thoughts, suspend them 

And calmness descends on the mind...

The muscles ease, the veins throb no longer...

Silence is music to the ears!
