Author's Notes: This particular write, entitled: "Solitude" is a "Accentual Meter" type of poem. (I classified this poem in PoetrySoup under "Free Verse" since this type of accentual metered write is not normally listed under the PS classification pick-list.) This poem is quite interesting as it sums up of some of my specialized ideas and views on Solitude. We all need time -- now and then -- to ourselves to contemplate events, issues, and things in our respective lives. Enjoy this write and this particular poetic format!!
