Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

All Alone

  
      I remember him seated on a bench
         in the park all alone
      A young man who did not feel at home
       
      Pleasant to all who wished him ‘Good Day’
         He did not know what else to say

Panagiota Romios June 20, 2025 at 2:44 PM Hello Gershon, People have answers all prepared, but you know what I mean! . And they are as phony as all get out! Blech.!Pangie! I like this phone because it’s not like other pros. It’s very unusual and honest.

Paula Goldsmith June 20, 2025 at 12:06 PM I enjoyed reading your wonderful yet sad "All Alone" write. Have a blessed day/weekend writing away.......

Oliver Mckeithan June 20, 2025 at 6:37 AM Good one Gershon. Many people are like this young man now a days. I think electronic social media contributes to this Gershon Wolf July 28, 2025 at 8:45 AM I think so too, Oliver.

sara Etgen-Baker June 20, 2025 at 6:22 AM I felt the loneliness and sadness. Many times, I've felt estranged from myself, sitting alone somewhere trying to make sense of things. Truly 'good day' was about the only words I could muster. well done, yellow rose (faving)

Joseph P. DiMino June 20, 2025 at 2:16 AM I think we can all relate to this, in one way or another. Spirit will always feel somewhat estranged when in the human body.
