Being Alone

The bamboo drifts through whirl of breeze To gently urge me back to quiet rest Opening the veil of fresh morn's grace To becalm my heart .where gjastly shadows lie-- Our lyre of affection... fading away I sip notes of love alone with night; Beauty still her pose, beneath cloudscape Finding her thoughts among bubbling shores, The whisper of night- music as one. Kindled by echoes, the moon's fading light, Falling upon fluid of smokey eyes. .......................... Song I - Cold - Quiet Now Contest For Rob Carmack 9/3/2020

Hi Nette. Congratulations on your memorable Win! Bamboo analogy is beautiful, demonstrating our need to bend with change, remaining resilient. Overall tone of melancholy and reflection permiates through. A very poinant piece, - well deserved high placement.

Well written Nette, loneliness is not a nice place to be, especially when you lose your soul mate. Tom
