Come and Find Me In My Solitude

If you are wondering where I am
                                 When I am in my happiest place
                                   You will find me in my recliner 
                                      With a smile on my face

                                   A cup of coffee on my side table
                                   IPad lying on a pillow in my lap
                                       Facebook and the Internet   
                                         And poetry sites to tap


                                     Outside the windows I can see
                                    All kinds of birds feeding on seed
                                   One or two squirrels are in it too
                                   Hungrily getting what they need

                                 One Pomeranian cuddled by my leg
                              Two Vizslas lying at my feet on the floor
                               Technology and nature watch and pets
                                  How could I possibly ask for more?

                                    You may say I am not alone 
                                     Because dogs are company
                                      But they don't interrupt or
                                      Ask me to turn on the TV

Thank you so much for your flattering review. Yes, I wrote it long ago and it was actually a reminder when I read it that I had written it. I will read some of your poetry because I think we kind of think alike.

Hello Janet, am new to the Soup. Found your name associated online with Greek poets. I really like this poem. Well written and a mirror of my life.. I see you wrote it a few years back. Still, an excellent read. Thank you. Panagiota Romios
