Gone Into Recluse

Alone
just by myself
on a sun-dappled lane
wary step after wary step
is a serene pathway my heart follows
to an austere isolation
where darker shadows reign
into the woods
alone.

Abdul. I thought yours was one of the best on the list . Also, I have not yet seen anyone else using Rictameter as you did. Congrats on the winners' list.

I really like how you did yours using the rictameter style, Abdul. I like the word you chose to use also.
