Notes About The Poem

In Equal Measure - dodo


a man who loves company,
yet treasures his solitude.
just leave him alone, for now;
don't take it to heart!.

Great, Edward. …leave him alone for now. This is a hopeful write, letting us know that sometimes you must be patient, letting a person be energized through solitude. Congrats!

The first two lines perfectly describe someone needing a moment alone--as we have all experienced from time to time---and the ending lines aptly supportive of that. A moment well captured, my friend.
