Constance La France Poet Acrostic

Notes About The Poem

Loneliness

Lonely is the life of a writer- for we seek solitary places,
off the beaten path. Sometimes, I wrap myself in loneliness.
Not to say, I am forlorn or forsaken but I am a writer of sadness,
entwined completely in my words and poems.  I like a lonely road. 
Lost in thoughts, I meander a cemetery at times.  It may seem gloomy,
in reality, it is full of peace and tranquility, could I ever find a quieter place.
Nothing is more secluded.  I go hiking and love to listen to birds sing.
Ever feel alone, although in a crowd of people, I have many times.
Solitary does not mean lonesome or friendless or abandoned.
Sweet is the life of a writer- for we seek out aloneness.

Vladislav Raven July 24, 2016 at 8:49 PM Hi Constance, well it looks like i have to send you a congratulations on a win in a contest. This write is so true, although some of us have always known loneliness, not chosen. This write is real, an acrostic that just has to be read. The words say it all Constance. Excellent write. This has to be a seven and a fave. Hugs....Mike. XX

Andrea Dietrich July 23, 2016 at 10:21 AM Love this one too, dear. I am JUST like you, except I am just as happy in my alone-ness to be at the computer or in my house as out on a walk. I so relate to this one. This deserves a high win.

Sandra Haight July 23, 2016 at 9:31 AM Oh...forgot the 7! Here is is.

Sandra Haight July 23, 2016 at 9:30 AM I really like your 'loneliness' poem, Broken Wings. I believe creative people, like serious poets, artists, and musicians, are born with the 'aloneness' gene which helps them to look within on a more emotional and creative level and become more the 'observers' of life...always on the outside, looking in. Best wishes for the contest. 7 Hugs, Sandra
