Lonely Muse

Loneliness prevails,
In the corner of my room;
Naked and alone.



Inspired by Brian Strand's picture poems contest

What an incredible image you convey, Tyler! Surely we feel naked and secluded when we are lonely. Beautiful writing! Love, Carolyn

Tyler, what a clever haiku. And you captured the feel of the painting in just those few words. Congratulations on your success in Brian Strand's Picture Poem contest.
