Pondering

Friends are few Family is too The phones aren’t ringing But the birds are singing I’m going back to college And get my PhD School is a good alternative To show that you’re a wiz When it’s really all about biz I’ll parlay this knowledge Into dollars The Lord is my Shepard I shall not want Says my Heavenly Father In my quietness I find self When There’s No One Else Solitude Is good for the soul Undiscovered feelings Unfold

Hi, Lara, I agree, to ponder is good. I especially enjoyed your last line about discovering feelings and how they unfold. We all need solitude at times, especially poets!

Hi Kevin, thanks for reading my poem and the kind words. My mind was fluctuating about this and that and I just had to quiet my mind and focus on beautiful, kind, lovely, thoughts. May God continue to bless you.
