''Utterly, Totally, Entirely, Lonely''


"All alone!  Whether you like it or not, 
alone is something you'll be quite a lot!"
     Quote from- Dr. Seuss,  Oh, The Places You'll Go! And The Larax
________________________


Sometimes I am utterly, totally, entirely lonely, 
     There are days all I want to do is eat macaroni;
And on the carpet play roly-poly with my doggie,
           Secluded and apart, toasty, cozy and all solitary.

Alone in myself, all alone wholly and sorrowfully,
     Altogether silent, oh I enjoy the quiet completely;
Lonely can be good for writing a long, long story,
        Or penning a sweet verse or rhyming a little poesy.

So when you feel lonely, just be still and write poetry,
     And don't be sad, don't be afraid and don't be angry,
                                                 Just be lonely.

Aww what a beautiful poem Constance. It feels good to read your old poems. It's a bit sad, but you ended it in a positive note. I too, at times, love loneliness, when I can do a lot of things that I really love to do.... Hugs ~ Ani
