Solitude Where Are You?

The story is the same

It’s always the same

Escape from wall to wall people

Festivities, trivialities

Desiring a different experience

Hear my heart beat

Truly breathe

Solitude where are you?

 

For once to be truly alone

Ways to seek

Seek and you will find

New Year’s Day finds me in a forest

Far from the moderate crowd

Rain lashes down and I care not

The allure of wildness

Solitude where are you?

 

Driving downpour pounds me

Branches offer scant protection

Wind cuts through me

And I feel ALIVE

Not a human soul to be seen

Be at one with nature

Gaia at her most extreme

Oh yes, here is solitude!
