Embracing Solitude
I tell myself it will be okWe’ll know more another day
We’ll find new ways to work it out
We talk and brainstorm quietly
Often I speak to myself at tea
Considering who I’ll be today
What I’ll do and how I’ll play
Who might call or stay away
Hours I spend with just we three
Me, myself and the schemes we dream
While the willow tree sweeps back and forth
——-
Sometimes we ponder books I’ve read
And work at writing insights found
Mostly to simply clarify, yet
Sometimes to share the
Joys abounding all
Around our life
