Embracing Solitude

 ~ Me, Myself & I ~

I tell myself it will be ok

we’ll know more another day 

we’ll find ways to work it out 

we talk, we brainstorm silently 


Often I speak to me 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 willow tree


We scheme new dreams while

willow sweeps gently back and forth

quiet, just beyond our lovely porch


Sometimes we ponder books I’ve read

or work at creating poems instead 

mostly to simply clarify, yet

sometimes to share the

the joys abounding all

around our life


  ~ Me, My Soul and I ~
