Alone I can do as I please yet nothing pleases me I can't rest easy because the easy that I rest on is gone My patience is short and my days are long I know I shouldn't pause but fill every minute of the day... when you do it time flies a way My blues are such I feel stuck inside of me reaching out from home by my computer and phone to a close few and my Pipsters too It is a particular kind of hell in which the lonely dwell LGR(C)8/10/11 |

Haha! As soon as I saw the title to this post immediately my mind said, "Lori." Sure enough when I looked there was your name. Nice poem of wanting, yearning and wishing your guy would just come home. Sorry for laughing. ~ If work is so terrific, why do they have to pay you to do it. ~ |

I was thinking about you as I wrote it wondering how you do alone everyday. Thank God for Zoe... |

It's interesting to read a poem like this and think about how different people are. I am really social, but I love my alone time. Maybe because I am not truly alone. It's interesting to think about and your poem got me there, Lori. A |

It is a particular kind of hell in which the lonely dwell Amen to that! *S* It's one thing to be alone... altogether different to be lonely. |

Solitary and Lonely are 2 completely different birds. I have been in both places and can relate. |

Suthern thank you so much for assuring me there is a difference. I think I have a double whammy. Thanks for being here, it does help ox Lori |

Lori, I enjoyed your poem and am glad your particular kind of Hell is of a temporary nature. For me, being on my own (except for Cleo and Benji and the spirits of Flicka, Tigger and Daisy), is a particular kind of Heaven! Owl |

according to the wise women above you are merely a solitary free bird and not a lonely suckatoo. I celebrate your joy with you when you write...it just oozes out of you like honey. Lori |
