Loneliness Loneliness has marred my view Shadowed flowers of their true Sprinkled wet to mold unkind Shrouded fret upon my mind Tinted gleams that once were green Darkened dreams that were my preen Turned the brilliance of my sky To the gray of subtle lie And I miss the sun of day The light of spirit and the gay The passing of the state of flux My flights of wild with flying ducks It is a feeling that I rue It is the touch less touch of you A vacant tongue without the taste The phantoms wish that turns to waste I would a brighter path to wend I would the solitude to end. |

A beautifully written piece Sy. Thankfully you have your beloved wife by your side. Last week I spend the day at an assisted living complex for seniors. So many of them are truly lonely and alone. It broke my heart. But what joy to see their faces light up when I spoke to them and gave them a smile and a bit of conversation. Hugs to you oh master poet. Marti |

Seymour~ This line of thought - 'It is a feeling that I rue It is the touch less touch of you' is overwhelmingly poignant~ Lovely Wednesday morning greetings to you~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Mr. T., we all can have moments of loneliness--even in a crowded room or surrounded by friends and family. There are varying degrees of separation that we experience in life--and no one ever truly knows absolutely everything about us--no matter how close we may be to them. You really are someone special, my dear sweet sonneteer! Lots of lovin' hugs and angel kisses, EA |

Oh how I love the such of your poetic touchless touch ... words wrapped in rhyme that have come to mean so much. A bond that crosses over the distance of too many miles ... a promise kept, replacing tears wept with sighs & smiles. Loneliness wont fare when friends reach out in cadenced care ... Quiet comfort we share ... I'm blessed in knowing you're there.  |
