Solitude by Judith Allen

Privacy helps us develop solitude,

is necessary to listen in depth,

perhaps to our attitude:

past or present times.

solitude gives you time to reflect,

on good and interesting times:

or maybe a time you were upset,

or simply on use of time,

from relationships and needs,

things that you can perfect,

create dreams, set goals,

to one day achieve them,

often in solitude problems can be solved,

confusion, depression and anger begin to clear.

eventually we are able to understand and hear,

what we were not able to before.

#2 A Poem

A poem can tell my story
about how I really feel,
it opens me right up,
my true self it shall reveal,

A poem can express my opinion,
without making me feel dumb,
it explains the unexplainable,
my guide to life it has become,

A poem can help my dreams come true
and lift my spirit high,
a poem can impact upon my life,
or make me want to cry,

A poem can give me enough hope,
to fill an empty hole,
it can find the passage way,
to enter my soul,

A poem can show me all the light
that is soon to come my way,
a singe poem is all it take
to get me through my day!
