The poem captures the profound sense of longing and solitude experienced by an individual. With each verse initiated by a letter from the word "lonelyness", it outlines the emotions evoked by solitude in a romantic, melancholic, and alluring tone. Each verse also mentions a different flower, which adds a layer of metaphor and symbolism to the expressed emotions. The poem moves through the phases of night into dawn, mirroring the progression of the speaker's feelings - from deep yearning and a sense of loss, to a new hope and acceptance of solitude. In essence, it's a journey of an individual embracing their solitude, experiencing a range of emotions from longing and melancholy, to seduction and romance. Despite the loneliness, there is a beauty in the experience, much like the beauty of the flowers that accompany each verse. It's a celebration of resilience, the human spirit, and the ability to find beauty even in solitude.
This short poem, for a friend of mine, is an attempt to build some respect and confidence in my dear friend who is going through a very tough time at the moment. I wont say what it is she is suffering with but, it's curable. xx

Acrostic
It's an acrostic about fame and money.
This poem is self explanatory
Lonely nights when I sit and stare, a blank wall and there is nothing there. Over and over I pray and hope, will tonight be the night, but still I stare. Silently time marches on, a faint crack of dawn, nig

A small taste of my political flavorings
This 'surprisingly' just won a contest for a 'Christmas' acrostic. I think it was the idea of using the carols rather than the actual quality of the poem, that and the fact that there were only 19 entries. But what the hell... a win is a win :)
Happy Friday! Be happy no matter what, it seems its an "inside job" and a "choice"! Choose well. My love to all.
Thank you Odette Spirit Sister for your beautiful example! This one is for my daughter in Mexico!
Just a simple return of kindness to one of the best we have ! Take a bow C.K.
My first WORD ACROSTIC
Warm thoughts of a lady friend, captured in ink !
This is my tribute to my feathered friends whose song is so melodious, soothing and uplifting to my being. I do not need to attend a concert, or to listen to a music player, to hear their song. It is free and available for all to enjoy. It is Mother Nature's gift to us and other creatures. Thank you, My Feathered Friends!
