Is it me or are all poets lonely
Or seek solitude or like silence
To bring the best out of themselves
Listening to the wind tell tales.

I have a favourite place to go
To let the imagination loose and free
Where ideas wash over you
Like long summer shadows late in the evening.

Yes. I think we all crave loneliness
To keep our sanity poets are a lonely bunch
But social amongst ourselves
Strange really as we
Describe the world others seldom see.

Craig Anderson
