A hermit I AM
Alone I am damned
BUT alone is how I like to be
Afraid of the wives
away from human lives
ALONE, so just let me be
At home I will stay
All of the day
I NEVER want to go out
BUT outside I see
The flowers and the tree
And the animals bound about
So ALONE I will be
but not quite as you see
I’m HAPPY, so just LET ME BE.

Hi Ted, I enjoyed reading the poem. I feel that it would be better to but this in the Creative Writing section then the Rant House, so I moved it, hope you don’t mind.
Your poem has rhythm. I don’t often see that in poems. Solitude is near and dear to my heart also.
