Feels Good


It feels good

To be

All alone

And be lonely

Too

It feels good

To be

So tired, so bored

And cold

Again

Weather change

It feels good

To see grey clouds

Coming home

The expected Fall

It feels good too

Having

nothing to do

just couching here

yawning there

lounging

under blankets

It feels so good

to smell

the wet soil

not to hear a voice

It feels great

to be awake

be aware

of this bare

thinking.

I love this. I can sense all that you convey here. I miss the fall weather so much. Please continue to enjoy it for me.

I like it when the weather changes, which it has only barely begun to do here, but having lost at love again I am not on good terms with alone at the moment.

Still, as always, I enjoyed your poem, Dulce. :-)

Unless I have suffered some recent traumatic experience (loss of a lover, like 'Blossom--SO sorry and sad for you), I believe that it is a sign of good mental health to find happiness in solitude and I do NOT mean "isolation"--there is a difference --grin!

I forgot: LOVE your words, the way you communicate so well with so few of them. Just 'lovely'! (I know, that's a "girl" word--lovely.)

I am thinking, that it is good to feel this way sometimes too.
You say such well.

Oh, that sweet calm and laziness when the Autumn comes. I agree with everything... Even the cold is mild... There. Here, it is quite bone-breaking. I didn't know those moments of quietness ever since I arrived. I think I don't know how to stop and relax any more. Some day...

the changing of the seasons does feel good! we are kind-of in transition now.

i have tried to put your award on the side of my blog, but i can't seem to get it in, without erasing something. i am working on the situation, please be patient -- i'm a little brain dead right now. lol

great post!

smiles,

You do say it so beautifully, Dulce. I too love my solitary moments. I thrive on them.
