I like this. I was the same way. I was quiet and painfully shy and very unsociable and very withdrawn. I like the way you inform the reader about your life. I can see myself in some of this. Great job and well done.

Comment from Debbie Pope
Your poetry is powerful because it comes from the heart. I, Alone seems a fitting description for your life. That is so sad, but at the same time, it is encouraging. You seem to manage your life very well. Personally, I would be proud if I were you.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
There is sadness in these words and the emotion here is of such loneliness. I am sorry that your life has brought this sadness and we cannot change our personality, but we can change our attitude to life, you evoked emotion in me, love Dolly x

This poem is quite sad in nature, however quite revealing intimately as well. Very nice work here. Your words paint a very vivd picture in my mind. Good luck and thank you for sharing.

Comment from Roxanna Andrews
Oh, I do hope things are much better now. You write lovely things, this is well done with much expression. I too was shy and didn't have many friends. My report card said I played alone but mom didn't seem to be worried. I didn't mind it though. Maybe I was a weird kid. I have many friends now, wonderful friends so I hope you do to. Don't be alone. I would be happy to be a friend.

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written heartfelt poem. Our dreams are to have our own family that we can look after when we are grown up and hope to make our children and look after husband the best we can.

I am sorry you had this experience. Seems God blessed you with the uncanny ability to write beautifully and reach many more poet friends than you ever thought possible back when you and your doll sat alone. Your words touch me.

Dear Karenina, Thank you for your comments and review. It's true, I do have a lot of friends on Fan Story now. Dove

Funny, isn't it, how when you surround yourself with people of similar interests, friendships blossom!

Yes Karenina, friendships blossom like the spring which I hope will soon get here (in New England)! Dove

Amen!
Comment from LIJ Red
Only child on an isolated farm, I was forced to be a loner. I changed all that when I grew up but when I grew old, deaths brought the loneliness back. I was ready for it.
An excellent autobiographical poem.
