Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Comment from LisaMay
I looked at all the recently announced winners of the 3-line poem contest and yours was the one I liked the most. It spoke of a self-sufficiency that brings tranquility and satisfaction, which no doubt writing poetry does for you. The photo of the beautiful white heron emphasises your poem nicely.

Thank you so much for the encouraging feedback!
Comment from Y. M. Roger
Oh, this is SOOO true, June -- there are the times when we all need some time to ourselves, but when it is mandated, too many little things 'eat at us' ... our mind finds troubles that aren't there.... we have to have HOPE!! ;)
Thanx for sharing and sorry I'm so far behind! ;) Yvette

Comment from Janice Canerdy
You have made excellent use of all of your syllables in this very timely poem. Yes, solitude can be wonderful--for a while and when it's only by choice. Then we can get pretty lonely--like NOW!

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written three-line poem about solitude by choice is usually a peaceful lifestyle without a partner. The ones who likes to have a partner around can become extremely lonely.

Very nice three line poem with a lovely picture to illustrate it. This is true. If you choose to be alone you feel comfortable and soothed by your choice but if you prefer to be with people solitude can cause great loneliness.

Comment from Mary Kay Bonfante
Very poignant poem that reads very much like a proverb. Its truth is indisputable. The photo of the bird that appears withdrawn, possibly cold, damp, and inward-looking, drives home the message of the poem very well.

Comment from Kellie Scranton
So very insightful, and so very true during this insane time in the world. I love the first line, because I am someone who gives a ton of my energy and absorbs others energy. So that solitude is so sacred to me when I choose it. Loneliness is a sad thing. Your poem described such contrast to both feelings, in a beautifully constructed way. Xo-kellie
