To Be or Not To Be

A little kingdom I possess,
Where thoughts and feelings dwell;
And very hard the task I find
Of governing it well.
~ Louisa May Alcott

...that more or less describes my situation!

~A Wise Man Said~

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
~ Aristotle

Staring into the distance

Nobody home

Only silence

Permeates the air

Slightest sounds

Startle me

Then recognising

My strange aloneness

I smile

Nobody home

 

December this year

Unlike any

No anticipation

Excitement

No thrill

What shall I buy?

For the little ones

Have I forgotten

To pack something

One week to go

I would have thought

And then I'll be Home

But this time round

All seems bleak

Nobody home
