    Warm Solitude

     Rain pours outside my soul.
    And looking out the window
    I feel alone and afloat.

    The world outside is flooding!
    An ocean of love, uncertainty and birth
    Swirling in triumphant dance.

    It rains outside my soul.
    And I snuggle beneath my blanket,
    the fire crackling in its hearth.

    A heavy book is open;
    A steaming mug in hand.
    I'm in a ship
    Cast on the sea,
    While it rains outside my window.

    LOL! :) I did too.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
