Cool Mellow It’s cool to be alone with my thoughts Once the hectic pace of every day life Stops Actually it’s more like a pause A pause for the cause of solitude Solitude that’s challenging If not impossible to snare When my thoughts are accompanied By so many other distractions The vicissitudes of life The kids The job The bills The schedules The responsibilities But I’ve snared it now Cause I’ve paused for the cause of solitude Serenity Stillness In this quiet place With a gentle breeze Against my face The blades of grass Peeking through my toes The pines swaying gently above With not a soul in sight I lay under a cloudless sky On a warm august afternoon Alone with my thoughts Btb august 2006

Alone With My Thoughts
Cool Mellow It’s cool to be alone with my thoughts Once the hectic pace of every day life Stops Actually it’s more like a pause A pause for the cause of solitude Solitude that’s challenging If not impossible to snare When my thoughts are accompanied By so many other distractions The vicissitudes of life The kids The job The bills The schedules The responsibilities But I’ve snared it now Cause I’ve paused for the cause of solitude Serenity Stillness In this quiet place With a gentle breeze Against my face The blades of grass Peeking through my toes The pines swaying gently above With not a soul in sight I lay under a cloudless sky On a warm august afternoon Alone with my thoughts Btb august 2006
