Have you ever been alone when the sky is dark
and the clouds move on and there the full moon
shines and lights up the earth in a caressing glow.
Suddenly you feel minuscule unsure looking up at
the silent giant universe, you sink into nano mode
meaning your one billionth smaller in the scheme of life's flow.
Just for a few seconds you wonder whats it all about,
where you fit in this humungus puzzle of endless space
as the moon draws your mind far into space.
The answer comes quickly...'What are you doing? '
The husband is landed he puts the lid back on the garbage can
and makes one step for man which to go back inside his home he ran!
It's a lovely poem in deed. Though it was for a small spell, the poet did not only gave a feeling of loneliness but the gave the feeling of recognizing self as how small you are in comparison to this huge unbound universe! ! Loved it.
Beautiful imagination on being alone. To experience the beauty of nature bit by bit one has to be alone, as thought travel too far but we don't get enough time to capture those wonderful moments. Loved reading it. Thanks for sharing.
I love this poem. A short reflection on the vastness of the universe interrupted, as so often happens, by a call. We have to be alone to reflect on the things around us. Once we reflect and think about the world we are alone but not in solitude. Moments of being alone can be so enjoyable but then a return to the warmth of our family is often what we need and makes our life complete.

What a feeling it is to walk out to the night sky with peace and the pure wonder and beauty of nature. We don't get to appreciate it enough. Great title too. Thank you Ken
