Loneliness Poem by Lee Boueri

Loneliness

Rating: 5.0


A ticking of clock

A singing bird

A passing car

A moment of silence.


Patients fills the air

Hear that?

Perhaps another songbird

Perhaps the November wind creaking the unoiled gate,

resting like a stretched sail on a sea of green grass,

begging to be moved by a summer breeze.

A sombre moment to amplify the theatre of imagination

A summer breeze will Open flood gates

and release a hundred thoughts

Unable to Focus on one.

A beckoning keyboard

Promising a world of possibilities

Of like minded finds

Pan handling for a reply,

A voice in the digital wilderness

A keyboard stroke to relieve the loneliness

Settling for a like

A sign of the times.

Plenty of telling hearing images accentuate the feeling of loneliness. Very skilled. 'A beckoning keyboard'- it would be hard to resist playing this tremendous instrument.

Thank you for your kind words. I did indeed read your " When in Loneliness Think of Me." and left a comment. I don't know anyone named Josh but Sydney is a big city (Population 5 million) .
