Alone, Alone, All, All Alone

Alone, alone, all, all alone,
Alone in my little retreat
Not a soul around to disturb
My soul in ecstasy
Enjoying solitude to the fullest
In a company of one.

Alone, alone, all, all alone,
Alone in my little haven
Not a soul around to interrupt
My soul in earnest
With solitude as company
In a company of one.

Alone, alone, all, all alone

I thank the Lord
For that shanty of a sanctuary
Where I feel most comfortable and tranquil,
With solitude as company
In a company of one.

I live in solitude in the country and noticed how the monotony of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind.
Charles Dickens

Alone but Not Lonely

I’ve discovered how terrific my own company is.
I’m delighted that I’ve been able to take the time to be alone, 
I’ve found that being alone doesn’t always mean being lonely
I can discover my creativity and my heartfelt feelings
And enjoy the calm and quiet peace, deep inside me.

Loneliness is the way by which destiny endeavours to lead man to himself.
Herman Hesse


All Quiet on the Net

Nothing  -  nothing and nothing from a friend
In the Blue Nowhere
Except for mail from others,
And some spam or common re-runs.

Well, just endure the total silence from that friend
In the Blue Nowhere,
And enjoy doing other things
Like reading, shopping or playing sports instead.

Nothing is predestined. The obstacles of your past can become the gateways that lead to new beginnings.
Ralph Burn

A Sudden Lament

I came to a UK alumni reunion,
And I found myself, one very early morning
Lying on a solitary beach
With no one around
As everyone was still in bed.

Watching white horses racing towards the shore,
And listening to the pounding of waves,
I was suddenly thrown into a melancholy mood

When I thought of my halcyon days in the UK
I couldn't help it, but shed some tears.

I cried for the lost years
At my alma mater in the UK
Where I found myself being overwhelmed by an unrequited love
Totally unable or reluctant to seek the arms of another
To enjoy the carefree days of my youth.

I cried at first...and then, it was such a beautiful day, that I forgot to be unhappy.
