Oh, here I am
Alone at last
Just me, the rain
Present and past
I sit by the window
And start to write away
I’m all cosy inside
On this grizzly, grey day
The silence is perfect
Drips are all that I hear
Settling into puddles
Nature’s very own tears
I relish the quiet
To be all by myself
To be in the moment
Just so good for my health
Looking out through the pane
I can see the willow tree
Bows majestically
Saying hello to me
A spider is stuck
Halfway down the wall
It’s stillness stills me
Doesn’t let me fall
The glass lamp shines down
My laptop gives light
The unlit fire waits
Until day is night
The garden fuschia sways
I feel like I should too
But how blissful it is
Until I do need to
