Gentle Solitude
/I meditate in silence
Resting upon my bed
Recalling faces I have seen
Colleagues I toiled with
Friends, consorted
Lovers, impassioned
Mourners, consoled
Murmured echoes of memories
Whisper in the corners of my lair
Muffled by the accumulated dust
Of time’s passage
And the gathering snows
Of approaching winter
All have passed before me
Ventured out ahead
Whilst I remain
Reflecting on the past
Awaiting reunion
Drifting in the embrace
Of gentle solitude
