Poem: Time Alone
Other inspirational poems by CrisSp~
- Happiness from Masterpiece to Masterpeace
This unique masterpiece was created to pave away sadness and emptiness due to life's tremendous drama. Finished on a canvas, this work of art gives me great pleasure in that joyful face and glorious silent voice that says, life is short. Enjoy it. - A More Express Life -
There’s more to life than dappling leaves. Be grateful with your lots and be wise.
Don’t get me wrong
I’d love to spend time with you
Walk along and stroll the park
Or maybe roam around the mall
Sit down and talk
In our local coffee shop
But today my friend
I’d like to be alone
Doesn’t mean I don’t like you anymore
I just want to enjoy me
Even if it means talking to myself
I’d sing my favorite lullaby
I’d dance to the rhythm of my existence
I’d walk alone, have fun in the sun
And when I get tired of roaming alone
I’d sit and sip a nice cup of tea
Enjoy a slice of cake by myself
Stop for a while and think back
How swiftly time had gone by
The memories of the past
That binds me still
The times of my life
Where did it go?
Today I’d like my time alone
Contemplate and meditate
With fervent prayers of hope
For this tired soul to find its way home.
Spending some time alone~
Do you believe it's important to spend some time alone?

Oscarlites: Thank you for sharing your experience and good thoughts. Throughout the course of my life, I've learned to appreciate and value my time-alone. It is, as you said to reset and refresh our whole being. Life could be very stressful and so, some time alone is precious. Thanks again for gracing my page.
I think everyone has their own "Alone" island or plan or regimen. From when I was a child, my mother sang an old hymn, "I just steal away somewhere, (and pray)". but the message that it taught me was sometimes no one on (earth at least) can help our dilemma or moments of disillusionment with others, with programs, with relationships, and other things I can't think of! good thoughts!!!!. make some alone time and simply reset: thanks!

Alone time is something that I look forward to. I love my big family, but time alone is precious. After too much time alone, I often feel something missing in my life--family! That's when I fill up a bag of healthful treats and happy gifts and dash off to see the grandchildren. After a few hours of wonderment and exhaustion, I feel thankful that I can visit and leave when I get ready. Life is lovely and so is this nice poem! Thanks for sharing.
A very beautiful one, thank you for sharing this one. Votes up and shared.
I like to spend time alone, especially at the beach by water's edge. And I like driving in my car alone, not having to pay attention to anyone else, going where I want to go, when I want to, with the radio loud....
:)
Good One! Sharing and voting up!

Wow.....Awesome...I'm completely in awe. This is a brilliant write..It's better to be alone and keep your dignity than to be in a relationship where you always sacrifice your self respect..One ,after all,should enjoy every passing moments with himself and live for what he thinks is right.Voted up

I can't think of anything better than time alone to reflect upon life's meaning. Very nicely said.
Absolutely love this, CrisSp. We must have time to reflect, absorb and process the world. It is sacred. Beautiful words to honor our solitude.
A wonderful piece of poetry, God bless.
Voted it up and awesome...we all need that alone time in our lives, at one point or another. Even if it's to help us heal, or reflect on that which makes us whole and ready again to be around others.

Very well said, Cris. Everyone needs time alone periodically. Quiet times of reflection or with no thoughts at all. Time in the sun.
That was quite an amazing poem. and it had me thinking how much time trully has passed. nice work CrisSp. as you always do. :0 I voted up for ya. :)
I. White
Beautiful and contemplative work here, and true as well. We all time with just ourselves.
Well said. Have you read The book about introverts called The Power of Quiet In A World That Won't Stop Talking? You might like it.
Time alone is good if you choose to be alone and everything in life requires limits
*whistle*:-)
CrisSP....you got it right..alone time is necessary for all of us..to sort/think/hash/figure out who, what and where we are going on our path of life...this is the best way to handle stress and strife in our life...
Hi, CrisSp. Hope you'll find time to listen to this.
You have a very beautiful hub. Thank you for sharing.
Great hub! I find alone time at least once a day, it helps me recharge! :)
I think we all need that time--well said!
Pretty accurate for all of us, I think. Great hub!
I do this on a daily basis at the lake. I need that recharge after that rough work day, so that is what gets me through. Down time can be so important.
I know where you are coming from.....very well said:-))
Well said and meaningful - I identify. Time alone is important. Now and then I just need time to connect and be who I am meant to be. Thank you. Up and beautiful.
Well said, thank you for sharing. Jamie
Very nice, CrisSp, well-said. Alone time is sacred. Up and useful.
We just had a beautiful morning stroll at the Bluffs and along the beach and now, I am spending time alone watching and listening to Jesus Christ Superstar both from the movie and Broadway. The songs and expressions touch me so deeply.
Happy Easter to you Cris and family! ~Tess
You said it perfectly. I need alone time...so does Bev...and I believe it makes us better people. Beautifully written, Cris.
Happy Easter weekend to you my friend.
