ALONE TIME! <br />A place to free your mind, <br />Or to stay entwined <br />With the current stuff <br />That makes up your day... <br />ALONE TIME! <br />Except your thoughts are there <br />To push and pull, <br />Sometimes kind, <br />Sometimes cruel... <br />ALONE TIME! <br />Stay strong now! <br />CHIN UP! <br />HEAD UP! <br />SHOULDERS BACK! <br />BACK STRAIGHT! <br />Now you are a soldier <br />In your own space and time... <br />ALONE TIME! <br />SMILE NOW! <br />You've made it through... <br />And <br />If you can't be alone with yourself, <br />Who else would want to be alone with you? <br /> <br />3: 40 p.m. <br />March 16,2007<br /><br />Dorothy (Alves) Holmes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/alone-time/
