Never Been

 

All night with the owl,
Or calling early morning with the crow,
Midday butterflies at play,
Caterpillar on journey,
Seagull in a strange land,
Dragonfly showing opal wings,
Or my familiar dog
And coy cute cat friends,
At the zoo
-From exhibit to exhibit;
At the store
-A smile from a friend I’ve yet to meet;
Alone on the beach
-With the ocean and breeze;
Or the middle of the night…

And oh yes! –Solitary moth,
I remember you!
(I never forgot),

No,
I have never,
Even “in my darkest hour”,
Ever
Been
“alone.”
