Thursday Poets’ Rally Week 9The Perfect Poet Award
http://jingleyanqiu.wordpress.com/2010/03/12/thursday-poets-rally-week-9-the-perfect- poet-award/
When I have the blues
When darkness falls
I love to stay alone
In my world of fantasy
My abode of ecstasy.
I love to stay alone
Digging in my inner-self
Rummaging my feelings and thoughts
Pondering my deeds and faults.
I love to stay alone
Fantasizing, Daydreaming.
Building castles in the air
Castles Born of hope or despair.
I love to stay alone
drawing rosy prospects
and dreams so sweet
on bleak-looking sheets.
I love to stay alone
Reading Ancient myths
and tales of woe,
Reading don Quixote
Fighting an Invisible foe.
I love to stay alone
Writing about my inner self
About my feelings and thoughts.
Writing about my fantasies and dreams
About my castles built in the air
Castles born of hope or despair .
Writing about my personal woes
About my fears and invisible foes .

For nomination, my vote goes to a blogger whose poetry I highly appreciate

Solitude ! it is one of the best companions I ever had!! .. your poem captures the image beautifully 🙂 . And thanks for your comments on my blog. They are really encouraging
In my caldren
In my vile
I stand alone
At peace awhile
My dance is stark
My quest shrieks long
Alone in my dark
While I heed ahead strong
The white embarks sight
The black envy intrigue
As day sleeks back to night
My fear folds frozen fatigue
There could be some wisdom
There is always a known
In sight of life’s kingdom
I’ll search for it ALONE
Thanks for your comments

I agree with Mitchell – my fave line is “Reading don Quixote, fighting an invisible foe”. Sometimes being alone with words – our own or others – is the best way to get over those blues.
I think that poem sums up my life. It was very nice.
this is so powerful
Congrats on you award, You deserve it that you do. Great Job
I love to stay alone as well,
that’s the time for you to discover your potential in writings…
incredibly done!

Wow! Your thoughts are matching with mine sir.I love to stay alone……
I am so impressed.Can’t express my self in words.
I absolutley love the title of this. Beautifully written. I think when we’re feeling down, we need to be alone to work through it and be able to welcome other to be with us.
Beautifully said!
