Ecstasy of Solitude!
I wandered through lonely trees
Brimmed with intense joy;
A joy of being my own,
A joy of solitude in my soul.
Assured to sit under the lonely trees
Engrossed in jocund company of a leaf;
Relishing the cold breeze which affects my soul
Delighting in the solitariness of my own.
Forever I wanna be with lonely trees
Possessing the kingdom of isolation;
Amending the feeling of desolation
Which only surrounds with elation
Eventually my heart with pleasure fills
And dances with the rhythm of a falling leaf.
-Ruth Anthony.
