Enjoying my own company

Olivia.

Sat here alone but I don’t mind

It gives me time to just be me

No talking

Not much thinking

Just sat on this bench enjoying my own company

 

I like this time to just be still

My time alone where I can chill

I Don’t have to entertain or make small talk

Just eating my lunch that I just bought

Thinking how much I enjoy my own company

 

People walk past and and I give a quick smile

I wonder where they’re off to for a little while

The snowdrops sprouting say hello to me

As I sit quietly enjoying my own company

 

I like my time when I just potter about

I’m sure I will continue to do this no doubt

Taking in my surroundings and going to the places i choose

This new found love for quiet I don’t want to loose

I think these things sat beneath this beautiful tree

Here content in my own company.

              You describe such a wonderful life that I enjoy as well, especially when I walk with My River.

                Thank you. Maybe I should have a walk by the river and see if I am inspired. X

                'The snowdrops sprouting say hello to me
                As I sit quietly enjoying my own company'

                'This new found love for quiet I don’t want to loose
                I think these things sat beneath this beautiful tree
                Here content in my own company.'..
                what a wonderfully worded depiction of self-mined tranquillity, so reassuringly comforting
                a great write dear poet!
                thank you for sharing
