A Man Alone.

Goldfinch60



He sits there alone, 

Alone at the garden table 

Drinking his pint of beer 

And looking out at the blue, blue sea. 

He looks back to the hotel 

Sees me sitting at my table, 

And he smiles at me. 

He sits there alone, 

A man on his own 

But he is obviously happy, 

Happy in his own mind, 

His own mind and body.

    Nice nice, and I remember seeing that video on TV I'm sure. A long long long time ago.

      You can be alone all by yourself, and you can be alone in a crowded room. But when you're alone with your love, everything else is out of focus. Excellent write Andy. 😉

        That's the key, happy; whether solitarily or in company!
