Heres one I wrote myself...I dont think I have that many great poems in me,but even though I wrote this one myself...I do think its rather good....Its all about those qiute moments we all must have,when we are alone to ponder our lives events and deeds our regrets and Intentions to be a better kinder more thoughtful people and then oneday when we are old and the time for qiute solitary contemplation may be nearing its end ...Then what thoughts will we be left with ???

Lifes Lessons

It is only when you are alone
That truth draws its veil
And all your thoughts can reveal
All that is falsehood
And all that is real

To look back on your spent actions
To contemplate your deeds
And to summarise your considerations
Your thoughts for others
Solitude turns your lifes motions
Into tortuous fractions

Lonlieness's heated debate
In your own head
Aself contained discussion
Of all that is gone
Justice by ones own conscience
Is all there be to relate

Alone to think a lonely thought
Where only memories can Intrude
How one can think!
When clarity comes to the mind in silence
Lifes lessons flood back
Self taught
