A halt, a stop
Then dream away
A smile, a tear
And a thought astray
Cheerful note, confusion's bout
And nostalgia of yesterday!
Surmounting fears for near and dear
Miles apart yet a call away
Robust plans to sail clear
Anything eliciting dismay
Charming yet alarming are
Mundane ways of Solitude's disarray!!

Solitude....in one word beautiful! a totally different style from all your other works!
I am not sure if you know a telugu poet by name Sri-Sri! The style of this poem is quite close to his one of his works called 'I'(I guess!!!) in Maha Prasthanam(which means great journey) and one of my all-time favs!!
Great expression with the fewest words! Now I get it! I always wondered why all the epics are written in slokas! So that they could be expanded beyond the horizon of one's own interpretation for greater good of everyone else!!
Great one!!!
i thought you were the solitary reaper!

I agree... Solitude is indeed charming... yet only if the person is mature enough can it remain so.. otherwise it becomes alarming..
They say.. man is a social animal; I guess as long as man remains an 'animal' he remains social.. :D
perhaps rhyming forces things... try free verse as well
