Analysis of Solitude



Sitting in a boat on quiet waters,
rod in hand.
All is silent as no one is
around for miles.
Thus am I here in blissful
solitude.
Suddenly I feel a tug on the
line and solitude disappears
as I reel in a fish.
hell, I can have solitude any
time, I’d rather have a fish
on the line.
