Twin Cinquains - Loneliness / Solitude Poem by Valsa George

Loneliness and solitude clearly defined in the poem. First occurs unwillingly and the second is self inflicted. Beautifully presented. Thank you.

Loneliness and solitude can be refreshing and give you time to think but is bad for you if that is all life has to offer.

very well-defined...one can feel lonely among many, like Bacon says in his essay: in the absence of friend faces are but a gallery of pictures and their talk is just like the sound of tinkling cymbals...and the world is but a wilderness... while the state of solitude has an attitude of tranquility, enjoying himself/herself like the Solitary Reaper, lost and happy in her work, singing to herself...this solitude is the most wanted state in Russell's philosophy also, he offers it as a remedy for many of our social ills, as he diagnosed that we have lost the happiness as we have lost the solitude! ! ! thanks for the beautiful poem Valsa ji! ! !

Clearly defined-well done

Very good description of loneliness and solitude. You would make Webster (dictionary) very proud. Too much of the former is not so good. Too little of the latter it really does matter. An excellent write.

Brilliantly written. Thank u, dear poetess. anjandev roy.

This Twin Cinquains beautifully and brilliantly expresses your thoughts about loneliness and solitude. We do not welcome loneliness but this is a guest to whom do not welcome but it comes. Gentle wafting into calmness this solitude brings and gives us bliss. A brilliant poem is excellently penned...10

Lonlyness and solitude Like mist and clouds mingle and move apart. Light of clarity we must keep. Thanks for bringing the clarity. Here is my question....am I just thinking of you or really missing you and your your poetry?

loneliness and solitude- appear to be one and same; but a gulf of difference; loneliness- no one desires; solitude- very difficult to get a moment to ourselves! beautifully brought out! we should aspire for solitude; others should ensure that we are not lonely!

Valsa, if there was ever any doubt between the two, you've just wiped it clean. Excellent write!
