A lonely soul
by
Clarius Ugwuoha
A lonely soul
Lonely in a crowd
lonely in the deepest reach
Of the heart.
All day long
By myself I sit
In the sepulchral silence
Of the orange tree
Filled with nostalgia for a
Bygone world.
It shines not here
The tears drop
like rain from the skies.
Bright-feathered sky
Lift my thoughts high in the air!
little birds which coo
In the trees,
Bring me warmth and the glow
Of the skies
I am very lonely here!
