When at yoga class, the instructor mentioned, this being lent, that everyone, Christian and non Christian alike, may like to take the opportunity to improve oneself. I thought that doing a bit a yoga every day would be good for me. It is something I have been wanting to do. I realized, as I wasted the rest of my day playing solitaire on the computer, that what I need to do is give up playing solitaire also.
I decided to write a poem about playing solitaire on the computer. It is called:
Solitaire
–
Solitaire, why do I play?
To keep me from a frown
When caught on a busy day,
And my mind won’t shut down?
–
Why do I find solace
In Klondike or Freecell?
Does it help time to pass
Causing thoughts not to dwell?
–
Is loneliness the why?
Playing a game or two?
That can’t be, says I
As I play, I ignore you!

Wow! I’m flattered! It makes me feel good when someone tells me they like what I write. I only recently started writing poetry. Well, it’s been over a year now, but that is recent to me. I can’t remember what got me started, but I am loving it!
