Yes, finding solitude even as we quarantine and isolate is not always easy! I am attempting to establish a routine of meditation, however brief, each morning to center myself and put the ABCs at bay for a few minutes.Chris Margocshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18261261993571716230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7260969528787608869.post-39647560085501138262020-10-26T05:41:24.223-05:002020-10-26T05:41:24.223-05:00Thanks for the mention of similarity.

In a global sense, I am now wondering what other writers and thinkers might possibly include in such a piece. Your words have evoked much to ponder for me.

I grew up on that music and marked his passing as well (hearing the guitar and familiar lyrics returning from long ago). Your poem is indeed a nice, orderly collection of everything that zips through our minds these days, in a matter of nanoseconds. Alphabet soup, for sure. No wonder we're tired!
