Sweet sweet solitude
I shall compose an ode to thee
For thru so many years
My faithful companion you have been
I relished every moment
Of undivided bliss
What joy have you provided
You are a friend
I never want to miss
When others complain of issues and fights
That make their relationships seem a sad plight
I just frown and shake my head
We can recall no such occasion
There is no drama, no regret
We just get along – in times of stress and on vacation
So let’s have a toast
To us and this moment
May it be undisturbed
As I drink and enjoy it
