I wonder why at this particular time
Poetry has become a hobby of mine
Is it because I'm now on my own
Though when I am writing I don't feel alone
It's like I'm talking to an imaginary friend
Who will be here with me until my poem is penned
Then when I place it upon my New Era site
I gaze in amazement at the words that I write
No planning do I make it's all in my head
Not knowing what I have written until it I have read
The critical views I have received have all been kind
Staying with me for always in my poetic mind
I wish to thank you all for viewing my site
Now I would like to bid you a fond goodnight
