Weekly Prompts Wednesday Challenge Quiet Places from GC & SueW
This Wednesday’s Challenge on partner Susan and my site is QUIET PLACES.
Have you ever noticed that no matter how gregarious and people-oriented a person happens to be we all seek a quiet spot for ourselves away from the roar and confusion of friends, family and co-workers?
This week you are invited to tell us a tale or two or show us your own secret refuge from reality. A place that always seems to help calm your jangled nerves and offers a temporary respite from the everyday pressures of living.
As always The challenge is flexible, so please interpret in any way you wish – Words, Pictures, Poetry or Rhyme.

There is a quiet place where I love to sit
Alone with my company and with my thoughts
Away from the hustle-bustle of the busy life
A few precious moments of peace and quiet
It’s not that I am unhappy in the company of people
But there are times that I prefer my own company
So I retreat to a quiet place to be alone with my thoughts

Sadje, I’ve just read your poem here, https://equishops.com/2021/10/10/weekly-prompts-weekend-challenge-quiet-places/. published after yours. Is someone taking your work?

Thanks Sue. They did inform me about sharing and they also kept my name and hashtag. So I think it’s okay. I’m grateful for your kind concern.

Alarm bells always ring when something appears as a copy instead of a re-blog, especially as there was little reference to you.
I commented on the poem and then thought how similar it was to one I’d just read! Then the penny dropped, duh… it was yours! 🙂

You’re right it does rings alarm bells. But they did mention that they are sharing my poem.

I need times of quiet solitude to remain sane in what often seems to be an insane world.
