I’m Not Alone
by
Kevin L Fairbrother
Alone now, for all the campers have departed
I sit by the campfire and watch it glow
I think about the many friends I’ve made
Whilst camping at the Reserve at Port Albert
……
The many stories that were told by the fires warmth
Will live in my memory, to be retold at night
For the nightfall is when you feel most alone
As the day time sounds just meld away
…..
The moon all full slowly rises to turn the night to day
As the winds bends and twist the trees around me
I hear the night-time sounds of the bush awaken
They comfort me, for I feel I’m not alone
…..
The night owl woo woo’s, the koala grunts deeply
The Kangaroo and Wallaby thump their tails upon the ground
As the stars burst forth in a brilliant twinkling array
I head for bed knowing, I am not alone
…..
With sadness I will soon move on from this place so peaceful
For my time here has rekindled my soul and spirit
For all to soon I will be amongst the traffic and lots of people
and stress and pressure will not allow me to feel alone
