Image: A solitary melon (here)
Growing melon left
alone akin to hermit
to fend for himself
Sheltered in lone hut
Today was another day
Nature's salvation
Provided setting
for prolific writings passed
down unselfishly
Note: Following Basho's definition of 'seclusion' a kind
'of estrangement from the world, living in solitude' - Chev
For Chev's CARPE DIEM #729 - growing melons
As a solitary type, this speaks to me. Thanks

ReplyDeleteHank,
ReplyDeleteSeclusion may have been the saviour for that lone melon, at least for now. Nicely hidden from hungry eyes...
