Loneliness
By Mary Oliver
I too have known loneliness.
I too have known what it is to feel
misunderstood,
rejeccted, and suddenly
not at all beautiful.
Oh, mother earth,
your comfort is great, your arms never withhold.
It has saved my life to know this.
Your rivers flowing, your roses opening in the morning.
Oh, motions of tenderness!
