I like your creative expressive poem about silence and being alone. The metaphor of a symphony for the sounds of life is a good one...except for that car horn that barked! What an interruption. I was attracted to your poem by the first two lines..Alone. A miracle. I wanted to put an exclamation point after that miracle. I live in a house with three loud boys, so when I think, Alone...A miracle...I'm either in the bathroom...or everyone is at school...otherwise, I am never alone, and I am always being hunted down by someone! :) . But here in this poem, I imagine alone refers to alone and quiet in a loud bustling city..maybe Jersey? The whole poem is beautiful and expressive, but then you pulled in humor and fun at the end. I enjoyed this! :)

Like a fine wine... Soothing and serene with an inspired twist on the back end. Lovely!

Love the seaside imagery of this piece, a soothing symphony of solitude. -chuck

Something about the flow of this piece just caught me and pulled me along. A grand bit of craft Lori.
