Quality Time — for me

a poem

This year
I promised to make time
to connect with others,
an intentional step
towards ensuring that
physical distancing
did not eradicate
emotional closeness.

but what I learned
is that the other side of this coin
is also the importance
of making time
to be genuinely be alone,
to spend quality time with yourself
to think, to create, to be
without the influence of others.
