Eternal Loner

Surrounded by a sea of yellow,

Wishing for the darkness to fade.

I am nothing but a Sunflower,

For the Sun I have to forever wait.



Perched above a bough on a tree,

Gazing with blank eyes going wide.

I am nothing but a Night owl,

For the Night I have to forever wait.



Standing erect on one leg,

Waiting for the water to wade.

I am nothing but a hungry Crane,

For Food I have to forever wait.



All alone in the golden field,

Yearning for the color of jade.

I am nothing but a Solitary Reaper,

I have to forever wait,

I have to forever wait.




P.S: The use of Solitary Reaper is a mere reference to Sir Wordsworth's famous composition that goes with the same name.
