The extrovert, whose daily life
Seems naught but dull routine
Will seek adventure when they can
Amidst a crowded scene
For people give them energy
That work just drains away:
And so they need excitement
When they get a holiday
But me, I am an introvert
And people make me tired;
It’s not that I don’t like them
It is just the way I’m wired
So when I get a holiday
From busy working life
I will go someplace peaceful
By myself, or with my wife
For yes — I do like travelling
But don’t like hue-and-cry:
I like to sit and watch the world
Just watch it
Going by
(Inspired by this prompt.)
To share is human:
I completely relate to this!

I love those times when I’d just sit next to my hubby too, in our back garden and watch the stars.
