DISMISSING THE SUN by Theresa F Koch Wednesday, December 22, 2004 Rated "G" by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan Written, 21st March 2001. Photograph taken by, Theresa Koch

Terminating or dismissing the sun I sit down with pen in hand Melting into the natural landscape My poem has now began Words spill out on paper what Sets before my third eyes view That is what I�ll talk about That is what I now share with you Energy around me electrical to feel Makes me close my eyes Making my heart feel more surreal Why the muse takes over me Then all around grows dim Pen on the paper flies Natures done its job again Then pick up my camera And take a picture of the view Looking down at what I wrote To take this home and give it to you That�s the way I write it seems My muse within the earth That�s the way my poems begin The way my photos give birth Drawing from GODS creation My inspiration starts Watching Mother Nature Then talking about their Beautifully done art

We are treated to the most elaborate sensual and cerebral feasts every minute of every day when we look at the natural world around us - for free!! Thank you for this reminder NOT to take this for granted - even if it is priceless yet without cost. Beautiful sentiments and photograph. TY Kate xx

The most vivid stanzas were the poems "front and back gates" (i.e. first and final stanzas.) "Dismiss the sun" shows that we can command the attitude we have in any moment, just as we can call the sun forth in our minds when clouds envelope our lives with trials. I appreciated your sharing this Theresa, blessin's and happy holiday times to you, cynth'ya lewis reed
