Poem Artwork


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Almitra said," You would know the secret of Death.
But how shall you find it unless you seek it in the heart of life?
The owl whose night bound eyes are blind unto the day
cannot unveil the mystery of light.
If you would indeed behold the spirit of death,
open your heart wide unto the body of life....
for life and earth are one,
even as the river and the sea are one"


As wide as the ocean
As high as the Himilayas
As vast as the heavens
This is my freedom to run

To live with my freedom
Is to run in the open
Climb to the top
Soar into infinity

Love with a fullness
Be free to choose
Echo into the great divide
Fly with the Eagles

Live life to the fullness...
Stop for the smallest detail
Open your heart
Live in a positive nature

Harmony will be your gift
In living life
Fearless in dying
Catapulting into heaven

No tears or crying...

You've done it all...

Without being judgemental.

a true poem of a liberated spirit ... by ending the poem, "without being judgmental" consolidates the poem as well makes an extremely important point: being judgmental devolves the spirit, precluding its progression as well as deevolving the planetary psyche ..

Your words are validation of what I believe with heart and all of it. How you reach out and get just the right words and phrase, makes me ga-ga, girl ! ! ! I like particularly, the part of not being afraid of death.
I certainly am not, although nearer to it than many on AD. I've lived, and am living, such an incredible life, and there are no regret... only a hope that I might find, yet, someone to love in a most interesting and rewarding chapter. - Bill

Oh Susan, this touched me so today, it is really beautiful...I too love life to the fullest and love the smallest things that others would laugh about. Isn't it great not to be afraid to die because you know that you gave it your best? This truly comes from within and every line brings a positive outlook on life in general. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful writing.

You do it to me every damn time. When I read you I know I am about to embark of a sensuous journey, even though the poem may not be all that sensuous in nature . . . It is just your drawled-out style that doe it . . . This one did not disappoint . . . Almitra . . . Love that nsme . . .
