Soaring on wings of the endless dawn
Skimming the earth...only as pawns
Before we know it...
In no time at all
We'll deserve what we have
With no where to fall
Let favorite illusions be as they must
Fleeting they come
As going they rust
We've visited before
Devored it all
Savored the taste and just had a ball
Together as friends
Escorting our muse
Shared ageless beauty and boundless reviews
Dearest of hearts and ageless ambitions
Hold me quick...fast
Keep tight this transition
Tomorrow will come and in all our haste
The sunset will blossom with no after taste
Then just as the midnight collapses around us
Our daydreams balloon ...
Our tears become rusted
Our hearts will regain what beat it remembers
As dawn brings new drama to dying old embers
And daylight reminds us that living is pain
Until nighttime commits us to travel again.
" To everything there is a season"...you said it all here Susan in your own stylish way...life comes full circle and touches everyone who reads this artistic and beautifully organized piece. Never let life pass you by...grab it while you can. Can I go with you?
Love,
Taylor
Wonderful poetry, Susan! Tight and strong and with your ready dose of coool images and unique concepts: "The sunset will blossom with no after-taste" - love that! You are a Master poetry Chef who knows EXACTLY what to leave out and what to put in to create the tastiest delicacies... leaving the reader satisfied and hungry at the same time. Must be lunchtime... :)) TY Kate xx
There is an incredible measure of beauty behind the ugliness. It is hard to see at times, but it is there nevertheless waiting for the patient and faithful.

You show us the magnitude and brevity of life in one sweeping movement of well juxtapositioned words..
When all is said and done, life is for living, and you must live it to the full , no wasting time in self defeating tears...;)

THIS is so dramatic, Susan, and the fact that every damn word of it is so in-your-face with the reality of life and death and all that goes on in between. Reading it I had a funny feeling that it was being written for me. That is the beauty of this poem, it affects the reader in in personal way. GREAT GOING!

You have a powerful diffrent muse that truly helps the reader to see in dimensions of the heart..Your light is bright!
From the Caribbean Sea to Machu Picchu in Peru, and from birds to flowers and butterflies, Reflections and Treasured Wonders offers a collection of images gathered from around the world.
In "A Touch of Your Presence" are words that would inspire, encourage and strengthen one's soul when faced with challenges and difficulties and to know the awesomeness of God's power.
