Handle with Care

Posted on February 21, 2016 by Suzanne

You can’t manhandle poetry.

These things take time.

I see my reflection.

No need to eat.

Words are my sustenance.

Seasons

Posted on February 21, 2016 by Suzanne

I find my voice returning on the wings of a dove.

In the sunlit dance on a crystal lake.

In the soft curves my feminine body takes.

In a beating heart

never alone.

Gentle words

returning home.

Beauty

I saw the angel in my soul, and I set her free.

The inspiration for my poem comes from a favorite quote by Michelangelo ~

 “I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.”

Stages

he doesn’t play on the playground anymore.

he plays on the computer, in his bedroom behind a closed door.

I check e-mail on my cell phone, standing in the kitchen, thinking –

these days, it seems,

we’re all hiding behind screens.

Alone

He doesn’t come home anymore.

It’s three in the morning

and I feel like crying.

Ecstasy

I went to see The Floozies tonight!  Best thing ever!!!

Funk is alive and well in the world because of The Floozies!!!  The funk flowed through my body and soul on the dance floor.

Why people take drugs, I have not idea, when you have music of this caliber to get you high!!!

Think I had a musicgasm!!!  The energy of the band and the audience was out of this world!

I don’t know how I can go back to life as normal, after that experience!!!  Guess I will go ahead and die now.  Life’s been good.

(There was the added bonus of a hot young football player showing me some special attention on the dance floor, for a little while.  Like icing on the already unbelievably delicious cake!  Got to have my cake and eat it too tonight!!!  I can still smell his cologne…nice lingering effect.)
