Sarah’s Shadow – Silhouette Shines Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

You said
in riches vault cruel
Cave of Mammon
you did dwell.
I said
I’ve been there
more than once
as well.

You said
you love poetry
creativity
and fine art.
I said
that’s total
embodiment
of my heart.


You spoke
with wisdom
impressive theory
I too believe.
I spoke
with love
of inspirational wonder
I conceive.

You spoke
of getting together
for a cup of coffee.
I spoke of joy
in such greeting when
we have time free.
Time has a complex ploy
for us time free will ever be.
