Suzy Kassem Poems

Everything
Turns,
Rotates,
Spins,
...

Great people will always be mocked by those
Who feel smaller than them.
A lion does not flinch at laughter coming from a hyena.
A gorilla does not budge from a banana thrown at it by a monkey.
...

Do not focus too much on the east,
And forget the west.
And do not ignore the south,
To speak for the north.
...

When you crave the answer to any divine question,
And are prepared to abandon yourself
To Truth and Time to know it,
You must first train yourself to distinguish
...

Love
Has a way of wilting
Or blossoming
At the strangest,
...

When the sun rises over the horizon,
The butterfly emerges to dance in its brilliant light.
It flickers its colorful wings with euphoria,
To celebrate all the beauty found
...

Each day is born with a sunrise
and ends in a sunset, the same way we
open our eyes to see the light,
and close them to hear the dark.
...

One, two and three
Three, six and nine
Soul, heart and body
Mouth, ears and eyes
...

You once told me
You wanted to find
Yourself in the world -
And I told you to
...

Where you find Truth
Is where you find your reflection
And where you find your reflection
Is where you find love
...
