Suzy Kassem Poems

The most beautiful stones adorn my neck
Like an Ancient Egyptian collar.
Two glistening balls of onyx sit on top,
Followed by a double stretch of coral.
...

The sea was angry,
Smashing anything that came its
Way as it crashed onto the shore.
And my thoughts were thrashing,
...

Love is a chemical reaction,
But it cannot be fully understood or defined by science.
And though a body cannot exist without a soul,
It too cannot be fully understood or defined by science.
...

The key to a wonderful life
Is to never stop wandering into wonder.
Because to live a predictable life,
Only fills a person with strife,
...

Before you were born,
And were still too tiny for
The human eye to see,
You won the race for life
...

One God, many faces.
One family, many races.
One truth, many paths.
One heart, many complexions.
...

I am nothing but
Oxygen and hydrogen,
A luminous sphere of plasma
Held together by helium and gravity,
...

Tormented by the flames of agony,
The woman pulled at her hair
And slapped her face a thousand times,
As streams of fire poured out of her eyes
...

Today's enemies can be your friends tomorrow.
And today's friends can be tomorrow's enemies.
Today's opponents can be your allies tomorrow.
And today's allies can be tomorrow's opponents.
...

You are not just white,
but a rainbow of colors.
You are not just black,
but golden.
...
