Susan Williams Poems

I need to find time-
a scrap of time
unnoticed
by the demands of everyday life
...

Fireflies die
Stars wink out of existence
Butterflies fall from the sky
Rivers take the path of least resistance
...

.
I have no heart today.
I think I have lost it somewhere along the way
From yesterday to today.
...

..................Rain Washing The World Green
.
I have a homing bird feeling about
the rain falling
...

.
you say we should shake it off
you say get over it
you say it's not good for us
...

.
the ghosts are walking again
walking and talking in the night again
sorrow is eating my bones again
...

.
The mourning dove
visual manna from heaven above
beauty and delicacy in one form sailing
...

We live from day to day to day
and we play and we play and we play
we always have and we think we always will
yes there is a brain cell that knows that end it will
...

Afterwards I googled my heart out
but found to my vast surprise
nothing, not a thing
monumentally
...

I woke up this morning
and I was mourning
weary and broken
my life burnin' down to ashes and smokin'
...
