We are not victims,
overwhelmed by being;
the pure force of life
pouring oceans over our heads
& us drowning, overwhelmed
because of it–
No, we have learned
how to swim with,
over, under
& across currents
that pull gentler souls
under water

Well written poem Susan
Thank you!
I have to ask. . . when is your book coming out? Do you have a book out yet? The poems you are sharing are outstanding and inspiring. More people should read them.
Jeremy–thank you SO much! (turns several shades of red) Does a Sally Field impersonation–“you like them? You really, really like them?”
You have just so totally made my day! I am NOT kidding here…..
