Animal print stained glass
Like this hang glider
Visible against pottery blue sky
Hooked on green,
Slurping scarlet without a word
Wings speaking with praying hands
Fine line the reach
between heaven and earth
Can we hope to contain this life
Our own heart, our own planet
its voice,
It’s repeating grief.
Suzanne, a very fine poem for the ages. You are good at this.

Thanks very much, Tracy and I would appreciate all constructive advise to improve. Some are easily obtainable then others are “what was I thinking” 🙂

I know what you mean. Some people have told me that poems are always a work in progress.

They are correct, I won’t say how many times I have edited most if not all of my posts 🙂

I didn’t get a picture, but this profound, evocative, poem doesn’t need one

The reason for no photo is that I changed my mind regarding the first one I put on, as it wasn’t framed correctly. Will try again. Thanks for the lovely comment, Derrick.
