"Where the firmament melts and evaporates into the heavens."


Because We Will Not End
 
 
Meet me after awhile
Where the earth meets the sky,
Where flowers rise up to become clouds.
Watch for me where the firmament
Melts and evaporates into the heavens,
Where waters flow into the sun. 
I will be there.
Either, before or after you,
I do not know which.
 
But shall we promise
To look for and to find
Each other,
In the morning,
At the start of a new day,
Where the earth meets the sky?

Audio and Author Comment-

Going along with the theme of 'Life', let us consider a life after this one.  Some people plan to meet their loved ones on the other side of the eastern gate of heaven.  Some make no plans at all.  The protagonist in this posted poem prefers to meet just at the horizon.  skp

Unnoticed Moments, Poems by Susan Patterson
 


​Unnoticed Moments
, our latest  book authored by Susan Patterson is available at the Earlene Grey website, www. earlenegrey.com. 

You will find the poems in this book contemporary and sharp.  One reader put it quite nicely, "Susan has the rare knack of constructing simple lines with few words, which contrive to slip under the most careful guard and to penetrate our souls and leave their wisdom for us to relish."

Unnoticed Moments is available for $12.00 each or you can get it on sale in combination with other books.   Go to Specials on the website.    Why not get copies for your friends as well?  Great idea! 



▶Writing is always beneficial.  No matter how often, how long, the purpose or the product.        Earlene Grey
