Love Finds a Way

photography by Susa Silvermarie

Sometimes,
seeking the light demands
finding a crack in your wall
and (as your hunger for sun
pushes out your being)
boring that crack open.

You drill your thirst right through
the wall you crouched behind.
As astonished
at the brightness as you are,
by then life is insisting
so hard, entreating so loudly,

that you stop fighting
and simply reach,
with every fiber of your being
and every one of your colors showing,
reach up,
reach up for love.

    Such a beautiful reminder that love is all there is and to stop, stop fighting. So grateful your yet another beautiful reminder from Susa as I
    grieve the death of my precious sister Barbara. Much love to you dear Susa, your longtime friend Diane
