MY RANDOM THOUGHTS

For the most part  She was always moving  In never-ending loops.  She longed for a resting place,  But still, she kept moving.  Never did she notice  She had it all along    In the smile that reached her eyes,  The warmness of her voice,  The stillness of her gaze.   when she finally stops I hope she knows  She was always the resting place.     @Sue.Ketter

Night is my friend Words flow freely here. In the quiet silence Thoughts consume me. Have you seen me lately? I have been who I was. Did you notice, Or did it escape you? In the simple complexities of life I changed to remain the same, I know, baffles me too. Me, here, now I have not lost you yet, I am still and always me Have you seen me lately? I have been who I was, I am who I've been.     @Sue.Ketter

It takes time for me to act on ideas But when I finally do, I soar, maybe I have never hoped to be on any acme Nor did I dream of breaking any glass ceiling . I know my purpose And I resolve to live it These mountains I've climbed Gave me the strength I didn't think I had. So here I am Bearing myself in a place that makes me uncomfortable But hey, be uncomfortable with me No regrets is what I aim for And when my time comes, I'll say I lived.     @Sue.Ketter

Letters, words, concepts, Effortlessly coming together, Swaying to the dance of pen on paper, Boundlessly connected To the myriad of journeys taken, Flowing through the pages with grace.     @Sue.Ketter

There's a vast empty space Waiting to be filled, Made of stories and adventures, Thousands of little moments Strung together by time.     @Sue.Ketter

Remember  How you walked with grace, How you left smiles in your wake, How honored they were to know you, How you carried your crown effortlessly so.     @Sue.Ketter

She is the embodiment of victory She's known fear She's known bravery Her courage stems from battle scars Where she leads you follow She forges a path of her own And make it she must She is, the woman king.      @Sue.Ketter

As time passes And dreams remain unfulfilled Remember the cosmos flower She blooms long after others have Her stubborn determination Is her deep-rooted faith That one day  She too will bloom.     @Sue.Ketter

Listen to the silence You might learn something For it has much to say. Listen to the quiet You may gain something For its echoes resonate.     @Sue.Ketter

I read the book, Took a page, Threw it back tenfold.     @Sue.Ketter 

Some days she climbs mountains  Like they're hills, Fiercely moving forward toward the dream Always praying, Always hoping, Forever grateful. Greatness flows within her soul, The heart of a champion that she has Surpassing that glass ceiling Always praying, Always hoping,  Forever grateful.   @Sue.Ketter

So the sun sets  And a new day begins  The mood is sombre  Imbued with anticipation  Rain drops fall Like Eskimos we look  We've made night our friend  Ain't no monsters we pray  The sun rises  Signalling the end of day  We welcome the slumber  Nighty night we go.      @Sue.Ketter

To the wind She spoke of her wishes  And from the trees  She heard the whispers It is well my child!     @Sue.Ketter 

Some journeys  Were meant to be taken  Through winding paths  Deep within forests  Surrounded. Some journeys  Were meant to be taken  Through dusty roads In deserted towns  Alone.    @Sue.Ketter

When the storm raged I found strength in Him who gave me life When the ground caved in  He held my hand, lifted me up When the world came at me  His shield covered me And when my faith faltered By His Grace, I was redeemed His mercies endure forever.            @Sue.Ketter

Scary, isn't it This place  This risk-taking place Where you step off that comfort train Leave your attachments behind. This place,  This Anything Can Happen place Where you are excited and yet dreadful Acceptance is paramount In this place     @Sue.Ketter

There will be good days And there will be bad days May we learn to live In the in-between Where stars shine The moon's bright. Where nothing happens And all is silent. May we revel in the quietness And be alive In the in-between.        @Sue.Ketter

Time flew by Seasons changed, With storms, paths cleared, With the sun came relief. Dreamt new dreams, though old ones remain The moments in memory, The culmination of all, Conforming to thine self, Remembering who you are!                @Sue.Ketter

Oh How we drown Under the weight Of words unspoken.    @Sue.Ketter

For one moment, Just a single moment, The music played, Like it would never end, Sweet, sensual, and soothing, Yet so powerful. For one moment, Just a single moment, Her heart stopped She couldn't breathe, Felt like forever, Yet so little a time. For one moment, Just a single moment, The moon and the sun Shone brighter, The light so illuminating, Yet so subtle. For one moment, Just a single moment, The earth stood still, For the lovers, It was forever Yet just a short time. For one moment, For that single moment, She believed, That love exists for everyone, To hold and to cherish, Yet be held and be cherished.         @Sue.Ketter

Like a classic beat, Are you in my heart, Forever in reach, The memory so neat, Never to be forgotten. Like the setting sun, Is the beauty of you, The mere actions, A combination of which Can never be forgotten. Like a soaring eagle, Was your will by me, The wishes untold, But always there, Never to be forgotten. Like the morning star, Were your smiling eyes, The happiness shared, Within and without, Never to be forgotten. Like a natural reserve,   Is our friendship, Whatever happens, Gladness is mine, I have a friend like YOU. @Sue.Ketter
