twirling life like a rubik's cube
she searched and begged
directions to that special path
a signal to ordained fame
turning molehills into mountains
she upturned pebbles with her foot
sprinted with wild abandon until
her candle flickered in the hunt
shedding light on a faded trail
she broke off symbol watching
clung to the course she'd chosen
and, in time, that became enough

Very profound this.....it really speaks to me and is beautifully worded, of course.
yep, this indeed spoke volumes...and I love the way you ended it..., satisfaction brings lots.
i am so looking for that place.. "that's enough...."
I like the journey this takes you on...very nice.
I think I have found the place that is enough for me.
I loved it.
Sue,
Too oft we search for that which we already have.
Nice word path!

I love that word 'twirling' any journey in life that starts with the word twirling has got to have a happy ending. Loved the poem.
Yes. enough. So often we are looking for more when enough is enough! God, you're good!
Sue, your combination of painting & word art is truly special. I’m presenting you with an award. Come by and pick it up
LOVED this poem! Brilliant.Especially the last line--such quiet acceptance.
I like your poem, but I just LOVE your watercolors!
Dear Sue,
Your watercolor is beautiful.
Absolutely gorgeous. I would hang that in my house in a heart beat.
I usually read your poems a couple of times and out loud before I comment but the watercolor is so fine I just have to say something right now! You are a very talented woman. I am awed.
