Assignment Poem by Susan Lacovara

Assignment

Rating: 5.0


That she should ask in sweet sought out advice
my interpretation of defining Peace and Harmony...
To string together syllables,
in structured form...
her assignment, this eve...
So simple in it's nature...
yet endless, in the depth of it's core...

And I with just one glance, into her oceanic blue eyes
See the exact truth of peace and harmony...
(for it shines and radiates from her...within)
And all that is my trouble
Drains away, like thawing snow...

That she is free, choosing her paths..
That she is the voice of harmony...
Unafraid to sing aloud, caring not for accompaniment,
Or applause....
She merely is music to my life!

That she, in her last minute request of my aid,
Can not know the volumes she speaks...
That she, alone, opens the windows in my heart
And therefore, let's the beautiful breezes in.
This is my Peace...pleasant, fulfilling, above all else.

I could swim in the love that she gives me...
Never wanting to come up for another breathe..
That she is light, and love and lyrics...
Dear Erin, you steal the shadows and return the sun.
