This is my hand.

I view the night through
opened fingers.

This is my hand...

Clenched.

The night still passes.

Yet only I can see the
difference.

Being fairly new to the forum, I think I can only guess at a hint of the expression of this poem.  Still, it speaks.

  Susan

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Excellent as always Eric...
It's all in how you look at things.

Something tugs at me, I've no doubt of that.
Something from the sea, whichever one I'm near.
When I stray too far from beachland, it calls me back

To capture visions, one must see through the heart...as you convey so well with yours.
A profound image said here.

More thought provoking words from your master quill.

Take care.......Sue

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you
