This poem is a thank you to my friend Jaguar, a woman who has known and lost love. . . a woman who now seeks love again. . . Jaguar my friend, may you find love again and may your heart always be loved. . .

She moves through the heart of darkness
With a silence that belies her name.
Is she hunter or is she hunted?
Matters not, it is all the same. . .

She is one with the night
Her very body moving with the dark
She surveys the landscape with her green eyes
To see that it, like her heart, is lonely and stark.

She sings her song to any who will hear
Her voice a cry to the moon
Singing out her lonliness to the world
That to her, love will come soon.

She comes upon one with outstretched arms
To caress and keep her near,
He has come not to cage her
But to keep her safe from fear.

Thank you Jaguar for allowing me to share this with everyone. . .


 That which gives light must endure burning
--Victor Frankl

Such a beautiful tribute Sven, Jaguar you must be thrilled and touched.   One day I hope someone would write something like that about me.  The gift of love painted with poetry (SIGH)  Bravo    

 The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there IS to celebrate.
