I am from a not quite middle rung. Here for another go round. A mission to be more than the last slip of tongue. A seed sprouted by less than me. A rung or two below an understanding of whom I’m meant to be. I am fire and earth combined. Passion and nurturer intertwined. I feel more than see. From a distance or not it’s where I’m from. A power from within the finer depths of me. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

a fine response to the 'poetic challenge' from an excellent author!... I suspect that we ALL are at least... "A rung or two below an understanding of whom I’m meant to be(!)" MUCH applause for this 'write!' |

"I am fire and earth combined." Passion and nurturer intertwined." ~ Susan, that is a pretty nice combo! "I feel more than see." ~ and you relay that ability into fine poetry. I enjoyed your answering poem to Patricia's challenge.   Linda |

Yep, 'passion and nurturer' is an apt descriptor from what I know of you by your poetry! A wonderful challenge response. |

on "a mission to be more than the last slip of tongue" Oh, have you ever captured an ocean in a thimble! Excellent, and I relate! And this: "I am fire and earth combined. Passion and nurturer intertwined." Ahhhh. Lovely. |
