Black is the deep of the coming night Shadowed from moon’s bright glow Where all colors seep in to one Creating the mysteries unknown Black holds treasures oft unseen Hidden from casual pry Where beauty as a rose doth grow Apparent only to seeking eye Black is the feel of velvet wrap The warmth of sainted womb Wherein crying soul may hide From gray of pending doom Black is the hue which guards the door To fragile and tender heart tears Camouflage from the calloused assault That many an assailant would bear Black is the garment in which I attire For in its sleek sweep flow I silhouette the breadth of me Letting only my shallows show Black is the deep of the coming night Shadowed from moon’s bright glow Where all colors seep in to one Creating the mysteries unknown s.a.t. If I wander far enough, long enough, will I finally know . . . |

You wear the color well, Susan~ I liked the velvet wrap, and the warmth it lends most of all. Looking good on you lady~ |

Susan, I like the color black in clothes especially. This is beautiful, though it does feel sad. You are such a good writer, you can make even sad beautiful.. Hugs, Ethel |

I love the color black! ~ Well, actually, black is the absence of color! It expresses the yin in me. I also love white which is the reflection of all colors and it is an expression of the yang in me. You have done a wonderful job of showing the mysterious and calming aspects of black. I love your poetry! It is so varied in style, mood, and theme! Big hugs, Linda |

Yes Susan, Black is the garment in which I attire For in its sleek sweep flow I silhouette the breadth of me Letting only my shallows show all of that, and more...is you. And I thank you very much for the new pic. |

this was absolutely beautiful...and couldn't help but think while reading, how much I love the night...it's gloriously mysterious and comforting to sit outside and allow it to wrap itself around you....with the stars for a ceiling...and the sounds of summer nights, eveloping your whole being...Nature is certainly incredible. |
