A Poem Written by Vivian Ennis 04/29/02

Time is of the essence
Excuses heard now melt away like the water as it settles into the ground after a long hard rain
the hard rain like the past pain of wanting and not having

The truth so clear to me now…

Life can no longer pass me by wanting and not having
and time cannot slip away at the wanting for the inevitable
Precious moments of memory can no longer hold true to the truth of what a new day can bring

New freedom is here…

Real live emotions now filled with new laughter fun and love
that I had once waited for while time stood still as if not to move
so still that I could feel the debts of my love going no where

But now I will the laughter and love to be…

As I now experience a life that is to short to waste on the ambiguity and instabilities of another
