Women Poems/Love Poems

Susan Sherman

In lieu of a review, here is one of the poems:

POEM TO A WORD UNSPOKEN

You pull me toward you

You fill me My body reaching

toward yours

So full of you

l cannot breathe

lt is the best part of us that loves Yet we love with

our whole selves The night filled with sleep

Only once l touched my fear Named it To this I dedicate

my poem To this And to you Remarkable to me as my own

hands As I touch them Recognize them as mine

Would l destroy my tongue Pull the lips from my mouth

This presence once existing ordering the rest

My world

The answer is here It comes

silently Like a word never

spoken

Hanging suspended

A small green thing
