A POEM FOR SUSAN

SUSAN YOU LIVED YOUR LIFE WITH SO MUCH TO GIVE
I PRAY THAT YOUR LIFE DIDN'T END IN VAIN.
BY SOME ONE WHO IS INSANE TAKING YOUR RIGHT TO LIVE.

STRANGERS LIKE ME FEEL COMPELLED TO FIND YOU
TO SEEK OUT THE HIDING PLACE
WHERE YOU WERE TAKEN THAT COLD DEC. DAY
SEEKING OUT THAT BEAUTIFUL SMILE ON YOUR FACE.

YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL A SPIRIT THAT DOES SHINE
NO MATTER WHERE YOU WERE TAKEN
YOU, WE WILL FIND
FORSAKEN

YOUR SPIRIT IS ALIVE AND WILL TELL US ABOUT YOUR WHERE ABOUTS
NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU
WE KNOW THAT YOU DID'T DISAPEAR WILLINGLY
WE KNOW THAT YOU WOULD OF NEVER LEFT YOUR BOYS
ALONE IN FEAR WITH OUT THEIR MOTHER TO HOLD THEM SO DEAR.

PLEASE OH GOD, OUR LOVING MOTHER OF ALL
PLEASE BRING SUSAN COX POWELL BACK TO US
ALIVE AND WELL
OR DO TELL
WHERE IT IS THAT WE MAY FIND HER
SO THAT WE CAN LET HER FAMILY BE AT REST
KNOWING WHERE YOU ARE AND KNOWING THAT YOU ARE TAKEN CARE OF IN THE LOVE OF ALL PEOPLE WHO ARE SEARCHING FOR YOU. THE LOVE OF FAMILY AND STRANGERS SEEK YOU OUT.
THE LOVE OF GOD WILL BRING US TO YOUR WHERE ABOUTS
AND THEN THINGS WILL BE AS THEY ARE MEANT TO BE
PEACEFUL AND LOVING ENERGY SURROUNDING ALL THAT HAVE CAME TO KNOW YOU.
PEACE BE WITH YOU.
LOVE BE WHAT FINDS YOU.
SERENTIY BE WHAT COMES
WHEN YOU ARE BACK HOME.
