Art by Tymooon



When I was lying

On the roadside, bloodied doll,

I could only pray..



She came and took me in her

Cold arms, gave me peace and rest

Hello dear Mirror!

Will you still be insolent?

I am so tired!



Milady, you still are a

Beauty but time catches you.

Rencontre de hasard

Parler de tout, de rien,

Prendre un verre de vin

Dans la froideur d’un bar.



Un orchestre criard

Qui n’a rien de divin.

Tout cela est bien vain,

Que faire dans ce bazar?



Vouloir tromper l’ennui,

L’espace d’une nuit

En se laissant aller.



Se perdre dans le bruit,

Ne pas croquer le fruit,

Surtout ne pas chialer.

Naiveté

I have a certain naiveté

even after all these years.

I find it hard to accept

that others can be cunning,

devious, even ruthless,

thus fall into the trap again.



I don’t think it is because

I need to be a victim but rather

have retained a child-like

wonder of the beauty of the

world that our Creator has

given us.



Lord, protect my naiveté

and deliver me from cynicism.

Let me remain a believer

in the Tooth Fairy

and the goodness of man.

“Whispers Through The Night”

“Whispers Through The Night”


Intimate couple


Whispers Through The Night


Two lovers loving so intimately


Not caring what is happening beyond the moment


Aroused by only the touch of a hand,


And the whispers through the night


The twinkle in their eyes is like the stars in the sky


The smell of their scent is like a warm summer’s day


Longing and hoping this intense feeling they have for each other


Lasts forever and just as strong


The magic of love is a blissful peace


The soft noises that lovers make


Are like whispers through the night


Oh, the wonderful pleasure in the whispers through the night

Update on: “She Survived it all” Many thanks to my readers and friends!

I had posted a request to keep a blog “She Survived it ALL” going, because someone from back home was in trouble.  She had just been severely beaten by her soon to be husband and was reaching out to me.  I didn’t know her very well, but she had known about my brutal attack years ago and how I had became a part time journalist for a local paper and a supporter and volunteer at a safe house.



I received such a united front of support and concern, I felt it was my responsibility to let my fellow readers, friends and followers on her situation and condition.  She stayed several weeks at a safe house, receiving counseling and their finding her housing and financial support.  She is far from being alright, but well on her way to recovery and a new way of life and hopefully, a big dose of a better self-esteem.



There are…

I’ve got a Feeling


Little ones without a home or a bed

Children should be in our care

Not a place to lay their weary heads

God, the burdens they must bear

On the streets, day or night

Corruption is in the crowds

Not ever knowing the people’s plight

Not knowing the ones who cry out loud

Homeless, ragged, hungry, and sad

God, how could we allow things to get so bad?


I’ve got a feeling

Heaven’s angels are crying there

For we have lost our willingness to care

Look at all the ages in despair


I’ve got a feeling

The day of reckoning will come

The wrath of God will apply to some

People, some young, some old

Will find their place at heaven’s gate

The righteous will be brought into the fold

While the merciless will have to wait


I’ve got a feeling

Heaven’s angels are crying there
