Another poem by Russian poetess Marina Tsvetaeva.
Ships in the Night (To Cafe)
For the years that I've been on here, I have crossed swords with some and had agreeable chats with others. Jim was certainly of the latter. He wrote from the heart and I suspect typified that honest American, no nonsense ideal. He was the genuine article. You could see that from his poetry. I'm saddened to hear that he is no longer with us. We all tread that tightrope. Fond memories dear Cafe.
The Fallen
we are the fallen, we are the souls, we were men of greater goals. we are the solistice, we are the peace we are the fools you took at ease. we are the strong, in mind and heart, we are the souls you torn apart. we are the lost, we ar

Crabby Old Man
When an old man died in the geriatric ward of a nursing home in North Platte, Nebraska; it was believed that he had nothing left of any value. Later, when nurses were going through his meager possessions, they found this poem. When you meet an older person who you might brush aside without looking at the young soul within, think twice. (Author is deceased and unknown)
for you mom
you where here You where here Inbody and soul To hear you talk To laugh once more i know you you gone I know you cant come back Your with me always In my soul you still with me mother In my soul
Jennifer's Song
An angel sang her way in to my heart Early one rainy spring day.. And brought with her sunshine into my life, But alas she could not stay. Such a beautiful smile She wore to hide her pain, Her heart an umbrella To shield us from the
Corvus Mortis
There is an empty country road on my way to work, where you can see for three miles from one end to the next. On days like this, when I wake up late, it isn't uncommon for me to drive at pretty excessive speeds. Two ravens sat at breakfast, roadside- By the time they saw me coming (and I saw them) it was a little too late for one of them. Took off flying, but didn't turn away from the road. ;______;
A Defiance to Old Age
Thou shalt not rob me,thievish Time, Of all my blessings or my joy; I have some jewels in my heart Which thou art powerless to destroy. Thou mayest denude my arm or strength, And leave my temples seamed and bare; Deprive mine eyes of passion's light,
The Fight In Me
My beautiful Mitzi (my cat) passed away last week after fifteen wonderful years togeather.
A Life Remembered
I wrote this after watching the tribute to Michael Jackson. Because I think no matter how anyone rethinks it. Either that being positive or negative. I don't actually think there is a single soul alive, that has not smiled at least once because of this person. I myself can recall smiling when I was a kid, and I was amazed at how he did the moon walk..
Water, Trees, Wind, Emptiness
This is a (probably bad) translation by myself of a poem I wrote in my native tongue. I don't know if it even becomes anything near to a poem in English. But I post it anyway.
RIDER'S SONG (ANOTHER)
I posted another translation of a Poem of the same author, with the same title.

Prayers Unaswered
Prayers unanswered...
It's just like that
"You gotta make your own way In this world, said the father To the son" The son sneered, "Oh, it's like That?" "Yeah, said the father, it's Just like that." "You gotta be a father to your Children, mother said to son." Laughing, said the so

Missing a mother who sadly died 13th february 2012
x
There are so many words I can't bring myself to say for if I do, what have I to cling onto? "She was a lady, one of the best", I hear you say, the word "was" like a dart in my heart, she "is" I scream in silence, not willing to accept this grief
Silent Screams
there are screams we never get to hear...unless we are in the same boat we'll never understand that nothing can fill us up like a silent scream does...
Reflection
For my Mum.
"Let me go"
Let me be not the anchor that keeps your heart, the ship at a port of misery. As I sail away upon the seas of the after life, may hope be the wind that kisses my sails. Watch me go into the sunset not with tears of loss but with a smile that
Burning Candles
damn the careless ness of people with any type of open flames that causes such horific events.
The Kingdom of Heaven
For my mother Virginia, who passed away today...
Magic potion...
All that I have is not truly mine... We all live on borrowed time! Feeling the struggles of life and the pain of loss. For those that have loved and lost too, my heart goes out to you.

Death Awaits
I think we all wonder when and how death will take us. As I get older I think of it more, don't want to but the end is closer than before.
Gate To Heaven
I wrote this for my grandma who passed away in 2009.
God sent an angel
My daughter wrote this moments after her daddy died.
Dark Night
Twenty-four dark years rain down on Batman’s cave and bullets cloud summer. Pandemonium! Life’s delicate balance lost. Summer tears stream down. I am not surprised, says son's mother, reported. Summer reign shocks world.
Stuck
Dang it. It want go. I can't seem to move forwards, or backwards. Just stuck here in the middle of no where. I don't know, But it seems like I've been here for ever. The windshield wiper fluid has run dry. The windows starting to look a litt

Its hard enough trying not to cry, but the tears burn right through my eyes. As this empty void becomes a deeper hole I begin to realize. That if I could just hold her tight, and tuck her in her bed at night. Keep her safe and warm and all her

Games and life!
Such games prevail, but sadness reigns, the Show must go on, be what they want you to be, And then, finally you see, too late, it’s over, Oh such games we play, humanity is where it is, Honesty and integrity, so many have failed, So many pedesta
Loss
“Don’t grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.” ? Rumi
Under Ben Bulben
Under bare Ben Bulben's head In Drumcliff churchyard Yeats is laid. An ancestor was rector there Long years ago,a church stands near, By the road an ancient cross. No marble,no conventional phrase; On limestone quarried near the spot By his co
