Back To Bernaccia
There’s a place in my heart Nowhere else can be A place just for you In my dreams Cheviots to the sea Yeavering Bell to the old Tyne River Forever home for me In Bernaccia. Grass not so green Streets not paved with gold The sun doesn
Time to reflect.
Desist! resist! for we dare not fall into this wayward quest, hearts broken in foolish folly, love scorned as life persists and all for what?, tis better to be than not to be, to find ourselves and not misery, so, friend or foe it matter not, for whe
I woke!
I woke today, just like yesterday, but with winters rain against my window pane, on this summers day, was wrong!, , no sunlight shadow crossed my bedroom there, no birdsong noone to care, and the light would dim, lie down and die, forsaken who? you o

Up or not?
Space and time mean what?, How long have I got in this spot? For space to exist, we need time, for time to exist we need space, what does that mean for the human race? We exist in our own personal paradigm, what we believe is true for all our time, w
Hope springs eternal!
So, we are here today, where were we yesterday? Before we were born where were we? Cultivated in our mothers tummy!,,, So, where were we before the "act" we cant remember thats a fact, and where will we be when we cant see, back to the start? Hear th

Just Saying! Just Truth!
When your number is up!
I don't want to play this numbers game, life has changed, its not the same, only yesterday I was 2 and 1, where the hell has that gone?, Woke up today, what can I say, I'm now 6 and 1, that didn't take long, so I suppose tommorrow will be the same
Into My East
A poem randomly inspired by "Into the West" from Return of the King (Lord of the Rings) sung originally by Annie Lennox but prefer this other rendition as the two female singers sung it with a more haunting Celtic tone ... https://youtu.be/h_-AHeGO-bE
I am!
It is what it is. You know.
Against the Odds...Haiku.
A poem of hope for Ukraine.
The Other Side
“Strange, is it not? that of the myriads who Before us pass'd the door of Darkness through, Not one returns to tell us of the Road, Which to discover we must travel too.” (Omar Khayyam – The Rubaiyat, verse 46) Omar Khayyam was a Persian mathematician, astronomer, and poet. He was born on May 18, 1048 and died on December 4, 1131. The verse of his poem quoted was written more than nine centuries ago. The message of his poem still holds today. My poem, “The Other Side”, is in line with the quoted verse from Khayyam's poem and is not meant to disparage the religious beliefs of anyone.
Vlad To The Bone
Parody of George Thorogoood's Bad To The Bone. I saw protesters last weekend supporting Ukraine, and I stand with them.
HEAR THE ANGELS WEEPING
Update 3/4/2022: Also, for all the innocent children being slaughtered in Ukraine in the senseless battle brought on by another nation in their homeland. For all the innocent children who are being slaughtered at our schools and around the world.
WONDERING!
And I wonder, if love songs didn't make you sad, and life didn't make you mad, if life was perfect how would you be? And I wonder, if tomorrow was the end of it all, how would you be? what would you do? Its all a question of love and life, oh yes,
Setting Free ...
Inspired by a song from the Philippines sung in my native Tagalog originally ... https://youtu.be/LiTbbZua-F0 and one of the better English translation sung by an amateur Filipina .. https://youtu.be/oPLbWtq4iqw Coming from a culture that embraces the sadness and tears of lost/failed love ... as much as the euphoric joy it can bring .... which is why such songs, no matter how sad... easily become immortally popular amongst us, no matter where in the world we may be ...
Simple is Best ...
There comes a time when we don't get impressed with the "butterflies in the stomach" or the "fireworks" any longer ... There comes that time when we look for that feeling of deepening connection growing str

The days of now!
So, the ruling few have been bitten in the a** by one of their own, what will they do now? Oh they cant believe nor comprehend, how this will go or how it will end, Putin screwed them, now hes not their friend, time to regroup, hes not in their loop.

Before our paths crossed , our lives unfolded on their individual own , as we gathered experiences both sweet and bitter ... Eventually we met, all the wiser but quite wearier ... The chinks in our armor a little more worse fo

In Arwen's Requiem
To the story in the Lord of the Rings trilogy that mattered most to a romantic like me. Inspired by the film's brief reference to Arwen's own demise, a year after Aragorn chose it was time to forever sleep and cease his long life ... They could have made, in my opinion, a film on the Tale of Aragorn and Arwen (Appendice A in Return of the King Book).

Our Best ... Our Heart ...
We can try our best.... like I really do .... But it seems , many times, the one we most badly want, we simply don' t get to keep ... And with a heavy sigh, before the ache gets to feel too deep, that hopeful heart is, once more,

Just as it is a person who , before, has deeply hurt and mangled us ... So it is most likely that another individual's love, belief in us, support & trust... will carry us along farther & further to truly move on and le
