World of fools
Once, many years ago I read this poem in English lesson. I never forgot. I think this tells about our - most of rhe times - silly behaviour of mankind. Nevertheless, the world is a big challange.
Without Love
Galaktion Tabidze (1892–1959) - the 20th century Georgian poet whose writings profoundly influenced all subsequent generations of Georgian poets. He survived Joseph Stalin's Great Purge of the 1930s, which claimed lives of many of his fellow writers, friends and relatives, but came under heavy pressure from the Soviet authorities. Those years plunged him into depression and alcoholism. He was placed in a psychiatric hospital in Tbilisi, where he committed suicide (Wiki). This is how the poem sounds in brilliant recital!
EMPRESS FALL
Something inspirational again! Provided you are not too tired here is another translation from our Tbilisi poet Tamila Aydinova writing her verse in Russian. This is her third poem posted by me here. Autumn is my favorite so don’t be surprised if I keep returning to this subject. I do appreciate your time and thank you for devoting it to reading my translations! Best wishes to you all!
Worship What Matters

A man without Love......
I have become an empty shell Filled will heartache pain and despair If I cannot praise you or raise you, who am I without whom I love I must love myself then you When I find my purpose, I will discover yours No talent or skill puts me above you

Loneliness
Loneliness is silence in its loudest form; it lives in your head and your heart Loneliness sits alone, it eats alone and sleeps alone Loneliness is that thing that tears at your soul; it’s the heart beat of sadness Loneliness is fueled by rejectio
Train to now where
The wheels turn the noise echos on the tracks voices heard chit a chat music loud deafens ones ears One longs for peace and solitude Destination known One travels to destinations end where one goes one is unknown till one arrives
Dawning
Though it is too late we must carry on though we break the night still will come the dawn.
girl from elsewhere
there'll be people on sundays standing in doorways praying to statues they want to believe her face amongst many a sunflowered penny shined by the daylight lucky to some her eyes azure curtains as nothing was certain a flowering kin
LOVE FOR EVER
I WANT SOMEONE TO LOVE ME HAS MUCH I WOULD LOVE HER
If Ever
Again and again when I start writing a comment I am so slow in doing it that my comment gradually grows into a poem. This is as a comment to Fellsman's latest "Just Suppose ..."
NORTHERN GODDESS
You can google Northumberlandia as she is called she can be seen from up high. I have walked up her and at the very top viewing point some open cast mining could still be seen on the other side. The contrast of what was, and what is just took my breath away.

When Shall my Sun Sets
Life's journey; fear does cripple us in many ways! Death is scary so is sickness and strife yet sometimes when we've done our very best...sometimes...the fear goes away...gratitude and acceptance take its place! Life can be likened to a beautiful day that starts with a glorious sunrise and an awe-inspiring sunset! I haven't written for a long time; years I think. I have not been well many a few times this year and I believe that when one writes a poem for someone it really comes from their heart. I just wanted to express my gratitude to my husband who without fail has gone beyond my expectations each day I am not well. I feel blessed that I can come home at the end of a challenging day knowing that I have someone who understands what I am going through!

F.E.A.R
A game I played and found it so frightening and spellbound at the end the plot thicken to bring the conclusion that the hero and the small girl are related ...she was his mother and she was protecting him from some of the dark projects the scientists did with her DNA.....
Confession my Spirit and Soul
The Damned unname Antichrist has got me bound in chains and made me guilty ....Its time to confess my ill doings and give testimony of my faith in God of Isreal, Holy Spirit and Lord Jesus. My war is far from over but now I am firm and ready to let Jesus heal me inside out ....Many will question my preaching/warning as I am not baptised ....I leave all of it to HIM
What is love?
I have long been a romantic but don't think I have ever truly been in love. I think I might have been in a sort of love when I was about 13, 14 or 15 and had huge crushes on several girls at that stage of my life but was that really love? I know that many of my relationships were based on 'lust' not 'love' but as I don't really know what love is can I be sure. Anyway this poem, such as it is, is based on my frustration of not really knowing whether I have experienced love in my life as yet.
Memories
I Dont understand what I wrote but sound nice .
my poet friends
a tribute to ALL poets past, present and. future!
MY MASTERPIECE (Last poem)
lately very disappointed with some events taking place elsewhere, its affected my morale badly, Alas this is my Masterpiece! my very last composed one. if something goes right in your life you can take comfort and strength from there, when nothing seem to go brightly or boost your confidence, it takes a Hell of a beating and the last straw would be jumping off a bridge. . . not me, not even good enough to do it when depression hits, i fight it back by listening to music. its not working this time. . . the good news is more time to comment.
Do you remember me?
just felt it flowing through my mind but it does not rhyme somehow the words are just so beautiful to me By the way ...this is my imagination I dont have a wife yet So dont feel so bad that I lost my wife Its a special write that amazed myself So dont feel bad coz its frictional.
Noted feelings
Self-explanitory, I believe.
Until You’re Gone
The stormy things in life like love.......
My Vacation
I have been wanting to go to California all my life. Most of my trips as a child were to Arkansas where I went to the Gateway Arch in St. Louis only once. Then it was fishing in Hayward or Gordon, Wisconsin.

As I often watch videos of animals rescued and finding love .. after so much hardship and abuse , sometimes too late , and sadly had to cross the rainbow above ... I’m left with the firm conviction that in them you unfailingly

The One for Us ....
You and I search and hope for the same ... though the love of our life may still yet to have a name ... The one we'd want to love with all our heart and soul ... We hope to God up above so we may find our goal ... To love wholly and truly
