Glorious morning
you send the sun above the horizon
to gently perforate my skin
Sinking in your warm rays
to glow from within
To feel the light
run through my veins
So does my sense of self remain

What is it that you cherish in my name?
It’s doomed to die as wistful noise
Of wave that splashed against a bank,
As creepy sound in nightly grove.
On memorandum it will leave a trace,
A lifeless mark like pattern strange
Of epitaph on tombstone grave
Carved in a tongue unknown and quaint.
What is in it? Long time forgotten since
In worries of the new tumultuous times
Your soul will never own, partake in bliss
Of tender recollections pure and nice.
But on the day of sadness, when in peace
You utter it in token of your grief,
You whisper: there is memory of me,
There’s heart in world in which I'm living still...

Sixty six years ago today,
After 43 seconds of freefall,
A city was turned to trash,
So many people,
A poisonous mushroom of glowing ash,
Enola gay,
Had just given birth,
The chain reaction still goes on,
Nothing stands in it’s way.

About this poem:
August 6th 1945 The Enola Gay, a B29 Superfortress dropped the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima....It seems ironic that Japan is now still using the very power that nearly destroyed the country all those years ago......Only my personal opinion....Nuclear power, when the theory was born, was not meant to destroy......It was Einstein who foresaw what would happen....The rest is history.....A power that has saved so many lives and yet has taken so many too....Andrew...xxx

It is boring, it’s sad! – not a soul who'll lend hand
At a time of emotional mishap...
Desires ... what’s use to desire forever in vain?
While years roll by - and best years at that!
To love – whom to love? – Flitting love is such waste,
Love forever - impossible thing...
If you look close inside – there’s no trace of the past,
Every joy and torment, every thing is so mean.
And of passions I’ll say – sweet disorder they bring
That will vanish with time at a bidding of mind.
And our life, if you look with cold judgment at it
Nothing much seems to be, foolish jest, mere farce!

About this poem:
Mikhail Lermontov, a Russian Romantic poet, "the poet of the Caucasus", as he was sometimes called cause he did military service in Caucasus, became the most important Russian poet after Alexander Pushkin's death in 1837. On July 25, 1841, at Pyatigorsk, fellow army officer Nikolai Martynov, who felt offended by one of Lermontov's jokes, challenged him to a duel and killed him. Lermontov is considered the supreme poet of Russian literature alongside Pushkin and the greatest figure in Russian Romanticism.

From rice seedlings,
you grow into the rice straw, and rice...
Unwavering stand upright...
under the rain, heat and storms...
Nothing could ever scar you...
Not even pets nor rodents...
Not even bad weather and drought...
You keep standing strong...
Until the harvest time coming...
Your motto of life...
The more rice you have,
the more you will ducking...
Have inspired me a lot...

to walk the steps of another is to drown in the blood of a brother,
stand my son and follow thy father as thy father followed thy grandfather,
stand my daughter follow thy mother as they mother followed thy grandmother,
stand my sister follow thy brother as of to war he did suffer,
stand thy brother follow thy sister as she did mend ill during war,
stand thy family follow thy ancestors as thy did work the land,
stand thy government as did thy ancestors whom built your world,
stand thy fellow humans as united we stand devided die,
the end is near but the begining is here so together we learn from those so dear we have followed so past,
from their endings we must bring new beginings to serve as one ,
to restart fresh and become governed by one we must all understand what must become,
live by one set rules defer all odds as once done christmas 1914,
lay down your guns come under one banner and become as one ,
move from ancestors past today into the future of space and beyond,
all errors of judgement long forgone now once said and done ,
peace has begun and new begining has finally been won.

About this poem:
well i could not sleep and just got to thinking how german/french soldiers laid down their guns during war in 1914 to bring peace and enjoyment to xmass and how this could be achieved world wide with just one set of rules for all.

The sky has
shapes among
the colors of
gray & blue.
Which seem to
want to draw
your attention
in grabbing
onto you.
They seem to
draw you in
making your
imagination
work over time.
Ahead you see
the pine tree
is saluting
you from the
sky hoping all
your dreams
are provided.

But you'll never find happiness
Unless
Ya find it in yourself 1st
Always searching for Love outside
And when you think it's it then your bubble burst
Feeling cursed
Or maybe worst
Spirit the nurse
The doctor
Even at the lowest point still got ya
Look
See
Still breathing
Still receiving
The Love of The Most High
Sigh
Sigh
Please
Just look inside
Yea at times a rollercoaster ride
But away with foolish pride
Let The Divine within be your guide
Love is infinite
And never leaves
Ourselves we spite
With wants n needs
Sewing seeds
Of destruction
Negativity & corruption
Here comes the eruption
Whirlwind
Spiritual volcano
Spewing up out to through
Everyting iNna this flow
Funny not funny
We already know
And still choose to blow
Malice n hate
Argument n debate
Haaahaaaaaa
It is hilarious
Cos all must be
And we
Learn from tasting da dust
Biting da dust
From the bottom we're thrust
Trust
Spirit always reminding
Breaking n grinding
To help us be finding
The 1ne true Love
That lives n remains in the essence of
Every1ne n everyting that does be
Find yourself n find the ultimate key
Bathing in the beauty
The tranquility
At peace with self brings peace with everybody
So what's it all about
I'll buy you gifts today n say
I Love you
Hmmm
I'll Love you more
For every moment you endure
My slips my slides
My ego n pride
Thank you
For accepting me for who what I am
What a beautyfilled feeling stretching forth ma hand
Let ma light shine
I am Divine
Bending perception of mind
To align
That which is to be aligned
Every1ne remember yes
Remember you're blessed
Partner no partner
It's on you to manifest
Your desires
Your dreams
Choose misery n worry or choose streams of infinite beams
Laugh
Smile
Give thanx
Appreciate
And I promise your Love will multiply n create
A beautyfilled feeling inside
A place of appreciation n contentment maybe even the perfect husband or bride

About this poem:
It is not fair to seek a fiancé unless you are already happy in yourself
Many want to find somebody to make them happy but that won't work
When you're both already happy before meeting you have the opportunity to be yourself without masks or playing a character to please
Rule No 1ne:Happiness is an inside job

Some may think: there is no God.
Some may refuse the joy of life.
A late night with music and stars.
I am happy, I am no man's wife.
Jesus was the one, who reflects the light.
Starving people somewhere, waiting.
A miracle is what we need to survive.
Some people use all their life hating.
I am in a far-away-shore.
Drifting with words and rhymes.
Some may call me whore,
that's what I call myself sometimes.
When a relationship ends, a new one begins.
Many men so far I have met and had.
Still there is One Man in my heart who reigns.
And He never calls me bad.

Life Has been on HOLD
for Too Many Seasons
have Never been Told
Just, That Their are Reasons
In "His" time we see the light
at the End of the Tunnel
not Yet Bright
but Narrows, Like a Funnel
I Feel From Within
Time is Drawing Nigh
to find Peace and Love
just waiting on the Sky
sometimes we get this feeling
that Love is going to find us
not one thats Stealing
Rather one thats Healing
so now we know
its soon to come
we feel from within us
Peace already begun
Im not sure Who
and Not sure Where
We'll know for sure
when Forever Gets Here!
