S O M E T H I N G T O L I V E F O R

You must have a hope
To inspire you.
You must have a path
To pursue.
You must have a object
To work for, a plan
And a purpose in view.

You must have a some direction
Or lost you'll go drifting along.
You must have faith to guide you,
When life holds no light
And no song!

You must have a stake in the future,
Though swiftly the years may depart.
You always have something to live for
If you have a dream in your heart.!

sueded chap

you weave a thread around my hair
and call it not a braid
the wind it whispers in my ear
this strand: left
unrestrained

the clouds -
they dance in ecs
tasy
pounding out the rain

I watch in thunder
I hear in light

as trails:
gallop to the sea

Blue Diamonds

Diamond blue
The color of your eyes
Love to watch them as they dance around
Hands soft warm and loving
Touches my heart
When I cup your face in my hands
Fills my soul
I can feel the love we share
Making me whole
When I look at your picture
I know our love is real
I give my heart to you
Handle it with tender love and care
Love and protect it .

Xx

Shadows of Life

Lets make our hearts
Wander into the fields
And listen
To the magic whispers of bending grass

Sounds like the wind
Blowing through the hollows
Eyes drifting
Towards the stars at night

My heart sings of joy
When I close my eyes
And dream
About opening them in yours

My face tightens with pain
As I am lying awake
And wonder
How long we’ll be apart

I’m going back home
Walking alone on this earth
And glancing
Down at the ground under my feet

A footprint in time
Lasting only a brief moment
And going
Away from you now

We can fall so far away
Speeding up fast
And get lost
Fading into the noisy crowd

When even the dust
Gathers into the corners
Of our minds
Our memories will grow old

In the shadow of life
Hiding from my feelings
Stuck in time
I am so lost without you

Who could deny oneself such love?!

Who could deny oneself such love?!
For life – it doesn’t end tomorrow ...
I’ll stop to wait for you, resign,
And then you’ll come out of my sorrow -
Who could deny oneself such love?!

And you will come when it is dark,
When windows shake in beastly weather,
When you recall how long has passed
Since time we’ve been together,
Yes, you will come when it is dark.

And you will crave so much for warmth
You failed to come to love at one time,
That you will find the line too long
Of men waiting for turn at phone box -
That’s how you’ll long and crave for warmth!

I’d give all that I have for this!
And I so trust in what I’m feeling,
That not to wait I wouldn’t think
All day clinging to door like limpet -
I’d give all that I have for this!

Who could deny oneself such love?!
For life – it doesn’t end tomorrow ...
I’ll stop to wait for you, resign,
And then you’ll come out of my sorrow -
Who could deny oneself such love?!

Who could deny oneself such love?!

I have translated the poem/lyrics put to music, added two links: one to the song performed by Alla Pugacheva and the other - to karaoke. Enjoy the song and follow the lines simultaneously. Have a good time!

Be Kind to Animals

There are many who will
kick their beast..
Who will starve them
to death while they
gorge in feast..
They will leave them
tied up in the freezing
cold..a sadder story
cannot be told..
There are many who think
that it's no big deal..
that these are nothing
creatures who cannot feel..
There are many who'll abuse
them in a filthy pen..
Many, many better think
again~

I Miss You So Much!

I miss you much, so much! Could hardly bring to mind,
When was it that a carefree boy he once to woods you took,
When was it that he picked you cherries at a price of smile,
Ripe cherry dress – same as in past it so befits, adorns you.
Oh it may be that time puts out what's good, one likes,
So that its price should rise, like price of dreams unproved.
Oh I can see our steps like hare’s marks that follow path,
Wish you remembered, Eli, how we called it 'day of woods'.
Now time that passed made me again crave for that day.
Should I behold you I might cry, I miss you much, so much!

About this poem:
Love again - there's no escape from it! Another translation of our Georgian poet. This must have been his first love - as it seems from the poem, but we all could relate, the most cherished and poignant memories are with the first love - no other love could compare!

emotional journey

Grief and sorrow will always pass but your love inside will never die. No one can tell you who to love as no rules apply,but always rember it works for others too. Life goes on and we learn each day,the life you live,the air you breath,the joy that makes you cry,and the sorrow that makes you want to die,is all of lifes mix. So my friend rember your happy times and let grief and sorrow pass.

Starborn

From the moment you were born...
I sensed your presence.
Your soul slipped...
And escaped my clutch.
The lost look on...
Without hope...
But for you,
I have made an exception....

I would pull all of the stars out of the sky...
And hold them in the palm of my hand...
Just to see your face...
And if the light is too bright, I would gladly go blind...
Just to feel your grace...

I know you...
I have always known you...
I love you...
I have always loved you...
You are my beautiful everlasting star....

STOP YOUR LUNACY

What drives you to consciously resemble a crook
it's what society sees behind your idiotic look
If it's rebellion against 'The Man' I get it
find alternative because you depict a dumb shit

STOP groping in public all you clueless prick's
society doesn't want to see you holding your d*ck's
Banning such inappropriate dress the majority share
civil folks despise seeing your stank a** underwear

Holding up your pants while walking laughable at best
all of your disrespectful antics rational people detest
Ditch hats if incapable of wearing the proper way
how about acting your age not your IQ Okay?

your attire I would surmise depicts you're bad
if that's your mentality your reality is very sad
Tattoos also don't definitively define a tough guy
more truth is they are not akin to FLY

The tacky look makes one look like a punk
indicative of just how far mankind has sunk
Stop the lunacy all you disrespectful bitches
be something other than one of life's glitches

If this seems offensive you get how majority feel
your mirror reflects a look with ZERO appeal
most agree with every word I have justly said
trend of insanity likely until humanity is dead
