Careless days my youth
Those endless nights
Where taps always flowed
A crowded dance floor
Music and lights
Well stocked bar
Polished chrome
Girl with a pretty smile
Perched right next to me
Waiting for an invitation
To dance the night away
A request never made
Fear drowning courage
My awkward speech
That stumbling gait
Fumbling hands shook
The moment was lost
No words were spoke
Yep there’s the bloke
Standing in awe
Of such beautiful creation
Wondering all the time
Is love gonna be enough

One face, makes your heart sing
Caring eyes, of your queen-or-king
Gentle smile, that lifts your soul
As cupid's arrow, hits its goal

Emotions felt, as a couple grow
Seeds of doubts, at times you sow
Will this journey, end as friends
Or detour, taking a wrong bend

Two not one, must make a pair
Love-sincerity, both must share
See-saw moments, hold on tight
Ignoring others, if you feel it's right

Until both, know how to progress
Hands and hearts, invisible caress
Passion, like electricity charges air
To ignore true love, like this is rare

Does age or culture, block the way
For true love, does it matter anyway
Love can die, but deserves a chance
Eyes confirmation, with each glance

~ Dream ~

Life is but a wondrous dream

I could fall in love with you

Darling could you feel the same way too

You arouse the passion in my heart
when I gaze into the beauty of your eyes

True love, do you feel it too

Could it happen as suddenly ~ to you

Does love play it’s harp strings
upon your beating heart

Does it play it’s romantic music softly in the dark

Are your sweet lips awaiting mine

I want you my love, until the end of time ~

Hold me tight and don’t let go

Oh! How, I want to hold you so!

Oh! Tis a dream, Tis true!

But some day I will find the one

For I am searching, searching just for you!

As we turn a page on a brand new year
Calendar or diary, one thing will be clear
Forward looking, in anticipation we know
Anything can happen, hope seeds we sow

Dreams keep us heady, without crystal ball
To guide and protect us, from life's falls
Though on our journey, experience learnt
Will stop us getting, emotionally burnt

Physical pain, a factor all must endure
When time a healer, comes as our cure
Yet on the first day, when a year is new
Comes positive outlooks, rarely negative too

If we have been hurt, caution might lead
Hope taking control, because of a need
So as the New Year, explodes as it must
Enjoy every moment, considering trust

Each new opportunity, gives you a chance
To reap joy and happiness, taking a glance
Without rose-coloured-glasses, though smile
At the journey stretching ahead, enjoying each mile.

Images stir us alive, never forgotten
An avenue of trees, decked in blossom
You have a favourite memory you hold
Lift spirits, make you happy acting bold

Whether fragrance, adds to the pleasure
I love from my past, but I cannot measure
Against memories, retained in my heart
Drifting back in time, and miles apart

Past images so strong, special to me
Build momentum, each time I see
Nature's image, tree lined streets
Or farmland orchards, for family meets

Links carried, from strangers who cared
Designing avenues, for the future to share
Different sides of universe, a trigger too
To stir inner emotions, for those passing through

Pockets of special places, dot world's spaces
Lifting smiles, to visitors-residents faces
Little reminders, triggers of the mind
Personal video camera, to emotionally bind

Packers are out
Then I root for who?
The Bears and the Eagles are the only teams left I like
But they are playing each other
So after tomarrow night there will only be one left I like
For those I hate are the Cowboys and the Patriots
As for the rest
Saints, Chiefs, Rams, Chargers, Texans, and Colts
Not one of these do I care anything about
So will there be a team I like in the Super Bowl?
In four weeks we will find out on February 3.

Youth and maturity sat down on a bench …
Youth told: You will be able to live as I.
The maturity answered: Beauty is not eternal,
Learn to share beauty warm.

Youth, with a sneer: What in you it?
House, family, work … Boring fetters.
The maturity smiled as if to the younger daughter:
Without fetters family people of the single.

Youth went on: "Everything in me is fine,
It is young, free, and is beautiful, clearly?
The maturity answered: I am wiser than you,
And with you, the baby, I will not dare to argue …

Mature, you learn, happiness not in freedom,
Not in night festivities, not in the Parisian fashion.
Youth laughed: Nonsenses all this,
Time not in this happiness, means happiness is not present.

The maturity answered: No, it happens,
If the sky allows to live with darling,
If laughter of kids is heard from the house.
You with happiness, a crumb, are unfamiliar.

Youth asked: If truth it,
What at the nights do you cry and about what secrets?
I pay at the nights, the maturity said:
Because did not appreciate it earlier …

Apprehensive are some, yet excited too
Children eager to start, they wait on cue
Always a buzz, of chatter and laughter
Wary of outcome, like needing a partner

Dancing classes for children, adults too
Last minute change of minds, effect a few
Rarely girls, but boys seemed to hover
And many adults, will suddenly 'not bother'

Yet making an entrance, into a large hall
Even harder when empty, than noisy-and-full
Is the worry of adults, not children who rush
Soaking up the instruction, not making a fuss

Although some stumble, with two left feet
If they make second class, it'll be a treat
Though some very slowly, become hooked
By the time a new class starts, they're booked

A place to meet others, much more than a club
Exercise for adults, different from a gym or pub
Girls and ladies, dress as if a special date
Men and boy should arrive tidy, and never late

With many dance styles, both old and new
Plenty of options, though male and boy shortage true
Music the special factor, bringing smiles to the face
For those starting the process, you'll need time and place

He once had the password W Legend
He would use it for a year
You see his heart was breaking how could he move on
The only way he could became clear

He had to be change it to something else
It kept reminding him of how he felt
About a girl he once knew
And every time he was on that dating site he began to feel so blue


No other girl stood a chance
For as soon as he typed W Legend
It only took a glance and he was right back at the start
So change it but W Legend was always written on his heart

I need no love
Anymore,
I have had enough
Tears before

I leave
All my fears
And go out
To watch the amazing beauty
Of life

I leave to you
My unfinished story,
My unfinished painting,
My unfinished world.

I don’t expect from you
Even a word
Back
I say goodbye to you
Like I watch
The last train,
Steaming away
In the rain

Now it's your turn
To build your own story,
Where I am not.
I do not care
If you
Follow the wrong roads
Because slaughtered love
Cannot be forgiven
Either by people
Or Gods
