Same sky - different horizon

We all live under the same sky, 
but we don't all have the same horizon. 


"let the sun set,
rest from your long day,
give it enough time
to reach my horizon
for a while before
I send it back in your sky...."

Silence....

"Up in the sky all is dark,
down below all is quiet.
A soft drizzle of rain tries to
wash the ground,
attenuating the rising silent cries.
Crows hide from my walk afraid to
disturb my wandering eyes.
Turning to the right,
turning to the left,
I can't find the player
of the lamenting bugle.
It's there, I can hear it's strident
sound in the quietness
of this land....."

Lonely

Loneliness is a danger to your
mind.
Never give up on hope,
life is short but with loneliness
it becomes hell.

The concert

I left my heart in a concert.
What a concert  it was,
not always in tune
but no one really cared
I left the concert behind me
to follow an adventure full
of off beat music in my dreams.
Alone in a canoe gently sawed
by a cool breeze, I cried for 
not hearing the concert
calling the notes to the wind
but looking a the shimmering
dancing lights on the water
I realized that they were dancing
at the tune of nature's music
playing only for those who wanted
to hear it or that could not hear it
physically........

Cry of help

Why this bold image and colors!

strange how when we start to sink

nothing seems to pull us up again.

Nothing seems right and all seems wrong.

Ones mind sees black one day

and white at another day, there's

no in between...

Others seem to enjoy life while me in my

corner can't stop sulking, I'm angry

at the world for not seeing that I'm looking

for a speck of help.

While time passes by in good times and 

hard times, no one, but no one, wants to

tend me a hand.  

Do I turn myself to junk

or do I stay clean, 

do I run or do I stay still.

No answers for now since I'm sure that

none will come tomorrow.

I can't cry and can't scream for fear of

being tagged as a bad human being. 

Do I turn right or do I turn left for asking

for a simple little gesture of help...

I will just sit down and wait for nature

to take it's course and then and only then

I will be free of this world......

Good Morning Sunshine

In a field of sunflowers,
swinging gently to the mood of the wind,
a happy song can be heard miles around
it's the sunflowers calling the insatiable 
friend the bee to come and start eating.
The clouds are there giving respite from
the heat and the flies are waiting their
turn to explore the immense field of seeds.
I look around and say, Good Morning Sunshine....

Shadow

In the shadow of my twin
I live in solitary.
Half of my soul is dying
while I'm still thriving
to survive.
Complications do occur
it's only in my mind
they keep flourish, my body
rejects my grasps.
Lonely I cry and scream
at the whims of the wind.
Skys stole the life of my
eyes and tempests occur
trashing me around.
Tall I stand in the sight
of my home the eternal field
of joy....

Baby it's hot

It's so hot, that I joined the youngsters today in this water slide....

Yahooooooooo it was fun...

Blue

 

A blue as such 

for a person needs to fulfill
a dream and feel FREEDOM
from the daily hustle & bustle
of it's ordinary life.

Shock

Shock is a merciful condition.
It allows you to get through disaster
with a necessary distance between
you and your feelings....".

Author not known to me,
but the disaster of Lac Megantic
is real and these words apply
to the "T".

One Day

One day I will join you
way up in the sea of dark blue
together we will create magic
for all the good children who
turn their eyes on our passing by.
The moment will be exciting
only to those viewers who still believe
in the passing of magic time.
Do not leave me here,
too many want me gone,
but I can't go unless I'm called by
the creator.....

"Waiting for the beauty of the night to fall on us, 
you my friend, may be very sad.
 
The rainbow colors of the sundown
has not yet arrived to charm you.

The sun is still around for many hours. 
So let's pray that we live through it. 
Absolutely no one should bear this
dreadful inner heat.
 
Our lives filled of dramas 
would not crash down around you and me,
don't let it fall apart.
 
Until sundown all is burning,
so my little friend just cry, cry, cry 
and be ready for the cooling night ahead of you"
 

Seven seas

The seven seas are my home,
the islands are my playgrounds,
ocean habitants are my friends,
but most of all the sky belongs on my back,
and the stars play checkers with my mind".

This is the world we live in - sad or happy
we have to make the best of it - if we want
to live in peace with ourselves.

One Day

"One day,
I will sleep under
one of these stones,
shading myself from
the rain and the sun,
some days I will say hello
to the moon after finishing
counting all the shinny
stars, I would like to join
the morning rainbow that
starts at the foot on this stone,
but I can't give any orders,
I just hope to see all of it again
tomorrow, so that I can sing
with the tiny birds that comes
to visit me everyday until the
end of time" ....

Fog

I was lost,

lost in a thick fog,

but I could see clearly,

the sky was blue

the trees fully dressed

branches were smooth,

but it was my eyes that

were lost in a thick fog.

Slowly after closing &

opening my eyes a few

times, I finally emerged

and could see the warm

sun of life again.

Don't tell me...

Please have patience in reading this:
"Please don't tell me you know how I feel,
unless you have lost a loved one too.
Please don't tell me my broken heart will heal.
Because that is just not true,
Please don't tell me my loved one is in a better place,
thought it is true, I want him here with me,
Don't tell me someday I;ll hear his voice,
see his face,
Beyond today I cannot see
Don't tell me it is time to move on,
Because I cannot
Don't tell me to oface the fact he is gone
because denial is something I can't stop
Don't tell me to be thankful for the time I had
because I wanted more
Don't tell me when I am my old self
you will be glad
I'll never be as I was before
What you can tell me is you
will be here for me.
That you will listen when I talk to my loved one
you can share with me my precious memories.
You can even cry with me for a while,
And please don't hesitate to say his name
becuase it is something I long to hear every day.
Friend, please realize that I can never be the same.
But if you stand by me
You may like the new person I become someday...."

Flying from the nest

Transported by impulse,
I try to fly back home,
amid the traffic in the sky,
finding one's nest is the
easiest of all, that is
if the wind has not blown
it away....

Circles and curves

Life is not sharp and well defined,
but rather curves, ups, downs,
new life, older life,
we all live under the same umbrella,
mine might be full of holes
while others have a shinny new umbrella,
but at the end we both get our feet wet.
So be happy with what you have,
and life to fullest of your ability.

Highest mountain

 

On the highest mountain I climbed,

just enough to sit on a cloud,

I sat and let myself slide down

to the greatest light....

Mind

 

The mind is a complex 

terminal of electricity

with a simple displacement

or event it will make it

explode. 

Your mind is fragile yet 

not appreciated.

My mind is mine and mine

only, I am the sole guardian

of it and should I make it fail

it will die......

Woman

 

A woman is made to love

and not to understand her....

Even the moon can't figure

out a woman!

Life

A spot were one could spend
hours just dreaming.
The birds and the water in harmony.
The green and the wind for company.
The sun and the clouds to shelter me.
But as always it's only a dream
and that will suffice me.....

Life is a bitch....

"The right to search for truth implies also a duty:
one must not conceal any part of what one has
recognized to be true...."
Albert Einstein

Keep going in life

 

"Life is full of surprises,

good ones and

not so good ones,

life forces you to keep going,

there is no such a thing to

terminate it before it's time,

just as the world turns without

stopping....".

Change

"Change is the only thing in life that's
PERMANENT...."

Future

"There is no future,
it's only the past
that you re-work
the day after...."

Life is like a poker game

Life is the reflection of a poker game...
You never know what card will
come into your hands.

Spring is finally here

Spring season of renew,
freshness and vibrant colors.
No one can be impassive facing
this new season.
Let us start to enjoy spring before
we get tired of it.

Light within

Like this blooming flower open itself to the light,
let US all open our eyes, our mind and spirit
to the light that shines in each and everyone of us...

Thank you to all who come & go in this blog
I really appreciate it.

An olive branch for you or your talisman...

 

You that I don't know

Let me offer you this

small gift from my

heart to yours.

Yes it's an olive branch

that given with love is

worth all that I can't 

materially offer or give you.

So accept it and keep it

near you, hopefully it

will become your talisman

until next year when I hope to

give you another one.

Walk

"Do not fear natural shadows,
listen to the sound of the wind,
let the crackling of the snow under your feet
accompany you in your freedom walk.
Allow the rays of the sundown follow you
until you lay down in the warmth of your
home and just let it sink in
until next time........... "

Yesterday and today - winter and spring

Yesterday,
yesterday was winter,
a fierce and blasting winter,
All was white and miserable,
yes yesterday was winter.
Yesterday was just a figment of my
immagination or maybe not.
Yesterday is just the opposite of 
today that seems and smells of 
spring.
Birds are chirping and confused
with this white blanket compared
to colorful flowers that should be 
standing hi. 
Yesterday they hid from winter,
today they are jumping from a
branch to the other 
delighting passersby and feather
friends.
Yesterday is gone and today is 
a new adventure for all.

Liberty

Liberty a feeling we come with in this world,
feeling liberated like a new born.
Little do we know that "LIBERTY"
has a very high price.
Liberty is not for everyone,
but mostly for those mostly fortunate.
Take 5 minutes of your life
and play at being FREE,
then you are considered either
crazy or a dreamer.
Which one are you?

8th of march

8th of March...
Universally remembered day of the
WOMAN.
I have nothing special to show or written,

I remembered this gorgeous lilac wild flower
in summer time bording the shores of lakes and rivers
or just abandoned fields.
"Like this flower,
a woman is there
for a reason,
enjoy with her life,
admire in good and bad times,
and let life do the rest...".
A Hug to all women on the planet.

A child's pain

Why do man permits PAIN.
It is heart shattering to go
in a ward at any children's
hospital around the world...
These poor angels have done
nothing to merit such a cross.
You see faces filled of tears,
limbs that are not fit even
in your wildest dreams.
Bald children, silent children,
chatty children, those who
have given up and those
who don't know what's their
future.
Children put a smile when
you feel like jumping out a
window or robbing their pain.
A child is not made for
atrocities of the side effects
of their medication.
A child will take your tears and
keep it with him, so he does not
see them falling on is own
gentle face the moment he grabs
the wings of an angel bigger then
him in another world. 
A child should be a celebration
of life ....

Feelings

Beauty is when you feel a little tingle
all over and you don't know where
it comes from.
"Let the songs of nature reach your ears,
close your eyes very tight and imagine
what's at the other end of the horizon,
breath in every moment life concedes you,
it's a gift and not an acquisition.
Touch the most miserable creature
that crosses  your path and together
become vagabonds of the world,
stand up tall for your rights and life will
be good until you reach the eternal place
of no return"....

NB: Many thanks to TonyBBad

Green - Hope

Verde - Green
color of hope,
new life,
color of joy
and laughters,
who would not stop
and feel a fresh breath
of air fill your lungs
after long and gray
days of winter.....

Welcome to my world

 

This is my world,

I can only love it,

or I can only hate it.

It's a wold never the same

just like my world,

that keep on turning 

that I like it or not.

So why complain,

rant or scream.

Just stop here with me,

let your eyes wonder through

this window on the frozen

world and multiple sky colors

that illuminates your eyes and

your heart.

Breed in all the fresh air

and let your mind sing - no

one will know if there's a false

note some along the line....

Mirage - illusion

A mirage, an illusion
it all depends on your views.
It may look bad for you,
it may look good for me,
but in reality it's how your heart and
your eyes sees it.
I could have been alone on that peer,
awaiting for a ray of sunshine,
of a breeze escaping from the broken ice,
no wildlife around to shatter my illusions,
just silence broken by the clicks of my
camera and the shattering of my teeth
to the frigid cold.
The sky was covered only with a white
veil letting my illusions wonder around
not knowing where they were going to
fumble in the thickness of my illusions.

More shovels please

It's just keeps coming down....
The wind is owling,
the snow bites,
my feet slip & slides
while the birds laugh
and hide....
I'm stubborn in fighting
nature, but nature is
flexing her muscles,
my eyes burn
my hands are frozen
my nose is turning white
all the while I insist on
shoveling those twinkling
little star shaped snowflakes.

Winterland

 

When you have the winter blues, 

just step outside,

walk around,

open your  mind & lungs wide 

try to catch a snowflake 

on your tongue,

like an innocent child 

andit will dissolve all 

your blues....

I taught....

Why oh why did I think,
think of what my feet did
not feel,
now I know that my thinking
was so absurd that I stopped
thinking.
It was not snow that I was
thinking about, but rather
something a little more rough
and hot......

Life

Life is looking through a window.
Don't miss your opportunity
to have a full life.
Life is very short....
