Sundown walk

 

A breath of fresh air at the
river was much appreciated 
before we are locked in for 
another two weeds, it was cold
breeze but well worth it.
I needed some fresh air, I felt
like a caged bird...

Back at it...

We are back at square "0".
Lockdowns, some work others not,
we can have gatherings but only 
outside in public parks and still keep
a certain bubble of max 5 - 7 people
from the same family.  Guess when
police sees a group of people they will
ask for their address and names? 
No holidays this year but then I would
be a millionaire by betting on numbers
of people who will not adhere to this law.
As you can see there's a little dusting of 
now on the ground but even the temperature
doesn't know how to react so one day is
-20 degree C and two days later it goes up 
to +2, go figure, it's making people crazy
and poor pets also.  
Have a great day everyone. 

Foolish me

How to be young and foolish in our
modern world is very easily done.
I jump of joy when I should give an
helping hand. I trust those who are
not worthy of my confidence, but then
I am the sucker who believes in all
stupidities that suround me blindly. 
This period is an eye opener when
death comes to your door steps fogging
all judgement and reasoning.  If through
the majority of your life you never 
respected a loved one or a faraway member
of the family, never gave them a call, 
never bothered to see them when these
were afflicted by sickness, deaths or 
misfortunes, why do you scream blue
murder if they do not put you on the
list of visitation the day that they passaway.
Why add miseries on those who are 
executing the death person wishes?
you are a bloody selfish who consider
yourself a "Primadonna" or "A rightous
person & demand respect".  Oh how I wish
to have a magic wand and just cancel you
from my sight so that I can mourn the person
in peace and quiet.  
My heart is bleeding due to your vanity and those
of your children who have no respect and as such
do not deserve my respect.  So respect and you will
be respected in return.  Your money does not appeal
to me, it's only paper,  but respect is a great virtue
which no amount of money can buy... 

Les cornes

 

Ne me nie pas ce plaisir de te
regarder dans ces reflets qui flottent
gentiment sur ce cour d'eau. Je me vois
comme au temps de nos amours, sans
prétentions, ni commentaires.  Tu me
laissais croire que j’étais l'amour de ta vie,
mais un beau jour tu est partis sans même
un regard, j’espère que tes yeux cacheraient
ta peine, mais moi je n'ai rien vu.  
L'eau qui moite ma bouche n'a aucun
goût quand tu m'embrassait éperdument,
tu me coupais le souffle comme un enfant
au sein de sa mère.
Je sais que j’étais vieux pour toi, mais têtu
tout les conseils pour sauve garder mon 
cœur je les aie bloquer et aujourd'hui 
je n'ai que moi même a me maudir...
Salut ma belle, au moins toi sois heureuse
dans les bras d'un autre, mais attention a 
les cornes qu'il peu te faire, car celles ci 
sont plus maudites que des baisers sans
valeur....

Emptiness

"Life is an empty book,

turning white pages

leaves you unfulfilled.

Books are made to capture

your sense of joy, sadness,

adventure or other times.

What is time for a book,

it's words taught for you and me,

for the people who don't                       

know the difference and the 

essence of life, but that the 

writer tries to convince you

that he is right and you the

reader is wrong...." 

2020 year to forget

 

    -       2020     - 

The year 2020 is a year that
history is made and will be 
remembered for countless generations
to come.
Is it our fault (humans) or nature
way to tell us to smarten up otherwise
it will be merciless compared to the
miseries and deaths ❤ 

we have endured these last months

with no ending in sight for quite a while.

Even so, there is still some who do not

believe and when they will it is too late.

Why should I pay for a few no brainer

around me, my city, my country, the hole

planet if you really think about.........  

Blue - Gold

If I was a bird young or old

male or female I would jump

of joy from one branch to another

now being able to see you running 

or hiding from me. 

We might not have the privacy of

the gone days, but at least now you

can admire my shinning plumage,

see my struggles with giving 

last instructions to our off spring

before leaving the nest.

O my chirpy friend just wait for me

so that together we can fly away

in this blue and golden sky to 

other skies just a beautiful and 

welcoming as this one..... 

 

The longest day

The longest day of the year is today .....
I prefer not saying which year it is
for my own benefit of not wanting
to remember.
Facing death on a dark street corner
marks everyone from first responders
to passersby.
No one should be allowed to take
matters in their own hands at the
detriments of the surrounding humans.
It's a shock seeing it in person and
can only sense the feelings of their
families or friends, strangers at
such a sight.
The person passing on has finished
their voyage on this planet leaving
behind devastation, abuse, disconsolate
humans not having taken time or
resources to make it easier for these
individuals take their last voyage,
but society is just leasing time here
on earth, so we can make this stay
a great one or a miserable one.
Great when you have health, a little
money does help also, but it can be
hell if failing health is your shadow
daily, born poor or from the wrong
side of life in general.
Some have it easy, others have to
struggle every single day not
escaping their destiny. 
We can't have a perfect life that's for
sure, but if we don't help ourselves
come out and live a clean,honest and
purposeful life then better not be
born at all. LIFE is as soon as we
are able to fend ourselves 

and what we make of it.
Drugs are NO ONE'S FRIEND,
unless you suffer physical pains
beyond your control, but those
who suffer because they wanted to
imitate or try it for fun, then sorry I
do not sympathize with you....
WE KNOW THE DANGERS OF
IT, SO STAY CLEAN IT'S MUCH
MORE BENEFICIAL TO YOURSELF
AND ANYONE ELSE AROUND
YOU, WHO LOVE YOU AND WILL
MISS YOU ON THE LONGEST DAY
OF THEIR LIFE, 

NOT YOURS YOU ARE ALREADY GONE.....

The fallen leaves....

music video  Just listen  

Guess there are no words to add, after seeing this
gentleman who had lost his other half just a few 
weeks before ...

The promise

We have shared our days from cradle
You did hold my hands countless times
but also you stole my heart for a long time.
You showered me with blessings after
drying a few tears over the years.
but now you just told me we need to
part, you flying with those gorgeous angels
leaving me behind to await when you 
will come for me on a white angel horse
just like we promised to one another 
in our separate cradles. 

Darkness

"The sky is ink dark,
with flashlights coming
and going, maybe with
luck a shooting star will
pass by you, the lone owl
singing it's nightly song
scarring little animals to hide
further in their hole,
a lost cricket shivering from
the cool night keeps on
singing without missing
a note, but inside the tiny
house there's a bright fire
to warm up the night air
and who knows who
will dream with a "clair de lune"
hearing just a few notes in their
hearts joining together and
dancing to the tune of love...."

Burst, do not be scared...

Strangeness

What is more strange than seeing
a lonely fluffy cloud in the sky...
I'm still searching for a correct meaning.

Bubbles

Nature is bubbling...
will it explodes 
or just go back to sleep???

Mysteries

Let me take time after a
tumultuous night and day
of thunders and lighting
in my skies to write a little
of the feelings assailing my
mind.
Some humans adore the rumble of
the rolling bangs high above our heads
shaking the hardest men with 
numerous experience in their bones.
When least expected super flashes
can be seen emerging from the
depth of these sky monsters, a 
combination worth the bigest show
no man could equal. 
No the least with windy force joining
in to be believable of a major furry
breaking all in it's passage and 
devastating lives long nature. 
The ocean rebels, it's habitant going
deep down the abyss of the ocean
for safety, not caring who is above
or below them, safety comes first
they are wise  behind our reason,
not chancing like humans do.                   


To be continued in a few days....

The Judge

Not all lives has a silver shining,
take a slide down memory lane.
Old memory lane never fails,
it reminds you of that
lived life to your liking or
disliking, you are the judge.
No jury to condemn you or
to absolve your doings.
Just your book of life to read
and analyze. Be harsh if you
need it, be kind if you deserve it.

Yellow rose

The bright nature of yellow
makes these roses excellent for 
cheering people up and celebrating friendship. 
This colour depicts joy and platonic love as a constant 
rejuvenation of spirit. In saying that, birthdays, 
graduations and new beginnings 
are the perfect occasions 
for yellow roses. 
Sometimes, yellow roses can also mean 
farewell or good luck.


I was curious as to the meaning of a yellow rose gift,
it will be up to the giver to explain it.....

Balloon

Like this balloon
I feel my life drifting
away and I don't know
how to stop it.
Might it be my stupidity
or my believed intelligence
that I do not have, but
either way, I can't stop it
just as I can't stop the
passing of time....

Short passage

I loved you so much,
but you just  went,

went like a comet
leaving traces of it's passage

only for a short while.

Now I'm alone,

you are not mine anymore

so I just look for another

but no one is like you....

What am I....

I'm not a painter or an artist at that,
my eyes makes me see the beauties
of this world, but my fingers don't know
how to use a brush and man made colors.
As an old person, I too joined the frenzy of
the cameras and run around my living area
for something to capture, sure I find beauty
or not so beautiful but it capted my attention
and as such it's my duty to emprison them in
my camera.  On many occasions I miss my 
shot, normal since I learned alone and proud
of what I find. The alleys are my home,
the gardens of many acres or just a little 
patch of green will always be my challenge.
A little bird perched on a branch, a squirrel
devastating a veggie garden, a dog not
chasing a cat, but is taking control of his
favorite spot and don't like my prying on them.
Streets were deserted for a while, today
they returned to be the monstrous  
cavorting tortures for everyone, we all
complain, knowing full well that the next day
it will still be there, the holes, the cones,
the broken branches, the garbage left 
behind for city to clean up, but they too
are feed up, so it just lays there to annoy
me and dirtying my poor cameras. 

Keep cool

Keep cool and enjoy this reprieve from
the pandemic.
Have a great day.

Howling wind

I finally managed to create a video
and be able to post it.
It's really nothing much since we are
limited in time wise, but it sure is
great and promising for future posts.

Golden silence

The only good thing that I will remember
of this covid-19 period is the golden
silence of the city, the brightest sky seen
full of stars and the birds singing their
joy at having a peaceful life while
figuring out where to built their nest
in a city without people around to
disturb them.

Tulip

Lonely I might look
shining I might be
bloomed too early
I now face a death penalty.
These four lines apply to
all that has life let it be
nature,animals,humans
even the moon and stars
were bright when no
pollution was around,
but now that it's starting
to go back to a semblance
of normalcy, our skies lost
it's shining stars and breathable
air.........

Glorious day

What a glorious day
when one can hear
water flow, birds singing,
no car to pollute my space.
Like all wonderful time in
once life, all come to an end.
I'm lucky to be alive, that's
the major event of this new year.
No predictions to warn us of
what would layaway for the past
months, only dreamers were
optimistic, only pessimists were
seeing gloom and doom.
Life is a strange passage that
will not tell or confirm what's
in store for us all.   It's a
"Take today at face value,
keep marching on,
hope for the best
and don't be discouraged for the
future, what will be -  will be..."

Breaking point

Time has come
while time as passed.
A broken heart was left behind in
million of pieces shinning in
the morning light.
Those who leave are the best,
taken too soon by a high hand.
Their love is never forgotten
and their words resonated in the
past leaving us only a future to treasure.
Will I stand to their standards,
knowing full well that it is
impossible, my good will is
not enough, hence my trying
and never reaching them.
Oh heaven where no one as
come back to describe it
leaving my imagination run
wild, listening to the wind
caress my face, my feet light
and painless on the carpeted grass,
running down the valley,
tasting the river of youth but
never keeping me there.
I will run, run and run again
and again until my bones
are so fragile that the smallest
pebble will be my breaking point
and then I will lay down resting
until the angels come and show
me the way home.....

NB: Photo is not mine, should owner
recognize himself, please e-mail me
& I will give you credit for it.

Rainbow

The colors that all should affix in their windows.
Have a great day.

Be creative

Don't get bored,
be creative,
don't sleep too much
but take short walks
keeping distances
from others.
Don't be afraid to
change side of a road
when you see people,
but smile and wave
it means a lot to the
other passerby.
Grab a camera and
snap at anything that
catches your eyes.
Always keeping your
distance, you have
hand sanitizer use it,
often but soap just a
good job. 
It's a matter of being
creative in keeping
yourself busy that will
get us all out of this
"real" mess. 
Don't be stupid it does
not serve any purpose.

Sundown

"The sky is my nation,
the sun my light,
the stars are my friends,
the moon my confident"
no matter who or from where
you are...

This shot is to get away from
the blues of being home bound
for the last 3 days.

Woman

Today is your day
even if it should be everyday.
You are the rock of life
at times not always appreciated.
But be assured we respect you,
love you and pray for you.
A woman always knows how to
either put peace or joy,
but the stupidity of humans
does not always recognize it.
Thank you for being here,
and in you we trust our lives
and well being.
Let me kiss you on behalf of
the world on this day....

Today

Today outside, is full of singing birds,
squirrels running around coupled with
a few barks from the dog down the street.
It's a blue sky day with little clouds just
to break the intensity of the blue, but I
do not feel so good. When there's no
peace in a family it's as if the world is
coming to an end.  I'm against you,
you are against me, children taking 
parents side are against each other.
What are we coming to...
I totally disagree with siblings claiming
full rightness because they're the oldest
or of a specific gender.  At times parents
are in the wrong either for lack of conscience or
lack of will.  They create trouble without
knowing and the day they leave all those
troubles are left behind for the children to
resolve.  How I detest these situations,
and hoping that I am fair to myself and my
children and grandchildren for when I am
not of this world, I hope that their fights are
not my doing.
Let the flow of life, not be stopped by 
pride, once one closes it's eyes forever,
one can't say more, "I'm sorry we should
have got along a lot better in this short
passage of earth...". 
Let your pride rest at the right moment,
we are all here on a short journey.                           

The condor

Press :   Listen to my song: 

I am embraced by the wind...
like a condor, I'm born free
high up in the mountains or 
low on the plains. I have no rules,
no barriers to stop my runs in the
sun to try and reach the sun...
my nights are free and undisturbed
so I rest my head covered by my
wings. My eyes are my friends 
they keep me alive at all times.
The moon is my companion while
the wind will bring me treasures
for my young ones.  Oh how I long 
those few drops of rain to bath
and cool my strong spirit.  I can 
jump over a pond or a stream for
food but only if my growling stomach
is heard.  Do not cower at my sound
between the mountains, cause I am
the condor of these mountains and
I will share them with you if you
show respect for me... 

Yesterday when I was young

Classics will never die,

we just put them in a trunk

and go find them when need

arise....

Seems the love I've known has always been

The most destructive kind
Guess that's why now I feel so old
Before my time.
Yesterday when I was young
The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue.
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game,
The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame.
The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned
I always built to last on weak and shifting sand.
I lived by night and shunned the naked light of the day
And only now I see how the years ran away.
Yesterday when I was young
So many happy songs were waiting to be sung,
So many wild pleasures lay in store for me
And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see.
I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out,
I never stopped to think what life was all about
And every conversation I can now recall
Concerns itself with me and nothing else at all.
Yesterday the moon was blue

And every crazy day brought something new to do.
I used my magic age as if it were a wand
And never saw the waste and emptiness beyond.
The game of love I played with arrogance and pride
And every flame I lit too quickly, quickly died.
The friends I made all seemed somehow to drift away
And only I am left on stage to end the play.
There are so many songs in me that won't be sung,
I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue.
The time has come for me to pay for
Yesterday when I was young...

Flower power

Is there a conclusion as to the healing power
of a flower...
Me, you and all of us during the brutal winter
months are like birds searching for nectar
for a ray of sunshine that seems illusive,
sure we can catch quite a bit of flakes,
frozen rain, at times even a frost or too (I hope it's
no one's case since frostbites are dangerous with
a lasting consequence).
So lucky those who either have a touch with house
flowers or who are close by to a botanical garden,
where one can spend hours looking, admiring,
sniffling the delicate fragrance of the winter flowers.
That's what I can flower power to recharge our mental
batteries and keep up going until spring comes along
and donates us flowers blooming in the nature for all
of us to finally enjoy for quite a while until we are forced
to go back to the inside category of flowers for solance
and peace of mind.

Falling star

On a starry night stop at the sight
of this nightly beauty, open your eyes
along with your heart,
counting the stars is worthless
you would certainly miss some
they are not all in the sky
a few came to shine in your eyes.
Stretch your arm while
opening your hand to
collect the falling star
reciting the same words
"I love you". It's warmth
in your palm is magic
keeping you prisoner of
it's sensibility. Oh keep it
tight telling all your
deepest secrets, your joys,
your desires of a joyous
life that you keep dreaming
nightly.
"O little falling star,
don't leave me tonight,
at least for tonight be my
confident, my friend
listening to the sweet words
that only you can hear,
little star let me sleep with
you at my side at least for
one blessed night. Little
star don't leave me alone
I will die if you go back to
your life...".

Peace and quietness

Just give me a moment,
yes only a moment to take in this view,
oh how I feel serene with myself.
When will I sing a joy so immense
to the world that is around me.
Please don't disturb my concentration
I try to sing with the birds who are waiting
for me.  Under my feet I feel the earth move
so I salute this day with a frenetic dance,
my feet are like an angel's wing moving
along the whims of the wind, oh how
I love it, who cares about the curious looking
on, I don't see them I just see the crack of
light that reaches me,pushing me to keep on
dancing.  Who cares if the seagulls laughs at
me or the dog is wandering who this crazy
lady is.  I feel my breath reach the world
surrounding me, embracing me entering way
down to my heart and both are singing to the
mysterious mandolin playing silently by the
blind man who looks after me & taking in
all my steps so not to hurt anyone who
stops, laughs and keep going...
That's my way of reaching peace and silent
quietness that envelopes me and only me
on the shores of this flowing water, god
bless me and the river for being my friend...
