Lost angels



When a child is called to heaven
there is no sensitivity left in the 
hearts of parents.
A child is the fruit of love, a 
continuation of our soals and a hope
for our old days. 
Why are we loosing children in wars,
natural disasters and killing them for
no apparent reasons.  Killings of 
2 small angels who were at a daycare
is the most excrutiating pain for the
parents, people who take care of these
children and first aid responders who
are helpless in saving them...

Solitude

Life is an island of solitude,
if you know how to fish 
you shall get all  your pleasures
of this mortal world offers you.
It does not take much to make you happy
to have a full life and good and bad
times, but then only you are the master 
of your life and happiness 
even with simple things
that come your way..

Real or not...

It's been a while that I did not go out for 
multiple reasons. A little might be due to
the fact that with age my bones do not  want
to obey me anymore. 
On the first cold or a slight wind, my mind
starts rebelling and keeps telling me "Is it 
really necessary to go out...?".
So I engulf some fresh air from an open window
look around to see if activities go on around my
backyard and would you guess it this year there
are no birds playing around with the bird feeders.
So all this is to say, listen to your body, and just
work with what you have in your own home.
A little like this plastic rose that keeps me company
until I can go out and search for real roses and
flowers to immortalize with my small camera.

Cheap life


When you call a human being a friend
without meaning it, then you are 
cheating life.
You profess your love, 
then stab them in their back, 
that's criminal.
You put on a pretty face, sweet words
to better murder another life.
What is LIFE worth for you?
It's a cheap commodity under your
dirty hands.  It doesn't create a dent
in your mind that you are right and
everyone else is wrong if they don't
adhere to your thinking.
We reached a point where we all
cry for justice, but there's no justice
available for the pettiness we show
for ourselves and others.
We promote individuals hoping in
their fairness without thinking they
are just as unfair to this world but
they are excellent actors in convincing
of their rightness to the world, but
do not try to comprehend their reasoning
you would loose the little justice that
you are hoping for...
Money is the EVIL of evil  and no one
wants to hear it....

RIP Lisa Marie


When a young child looses a parent
it's a pandora box that closes for ever.
When you loose a famous father 
it's a pain that is hiding in a corner of
your heart just at the mention of his name,
you hear his voice, his laughs or his
cries, his nonsense jokes or even a soft
goodnight, those are your memories 
and you cry about your loss of that time
that could have been yours and his.
You too lost a child and your heart
rebelled but then you had to care for
the others who were depending on you.
You silenced you heart picking up all
the pieces shattered and unmendable,
just the way you did at the loss of your
dad. 
You have finally reached a point by
leaving this mortal world and went to
join your dad and son.  Now your heart
is mended and you can sleep in peace
in their arms.

Future holding of 2023


Wish I had prepared something a little
more original to WISH A HAPPY AND
PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR 2023 ALONG
LOT'S OF HEALTH. 
Unfortunately I don't have great belief
in my own wishes.  The world is upside down
and humans also.  
But let me think positive at least for this 
transitional night.

On a silent night



On a silent night a new born arrived.
Peace was palpable in a furious and 
bostorious town.
Why is it so silent to be almost scary
and unusual time in early winter night.
Chimneys can be counted by the 
release of white smoke and went to 
the sky on a starry night.
I dream or is it a sweet melody that
I can hear or is it just an imagination
from the old tales of my grandmother.
I wonder the streets confident that on
this silent night no harm will fall on 
me, I feel protected and confident that
that on this silent night only good hearts
roam the street of this silent night in
a silent town.

Fearless

On a misty night engulfed
in silence only my taughts
were wondering around.  My steps
had no directions, my eyes no views
just a mist dancing around me.
Why did I leave my heaven to
run after dreams that will never
materialize.  The whistling of a gentle
breeze mixing with the heaviness of
the mist, my body kept going and going
on without counting the steps or
the tiredness of my old bones.
Sundowns are for young lovers who
still have faith in their future, the
warmth of the sun going down is
not enough for me.  So I stop counting
steps, I kept on my normal pace to
eventually arrive at a destination that
is not mine or is it...

NB: Photo not mine but if owner recognize
it please send me an e-mail & I will give
you full credit.

Lost


What do I have to loose,
since some of my dreams I
have renounced, of my body
I have never paid much attention.
Now that the age has finally
reached me, only my soul is
still in the air transported to 
the thousands whims of the
wind.  I can scream, I can 
put up a tantrum, but no one
is there for me. I hide like
a rabbit in my hole and fear
the unknown world.  Do I
keep dreaming or do I just
put an end to this miserable
life.  A little star one night
fell from the darkened sky
put a light and a twinkle
in my eyes that really showed
me that LIFE WAS STILL WORTH
LIVING...

Searching the sky




Not one star is adorning the sky
for company tonight.

The moon is slowing disappearing
behind thousand clouds
shading the world in darkness.

Alone I shine 
while the night dominates 
until the daylight appearance
making it's  slow arrival.

You are like the moon 
that shines in the sky 
on a starless night for all of
us who dare lift our eyes to the
blackened sky.

What to do....




That's a million dollar question?
What do you do when you realize
that the person you've been with for
the last 51 years has no more will to
live and is just pulling down everyone
with him.
It's sickening, it's sad, it's intolerable
since there seems to be nothing that
will take him out of the deep depression.
We try to talk, to reason, to be gentle
but to no avail.  Will not ask for help
but in a way kind of agree with him
since the covid period it's hard to get
in touch with doctors or even see them
face-to-face. A phone call is absolutely
not the same.  But what do I do?
Short of just letting him go down is own
path then I feel guilty.

Those who suffer




A cure was not invented yet
so in a soft whisper a voice
was heard, "come to me",

With tears flowing down our
eyes, you softly went away,
our love for you did not manage
to make you stay. A heart of gold
you were and you decided to 
stop beating, your hard working
hands are now still.  Our broken
hearts are the message that 
only the best are taken away
before their time....

Remember


Peace to our young and old men and women
who to save our lives and world gave their own
lives.  
What is my country going through these
days, no one really knows, is it greed, is it craziness,
or just people forgot what a war and suffering is....
Populations have not learned a lesson from our
deaths, we stood tall and took bullets, bombs,
shells, we sank to the bottom of dark oceans,
we froze to death on mountains that were not 
even ours, we stood side-by-side in trenches
days on, we suffered hunger and cried for lost
limbs.  We wrote letters to our mothers, fathers,
brothers, sisters, children, wives telling them
that all was not so bad...
Why am I yelling "STOP" you crazy fools
wars are destructions, killing of innocents doesn't
do nothing to better the world, it just distroys 
humans.  US under the ground, can't smell the
fresh air, the blue skies, the feel of a snow flake
on our faces, WE DON'T HAVE A FACE, we
gave it for YOU and only YOU.

Waiting


While time goes by 
nature itself is lost
to the craziness of humans. 
He who does not respect nature, 
nature will not respect humans
wishes and lashes it's fury upon
them...
These days we see calamities 
all over our globe.  But still
humans do not get the lesson.....

Nature's fire

 

Fires that captures the imagination
and pleasure of the photographer is
nothing compared to the show put on
by nature.  After a harsh summer heat or
a lousy weather for days on, the animals
start to leave for warmer pasture or for
reproducing then here comes the explosion
of colors, bright red, oranges or light green
mixed with darker colors, it creates such a
painting that not even the MOST famous
artist can even come close.

Broken


The tree of life is 

BROKEN

Do you see a piece that is intact

what will it take to make it hole 
again?

Wish upon a cloud

 

Will a wish upon a cloud bring me something?
What could I wish that mother nature could
be king and gentle enough to me.
I'm sitting down on a grassy patch in a city park
looking at the sky and day dreaming about 
absolutely what I could expect from the sky.
A shy sunray caresses my face and I feel happy
to be alive, while a gentle breeze softly moves
by gray hair and shows all the highlights of 
my graying status to the world to see. I do not
care anymore if the world will say "who is that
old lady and why does she enjoy life under
such a gorgeous blue sky with gentle giants trees
showing the old leaves putting on their best parure
to the world.  I'm not a painter so I can't render
full homage to the beauty that my eyes are feasting
on.  But all presents are short lived and before I know
it I have to leave this paradise oasis and return to
the reality of life that is waiting for me....

Autumn season

 


Autumn is a season of death 
and colors. For humans autumn is the
best time of the year to leave this world,
in a fashion of colors that no painter
can try to achieve.
Nature itself starts the sleeping ritual,
the sheading of it's life and gets ready to
sleep and gather it's strength of regiuvenation.
Never fear as long as there is a seed of life
it will germanate after a long wintery sleep.

Beauty

 

What a phenomenal word is 

BEAUTY

Not all know the true meaning until
we are faced with the stupidity of humans.
Beauty, the real beauty, is the one inside
hidden from viewers but felt by the
surrounding feelings of a beautiful heart,
We can marvel, we can comment and
at times even disregard beauty just
because we are incapable of accepting
that it is not ours and are envious of
those who posses this quality.
