  • Torture (c)

    I am a road at night and
    in silence I relive the
    memories of the footsteps of the day.

    I listen to the heaviness
    of the soldiers’ boots,
    of the way they hated and killed--

    the country praised them
    called them heroes--
    God, in shame hastens to hide
    Its memory under the green grass!

    In the morning the sunshine greets
    me with a smile. My eyes rain tears
    and I continue to talk to my heart!©

    The orchids are blooming after months of hibernation.

    This one is a rare one. It only gets one bloom but stays alive for weeks at a time.

    I love the speckles on this one. As if someone threw blood all over the white petals. And finally, IMG_6586

    I just love this one. The almost pink petals have an orange center. These orchids are among my favorites.

    Hope the fathers among my readers had a great day today. Have a great week!

  • The Winning Love©

    The four chambers of my heart
    have spread their sails out
    to the idle winds, and ask
    that they be transported to
    the nebulous island of ANYWHERE!

    Men cry that they have loved
    and they have lost.
    I found my love at the edge
    of a desert this late in life, and I say
    I have loved, and I have won!

    My life has found its music and songs-
    the wind-laden chambers of my heart
    filled with ethereal nectars, revel in
    the beauty of EVERYWHERE– and my life,
    oh so rich with the love it has won!
