Poem
L’amour est la poésie des sens -Honoré de Balzac Translation: Love is the poetry of the senses. At dawn, I look through the window at the cerulean sky…enjoy a few moments of perfect Tranquility. Today sky melancholic, mirroring my heart, my mind, my memories - my present, my past - all I can see in the azure clouds softly floating by! I lost you many years ago! Why, and how!

My Love, would you believe, till today I wake up at vermillion dawn, and those memories come flooding back like rolling emerald waves at the beach! resonate like melodies serenading from a temple-bell... Our love was true and pure, our love was the best thing ever could happen, to my life, and probably to your life! But…..
