Poetic album
1See my talents glow
I find happiness to open this amazing site
to share my talent bringing words to light
it gives me strength to rise and fight
I use the weapon of intelligence to sight
I know how to play with the ball
to get to my feet whenever I fall
the silence within respond to answer my call
each day to bathe with the sunlight glow
the words of inspiration like nectar to flow
the seeds of wisdom will make me grow
the hidden truth will I come to know
2 Loss of a friend
Together we took the same path to follow
we shared our dreams both in joy and sorrow
Through dark tunnels we ventured brave
in pursuit of our goals be our frienship save
Though our talents were different we made them one
to bring art and poetry several contests having won
Thick as blood our beliefs kept us to comb the sky
for the bond we promised until either of us must die
Until that unfortunate day his soul was taken away
the unforgettable moments remains up till today
I can never find someone to fill the empty space
he left behind many challenges alone I must face
The true meaning of friendship be his sacrifice
to surrender his life for me to change my vice
3 [ Hidden in the closet ]
Hidden in the closet
is the mystery of my soul
a message my father left me
as he exited the earth
the doors remain locked
with all his journals sealed
a daily pattern of habit
he used to remove the darkness
from his heart
hidden in the vineyard
are the memories he left
the birds and butterflies\
with the words of inspiration
he found in his heart
they joy of happiness to his
treasure ha has deliberately
left for me to seek wisdom
and walk as a sage
to pattern the footprints
I must follow
hidden in the little cottage
behind the curtain
are the dreams which comforted
him in time of difficulties
when there was little hope
to escape the penalty
for all his mistakes
that i will seek knowledge
to climb the mountain of fear
and be successful
in all my endeavors
hidden in the shadow of the grave
are the colorful thoughts of instincts
that i can use as a weapon
to stand up against oppression
to shoulder my burden
he gave to me a mantra for me
to use and empower my mind
to keep the light of the universe
alive burning in every breath
of mine to survive any storm
and lift myself out of
any turmoil.
4The candle of inspiration
Deep within the silence of my soul is a light
that accompany me through the darkness bright
like a flame balancing in the shadow of time
I have to complete my goal and take what is mine
I will not curse the darkness but will seek to forgive
that their time be extended from what they give
I will always be faithful to nature for what it bring
like the fragrance from the flowers blossom in spring
I light a candle each night to use as an image of the moon
that the arrow of death will avoid my target to take me soon
to cross my hands and offer the invisible gift from my heart
I ask for no reward in return except for peace when I depart.
