Premium Member Our Love As Memories

* This for is called Acrostic, but this particular one forms a phrase on BOTH ends - I hope you enjoy it! *

                  ~

Yesterdays, never tell me where they run to
Only the callow days that breathed with you
Utter those resplendent whispers to my ear

Why did you let her go?' It hushes me, still
Each silver moment since has been an echo
Reverberating midst passion's sweet improv
Every memory is filled with an aching divine

My faculties still recall your beguiling aroma
Your flavor, even now, speaks to my senses

Soft, the moonlit eves, we swam in a dream
Open, the hearts we shared with a rare love
Unconcerned with the courses of its delirium
Lost to the realms those passions took us to
Many years have passed, but I can still hear
All our promises like petals - a life potpourri
They're faded now between the pages of life
Each one, a wilted bloom of love's memories.

MY UKHT AL-KUBRA

I have one sister in my home
Sweet, loving, with open arms and heart
With dark brown eyes
And an inviting laugh
And a passion
For life.

I have a sister at Soup
Sweet, loving, with open arms and heart
Both my sisters are so different
Yet one thing is the same:
I love them both
With all of my heart.

My sister at home has her Arabic name.
My sister at Soup stil hasn't.
To me she is an inspiration.
So, my dear inspirational sister,
Below your name in my language:

ILHAME - INSPIRATION
The picture is Ilhame in Arabic calligraphy
(pronunciation: eel-am)

Your Kalakeolelo

Momma

Momma, you might be gone now but I stll have you in my heart.

Momma, we might have fought alot, but in the end you were stil my best friend.

Momma, you were the  one that new all I had done wrong.

Momma, you were always there, every single restless night, every helpless fright.

Momma, every day I had with you, was more than I really new.

Momma, its been a rough year without you here.

Momma, sometimes I want to curl up in your arms and cry.

Momma. I miss you,  but don't worry Im gettin through.

Momma, I love you. and miss you... R.I.P. Momma.

Michele with one L and her voice

Tells me in soprano that she no longer loves

The L that always pains my heart

And with care I watch the note fade

Alone again watching my P's and Q's

It's the L that I long for as the water falls

Stil hear your song as I lie at night

The heart beats strong but without your L

The word has no meaning

Stil isn't a word without your L

My heart is stil without you


For my friend Michele who spells her name with one L after I spelled it with two L's

As Long As I'M Stil With You

As Long As I'm Still With You
We had the ups and downs
Sometimes it felt or I made
it seem that I just didn't wont to be with you
Nothing could ever take your place
Within my heart to yours
Nobody could set my heart free like you did

As Long As I'm Still With You
There are so many things we shared
The love we packed inside for each other
Nobody could ever take it away but God
Without him we couldn't make it though the storms
Nothing is so beautiful as the blue sky

As Long As I'm Still With You
When I got the message 
That our love was going to vanish away
I broke down in tears
When I first heard I was breaking piece by piece
Nohting anymore can go wrong
Because when things get rough again
Lets put it in God hands

As Long As I'm Still With You
No one can change the way 
I feel about you 
Things came by hard as the days went by
We worked our way through them
But this one gave us a hard time
Because there was a decision to be made
A very important one
Do I really need you in my life

As Long As Im Still With You
Life would be a wreck
If I ain't go you
I don't want to go to the door no more
I used to run to it when I always think it was you
The phone rings
But I don't even want to get up no more
With you no more worries 
You was there for me when things came by so hard

As Long As I'm Still With You
But as one we came along with out love
Nothing is better than being with you
As Long As I'm Still With You

Broken Heart

i look around longing for you
but then i realise i was a fool
no truth in words that you say
but my heart loves you in the same way

i try to clear my clouded mind
but peace of mind is hard to find
little by little my heart starts to break
was your love for me only fake?

it's hard to close of to the pain
but you will stil turn out the same
you said you loved was that a lie
i guess it was time to say goodbye

i thought that our love was meant to be
everyone was blinded to what i see
my heart will never quite get over this
the pain i felt that once was bliss

it hurts to know that you never care
the hurt sometimes is hard to bare
i am left alone in this empty house
full of memoryies but quiet as a mouse


Culture

I would have loved to be 
swati
To wear lihiya
And take part in the 
umhlanga dance
Or even be venda
I wouldn't mind doing 
the domba
Or beating the djembe
But I am only a mosotho 
woman
Born of pedi and Tswana
Ntepa le dipheta
Complete my attire

Sure I would have loved 
to be tsonga
To be called respectful 
among modern women
Intelligent and humble
With no fear of eating 
masonja
But I prefer my sour ting 
le moody
Nama e Maratha le letibi

I would have loved to be 
part of the ancient Dutch
To share with van riebeck 
in the undertaking of the 
command of the initial 
Dutch settlement in south 
Africa
Or even be English
I wouldn't mind having 
the queen as my 
grandmother
Drinking tea, shopping 
sprees,feeling free with 
no fees

But I do come from the 
dusty streets of Vutta le 
mkhala 
Where children look 
forward to go bolla
Where teenagers think 
the government owes 
them money for child 
bearing
And some look forward 
to university

I would have loved to be 
Nguni
And proudly say my 
president is Zulu
And gloat that most 
freedom fighters were 
Xhosa
I would smile and say i 
am Ndebele
And though I don't live 
ko kwagga
I stil enforce and respect 
my culture
But I am pedi
Kemopedi ketletse lerato
Ketletse lerato lagofeta 
boloko kagare ga Leshaka
Ke apara ntepa le dipheta
Ke ekgantsha ka setjo 
saka

I appreciate who I an
From tzaneen to 
polokwane
From northern cape to 
the east
Or from Jozi to pitori
I appreciate other cultures
Brits to maftown
Ventersdorp to orania
I still appreciate
Pietermaritzburg to new 
castle
Welkom to qwa qwa
I appreciate other cultures
Fore they bring definition 
to who we are

Premium Member Self-Actualization

Sometimes we look to closest friends,  
Expressly those who think we're ace:   
Let them confirm our worth but still       
Forget, inside us lies the proof.            

Actualization calls for a
Command of strength and keen logic
To shape ourselves, at last, to get
Unknown rewards on our plateau.
And with revealed goals, we take a
Lone journey through heart and soul
In our quest...a long safari,
Zestfully seeking life's pizzazz,
And a fruitful new arena
That hones our talents as our gift.
Inner joy promotes stimuli
Of further searches, that lead to
New trails of self-completion.

Premium Member Summer Has Begun: Concert In Yellow

The distant brass haystacks tune on shorn ground.
Vanilla fence posts chime in saffron sun.
Adjacent jonquils trumpet lemon sound
as amber goldenrod and china mums 
in stil de grain complete a trio 'round
high jasmine shrubs, which in the octaves run
aureolin to beige. Nearby is found
a vegetable garden where blond onions,
squash and carrots in harmony abound
with notes of maize and amber. Faun melons 
grace a clef of trellis where ecru-crowned
warblers and the sunglow-breasted Hutton's
Vireo twitter in tune with corn-downed,
bumblebees and drone: summer has begun.

Premium Member My Knight In Shining Armor

(Rhyme) 


I've never before seen or heard anything about you 
But then one day you just appeared and came into my life just as you are 
I'd dreamed  so much of you and I was so glad that you were with me here 
Stil  is so hard at times to believe that you'd found me and that now you are so near me. 

I want to keep you all the time in my life and forever 
Some say that dreams can come true and I now know is true 
And no matter what together we make it thru everything whatsoever 
You fill my days of rainbows sometimes and make all my days less blue. 

When I think of you my Love I can't help but to love you 
And when I see you I just want you to be mine all the time too 
Your love ignites all my desires and in my heart I just love you more and more 
You are my Knight in Shinning Armor,and with you my Love,my dreams can come true.

Happy Birthday Mom

Here are my poem in Norwegian: (translation in English comming down below)

Du blir et år eldre
og du har gjort det med stil
Sekundene tikker
tiden er inne
du går inn i ett nytt år
med håp i sinnet

Tid for ettertanke
på året som gikk
drømmer som knuste
alt du ikke fikk

Men alt det gode
må du ikke glemme
alle de rundt deg
som er glad i deg
her hjemme


Nytt år, nye muligheter
er det noen som sier
nye sjanser feires
med store seremonier
Vi feirer deg og året
som nettopp har gått
og at du har klart deg
så flott

Du er verdens beste
mor og mormor
og du fortjener det beste
Derfor jeg som din datter
prøver mitt beste
på å få sagt det meste
i et dikt til deg

gratulerer med dagen mamma
jeg elsker deg 

Here are my poem in English: (hope you enjoy)

You are a year older
and you do it with style
seconds ticking
the time is right
you enter a new year
with hope in your mind

Time for reflection
the past year
dreams shattered
everything you did not receive

But all the good
do not forget
all those around you
who loves you at
home


New year, new opportunities
There are some who say
new chances celebrated
with large ceremonies
We celebrate you and the year
that have just gone
and that you have managed you
so great

You are the best
mother and grandmother
and you deserve the best
Therefore I, as your daughter
trying my best
to say most
in a poem for you

happy birthday mum
I love you

Die Lewens Gang

Die Lewens gang 

So dwaal ek rond in die lewens gang 
vol van verlange en oral teen di mure 
hang potrete van herineringe. 

Die tyd het geloop sy eie loop 
geloop. Hy het ons mee gesleep en 
wys gemaak. Tyd het geleer ons 
geleer dat ale wonde genees, maar 
tyd was ook te kort om vergaane 
geliefdes weer te groet.

Soms is  ons spyt gewees, soms het 
ons net n sug van verligting, tyd sal 
ons weer verder vat, Die onbekende 
in die lewens lange gang af en oral 
sal daar weer nog potrete by kom 
van vriende en geliefdes wat in die 
niet verdwyn. Maar die herinepringe 
sal weer trug kom waneer ons stil 
raak en trug blik na tye wat verby is.

Daar loop weer 2rye spore deur my 
lewe, soos in die lewens gang van 
ons lewe, verskyn daar ook n potrret 
van jou op my muur, en ek weet uit 
eindelik is jy ook op geteken in my 
lewe. My gemoed raak stil want soos 
van soveel kere van tevore moet ek 
woner sal die potret bly hang, want 
hier in die gang van di lewe is daar 
onbekende dinge, dinge wat kan 
uitwis dit wat eens mooi was. Dinge 
wat gedagtes kan sper en gevoelens 
kan koud laat, en ek skuif die prent 
weer reg want met vetroue en geloof 
sal die potret ook bly hang en die 
kloue van liefde sal hou en nie laat 
gaan.

Want die gang van die lewe is nooit 
reguit nie.  

Nuwe uit dagings wag. Om elke 
draai, maar as ons om ons heen kyk 
is ons geliefde daar, om te help te 
hou op dit wat reg en eg is. 

Want die mense rondom ons sien n 
masker n masker wat niemand 
behalwe ons geliefdes weet wat 
agter aan gaan nie

A Nod To the Jabberwock

Along ta derry ga de hance
‘til dawn we sit, amid, astance.
And once the full moon rises on’t
Da mid awhorl doth all we want.

But soon ta blacken brot a gri,
wit stil da crackon akabree--
And once t’gin ta ram da moot
Dow noland farce th’ wil ka soot!

A packa shoon curl tabard sheath
And when we drather forka beeth,
Is wan ‘taback the cabbarth shoe
Around about will strike the moon.

The will soon eddy wine dak crown,
To ramble on the turtle drown.
We pounce upon the blackened brot
‘twas crackon gole th’ trei be shot!

Die Wereld Draai

As jy jou pyn buite wys 
sal vriendelike,
Irreterende vreemdeling 
jou inlig dat die wêreld 
aanhou draai.
En hulle is reg.
Dit doen.
Maak nie saak hoe hard jy 
dit smeek om te stop.
Dit hou aan draai.

Ek word wakker en is 
gelukkig vir drie 
sekondes.
Dan onthou ek,
Dit draai en kantel mense 
uit 
hul beddens
In hul karre, hul kantore.
'n Stortvloed van klein 
mans en vrouens
Wat deur die lewe tuimel.
Probeer om nie te dink 
wat daar onder wag.

Soms draai dit en stuur 
ons
Wankelrig in mekaar se 
arms.
Ons kleef styf,
Opgewonde en laggend,
Vreemdelinge saam 
gegooi op 'n bewegende 
prethuis vloer.
En dan draai die wêreld 
weer.

En iemand val af...
Dis so 'n lang pad af
Koud van skok,
Kan ons net staan en kyk 
hoe hulle val
En geleidelik kleiner word.
Onttrek stadig uit ons 
geheue
Tot hulle nie meer 
sigbaar is.

Ons versamel in 
begraafplase,
Stil en gespanne,
Asof ons die impak gaan 
hoor;
Die plons van 'n rivier klip 
in 'n donker put,
Probeer om die diepte te 
meet.
Probeer om te meet hoe 
ver ons val.

Geen impak kom;
Geen plons.
Die oomblik gaan verby.
Die wêreld draai
En ons draai weg,
Gaan aan met ons 
lewens...

Ons vou ons self toe
In gerieflike 
voorspelbaarhede
Om ons warm te hou 
teen die koue.
"Tyd is 'n goeie 
geneesheer"
"Ten minste was dit 
vinnig"
"Die wêreld hou aan 
draai"
