The peace they display is the fruit of a hundred years of inner wars
They walk among us, wrapped in a quiet that intrigues, in a silence that soothes. We think they’ve always been this way, born under a merciful star, spared from opposing winds. But this peace, you have to listen to it closely: it vibrates like metal hammered a thousand times, it echoes with the memory of...

The peace they display is a ripe fruit from thousands of battles, They walk among us, in a silence that intrigues and soothes, We think they have always been this way, under a benevolent star, But this peace vibrates like metal hammered a thousand times, It resonates with the memory of blows and raw wounds. A hundred years of inner...

Display of nature - Clouds
DISPLAY OF NATURE - CLOUDS White clouds like cotton, Drifting by, floating away, Then darkening the sky, Clouds turning to a silver grey. Rumbling thunder breaks the silence, Flashing lights, way up high, Bolt of lightning strikes, Lighting up the whole sky!! Out of nowhere, Just as quickly, appears the rain, Refreshing the earth, Then disappearing...

Rehearsal
A step towards crowning perfection,’ Notions of luck much like infection; Before a show drop that conception: Talents grow with good self-perception… Blunders men should reduce to zero: The only way one seems a hero. You don’t harden your heart like Pharaoh; Awaits one the poor record of Nero… Artistes crave a resounding applause. Why would one pander away a plus? For a standing ovation...

Floral Display
Pink magnolias sway in drizzling rain, Sunny marigolds laugh, all bright and gay, Carnations croon in colourful array, Laid-back lily droops in lazy disdain, Ravishing blossoms in cool wind astir, Sparkling drops of passion softly kissing, Radiant blooms, sunrays hardly missing, Faintly falling blobs form a blissful blur, Dazzling daisy dilly dallying slow, Lush lilacs...
