Premium Member I told you long ago that this land called Romania
I told you long ago that this land called "Romania" has exhausted its sources of blood and dreams. For 35 years, we've been walking the thin line of memories, on the debts left by those shaped under Ceau?escu, but they are slowly retreating to the quiet pensions and to the Cold Park of fleeting shadows. Those who follow...

Once upon a time, in the early years before I walked and talked, a cell phone at my ears… before Instagram or Pinterest or Facebook strived to overtake my very mind, sometimes, I felt like my heart had been forsook leaving me troubled, on the edge of life’s shadows forgiven by God, even though I’d often mistook darkness for light, wrong for...

Premium Member A Log Cabin of Long Ago
In a log cabin out in the Wild West Many tumultuous years ago A family cuddled and found sweet rest By their potbellied wood-burning stove A tall candle burned bright in the window The harsh, cold wind beat upon the door Everyone had done their evening chores And now had circled the warm wood stove A golden glow filled the old log...

Premium Member It wasn't all that long ago, The State of the Union

Wish I could write a song Telling you I have loved you for so long. But the words keep getting stuck in my head Telling you how much you meant to me I close my eyes Time flies Only thing I see is you Without you I feel so blue Though you have been gone all these years I think of you so starts...
