I glimpsed the sweet refrain of a resurrection
swift upon a...

“The Lewis Trap”



Well, of course he's misanthropic
He’s a Misanthropic Man
The Devil’s in the details
Buried deep under the covers
Of bedtime stories, slithers ‘neath loose sand

A Liddell bit of cake
A Liddell bit of julip
Sweets for a sweet...

Granny and I lived in Bemeyills
A land beyond the hills
On a beautiful thatchy
In a tract of a wild country

So she called me and told me all these

She said event...

Look at the floor of heaven 
Laid with patterns of bright gold
For us, they are but little orbs 
But in his motion
Like angels, they sing
So many songs of harmony
To the souls of immortals 
And while...

and will keep it while they suffer a loss.

I am remorseful
For my life is an enigma
And at times I lose my way
Like a mad dog that goes astray
Enslaved by tribulations
That fails to go away
And reason becomes an...

The grass is always greener on the other side: says who?

Deep inside us within our soul

A Hope that lies always in deep

ILLUSIONAL BEAUTY
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS

I was awed by her beauty as she strolled by

This stunning example of feminine perfection

Her hair was long...

You were no Cinderella at the ball,
But, then, I was no Prince Charming, I recall.
We were two ordinary people
Who fate and chance had brought together,
But by the time the dance was through,
We'd found romance and...

Soaring into the air,
strafing the  clear blue skies
traversing  land and moutains high,
the eagle flies, a bird of awesome size.
 It's wings, huge bellows trapping air, 
send tiny creatures into spasms with fear.

Stooping low,...

Love that was once so perfect.
Disappeared quick like the light being swallowed by darkness.
Laughter and joy that once filled the sky.
Taken over by dead silence beneath the clouds.
That person whom was forever to be mine.
Transformed...

Just the other day, I had drawn an imaginary castle 
I knew all the pathways to the glittered dreams
As I got nearer and nearer to touch 
The dreams started blurring with reality
The pathways got narrowed...

Do not believe all that’s told	
All that glitters is not gold

But deep inside there is no light

When I got to know...

Impossible isn't it! But it made you peek in!

All that glitters is not gold but gets a glance
For stunning, sparkling shine

First impression is the lasting one!

Contrasting colours, unconventional shades,
Strange pictures, three dimensional covers,

Why I married him God knows,
For all that glitters is not gold,
Was it pride or just ambition,
Was I just a mirage sold.

I’m a woman not a Queen
For a King that wants it all,
Beauty, trinkets, the...

Illusion


It looks like what it is not
It's not always what it seems
All that glitters is not gold
Though it's summer, some feel cold

At the point dream meets reality
Reality may become an illusion
It leaves me blinded in...

A precious metal that sure does shine.
Sought by many, claimed by few,
Prospecting was the thing to do.

Found and used in all forms of life,
Sealing the bond with my dear wife.

I couldn't sleep well and tight
I slowly pull the hinge of the door
The only sound was my footsteps on the floor

Felt the fresh...
