To Bring Our Family Closer

To bring our family closer together we went
For a walk in the myriad shades of green 
Forest on a long light brown rough hew log
Pathway that goes through the woods 
With a rope going along the top to hang 
On to. We completely got away from 
Society.
White flowers were growing through the 
Logs on the left and right sides making
This a beautiful scene with an aromatic
Bouquet. The sun shining through the 
Trees up ahead of us was giving off an
Autumn reddish brown glow to the leaves.
We had to face an actuality
Since we lost a child we needed a different
Type of family activity.
When Melody was alive we would all go to 
The beach cottage to enjoy the sand, water,
Sun, and sea breeze.
Now to bring our family closer together we 
Went for a walk in the myriad shades of 
Green forest on a long light brown rough 
Hew log pathway that goes through the
Woods with a rope going along the top to
Hang on to. We completely got away from
Society.
We wanted this family vacation to give us 
A new family memory without any 
Reminders of Melody taking away our 
Gaiety 
Or making anyone feel ill at ease.
We had to face An actuality.
Nature gives off a form of energy.
As does our grandchildren when their 
Playing with our Maltese.
To bring our family closer together we went
For a walk in the myriad shades of green 
Forest on a long light brown rough hew log
Pathway that goes through the woods with
A rope going along the top to hang on to.
We completely got away from society.
This was brought to life as we used the
Rough water fountain and the bathroom
Facility.
We were in a time freeze.
We had to face an actuality.
I am happy to report this vacation was a 
Victory
For us as a family. Everyone was pleased.
To bring our family closer together we went 
For a walk in the myriad shades of green
Forest on a long light brown rough hew log 
Pathway that goes through the woods
With a rope going along the top to hang on
To. We completely got away from society.
We had to face an actuality.


Premium Member Islanders - Collaboration With Paul Callus

On the balcony of our room
We stood alone, just you and me
Watching the rising crescent moon
The twinkling undulating sea

Inhaled the salty fragrant air
You had your arm around my waist
Warm breath that flirted on my nape
The teasing lips ready to taste

Let out a sigh, there was no haste,
It was yet early in the night
Temptation waited by the side
It lingered, silent, out of sight
 
I’d longed for moments just like this
You smelt so good, tasted divine      
Our lips were locked in urgent kiss
Full bodied gift like rich red wine

Your gentle hands removed my dress
Dilating eyes filled with delight
For I wore not my thermal vest
The heated passion filled the night

A cloud went by, obscured the moon
Now things were not how they should seem
I was alone, he was not there
This must have been a Maltese dream!

My Child My Only Child

 Quieter than usual I stand alone in my verandah
looking over a lamp-lit street-bench.

Across the ocean      a plane lands down onto the runway
where my wind- swept words would not be heard
and my mascara stained cheeks will not be seen.


Lost  I whisper:  "Farewell         my little child       Farewell

Embark on your journey...

Go  chase the  stars   Live life    Count a thousand ways to smile
Spread those wings     Fly  free     Build up your destiny

Go girl     Explore the world       Ride on its  golden wheel
It takes you places       magical places     wherever  you want to be

Do all the things you aim to do      Believe in all that makes you    you

Walk     Run       Run through lavender fields   Don't turn your back  on the foreign breeze
Its sweet   Its soft      Like I described it       A million nights into your sleep.

Oh my one       my only child       a maltese  beauty
 with noicettes  eyes     with sweetest charms and hazel hair

When was it that you turned into a lady  of a kindred soul    and a smile so fair

Oh my one    my only child     with a determined mind and a spirit sublime

In my absence      Do not fear           In lonely silence seek me          and I'll   be there

Shawling your solitude with sudden care        Humming a lullaby  on our old rocking chair

Covering cold nights with blankets of love      Whispering stories about God above.

Oh my one   my only  child        I know there's cursed distance that will keep us apart
  but distance is only a grain compared to my heart

Its the heart of a mother that beats to your own         And wherever you are
It  keeps on protecting you           It keeps being your home.

My child   My one only child ..."  




Ps : My daughter Christina is still very young,  but a mother sees not only the past and the present when She thinks of her child, the future is a vision She thinks of from day one with soul, heart, and mind.

Ancient Greek Epigrams I

Ancient Greek and Roman Epigrams I

Wall, we're astonished that you haven't collapsed,
since you're holding up verses so prolapsed!
Ancient Roman graffiti, translation by Michael R. Burch

You begrudge men your virginity?
Why? To what purpose?
You will find no one to embrace you in the grave.
The joys of love are for the living.
But in Acheron, dear virgin,
we shall all lie dust and ashes.
—Asclepiades of Samos, loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

Let me live with joy today, since tomorrow is unforeseeable.
?Michael R Burch, after Palladas of Alexandria

Now his voice is prisoned in the silent pathways of the night:
his owner’s faithful Maltese...
but will he still bark again, on sight?
?Michael R Burch, after Tymnes

Poor partridge, poor partridge, lately migrated from the rocks;
our cat bit off your unlucky head; my offended heart still balks!
I put you back together again and buried you, so unsightly!
May the dark earth cover you heavily: heavily, not lightly...
so she shan’t get at you again!
?Michael R Burch, after Agathias

Hunter partridge,
we no longer hear your echoing cry
along the forest's dappled feeding ground
where, in times gone by,
you would decoy speckled kinsfolk to their doom,
luring them on,
for now you too have gone
down the dark path to Acheron.
?Michael R Burch, after Simmias

Wert thou, O Artemis,
overbusy with thy beast-slaying hounds
when the Beast embraced me?
?Michael R Burch, after Diodorus of Sardis

Dead as you are, though you lie as
still as cold stone, huntress Lycas,
my great Thessalonian hound,
the wild beasts still fear your white bones;
craggy Pelion remembers your valor,
splendid Ossa, the way you would bound
and bay at the moon for its whiteness
as below we heard valleys resound.
And how brightly with joy you would leap and run
the strange lonely peaks of high Cithaeron!
?Michael R Burch, after Simonides

Premium Member Mediterranean Undressing

This rock of the brave
In the Mediterranean Sea
There is a Maltese Maiden
A lure for me

We will meet in it's Capital
Steeped in history
Valletta is it's name
But for tonight it's our chemistry

After a three hour flight
In Malta I land
To the hotel I am taken
Corinthia Marina so grand

I am now booked in
On my balcony I await
Looking over St George's Bay
For my Maltese date

I hear a knock at the door
As I open at ease
A beautiful sight I see
Has my blue eyes in please

A dark haired maiden
With skin so tanned
So beautifully dressed
Like a million grand

On the balcony we sit
With a vintage red wine
My heart is pounding
At her beauty so fine

I lay down my glass
In pursuit of a kiss
She responds like a magnet
Our lips now in bliss

I take her by the hand
My Maltese girl
My heart pounding
In an ever-ending twirl

Into my arms I take her
In kissing embrace
Our hands now in wander
In undressing grace

We fall on the bed
Of silken sheets
Where our adventure begins
As our bodies meet

In carnal crave
We join as one
As we are shadow dancing
In the late evening sun

The depths of our love
As we share our potions
In arched sync
Rhythmic explosions

As we sigh and groan
At the moment we have shared
For tonight on this brave island
Our love has been declared

We awake in the morning
Entwined in each others arms
And our sensuous joys
Loving charms

We spend the day
Holding hands and kissing
With my Maltese Maiden
In many years, we'll be reminiscing



For a Lady, whose heart is as big as the island she stays on " Charmaine Chirop "

The Maltese Maiden

There was once a maiden who lived by the sea

with lustrous   lips that dried too soon

like early dew perched on a tree .

She once was beautiful with  skin so fair

A veil of lilacs  covered her hair.

Her eyes the brightest of moonglow beams

Her voice, a drifting wave  on a late night breeze.

Her dimpled smile lit each dark alley

Her carefree spirit reached every valley.

This little maiden had  never married

though noble blood her womb has carried.

Undressed from innocence, her tender flesh

has felt the warmth of drunken  breath.

His fingertips exposed her neck

and then trailed down along her back.

She couldn't move, She couldn't scream

At last, She ran not to be seen.

She ran so fast to be set free

She raised her son, lone by the sea.

Premium Member Can You Give That a Rest

I wake up screaming
Max the Axe has just chopped me into bits
It is not the first time
but this time I felt it.
I glare at my husband who is still clicking buttons.
Can you give that a rest? I ask.
He does not hear me.
He is in lahlah land
In video game world.
Being a detective
Solving crimes
Right and left.
He has no idea there is a real person in this room
For he is Sam Spade aka Humphry Bogart
Master detective with a Maltese Falcon
Who has not yet discovered Lauren Bacall
Living in the 60's
Over a bar in Los Angeles

Premium Member Where Do Your Ideas Come From

Where do your ideas come from?
I am astonished, astounded, surprised each time.
Don’t other people listen? Pay attention? Drive to work?
How can they not notice the toaster is pouting today?

Don’t their....
neighbors have screaming yelling fights and end up laughing?
dogs wear cowboy hats and run around shooting their six-shooters?
husbands trip on ducks and fall into a Maltese Falcon Statue?
How can they not notice their underwear is on backwards?

Do they not see the stars spying them as they take a whizz?
Do they not feel their living room’s hostility when they paint it gray?
Where do my ideas NOT come from is a better question actually.

Premium Member Our Dear Charmaine

Everyone knows our dear Charmaine
From the Mediterranean Isle of Malta
A beautiful lady so loving and gentle
My admiration for her never falters

Charming and sweet are a couple of words
Describing this dear loving soul
I hold my breath till her name appears
Since this ageing heart she stole

Others on the site are sweethearts too
Can't possibly mention them all
But this is all about Charmaine Chircop
That dear sweet Maltese doll

Since the day Charmaine came into my life
The sun has never stopped shining
She fills each day with such joy and kindness
Forever on her love, I'm dining
