indecision
by Eiffel Tower
shall I take lift or stairs
sipping coffee
off the beaten track
why does it taste better
on bench, relaxed
relishing the peace
can idling be a sin
fantasy shared
padlocks on a bridge
is love for ever more
pleasantly lost
in city side streets
do we need find the way
an evening stroll
lovers by the Seine
who knows where it will end
soaking in her
nocturnal beauty
how can I resist her
lingering thoughts
when it's time to leave
how soon can we return

What is the meaning of isolation?
the process or fact of isolating or being isolated.
"the isolation of older people"
* denoting a hospital or ward for patients with contagious or infectious
diseases.
What is the meaning of insanity?
* the state of being seriously mentally ill; madness.
This small virus that is infected millions of lives has left us in unwanted isolation, driving us in madness and insanity.
Lord give us patience to understand and forgive. A solution for the outbreak so it will come to an end.
Like the squirrel in “Ice Age,” a 2002 American computer-animated comedy film. It is trying so hard to keep the last pinecone left on earth, but seem to elude him. Has it come to that?
Quote:
Proverbs 17:22
A joyful mind maketh age flourishing: a sorrowful spirit drieth up the bones.

*Oxford Dictionaries
DIRT FROM THE CORNERS OF THE CASTLE
WERE SAID TO BE MAGIC
PIXIEDUST AND PUSSYWILLOW POLLEN COULD
BE REMEDY FOR LONILNESS
THEY MADE BROOMS FROM THE SAGES AMONG THE FEILDS
THE MEADOW GRASS WHERE BOUND TOGETHER
AND USED TO
REMOVE THE DUST FROM THESE EDGES
AND GATHER POLLEN FROM THE PUSSYWILLOW TREES
THEN THEY PLACED IN BAGS AND SOLD TO
PEOPLE WHO WANTED LOVE
THEY'D PUT IT BEHIND THE EARS
OF THERE CHOSEN LOVER
AND THEN THE MAGIC WOULD
CAUSE THEM TO LOVE.
THE PUSSYWILLOW POLLEN WOULD
AND THE DUST COULD ONLY BE MAGIC
IF THE CREATER USED A FEILDSAGE BROOM, AND
A TUSK OF A WALRUS,
THEY CARVED SPOONS FROM THE
TUSK AND THESE SPOONS HAD MAGICAL POWERS!
Did I not help you?
Was I not there when you fell?
I’m crying alone….
My secrets are mine
Do I question you of yours?
The heart is silent….
Intentional pain
Do you think I’m made of stone?
Please handle with care….
I love who I am
Why do you want me to change?
My heart is constant…
Unfettered by time
Do you want to live the dream?
Let me take you there…

One good turn deserves another...or so they say. How easily we forget to repay a kindness. I love the song by Michael Bolton...Lean on Me.
LEAN ON ME
WHEN YOUR NOT STRONG
I'LL BE YOUR FRIEND
I'LL HELP YOU CARRY ON
FOR, IT WONT BE LONG TIL IM GONNA NEED
SOMEBODY TO LEAN ON
Ecclesiastes 4:9 - 12
Two are better than one,
because they have a good return for their labor:
10 If either of them falls down,
one can help the other up.
But pity anyone who falls
and has no one to help them up.
11 Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm.
But how can one keep warm alone?
12 Though one may be overpowered,
two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
"The third strand being the strongest one...GOD"
Dear Self,
I have taken a moment to write,
Since time is walking briskly.
How are you faring?
Do you still get excited with the changing season and smell of rain?
Do you still sit out in the cool of the evening
having a picnic in candlelight with a glass of wine in hand?
Watch the day fade away, welcome the graying of the night?
Count the luminous stars looking for all the constellations,
And the changes of the moon from night to night
While the stars gaze back;
Make a wish upon a shooting star?
Do you walk through and adore the open fields to another city?
Do you still listen to Celtic music, country music,
Or watching cartoons with your great-grandchildren?
Have you hiked those overgrown mountain trails
Where the feather reed grass is up to your waist
And the seedling trees trying to reach for the sky?
Are you facing the fact that you have gotten older
Or are your fears struggling with life?
Are you thinking positive to each step you take forward
Or are you taking steps backwards and not forget the past?
Are you still exercising or have you gotten lazy?
Are you still holding up to the change of weather?
Are your children still rejoicing in their lives?
Are the grandchildren growing like weeds
And being blessed with being successful?
Have you made peace with whom you love
And achieved your destiny?
Have you found prosperity and success?
Are you enjoying retirement in a far-of-land or island;
Found a soul mate to keep you happy and safe?
Tell me, have you succeeded in completing everything on your bucket list?
I hope your life is going on better than it was?
Whatever you have done, I hope you found good in it.

Do we live forever?
Will we shine in stars and be heard in seashells, selling our histories upon seashores?
Do we live forever?
Will I haunt a long-lost beau into loving me, sparkle with electric messages as a ghost in a machine?
Do we live forever?
Will you ever understand the chicken / egg dilemma, why we don’t count them before they hatch?
Do we live forever?
Will you remember kissing me? Or your memory eating disease? Will you remember forgetting me?
Do we live forever?
Maybe I’ll learn what’s above black and below white, what happens within silence and outside of air.
Do we live forever?
It’s a looping number 8 that's trying to find the end of a circle - or, maybe the start.
But when I find out, you’ll be the first person I tell.
the chump!
if it causes doubt
shouldn't we eliminate the
possibility of doubt?
than all who look to me
shall stand in the presences of
something assured and without doubt?
who shall answer the call: to stand amidst the farro and be fallin
among the dust.
in defeat from the better man.
might I wear the crown before you
to make you realize I am best?
Must I walk the aisle alone
and stand before you
so that you might understand
what needs to be understood.
don't interrupt me!
my thoughts are focused upon your destruction:
my mind is fixed to see success.
your foolish words hinder the thought pattern
and must be silenced!
the champ!
I talked to Brimpe Doleagugio in while
I was in the Ole country: he told
me they chanted" anyone but you"
when they introduced his opponent. He valued the feedback, but
it disrupted his thoughts,"
I looked at Brimpe, and turned my head,
and when I did
Dolileango slapped him silly!
do you know why?
I'll tell you why: it aint always
about you Brimpe
sometimes what the people are saying is
what the people know to be true.
This go round they spoke me as champion.
cause they know I'm the best in the world!
truly asking you
still you are out of my heart
have you heard its cry?
for caring my clothes
think you are the best of all
have you read me till?
no meaning is there
until soaked with bath of love
is just living life?
miss you all the time
failed in love being with you
will time come in life?
acquaintance with love
means feeling with real living
is living life hell?
you have no answer
i have all questions' answers
will you reply now?
