The Romance of Yisirih and Kisirah

Paris-Brest v.s. Mille-Feuille
Shirmp and Catfish Mousse---------------
-------------------------------
I 'm beside my self
head over heels
unfazed by those things
in quite a mood
we're in love
so in love

Noi insieme
Un momento romantico
Coppie riunite
Una splendida serata
Cantare
Tavole incantevoli
Tutto all'insegna del gusto
Il romanticismo come tema
La gioia che l'amore regala

I'm in love
that long haul kinda beleiving
that you an I together
kinda feeling
wanting the night to be
needing you
wanting you
loving you
loving you
ooh ahuh yeah we're in love
ooh auh ooh we; yeah we're
in love
auh;auh oh auh
we're in love
let the world know
we're in lover
naturale armonico melodico

Inspired by Les Fiances ou Souvenir de Mille et une nuits by Marc Chagall

there is a never after
     where words are lost
  and colours fade
but perhaps we won't let go ~
   in dreams and voices
     there will be one more story from me
you'll be attentive
one last time
                yet the tips of my fingers
          slip from grasp
   and all I ever wish for stills

I watch the earth spin

        confused as to who is letting go
    in this here and now

~ balance from the moon ~

             a momentary turn
     no one falls away

all lay softly
sound asleep

         heartbeats become the dream
   pictures ink into night skies
               one thousand and one times
existing as permanently
as a memory feels
when last times
were just yesterday

Premium Member Mille Lacs

 The fire encircled by red Adirondacks
A ham and cheese omelette full of protein packs
Glacier remnants the shoreline stacks
Crimson turns; the once green Sumac's
In the Ojibwe lands no fall beauty lacks
Anishinaabeg; the "True People" of lake Mille Lacs


Premium Member Mad Mille

Mad Millie made mention of her mother’s murderous mind.
We wrinkled wandering thoughts which were marvelously kind.
Thinking we knew better than Mad Millie until we did find.
That her mama truly did have a splendiferous murderous mind.

Question D'Un Cœur En Mille Morceaux

Vive l’héro
La chanson voisine des louanges
Et toi-

Tu m’as laissé
Au sommet 
De leur jeu 

Et j’ai pleuré
Tout seul
Sans arrêt, comme une veille chute d’eau 

Mais quand 
Tu n’es pas retourné, pour retrouver 
Ta jeunesse d’antan

Pourquoi 
Personne ne vient 
Pour me demander?

Comment
Oui, comment j’ai arrêté
De pleurer


Question From A Broken Heart (English)

Long live the hero
The neighbors’ song of praise
And you-

You left me
To the top
Of their game

And I cried 
Alone
Nonstop, like an ancient waterfall

But when
You didn’t come back, to rediscover 
Your long lost youth

Why
Nobody is coming
To ask me ?

How,
Yes, how I stopped
From weeping
