Lessons of Life to LearnThere are lessons of life to learn,
Coin has two sides - face down and up;
It moves quickly after the toss,
Finally, it does slowly stop.
One wisely works. Another sleeps,
Doing nothing each single day;
The lazy man is just headed
Toward hunger in every way.
Sweet summer comes. Wild winter goes,
As the tiny ants store up food;
Farmers...

Standing in the Rainpain is like a storm
rivers of tears overflow
with cold chill and flood
sharp arrows from the dark clouds
pierce into my hope for joy
strong wind whips my heart
hurting my spirit and soul
but not my firm faith...

Total Changerainbow smiles abound
honey sun erased my frowns
olive green trees sing
in welcome warmth of noonday
laughing gold lilies crowd June
I'm no longer blue
as butterflies spread scent news
they're maroon in hue

Place in the Sunto relive this place
the perfection of summer
absolute blue skies
crickets cheering bel cantos
spark birds plugging for lawn grubs
remain in warm suns
obedient girasols
leave darkness behind...

We cannot blame nature for melancholy of the autumnWe cannot blame nature for melancholy of the autumn
Leaves falling down the ground
Decay to enrich the soil for feeds and the fertility of the forest
It's us isolated to our world of the human ignorance
Excluding needs of the world that food feeds us with love of the flavors and colors
And fantasy
Knitting is for...

Druidic MuseA slow and joyous path beneath the skies,
Earth holds me close in rooted ground each day,
While wind blows cloudy liquid dreams that rise,
Islands are adrift in clean clouds that stray.
You, wise young Druid, cloaked in ageless green,
Stand firm upon the soil where Nature dwells.
Limpid and true, your waters flow serene.
A gift you give when I...

A Morning of GloryAs Flowers unfurl
imbibing the pearly dew
birds sing in chorus
butterflies and bees frolic
a beautiful day begins
my heart is ready
with a devotional faith
for morning glory

Your Unique PathTwo paths diverged into the woods,
some choose the easier path.
I followed my heart and chose to go straight.
It was a treacherous path and made me the best I could be.
I’m glad I chose the harder way,
It was the right choice for me.
I hope that you will chose as well,
Blazing a trail only you can travail.

Brown EyesIrises color of an ancient oak.
Ancient oak with hues of warm golden honey.
Honey merging into the ancient oak, creating a spellbound glen in those irises.
Irises with such a glow.
Glow only the sun rays catch with their stunning beauty.
Beauty so unique to see in such eyes.
Eyes such an escape from...
