What of mankind’s delusions and illusions of mind, M intertwine
Message sent by radio
years ago, still traveling.
Perhaps something has received,
perceived, but not answering.
North America was first
to burst voice into void.
All nations followed at last,
our broadcast signals deployed.
Next came pixel video,
movie show in black and white.
King George and Adolph Hitler,
bitter foes commence to fight.
Later we added color,
finely tuned for human eyes.
Now our signals form a sphere
of one hundred light-year size.
Did we broadcast woe and strife
that other life could detect?
Our mistakes make me wonder
what answer we should expect.
Have they heard it all before,
murder, war, and wastefulness?
From Earth the same message sent:
We’re sentient yet senseless.
Message sent by radio
years ago, still traveling.

Dear readers of mine,
I bring you
Some red flowers!
Dear friends of mine,
I bring you some
nice twin flowers!
Dear family of mine,
I bring you
some nice roses!
'Cause, flowers
Do bring us a lot
Of joy at home!
'Cause, flowers
Do love us all,
For, they are like us:
Godfather has also created them!
So, family and friends of mine,
We do have to love flowers,
We all, have to respect flowers,
God, our Father, wants Love to be first in life!!

rose and yellow
pretty little flowers on
the lovely tree
***
special colours for
some lace peonies
flowers dance of love
***
the roses simply
are flowers inspiring
romance and love
***
a bouquet of beautiful
roses appealed to
the idea of a new season
***
a sublime woman
dreaming among some
amazing red flowers
***
an oustanding scenery
with purple sunset
and rose lake waters
