Creativity

God created Earth in six days and rested.
From when he resumed, He never rested.
There's no end to creativity; nor creation!

In the 18th century
Sewing machines are

A blank

Snatching

We are sleeping...

   chocolate smeared
        little hands

I’m trying a new ‘see food’ diet
I’d recommend that you all try it
Any food will do
Nothing’s bad for you ...
It's no wonder my trousers don’t fit!

I miss your sweet embrace,
My ally 
I miss your sweet embrace,
I can but cry

For even when my eyes can’t see
I am to be blamed
Faithfully ashamed
You’re right in front of me

After the 
intensity 
of our
relationship - 
the heady feeling 
of being 
wanted -
the silence 
kills me.
I struggle 
to stay sane,
to understand why 
she never calls me now.
No,
she won't phone again...

I, from the gray Wolf I'm diverged,
basal, ancestral we are
Millenniums we have witnessed,
historically we're culled 
Yet, we were here before humans,
are we next to disappear

Golden Bubble

The handicapped and orally challenged
Must not be disdained or estranged
Although they cannot reverse the mute
At least, they can blow aloud the flute!

Disability is not inability, so they say. 
God listens more when the mute pray!

What can I say about my brother
He is the other son of my mother
We don't whistle the same tune or sing the same song
And we don't always get along
But I could not be more happy for him today
As this is his 18th birthday
He is a man I greatly admire
And to be like him I do aspire...

Late
When opaqueness reigns
Over the aspect of cycles
And chains
Every soul should be reminded
Of how vile the word has sounded

Opaqueness never reigns
It never comes
Never remains.
Opaqueness is the lack of light
In every soul
Drowned in fright.

K-ind and so considerate
A-s well as so humble; 
Y-ou really touch our heart, 
E-ven our mind and soul.

M-ay I offer you this greeting
A-nd simple thoughts of mine, 
R-eminiscing the day you were born; 
C-herish this very special moment
O-f celebrating the birth of yours, 
S-ending the 18th key to a beautiful November morn....
