driving through a thick blizzard
her love worth the risk...

In feeling awe
Saw a kitten
Playing paw
With a ping
Pong ball
She liked
So much
Wish that I 
Had a home
I could 
Take her to...

And they ask you about the soul
Say, the soul is an outcome 
Of one of the commands of our Lord
And you are not given knowledge but a little from God....

She looked
What she found
Made the world
Stop and take heed
To a look at how

Romantic dating

Epigram #85:

KNOWING


So the child is father to the man,
Even the mad people understand.

Salute a summer welcome  
Penchant for sunshine

Dark matter is thought to be 85% 
of the mass of our universe, which
leaves us with the remaining 15%.

All that’s left after s/he said
“Let there be light.”...

Just like that, the snow stopped and it's 85 degrees
Canada EH!! Describes our weather to a “T”
Is "fluctuation" a word
Meaning seems blurred
Sounds like some naughty talk with a lisp just occurred...

It's Barangka Mandaluyong 
That celebrates eighty-fifth year; 
Each member's faith never goes wrong, 
As judgment day is very near.

C and V are gone forever
Punched too hard
Copy and Paste

Space bar holding court
Wanting a rally to protest 
The heaviness of my fingers.

I slap them happily
Typing 85 words a minute
Unconcerned about their silly protest....

Quatrain #85:
FEST


Feel now and here deep sense of flow,
Etch fond good cheer that sparks fine glow;
Sketch happy near in song and dance,
Touch makes things clear in ample show.

stepping out,
courage &
       boldness
to the fore:
why
is this 
        happening
              ..today
why
have I
       waited
           ...so long
to take
         this step
         into
         tomorrow...

come
let's
go

Desde sempre
o engajamento,
mais do que 
qualquer 
outro fator, 
mais do 
que QI,
cria entre 
85% a 90% 
do sucesso 
na vida 
e nos negócios.

Qualquer outro fator,
você e eu
precisamos,
mas ter, 
nunca faz 
de você 
uma estrela: 
é o engajamento
que faz
fazer 
mais e mais....

Mother Nature must be in love 
Her smile a warm 85 degrees,
Kissing us with no humidity 
the birds sing on the breeze;

Mother Nature must be glowing
nothing can stop her Sun,
Warming us from the inside out
That happy romantic rhythm,

Mother nature must be crazy
to bare us her soul;
Or maybe she trusts,
We love her as she loves us....

lovely and tipsy
blue moon dips into the sea

                                 falling dreamily

There's construction on 400
Bed rolls under the junction
Lights passing overhead
Eyes shut but never rested

With the film money rolling in,
New homes are built
With the overpass covering,
some are sheltered from the rain

Underneath 85,
Just south of city lights
are those still trudging through life
Bed roll, holding dog close for the warmth to survive...

Hands
mixing
neutral shades
as brushstrokes form
etches of life’s vignettes in washed-out tones,
Reflecting grim  shadows doused by night’s  ash
Where black  white hints
Trail along
Fingers
Stained.
Grief
In oil
Expressing
Artist's lament
Through paint of tears which words cannot portray.
