Real Time

Saying goodbye to all that’s past,
tomorrow slipped away

The moment cherished, the instant pure
—living for today

Epitaph For Alphonse

EPITAPH for ALPHONSE

Neath this stone lies Alphonse Dubois
Funambulist of Avoirdupois
Might have lived a bit longer 
Had the rope been stronger

C'Est La Vie

Late 80s, Quebec, Ville de Lasalle, A piece of my life, a piece of me, I left behind; Fait accompli. What I miss most? Je ne sais quoi! Cartoons! Lagaffe, Robin Dubois! Bicycle rides with my good friends, Next to the river, along the bends. I left behind a piece of my life…

Tell the Stories

Zora Neal saw that Their Eyes Were Watching God, when
Toni Morrison heard The Song of Solomon, and
James Baldwin Told It on the Mountain, while
W.E.B. DuBois embraced The Souls of Black Folks
Richard Wright was a Black Boy, that’s why
Dr. Maya Angelo Knew Why the Caged Bird Sang
Iyana Vanzant found Peace Within Pieces, when
Lorraine Hansberry ate a Raisin in the Sun, while
Terry McMillian was Waiting to Exhale

Love - a Human Emotion

To find true love is such a thrill Your heart pounds hard against your will Glowing eyes and loving smile Make you believe it’s all worthwhile Apart for long you cannot be I need to have you close to me To hug, to hold, or merely kiss Just thoughts of you are simply bliss As time goes by our love unites And no more dark and lonely nights You are my sunshine and my desire There’s nothing else that I require ©Elisabeth Dubois – 2012

Moments of Time

There is an endless sea that engulfs all dreams There is a land of sand that has no time There is a sun that glows and a moon that shines But what does all this, have to do with time? A world and life that reflects beauty A day is all we have, to embrace it fully Moments of time is what we have No past to regret no tomorrow to follow. Today you’ll live a moment in time As today, like any other day… is always today! ©Elisabeth Dubois 2011
