The crimson hue in the dusk.
A girl with nasturtiums.
And the streets are starting shaking
like dikes.
The sea is tiptoeing.

A picture of a Golden Age. 
And of my heart....

In the light of hope, dreams soar high
With unity and strength, we touch the sky
Together we rise, in a new dawn’s gleam
A golden age waits, for us to believe and dream

"I hear you knockin'
But you can't come in
I hear you knockin'
Go back where you've been"
Fats Domino

not absence or noise 
can make the heart grow fonder 
when doors have been closed

golden flecks and reflected light

float slowly to the base

caught in hands reaching high

and splash against my face

painting my skin a golder tint

washing cares away

i give them my time to spend

and lay down in their grave...

Eight days and nights of Chanukah
  is a little much for me
I've gotten to that 'golden age'
  where it's really hard to be

Happy, happy, happy
  morning, noon and night
I'd just like to go to sleep
  once I light the lights...

It's not so bad, I say,
Part of our ride today,
Health and mobility our stage,
To this golden age,
Wake up to say,
"Let's get positive, yah!"
Old power chaps and miss
You have so got this,
No need, negative blip,
Ageing process is our trip!...

I am again sinking 
in that black and white golden age.
In my own tears,
shed for those I missed to meet.

We share the same genes though,
stronger than time.

I hope one day you get to be a composer, Bob.
For now, walk those heels.
Fearlessly....

Being with you made me hate love ,for i was the happiest with you .
With you i knew no pain like grape vines together we grew .
your eyes like the sky itself,which set my heart ablaze .
Truly this was love in it's prime my wonder years, the golden age ....

What once was my

golden age of youth,


is now my sunset

years of old age.


Am I wiser now?

or just as foolish.


If I pass on what

I have learned


then this old life I

have lived,


was not lived

in vain.

The golden age of both time and space
Between the lines of hate
You're beauty, always embraced
Force feeding loving memories
I swallow, letting go

Remembering his eyes
The eyes of promise, dissolution
He leaves, always, forever
My love, alone but for a second
Blue and brown, the description
Of my past, beloved...

once upon a page in time-
the golden age of the five and dime
I looked upon a sky of blue

and suddenly I came to feel
a sense of magic vivid,real
and wondered to myself could it be true?

yet colors fade as pages turn
that none but educated eyes discern
the written words had made it clear

it was I fear...
an imaginary hue....

Craft the world that be a stage
Vibrant vines in poisoned ivy
Creeping up these walls...
Watermarks pointing towards 
Their progression; this thirst 
Upon your knees please
Then you can read; except ?
Washing away the taste
A tear to soothe their numb
Release this becoming...
Make-up; lights camera action
That's a wrap; then, fade to black....

Edison bulb
Instine formula
calling bet’s 
to the last three
a crazy intense formula
with pimples wild


set up now golden age
it was like a deck of card’s
down to the last three
with a gofey pimple on top
what appears now 
what happens now
the last two heads 
now he says drink 
he wants you gone

YOU THOUGHT IT WAS SPRING...

Youth saw me passing by
My wrinkled brow, my twinkling eye
Ignored my smile, my nodding head
Offered merely a glance of dread
That I had noticed youth instead
Of passing like I was not there.
Someday youth you'll know my fears
With pride you'll reach the golden age
And you, I'm sure, will surely rage
Youth did not see your golden years....

Youth saw me passing by  --
My wrinkled brow, my twinkling eye
Ignored my smile, my nodding head
Offered merely a glance of dread
That I had noticed youth instead
Of passing by like I was not there.

Someday youth you will know my fears
With pride you'll reach the golden age
And you, I am sure, will surely rage
Youth did not see your golden years....

You and your Road Rage
   Should be locked in a cage
Way back in the Stone Age
   You blacken the Space Age

Each time you go on a rampage
   Won't you please try to gauge
How you impact the teen-aged
   You and your Road Rage

Your words are an outrage
   Once released, can't be assuaged
They disgrace your 'Golden Age'
   You and your Road Rage...

The giant blue and green dragonfly, 
with its broken wing,
tries madly to escape 
its silver cage.

The poor old thing doesn't belie
escape from its sturdy ring
is an impossible reshape
of its once golden age.

I turn away with a sigh,
realizing with a sharp sting,
that I, too, am caught in a dreamscape
of impotent rage.

O young!
Do not stop.
Till then you do not cross your aim line,
Getting your aim , likely sun you'll shine.
This is your golden age,
Give up your laze.
You can do now what you want,
Learn hard working from ant.
Which, the tiny body can do work whole day,
Then you, too bigger than that , can't lay.
Make your way and progress on it,
Never stop, o young! Never sit....

When youthful wings have taken flight
 and golden age has made her plight

 Inside remains our same strong soul
 despite the fight that takes its toll

 Though outwardly we slowly perish
 in our hearts it's God we cherish

 Hope stands stout to bring us through
 His hallowed love is all we'll pursue

 Until faith's sweet and final kiss
 ushers us on to eternal bliss...
