Skyward with wings that reach the sky
Like Peter Pan
Like Superman
Passion of my youth engrained was I...

The sky falls
Piece by piece,  tumbling,
Crashing, silently.

I pick up one piece,
Then another, and
Try to put them back.

Finally I stop, you see,
I'm not tall enough
To reach the sky....

Mule kicked and bucked so high, its
hind legs seemed to reach the sky...
Suffering from many a thing, but vowed 
to suffer war no more,
Soldiers differing with the stubborn 
beast, learned to sit in peace......

For my soul will reach the sky...

when my eyes have touched the ground...

I walk on...

kissing the air...

singing threw my ears...

and rattle the hell out if it's core...

for I live 4ever more.......

Song of The Palm Tree 

  The palm tree at the beach
Blossoms by enjoying the water
Supplied by the sea
Its wing - like fronds dances
To the rhythm of music
Played by the breeze
While it hopes to reach the sky...

one, two, and three swings 
higher, higher reach the sky
blossoms worn away

Teenage dreams of love and romance my life I had just begun
When sweet peace holds my breast, Jessie three, James two, and Mason one.

Fifty years ago on the moon went Man

T'was a trip that had long before begun

When he dreamed flying up high

To soar wished and reach the sky

Now planets wants to conquer if he can!

A quiet spot to sit, it seemed
Upon a boulder, way up high
Enough above the world below
Yet, unable to reach the sky

On this day, the sun was mine
A cloud winked a friendly fawn
'Serenity,' I named the stone
And fell asleep past the dawn...

I am gone

A whisper of a song

Long past

Went too fast

Lyrics chill to the bone

And turn to stone

Try to fly

Never reach the sky

Shake it off, try once more

What for?

Too late to fly

Forgot to say goodbye

I am gone

A whisper of a song...

go cast some spells,
ride a broom,
eat someone's guts,
and don't give a ,
life is short,
days are numbered,
matematic we are all dead,
practic, we still breath,
more y days will come,
so what!
lets make a pile,
i wonder,
how many  do we need,
to reach the sky?...

Some say that God’s kingdom is in the sky, or in the sea
The birds would reach the sky before you, the small fish would have found it
The kingdom is in us and outside us, we’re children of its king 


A poem based on a translation of the Gospel of Thomas (the language of the work being Coptic)....

The towering tide in the sea 
should not awe you by its height
This  is mere effervescence
Rising and falling wearily
On   the  bosom  of the foaming Sea.
The momentary peak of strength that it attains
 By  jumping out of its mass to reach the sky
Is as vainglorious and transitory As the Ego of his ‘I’....

I could smell the sunlight 
Fragrantly falling 
Like a morning perfume 
Over winter’s skin 
Sinking into the pores of the earth 
As it sped along its way 

I watched as the trees 
Lifted their noses into the air 
And waved their arms about 
Endlessly trying to reach the sky 
As if to say 
Good morning...

Hello Mr Rainbow, today
You’re so pretty up high
But why is it you only play
When rain is in the sky

I’ve got my best umbrella
The one that keeps me dry
You see I am a little fella
So cannot reach the sky

I’m waiting for the rain to go
So I can find your end
So wait there Mr Rainbow
I will be your friend...

I am a bubble.
People see through me.
And yet, there are still few who see wonders
in my almost invisible rainbow-like colours.
With their slightest attentions and most timid smiles,
I am appreciated.

I am a bubble.
With the air I move and dance,
Carefree and unmindful while I soar.
As I reach the sky, I fade.
Only to join the wind once more....

R-ise and reach the sky, 
E-ven though the clouds are gray; 
N-o reason to worry about, 
E-arly thirty-first of May. 

U-se your wings and glide, 
B-eginning to soar up high; 
A-gainst the rugged wind, 
L-et them both bravely fly. 
D-espite the broken wings that truly make you cry; 
O-perate and spread them both, rise and reach the sky....

A brave girl goes ahead and fights for her right
       She sees herself as a falling star and tries to reach the sky
 Success is found by only the few but she dares to chew iron beans
                She may be a dancer and she may wear jeans
                Who are we to judge her and create scenes?
                            Are we Gabriel or are we God?...

Dark distant clouds well above in action 
Escape from my sight like a true fiction 

A large ocean below is indeed an inspiration
 To solve the mystery of the mighty illusion 

A dream of success is now within my realms 
Singing a poem with all the rhymes 

To fathom greatness of the sky and the ocean 
Fly to reach the sky Swim deep in the sea ...
