Diago Rodrigeuz de Silva y Velazquez
a painter of reality on which to gaze
Talent oozed from every pore
climbing the greasy pole to the palace door...

Nicoletta Nunez announces noon and nightly news
Silvia De Silva sends the news at six and seven
Nunez is in Newark with De Silva in Seattle
Between them both, better bet there is broadcast battle

It take more than one thing to make a single thing,
So how we're in love and everybody have own thing,
We know silva, gold or diamond it made ring,
As body heart and soul make  been,
It take nothing to do some things to get something 
Do it is thinking while you acting ?...

A-larm, anxiety, and fear
I-rritate the mankind's mind; 
R-abid risk annoys the world, 
A-n antidote is hard to find.

S-ilent sickness in spread
I-mplements hurt andharm; 
L-ethal link of violent virus
V-iciously causes
A-larm.

Spanish sub-verse song scheme
Seven-eleven strings 
Stanza shared successions  
Several stunning strips
Streak soliloquy strands 
Subsequently stressed sounds
Sung smoothly; serenely

Souls in Heaven.

First, was Neda, then Sahar, now Mahsa.
She was forced to bend her soul.
Once again, a woman died.
The government's sordid role.

Mahsa's death in custody,
Must be steadfastly investigated.
So Ebrahim Raisi said.
Once again, Iranians will feel frustrated.

In Memory of my Beloved Aunt.

Someone I loved
Recently,  left  me
She is now in Heaven
Where the human evil,
She cannot see.

In God’s Kingdom
Now, she can rest
We pray for her soul
We do our best.

I am very sad, 
I was her niece
I know that my Aunt
Is now, resting in peace.

Joe 
Kind, loving, saddened, friend
Brother of Raymond, and Lucas
Lover of music, poetry and the hope of a better life lived.
Who feels depression, grief, heartache.
Who fears failure, love, and true happiness.
Who would like to see Europe, the love of a good woman, and a worry free 
mother.
Resident of Montebello, California

A Daughter of Iran.

Her talent is a God's gift
She paints with her toes
Her paintings are peaceful
Fateme Hamami has no foes

Some of the world rulers
Peace cannot paint
They prefer war portraits
Which make people faint.

If politicians could paint
Using only their brain
The world wouldn't have 
Death, hunger and pain.

Fighting for a New Iran.

Marg Bar they shout
At those they hate,
Iranians want changes
They are brave, they are great.

They must call for rebellion
So freedom voices say,
But when they need their help
Those voices are far away.

Opponents who gather on the streets
Are persecuted and oppressed
When they fight for freedom and justice
They believe they are blessed.

 young lovers carve a tree, a love professed for eternity, where hearts entwine, momentary bliss, then fade within the hands of time...


in the silva a weathered oak still stands
the heart agape upon its trunk
once carved by youthful hands
bleeds within the eventide
in beads of crimson hue
