The first written poem by Mankind
dates back several thousands years...
even the Bible writers used it to inspire
as King David did in his spiritual Psalms.
Then, the intellectual Greek and Roman poets
performed it daily in the amphitheaters of their great cities
as the most popular art form so meditated for anologies...
and it never gets old, it still inspires us with its verse.
Read all genres: from ages past to our present time,
to discover that human feelings are equally sublime:
joy, pain, hope, love, triumph, defeat, envy, betrayel, hate and happiness...
among those you have read so far: which ones have made you speechless?
Be overjoyed that our poetry will live on after we'll be gone,
our names proudly set in stone: it's the greatest honor bestowed upon us;
and the ones who admire our work will definitely carry on,
hoping that they too will partake in that ureal glory...even surpassing ours.

So many wonderful days
I have missed being apart;
ah, they're limitless to count
with their charming, romantic ways!
A delicate, pleasant scent I left
on those young lips softer than velvet;
oh, it must have been the sweetness
of my Valetine's chocolate kisses!
My lost moments can be relived through past memories...
if I dare to look back, making believe time stood still:
to recapture escaped dreams from a boy's teary eyes
that wanted to live them out with a most desperate will.
Whoever feels the absence of someone he loved from a true, innocent heart,
ought to feel some sympathy and share that secret with me;
I would love to smell and touch those flowers I sent to my lonely sweetheart...
when I stare at a cloudless sunset setting on the calmest sea.
My lost moments can be relived and still be cherished
as they were then...if only fantasy could turn into reality,
and fate stopped time in its track as it should!
It might be ureal or out of reach, but not an impossibility!
