If just for a while
Let me part, go far from thee
On an unknown isle,
I want ye badly miss me,
And ever the more love me.

Love is…too much, too little, and just right.
Love is…what keeps hope in sight.
Love is…the flickering in the dark of a long lost light.
Love is…my throat caught in a lightly bleeding bite.
Long has it been that love is all that and more
Once it was the strength and warmth in my core
Vague memories, fleeting feelings, and aching is all my mind stores.
Eventually it’ll be okay, I say, as the next drink pours.
I have been adrift, falling into a rift,
Swift switch off the cliff til lift proves a gift.

Love is…something about which to write.
Love is…full feelings once the flame ignites.
Love is…cold when it ends in lonely nights.
Love is…too much…too little…and just right…

Do I fill the page
Expressing amorous beauty in
This page is not enough
Like a water is plain and transperant by giving us assurance to full our thirst
Like the fragrance of flowers
the colors assured us that it is
beautiful to present our feelings
But filling a page for you my princess is called my
Expression of love or my emotions day by day is not
Enough to full the page......
In my last..........
Na dekha essa paray jismey rhey bas khamosi bas Yad karta hoon apni narazgi or chahat jo eshar karta rhata hoon apney iss kavita mai......
With love all

Shoes
Thousands of them
Old and shriveled up like prunes
Worn leather with no luster
Shoes
Walked in by men
Men of the past who died in a scream
One loud scream
One deafening sound
An echo felt from inside my soul
Chains and memoirs
Boxcars and stolen treasures
Today I leave this museum believing I am a Jew.

Hamary bary my zamana baty karta hai
Bola do hum ko wo kahti hai
Nahi chahti k badnam ho donu Zamany my
Ab tor do yah rishta Wo kahti hai
Na milay ga koi dunya mu tyry jysa
Rakho gi hamysha yad tum ko wo kahti hai
Dyty howy khatt wo ro rahi thi
Yad kar k tumhy muskaraw gi wo kahti hai
Khatt b ro raha tha lafzoo ko dakh kar
Us k akhar my sada muskaraw wo kahti hai
Ab is zindagi ka my kya karo
Marny ka sochu to AMAR us ke ik bat yad ati hai
Jina sirf myry lia wo kahti hai

K dil ki gahrae se nikal k har dum ek khyal aata h
Band hoti h aankhe to srf usi ka chehra najar aata h
Janta hu k kismat mujhe use pane ka hak nh degi
Pr bina kurbani diye bhe to pyar me mja kha aata h
K dil ki gahrae se nikal k har dum ek khyal aata h
Poonam ka chand aasma me jab kbhi dikhae deta h
Lgta h jise kahi dur koi naraj hum se baitha h
Dil k samundar me jab dubne lgti h yado ki kasti
To ek yad uski jise jeena, kahi dur koi kinara dikhae deta h
K dil ki gahrae se nikal k har dum ek khyal aata h

One of the most evil
periods
in human history
is vividly portrayed here
The proud hopes of the Renaissance
and the Enlightenment
gone up in smoke
like the murdered millions
Photos of cruelty and pain
cause me to reflect
on
the
nature of man
ponder what will
become of the
travelers on our hollow globe
Words fail to tell us
of the magnitude
of these murders
The horror and pain
have faded with the years
Light falling on the
snow in Jerusalem
creates patterns
in which those with deep souls
can forsee a better future
As the days and nights
continue to pass by
Perhaps one day we will all understand
We must try or perish
Evil must be remembered

I rebmemer when I was a cute, little dik
underneath my steehsdeb I would slip.
retfA finishing one fo Dad’s chocolate stressed -
ymmoM would daer me The Three elttiL sgiP.
As I nageb to worg into a fine, erutam nam
I wenk I was different morf other fellas -
Didn’t want to daer Ayn Rand’s - The deahFountain
I was totally derutparne by Keats and yellehS.
And when it emac to a laugh-aloud eritas -
my admired rotnem was Sir Odgen hsaN.
For erom deeper prose I’d inhale the segap
fo words penned by Plath and notxeS Anne.
Edward eeblA is my etirovaf playwright -
I am in total ewa fo his powerful sdrow
and I truly leef his most gninnuts masterpiece
is “Who’s Afraid fo Virginia flooW?"
I have gib dreams fo being famous eno yad -
like a Eugene Neill’O or na Arthur relliM.
But in redro for one ot rehpiced my writings

Holocaust Memorial Day, Jan. 27 (Sentanka)
Let us remember
Murder of the innocents
Terror and hate
Jerusalem's Yad Vashem
Sacred place for the victims
Lasst uns erinnern
Mord an den Unschuldigen
Terror und Hass
Jerusalems Yad Vashem
Heiliger Platz für die Opfer
Déjenos recordar
Asesinato de innocentes
Terror y odio
Yad Vashem en Jerusalén
Sagrado lugar de víctimas
Note: The International Holocaust Memorial Day on January 27 marks the anniversary of the
liberation of the concentration camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp on
January 27, 1945. The camp was liberated by Soviet troops and over 7,000 remaining
prisoners, mainly ill or near to death, were freed. It is estimated that at least 1.3
million people were deported to Auschwitz between 1940 and 1945. About 1.1 million were
murdered. Auschwitz-Birkenau is situated in Poland and was inscribed on the World Heritage
List in 1979.
