I like rain, not angry rain with an attitude
neglected by the mother cloud and take revenge
for its misbegotten infancy
lashing those who sought peace and the promise
of forever, with ice blasts
soft rain that feels like a caress, a day in June
Drips from my blue umbrella feel like kisses from
a long-time lover
I like rain, not angry rain with an attitude
neglected by the mother cloud and take revenge
for its misbegotten infancy
lashing those who sought peace and the promise

soft rain that feels like a caress, a day in June

a long-time lover

IF YOU WERE A ROSE
IF
YOU were a
rose I'd spend
hours admiring your
beauty, your color,
your open petals
the exotic scent and
aroma from your
stems; even the prick
of the thorns would
feel good.
IF
you were a rose I'd
water you, feed you
care for you and protect
YOU.
BUT sense you are more
beautiful than a rose I
will double my care, love,
desire and pleasuring of YOU.
OKAY?

Thank you all
Reflecting on all the love received here…
The support and comments have been wonderful. I’ve been away a while but still always near. Good luck, success, love and joy to all.

the day of the dead
The day of The Dead.
The cemetery in Loule is on top of a hill, today
early spring the steep hillside is full of luscious
yellow flowers. Not like ripe lemons, more like
Swiss butter, from the rich milk of cows, will bells
and horns; sturdy feet able to carry big, rose-pink
udders and be milked by smiling maidens with
strong arms creamy white as a Valkyrie’s bosom
What you didn’t see- all this life- when blinded
by the intensity of every sunlit flower came
from rotting coffins, the...

it really is all about the journey
never an easy path
so I offer you my hand
however...remember
I only hold you steady
just long enough
as find your own footing
& I'll be right here
if you have any need
...should your feet falter
but I won't carry or direct
this is your path
only you can walk it
no grasp holding you back
unwavering
I'm always near
waiting for you to take that leap
carrying you out of reach
because, girl...
I so look forward to the...

a seaman's life
A seaman's life
Looking at the map, I have been to most countries
that have seaports but no time to explore work had
to be done whether it was Monday or Sunday
I have crossed many seas. The Pacific Ocean had
long, deep waves, the Atlantic Ocean had sharper waves
while the Mediterranean Sea could not make up its mind
The Black Sea wasn't blue and looked darksome; the ship
was stuck on ice flakes
The country we seamen preferred was the USA
we could get our shopping done and buy stuff for
friends at home, shops stayed open longer ...

Golden Wings
each day my eyes
look to heavens horizon
while God hugs my soul
thru His grace and luv
I can feel your heart
hugging mine so tenderly
visions thru closed eyes
sacred memories of you
still brings tears within me
majestically singing hymns
in a gown of pearl white
with golden wings you appear
before I awaken from slumber
peacefulness covers me
with a blanket of luv from you

a true sentence
A true sentence
As Hemingway said, start with a true sentence
the roof of the school building, I can see from
where I sit on a cloudy day is grey as lead
when lit up by sunlight that has broken through
the clouds, it turns silvery and pleasant to see
That is, a true sentence about what I see, but it
is not what I'm thinking is a love story that
began a summer's day, lasted with its drama
when days got shorter and the wind bitter
leaves shrunk and fell on a rainy street
The true sentence is the gripping sadness
the knowledge...

his women
His women
All my life, I have done my best in avoiding to be a father
The reason was to avoid the drudgery of married life
That brings us to Elon Musk and his many children
Some of them through the natural way others conceived
artificially, as he believes in building a stronger who can
tackle the future, I agree with EM there is much
Tainted blood in the world
I think of his many women if they do not love him
It must be of financial benefit for them to secure them
From poverty, Fair enough, but does this make them
A more moral...

The way home2025-04-21
Good afternoon
I'm back to where my fortune began
the fortune I betrayed by moving away
not for any reason that I momentarily
thought I could find an easier life
a place of clean underwear and breakfast
A place where I could sleep to nine
that had a café on the first floor and peopled
by sure people, safe in their middleclass
restricted world where everyone followed
a rule written by convention
where animal life was a fluffy dog or
a sweet blue cat where street dogs were
humanly put down. ...

it must not go unsaid
It must not go unsaid.
they were charming people who understood my concern
to have an ill wife who needed care more than
an old pension can bear was to invest with them in
a scheme that out great dividends
An investment where my uncle's son was the facilitator
what else could go wrong, his skeptical heart
sensed a new spring and leaped in the hope of a new
dawn, free of the struggle, which bill to pay today
When the time came to harvest the award, they
asked for more, much more than he could offer
He shut the door,...

On my desk, the driving glasses, a 15-year-old is in a right
mood for it has been a struggle
for the glasses to be
accepted again after I bought a new pair that cost me a fortune
The state of the art frame,
yet useless, but I will not buy new ones.
My old glasses
purchased in a small shop that had no pretensions of being unique as
master of Spectacles,
alas, you have to tell people you are wonderful and apex and that
cannot be surpassed or not, people avoid you and go for the
liers and cheats in suits.
