the wealthy couple
The wealthy couple
who live on an island in the Far East
but once a year, they visit Europe
every year when I see them, they have changed
Alas, I wish it had been for the better
both are followers of a health regime concocted
by a Guru of the type that prays on the rich
they are now advanced middle-aged (below 61
and in the hope of staving off the time of elderliness
they trim and live on a lettuce a day.
Their effort are valiant but in vain time always win
At a distance and in the afternoon light, they look fine
like...

ARREST ME
Arrest Me
I do solemnly and sincerely swear that the evidence I shall give
Shall be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth...
Firstly allow me to say “i love you” to this vanilla taste-like creature with a soft chocolate skin standing here.
Tit for tat, what’s mine be mine, i want to make a plea;
Your honor, Mr Cupid I am pleading not guilty.
Yes of-course there is no ring or even a print on her finger,
For i never get a chance to insert it.
But our secret matrimony be my general verdict.
Fury not but we do not need a jury, ...

The Legend of Relámpago
I’m going to tell you a story about a masked avenger,
Faster than Zorro and more agile than a luchador,
He fought for those who couldn’t defend themselves,
I’m talking about the one and only – Relámpago!
He had been a lawyer and a local sheriff,
In a small quaint town just north of Mexico,
And one day after the mafia couldn’t buy him,
They killed his family with one harsh blow.
His family’s funeral took place on a rainy day,
Even then the mafia would still not let go,
He was attacked in the middle of their burial,
And left for...

the richest man
The richest man, in the world
To be at the top of a trade or business must be a burden
that also goes for famous artists
I'm thinking of a man so wealthy he can buy anything
he desires, is there such a thing as limitless preference?
for a business type, it must be hard
to understand
people who are happy with less and have no hunger
to walk the extra mile for slippery glory and medals
and prizes were given to him for his wealth and not
for his personality, that when faced with
the nonpractical discourse appears to falter ...

I took a stroll with Death, Life and Love
Recently, I took a stroll with Death,
He held my hand, reassured me, there was love in his breath.
“This is my way” , Death’s voice saddened and sorrowed,
Sadly you are only guests, living lives on time borrowed.
We did the rounds of the wards,
The love, hope and care, it really deeply surprised me,
“We don’t give up without a fight”, I said,
Death agreed, he smiled, ye humans are undeniable…
And in those moments I realised,
Death was actually teaching me about life,
Peace, joy, hope, sorrow, human ingredients,
It now dawns...

Let Freedom Reign
I shall not perish, despite your relentless try,
My freedom will rise in the midst of strife.
Even if I fade in the struggle for my right,
Another will take my place, continuing the fight.
So, persist as you might in your oppressive spree,
For the spirit of freedom will outlive me.
In the echo of courage, in the call for what's right,
My legacy endures, an unwavering light.
My freedom will rise in the midst of strife.
Even if I fade in the struggle for my right,
Another will take my place, continuing the fight.
So, persist as you might in your oppressive spree,
For the spirit of freedom will outlive me.
In the echo of courage, in the call for what's right,
My legacy endures, an unwavering light.

The Champion
The Champion
Through the cold, dark nights of many moons.
Through the days of the harsh, angry sun
he travels the lands where he is needed
to face the horrors from which others run.
He has faced demons,
slain monsters,
dragons and giants
bringing the innocent such pain, often death.
His mission, the champion to all in need of his aid
shall he provide until his very last breath.
Oh the princesses he has loved throughout all of his trials!
The damsels he has rescued as he has traveled these ways.
But...

Under den Linden
Unter den Linden
I have a soft spot for the German language
when a toddler, I had free access to a military camp where they had enormous horses and let me sit on top of one of them (looking up horses,
I think they were Belgian draft horses)
Since I was 5 years old at the time, I reserve the right to be wrong
My mother said I could speak a little German
I don't think so, but when the Brits and the Americans came, my few words of German were too soon forgotten.

My sexy, friend, cowboy. Part ???
Thank you Wes !!
For coming thru for me last night.
I needed help and you came to my rescue.
I guess we're just friends now and ill take that.
I called you and needed help and you didn't hesitate to come thru.
It was great to see you.
You said I was one of the strongest willed women you ever met.
My dad said that once so it touched me.
I still love you but im glad we're still friends.
My sexy cowboy and true friend!
I still am amazed and still wonder was I dreaming but it was not an erotic encounter. Just a friend.... and I needed...

January««thought
A January Thought
Not being happy with planet Earth, we wonder if there
on other galaxies so far away that even Elon Musk
can bring us there; should we, on a day like this first of January, find the mystic planet we may find, to our surprise, it is just like ours, where people fight wars about what belongs to whom! We could have saved
the expenses and set about repairing the damage disbanding armies, will be hard surplus national pride must be dealt with still, I don't think smaller nations
should disband, before the USA and China do
Why not Russia?...

new year many times
New Year many times
This afternoon, I have watched many new years all over the world, in Australia, New Zealand, and other nations
it is all the same as a fireworks display (the Saudis has
the best and longest one)
I have, minutes ago, seen from the terrace the sky is afire happy fireworks, and I hear the jubilation
Sometimes, we have to enjoy the moment, in Cascais
the sky looks splendid, and this is not the time
to say the moment spent on this frivolity could have been better spent on the poor
The TV camera is out taking picture of the...

The land of honey?
Most Americans I know of are writers and artists
who sees when a crime has been committed
alas, the US government and its politicians are held
in the grasp of the Zionist who has thoroughly
corrupted most of those who carry a big responsibility
for world peace, fail to do so.
I love America, but my love affair with this great land has taken many knocks and led astray by enemies within its border who have, because of US generosity, been able to grab the political power and rule America
