I'm a wanderer in a highlandI'm the farthest star at nightI'm the deepest rock in the riverI'm the golden ray of sunlightI'm a pastel shade of crayonI'm the second hand of the clockI'm the blade of grass so greenI'm a moment of silence in havocI'm a dew drop on a carnationI'm a gulp of water...

FRIENDS BY THEÂ LAKE
Once upon an ancient timeWhen I was a few years oldI knew the world as a free placeWhen it was only starting to mouldI shone above among the starsBut they shunned me for my little scarI felt alone until one dayA human wrote to me from afarI surmised it was a rhymeThat praised me for...

Sometimes I read things that transport me to a world that is flawless… To a world that enchants and holds me spellbound… To a world where time stands still… To a world where purity meets perfection and simplicity meets beauty. And I want to thank the writer to pen such words that make me smile... Continue Reading →

AN OLD STORY
Dust particles dance in the piercing lightAnd silence echoes in the hallThe old portrait has a story to tellOf a love affair that started here in fall. The grandfather clock doesn’t chime anymoreBut the chest of drawers holds photographsOf him. Of her. Of them together.Ghosts of memories sing here and clap. Infested curtains watch the...
