Perhaps the next βThe Diary of Anne Frankβ will come from America: a family being hidden in the basements of America until the USA divests itself of fascism.
Let us all hope for a better outcome.
Awaiting the Sun Remember, the fallen leaves in the frail end of the day, must settling on the senses like slowly falling snow, as autumn makes it's play. Remember the darkened eve stalking the faltering sun, lifted then vanquished rays as the new night prances upon the embers of a day. Dream of the new born spring taking back it's recast crown, filling morn with nascent dew, strength growing by the clock, chasing old and frigid cold away. Come, my king, the leafy bough and larking bird in bright song, regain the day full brought high. Fill me with your brand new joy bringing forth your spring bouquet.

Remember, the fallen leaves
in the frail end of the day,
must settling on the senses
like slowly falling snow,
as autumn makes it's play.
Poem about shyness. this is the story of a life part one. the birds flew south marked by the clock while the man below governed by chance jokers wild met her glance and upon a vaulting beat of the heart coyly turns to spurn the worldly ways of love while up above the birds flew south so he berates himself even a little hates himself and when a second chance to say, in a rain-refuge cliche, fails him again words of innocent love from inner voice remain a stranger to his mouth while up above the birds flew south

Poem called Finale about bereavement. the ship awaits us all invitation to another shore upon the final boarding call before the dark forevermore soon the sails will surrender to the course beneath the veil we will wave as we remember the light before the pale taken by the gentle breeze we will watch them sail away till soon the last of life leaves in the dusk of their final day

01.10.2025 10:32 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Poetry about dementia. still gold Once he loved her like the day loves the sun, their story shone with lustful and zested life. They revelled in their vital lives: duality served, in singular love and caress, upon a word or look. Yet now, his stare denies her pallid heart and remaindered smile. Love lives now only in long laments for the golden flower, here in its final hour, as the weld dissolves, and the constant becomes dissonant once more. He can't recall her face. Nor touch, nor kiss, no moments in joy, no days of holding, nor needing her. No name comes to his lost lips, no smile for her, save fleeting greet, and again retreat to an unfilled mind. She knows that once, the man was hers to hold, their flower was gold when love filled their hearts and minds. With hopes forlorn that, perhaps somewhere in the painful voids of her lover's old and crumpled mind, a petal lies, still gold.
