Spotlight.... and C u Later!

Perfect

This much I’ve learnt:

Cannot be always right
So hardly ever- in fact.
My knowledge
Keeps on being
That imperfect union
Between the outside
And myself.

But that constant link
With all its imperfections
Does not undermine
The importance of that bond
Of one thing
To the other...

My dear Brian has 'spolighted' me today at One Stop Poetry

This means to me more than an award or tribute, it's a recognition of a work I've been doing for too long now- I am afraid...

I take this opportunity to thank everyone at One Stop Poetry and all of my dear blogger friends, followers and readers for their always encouraging and supportive comments on this blog.

I must apologize for not having visited any of you in the last few days, but my private life is taking up most of my time, so blogging has become more a burden than a pleasure...- :-(

I've decided to stop blogging for a while, until the time is right- again!

See you all soon!
Joy always
and
Sweet hugs to everyone!

GOT TO PAY

You are not ill

But need to pay

That bloody bill

You got a fine

Taxes and toys

For your boys

Get up early tomorrow

Have to work

Great deal...

You pass him by

You feel sorry

(Just another one)

Not even look at him

But he’s got all the time in his life

To stare at you

Mum, why is he begging?

Why don’t you give him some of yours?

He’ll spend it on drugs

Maybe he’s hungry

Well, then he should go to work...

But she knows

Neither drugs nor work

Will do.

His misery, a mystery

Only he knows

But, somehow

She too.

That’s What That Is...

Now I know

Withhold its meaning

What it represents

Now I’ve got it

Don’t need revision

Or extension, for

Now I know

There is no need

To feel that anguish

Or that eager passion

Painful disappointments...

Now I know

It’s real

It’s for me here

To keep and conceive

No need to constantly

Pray for a miracle

A ‘please don’t go’

Or 'up show...'

Yes, I do

Know

Love is beyond all that

Beyond frontiers

Barriers,

Self-cruelty

Weeping fears...

It is more about...

It's especially-

...That peace

That grows in me

As I feel thee...

JUST CLOUDS

A Walk in The Clouds, by Missunfortunate (Deviantart)

There you are

All of you and I

Unique actual observer

Making shapes, you

Trying to convey

What right now, I

Can into words

State, translate

All of you and I

Today you are picturing

The whole World map

So clear

Subtly…

Africa becomes a huge dragon

Whose mouth

Opens wildly

To eat America

Which escapes

Wings open

Right towards Hawaii

(Although those were

Not there before…)

Until

it completely vanishes

Into a free transparent layer

And the Italian boot

Is now a claw, huge

Approaching

As if wanting to

Kick Spain

Which flies up

To Greenland

And so on…

Until

Eventually

Venus shines back

Beside Sister Moonshine

And

Winks at me

Good night.
