*Dreaming while sleeping, and sometimes awake
Whimsical fancies fueling escape

Wishing is for the uncertainties
Collecting more than three from genies

Checking out my daily horoscope
Astrology might give me some hope

Calling out all the deities I know
Bending my knees, blessings they might bestow

The magic still holds expectations
Of this world its seen from all views

But the signs are unclear, faded
It doesn't feel useful when put to use

And I still await, alone
For something that may just come passing by

Or maybe in the form of an angel
Dancing with howling clouds across the sky
Collaboration with my friend, NB. I'm so happy with this one, thank you for accepting my request!

This heartbreak
Unleashes the poet on me

i wrote a poem for you, even though i know that you will never read them
 Jan 2017 Chris Fortune

In between seconds and minutes,
     Lies an infinity of words we wished to say
     Are we going to leave it to the winds,
     To deliver our hearts messages?

     An instant connection, we feel it resonates
     Our eyes gave us away, screaming for attention, affection
     All the gravity in the universe
     Is pulling us towards each other

     You feel it too, are you listening?
     Will you walk through the storm of fate,
     That will lead us into each others embrace?
     I am listening, I will..
Will you walk towards me??

That one stare and you know that there is an instant connection..

Raw. First draft. I don't know where it should go.. i just feel the urge to write this.
Was just after four in the morning
and a full moon sails across the sky

So after falling asleep upon my bed
And not long after closing my eyes

I'm pulled to a distant faraway land
made of laughter and made of smiles

So I went to a fantastic fashion show
and sat amongst my butterfly friends

Music began to play serenely smooth
Musical note clouds floating in the sky

O'  a honeybee asks to dance with me
With me, and I couldn't help but sigh
An amazing and rare piece of antiquity
Secrets of the Voynich manuscript
I find So Mysterious yet so captivating 
A beautiful language not revealing
Uniquely expressive are the paintings
Somewhat exotic are the drawings
Leaves one with an astonished feeling
A  castle grand under a starry light
beyond  a dragon enjoying the night
And seven sisters soaking in a spring
As herbs and dainty flowers sing
Foliage green and blooms in blue
Stems standing tall, strong and true
Colors are vibrant bleeding through
Palms, and fronds and ferns, too
And inky blue with leaves of six
Roots partitioned into pieces and bits
Sunflowers and tiny red flowers
O' and a divine constellation shower
beauty imagined, beauty redefined
Oh this beauty I alone have found
amidst a poetic language unknown
penned with a quill by a poet of long ago
.....hopefully the poet would be honored with my tribute
Greetings and salutations,
Mr. President Trump
It's a beautiful day,
and congratulations
4 years and perchance,
Who knows 4 more!

Now the power is yours
to make lasting changes
improve our economy,
reduce our national debt,
And stop global warming!

Thanks for bringing back jobs,
and protecting our borders
Bringing back our dreams,
And making America first

For both Americans  today,
and future  generations
I hope at the end of 4 years,
I can say job well done!

Narinig ko lang pangalan mo
Kumirot na ang puso ko
Akala ko okay na ako
Akala ko lang pala
Masakit pa rin bes.
