Gather pieces of your grief,
Make them into a bundle,
Put it on your shoulders,
Carry it to the sea,
Leave it in the water.

Sit at fire
Sip coffee
Bite some baked chicken
Dance a bit
Have sound sleep

We have such capacity
I've done it
It's now your turn

Love rhymes, if lovers are in each other's arms, and creates waterfall music that's a delicious cake
At the celebration of anniversary

In the deep night
You remember the moment
Your child had shouted at you
Then you sense it was your failure as a father
Because you couldn't inculcate enough goodness in him

Being alone amidst nature isn't horrifying
It's rather a delicious adventure
And the heart is never ready to go back

When someone dies,
(Someone you know)
Is that one less annoyance,
A necessary replacement for a foursome,
A body pillow,
A pillow confidant,
A whining Bestie,
A conversational equal.
Is it someone you'd like to meet again, wherever,
Or someone you fear to meet again
(Knowing all is now known).
Was it an old school chum you recognize in a faded picture,
A near/far relative,
A faint acquaintance (that's sad...).
I read the obituaries daily,
Recognize many, but feel little.
But someone's someone passed this way,
And sometimes someone was mine,
Today.
A theme I can't seem to be rid of.

Smile
Is the best ointment

To remove the scars left by anger

Zero has no value physically
Still it gives life to digits and make them valuable

Never devalue any human being

Marriage isn't a knot of two ends of two ropes

It's the knitting of two threads with a beautiful design

You cannot win hearts of people by swords
Hug them with your kind and loving hands and they will be yours

Nothing was falling except snow

Killing each boring thing
Creating astonishment
