E. E. Cummings
the wind is a Lady with
bright slender eyes(who

moves)at sunset
and who—touches—the
hills without any reason

(i have spoken with this
indubitable and green person “Are
You the Wind?” “Yes” “why do you touch flowers
as if they were unalive,as

if They were ideas?” “because,sir
things which in my mind blossom will
stumble beneath a clumsiest disguise,appear
capable of fragility and indecision

—do not suppose these
without any reason and otherwise
roses and mountains
different from the i am who wanders

imminently across the renewed world”
to me said the)wind being A lady in a green
dress,who;touches:the fields
(at sunset)

Douro que corres por querer

Correr sem direcção por encostas esculpidas,
Brilho nas noites de luar em que te sentes só,
Amanhecer com névoas ainda adormecidas,
Rio meu, de meus pais e avós....

Tua melancolia que parece humana,
Nas tuas margens sargaço que emana,
Rio que escondes segredos e enganos,
Sejam eles grandes ou pequenos.

Douro dourado de um sol fatigante,
Rio feito de amor por sua gente.
Esbate teu amor nas sombras do salgueiro,
Sublime e excelente conselheiro.

Rio Douro esverdeado e também azulinho,
A tua límpida água parece ser puro vinho,
Rio do Douro belo que à alma dá prazer,
Sede de sempre tua água beber.

Victor Marques
Douro, encostas, vinho

I want the Sorcerer's Stone
I'll break it into two
Just for me and you
We'll be young forever
In town singing blues
worry-less cause nothing to lose
Time machine would be no use
Inhaling freedom on sailing cruise
It's like a dream come true

Passing glances

We pause midst the sadness and dare to seek
eachother within all twisted shapes

••

Drowning in a sea of mass illusion
we seek our own personal and private  delusions

Our own gentrified madness

as we begin simply to **** eachother in more
perverse ways

••

Passing glances

We pause midst the search for gladness and dare to seek
eachother within these twisted shapes

-

I ask

WHO
OF ALL THE PEOPLE HERE WILL HAVE
FOUND HAPPINESS 20 YEARS DOWN THE LINE ?

(Few!   --- ALAS!

So precious few ! )

••

The WHOLE WORLD is a person
and your true lover

If you don't love HER first
You can never love another



WISDOM is necessary and is not an addiction

••

Praise the DAY
Know it only as YOURS

Little Candle
 Apr 2014 S
Megan May
Her soul was a candle flickering in the palm of his hand
Slowly eating away at the wax until it was only the faint murmur of a flame
He ran across deserts and over mountains to try to find a safe place for this little candle
He constantly added wax, trying to rebuild it so it could feel powerful again
He cupped his hands together tightly, trying not to let the breeze slip between the cracks his fingers made
He tried his best, and so the story goes, his best happened to be just enough
The flame of the little candle grew under his protecting watch
It grew large enough to stand on its own, to fight the wind and the rain and the storms all by itself
The candle still needed him though
He provided more wax whenever it was needed, and stuck around to make sure his candle was alright
And she was.
Forever indebted to him, she stood as a beacon of hope for the hopeless, and a symbol of love for the lonely
Forevermore.
