Truth to
Millennials
Is hard

Grandfather talk is
Lost on them

I do my best
As "honored elder"
To bestow what I know

Maybe they figure it out
Themselves

Your smile always makes
the morning better, and
there is no medicine that
can lift my soul as its
pure essence.

For you need not speak to
me with words, for your
eyes show an embracing
glow that lets me know
how you feel.

The life alive within
them  lets me know I
am always loved by
your heart, and treasured
in your thoughts

You daily show no matter
what happens in my life
you are the only one who
can make me whole.

It happened
Once
A stingy guy
went and met
a monk
about theft of his hidden treasure
monk asked, "Is you would have
Used the treasure in near future??"
Never, replied the man
then
Monk said,
the day you hidden the treasure
is equally as lost
You don't need it
Go and live..

channelled curiosity
reigned in.

eyes open
mouth closed.

the wind plays
like wind chimes

all across
your silence.

while your eyes
feast

never tire
of looking.

he screams
sky sky loving spirit
his greying beard
speaking to the greyish sky
he screams with a deep voice
while siting under the tree
gazes at the branches
he screams o dry leave
we are falling with a laughter
the lighting strikes
he screams no more sadness
his last word
heaven heaven be gentle

Jean C Bertrand

Tell me picturesque,
Why do you look beautiful whilst you sleep?
Is it that my heart has fallen,
Deeper than the ocean,
Or is it that I'm scared,
That you'll soon wake up.
