a quick shrug, ***** my shoulders - anger rolls to floor.
I wade through it - bear love and hope a little higher over its tides.

Capture me
with your voice
let it to my ears
instil a thrill
let it wash my soul
with its timbre
let its strength
calm my fears
in its tone I hear
all that a voice could
ever contain
the sun’s warmth
the soul’s wash
of the gentle rain
capture me with your voice
hold me
enthrall me, captivate me
thrill me now

If you are sad, then sing,
About each and every anything.

If you're happy, then dance,
Maybe even in your underpants.

If you're violent, perhaps enlightenment,
Time to give up your entitlements.

If you love, it's from above,
From that celestial place we've all heard of.

Be kind. Please. First be kind.
We need a kinder world.

is a Picasso. She paints
it with the mascara wand. Rising
at dawn to roll the tube of crimson
wax to color her lips. She dips in a brush –

not for dust. But to sweep the powered
roses on her flesh. The shadow she sees
are mint green or azure. Depends on
the day if she’ll wear less or add

more. A pencil isn't for
writing the script, She underlines
her eyes with it.
In love

One needs to
Close the eyes
Open the heart
Embrace the soul

Follow the steps
Genre: Observational
Theme: Everything that nourishes the soul is love.

The grand prize
love seen through
an adopter's eyes
are precious child
diamond's guise
Like a rainbow
which suddenly appears
flooded by colors
magical it seems

Will it come? Υou don't know
neither where it'll find you,
you're waiting for it though
in order to spellbind you

What is it, you wonder
skeptical your mind
a hint you may need
to set your thoughts in line

Imagine you are hungry
it makes a meal to eat
Imagine you are cold
it has for you a coat

And when you doubt yourself
it sees the best of you
"You're beautiful" it says
and makes you smile again

You now may understand
this riddle is going to end
a-four-letter word you seek
the magic is beneath

it's the Eternity you wish it last
as well as the Respect you got
"Ours" is the word you enhance
while Sense is melting in his arms
