A Raven talked to me,
(Blackest of Nights).
Asking questions
about her life.

While tears are falling
(From the Skies),
I found myself
crying by her side.

Searching my soul
(in the Deepest Ice),
She died this morning
And my sadness is rife.

Looking inquisitively,
(Blackest of Eyes).
Weeping Willows,
their leaves are blighted.

I thought that nothing
would tear us apart.

I miss her,
(Deeply)

My Broken Heart.

Far out in the open sea, building nests on the water’s surface,
A hungry seagull took flight to the beach.
Flying over, she noticed me and looked me right in the face,
observing from the shore, I was eating a peach.

She wanted some food, and she did not hesitate,
I felt honored being recognized as a friend,
and I gave her the peach, which she finally ate.
...I honestly thought that from heaven (was sent.)

A symbol of tranquility, wisdom, and healing,
some people believe they are messengers of God.
Watching her eat left me with a peaceful feeling,
but in a second, it was gone, and all of it was pretty odd.

Disappearing into the horizon, she flew away,
and the sun slowly set. It was the end of the day.

The shadow’s tight passage and the narrow door
is the entry to a vast ocean of unprecedented uncertainty,
where there’s no up, no down, no here, no there,
no good, no bad
only a boundless expanse.

At the bottom of the well,
You will find the pearl that fell
from the king’s crown.
But the well is guarded
by a red dragon.
to claim the pearl,
You must slay the dragon.

To drink from the healing, potent dark waters of the well,
You must descend into the depths,
where silence sings,
And time unravels,
And the self is undone.

That, my friend,
It is the first test of courage,
If you must transcend
weakness and helplessness.

And to swim with a silver fish,
The saviour,
The bringer of healing.

A long time ago 
There was a blue fish,
  
Who yearned to slip 
Into the big blue sea, 
Where nobody will 
Bother him. 

But instead, he spent all of 
His time swimming in circles
In his fishbowl.  

Until one day, 
He stumbled and fell. 
Causing him a severe 
Back problem.  

His physician recommended 
Him, 
To get a job as an acrobat 
In a circus, 
But there, 
They only had work 
For clowns.  

Since he already had 
Experience 
Being the laughingstock 
of his hometown when 
He was young, 
He gladly took 
The job.  

But to tell the truth, 
People hated him. 
And everybody threw 
Tomatoes every day 
at him during 
show-time, 
Making him feel
very sad.  

There was no other remedy, 
But to endure the situation 
With courage,  

So he opened his umbrella 
and rode his monocycle 
on a tightrope for years 
until he began to gain 
The respect of the people.  

He worked in the circus 
Until his retirement day,  

By then, he had become 
A famous Goldfish.  

But with nothing at the end,  
Had no choice 
but to 
Spent the last days of 
His life, 
Among some wooden horses, 
In a nursing home.

There was this burglar 
With a master plan, 
Conceived long ago.  

To steal a precious Pearl, 
Kept under lock in a gilded box,
By a powerful man.  

He stole the pearl, 
And ran away,
But soon everybody 
was looking for him, 

The Police, the F. B. I, 
Spies from the C. I. A. 
and even the President 
Of the U.S.A.  

The powerful man 
Offered a reward 
Of one million dollars.  

And the authorities issued
An interstate arrest warrant
Across this big Nation, 
Wanting him Dead or alive.  

A fugitive for quite some time, 
Finally got forced into
An Inescapable Position.  

Cornered in a dead-end Street
With no way out, 
But to jump from
a one-mile-high cataract
at the end of the road. 

He had no choice but to jump, 
And he fell and fell
until the water down below, 
hard as concrete, 
Stop his fall. 

"He almost broke his neck, 
But he didn't." 
And you know, when you are young 
Time heals everything.  

And when he was lying there Wounded,
The pearl slipped out of his pocket,  
And this one was transformed into A Fairy, 
With a nacre shell colored Gown, 

And seeing him there, 
She took him in her arms,  
And disappearing into thin air, 
...Nobody saw them again.

A massive tabular Iceberg
floating among an ice sea.
Climate change-induced chaos,
Between disruption,
A new phenomenon has emerged.

In white, desolate landscapes,
a single building sits there.
Smoke came out from the chimney,
a cozy, warm blanket, and a cup of tea.

Blue and Orca whales,
Penguins and Sea lions as well.
Incomprehensible beauty,
and a reason that I cannot tell.

Pristine mountains, dramatic cliffs,
Majestic white openings, chasms, and rifts.

Mother Nature...Dying,
I can feel her pain.

A couple of Sparrows...Perching,
at the top of the tree.

Standing in silence...Crying,
I see them from my window pane.

Noticing me...Spying,

They caught their breath,
And in a minute, Flee...
