Haiku

First days of Spring

tears fall from brown eyes

as rain pours from the heavens.

This version of Clair de Lune is so romantic and sweet. The best one I have found by far. Relax and enjoy.

Full of gentle and powerful emotions, this masterpiece will have you surrendering your soul, even if just for a few moments. Enjoy

Enchanted and emotional, this beautifully orchestrated piece is pleasing to the ears.

Dreams

Image
And all my days are trances,
And all my nightly dreams
Are where thy grey eye glances,
And where thy footstep gleams–
In what ethereal dances,
By what eternal streams.

EDGAR ALLAN POE, To One in Paradise

The Poet

“A poet is a Nightingale who sits in darkness and sings to cheer it’s own solitude with sweet sounds.”
~Percy Shelley~

 

Into the darkness peering

“Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.”

~Edgar Allen Poe~

MEMORIES OF LOVE

Image   

A warm finger brushing away the icy chill of a tear trickling down the cheek.

Tears glistening like diamonds in her eyes when he understands her pain.

The warm swelling of pride in his chest when she stands strong by his side.

The light of fierce joy in a child’s eyes.

Two wrinkly hands holding each other the same way they did fifty years ago.

The laughter of making snow angels and catching falling snow on the tip of a tongue.

A mother’s kiss for the boo boo on her brave, sniffling child.

The sound of two hearts racing, leaning in for that first kiss.

A warm smile melting the ice around a heart that has seen a long winter’s night.

The freedom experienced by the heart released from a sentence of unforgiveness.

A feeling of happiness when seeing the smiles on the faces of those you hold dear.

The breathlessness of two souls caught up in the rapture of an intimate embrace.

The smell of a grandmother’s baked goodies greeting your nose at the door.

The sparkling light of mischief in a beloved grandfather’s eyes.

The elation of triumph and long suffering in the face of adversity.

The wonder of touching baby’s soft skin for the first time after the painful throes of labor.

A warm hug to lift the spirit’s on an especially difficult day.

The promise of hope that carries you with another reason to keep going when you wanted to give up.

The sensation of waves breaking against the rocks, surging energy and strength into the soul.

The relief that fills a heavy heart when shown the love of graciousness in a time of need.

A good word spoken in love and given at the right moment.

The all consuming power of love wielded to protect the innocent and those we love.

Written by Celeste.

All that is Gold

“All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renewed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king.”

J.R.R Tolkien
