Time... 38

What is time but our planet’s movement around its star,And the star’s movement in its galaxy? We fantasize about time travel, But the truth is We’re too small in the face of the Universe to change its laws. Our only chance is to move forward, Because the Universe moves forward. Time is this social construct that we invented for ourselves to make sense of it better, But in reality It will be here with or without us, For as long as the Universe exists. ~~~~~~~~~~ From my new book of poetry Despair and Hope (2004), page 93.

The Solstice... 73

They say summer starts today.Today is the longest day. I sit on my porch and soak in the sun, Up until the very last moment of it, Till the last bit of sunshine. The last sunrays of the day gently kiss my skin. It’s always a glorious day, The longest day. There is only one sour note about the longest day of the year – All the other days are inevitably shorter. But the sweet note is that there are still many sunny days ahead, And I will embrace them all. The days after the solstice may go shorter, But the summer goes ripe once its longest day is over. ~~~~~~~~~

POEM: Inspiration... 145

• Moda
• 14-04-2024 01:20

She’s a lovely but moody lady.She doesn’t come to me when I call her, Or when it’s a good time for me to write. She only comes to me when she pleases. My book depends on her, literally. There wouldn’t be a book if it weren’t for her. So, I learned to listen to her when she wants to speak up. I learned to make her creating mood work for me. I treat her with coffee and cookies when she makes an appearance. We sit together at the table when she visits, And we start writing. I absorb every word she says, And I let her lead the way. ~~~~~~~~~~ From my book of poetry Sunset in Toronto, page 122.

POEM: Poetry... 125

I sit at my desk,An open notebook in front of me. My fingers tremble with anticipation. The blank page stares back at me, A canvas yearning for the brushstrokes of my words. I close my eyes, Seeking solace in the depths of my thoughts, Where emotions intertwine and memories whisper. And then, like an ethereal muse, inspiration begins to bloom. Words dance in my mind, waiting to be brought together on the white page. I grasp my pen, And I let the ink flow freely, Like a river finding its course. Sentences form, weaving a tapestry of emotions and experiences. Each word, carefully selected, holds the weight of my feelings, my longing, my pain. It is in this sacred space that I find solace, Where my heart spills onto the page and transforms into poetry.

Happy Easter!... 170

Today is a beautiful spring day. It's sunny and bright. A gorgeous blue sky with playful clouds. It's a mild tempretaure today, 7 degrees Celsius. And it's Easter Sunday. Easter is a time of the year when Mother Nature fully awakens from her winter slumber. Nature doesn't wake up from her deep sleep instantly, but rather she takes time in stages to come back to life. To me, the very first sign of spring is March 1st, the first calendaristic day of spring. The winter months are over, and March is the month that officially marks the beginning of spring. Then the daylight saving hour comes along during the second weekend of March -- in North America at least. We move the clocks one hour ahead to make a better use of the daylight. Now we SEEM to have longer days, the afternoons are
