The Poetry of My Life through My Writings and Journeys
A song of agony
A song of faith
A song of love
A song of hate
Sing me a song
You’ll never go wrong
No matter what melody
To nurse the barren memory
It doesn’t really matter
As long as i can relate.

A wonderful quote by Friedrich Nietzsche inspires me to create a poetry.
In awe of the sound
a queen without a crown
a wondrous spell
heavenly hell
voices of the strings
surrendering to your king
entranced by its magic
its joys and its tragic
dancing to its rhythm
fulfilling its mission
while others are watching
but no one’s listening
for they can’t hear the music
and in silence that is golden
the master speaks its voice
waiting for your choice.

Love is like a dance.
You hear the music.
You’re in a trance.
You feel the heat.
Dance to its beat.
It swept you off your feet.
A fast or a slow music
You can’t refuse its magic.
And throw away the logic.
Keep on Dancing.
Embrace the music.
Keep on Loving.
Yield to its magic.

The lyrical sound
of that heartbeat tone
You surely connote
to the feelings of dawn.
When the moon starts to fade
Waiting for the sun
As the movement of the clouds
Preludes the intimate dance
The waltz or the tango
As green as the mango
Yields to a ripe
Just a matter of time.
The rhythm and blues
Sound of a truce
A waiting muse
Or a bomb to diffuse.
Explosion of emotions
As the music creates illusions
Bewitched and bemused
By the rhythm and blues.

Walking all the way to the flea market alone and excited, and arriving in Aloha Stadium with no direction or plans, except to feel the crowd and the products i’m expecting to see.
What is Hawaii without pearls and seashells? Trinkets and Accessories….so many booth selling stones! (hold it, semi precious stones you would normally accentuate in your wardrobe, not the one you were thinking, hmmm).
What caught me by surprise is the air of reggae, Bob Marley’s photos scattered all over the place as if you’re in Jamaica! Rasta and Reggae wristbands immortalizing Bob Marley. The color of red, yellow and green even on the cups and juices. I was stoned by surprise! Hawaii is really a land of volcanos, rock and stones. You’ll never know what will hit you by surprise.
A melody to one’s ears when you hear music while walking on the street of Quebec city. After a beautiful dinner, just a few feet away from Hotel Sainte Anne , across the Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac, we saw this musicman playing his saxophone. Can’t help not to have my photo taken as his music is not only pleasing to my ears but also fitting to the serenity of the place. And voila, the next day, early morning while walking on the same pathway i heard a different sound from another music guy, this time playing with his beautiful harp (a really huge harp) truly it’s not just the talent that creates music, it’s the heart.
