What a butterfly!
Today I took my usual daily walk, All alone, with no friend or other folk. The breeze was kind with clouds a bit gray, And people around passed in a rushed way. Beneath the sky upon a patch of ground, I saw a sight that made me spin a round. A butterfly so bright nothing could hide, Struggled to escape the sun...

Renewal?
Who would sell that which they do not own? Who kept quiet that truth not be known? Who betrayed souls their faith now uncertain? Who moved devils behind a secretive curtain? Who empties His houses in the guise of renewal? Who shattered its victims with lies and betrayal? Who conveniently had loss of common sense? Who eluded punishment expecting others to do...

The general
With the thousands troop, I the general stride. Below the land of ancestors pride. Where dragon soars and tiger leaps with might. For this, my sword tainted with river of blood. Bears felony's weight , a mountain heavy tide. My heart a rock, no regret, no shame reside. ...

My Love Teacher - 15 Years

The world is wide, and so he knows, To send his love wherever he goes. His kindness, deeper than before, Is something I can only adore. Though time has passed, he is the same, With love that...

Syria Reborn
From Syria’s land where silence wept, Our hopes arose. From grief they leapt. Through broken streets and skies so grey, We aimed for light with feet of clay. We sang a song, so calm and rare, Against the chains, against despair. Hand in hand, we dug for light, To chase away the endless night. With every breath,we marched for dawn, And Syria's soul was...

Premium Member A Giving Tree
A course-correction knife was plunged too late. A smile was still, upon her lips, that date. Clueless, for most of life, the cherries, green. Her shoulder-bluffs and high-peak cheeks are seen. She stands five feet, barely a statue-bold. Appears quite warm with bundled arms of gold. A pointed thumb at chest level. A charm Bracelet does shake with silver-fake alarm. The lyrics play...

Premium Member AM Verses on a Sleepless Night
