IN YOUR EYES

In your eyes
The Sun rises
From the far horizon,
Bringing with it
A new day,
A new hope.

In your eyes
The Sun sets
Beyond the valleys, beyond the mountains
Leaving behind

SHADOWS FROM THE PAST

Strident voices come to me
From all places,
From all times
To dwell in my head.
They are voices of the past that call upon me
Aloud,
Aloud,
Very aloud
To awaken the sleeping memories

SUCH IS LIFE

Rain,
Clouds,
Storm,
Light,
Wind,
And sun
This is life
A hybrid of ups and downs
Where the little brown cageling should dive,
Should soar,
Should fly as high as he can

THE BREEZE OF REMEMBERING

The breeze of remembering those cheerful moments
Still knocks on the door with so many comments
With deep griefs, with great laments.

It takes the heart into a wonderful past,

LIFE'S ECHO

And suddenly,
I found myself on the journey of my destiny
Taking with me my faith and my life's dictionary

My days were long,
My path was risky,
My entire life was in jeopardy

THE LAND OF MY DREAM

It was a new day
When I woke up in the morning
To find myself again in this tragic world
People are born to die,
The Sun rises to set,
The flower blossoms to wilt

ILLUSION

In the dark cold sea of life,
I was on the small boat rowing alone
coming from nowhere and going to nowhere,
The skies above me were cloudy,
