medieval thoughts
of an escape into open skies
like much advertised commercials
of a flight out of obscurity
coming out of a black hole,
like an era,
as golden as it may seem

a moment in time waiting
some capture of happening

it is all a matter of chance
like results of years of penance
being ever honest, helpful,
kind, devoted, caring, loving...

isn't that what human nature is for?

but, if there's no
reciprocation
of heart-felt feelings,
will it lead to a society
that lacks procreation
of humanity?

after all, kindness does come
in strange currencies
like little drops amongst
wide expansive seas

words don't come out easy
particularly the ones that say
'Sorry, please forgive me' or
'I promise you true love all my life'

no, the right words are never said right
but then, some words are best heard
in silence
just like some birds never fly
together in love,
and to some forever sounds like an
ugly word --
of promises never kept

it's time for renaissance
it's that just time of the year
to spend some hours of essence
with all those near and those dear

and once that is done
please try to pardon
me too

it's time for renewal
and to grant forgiveness

extend a few donations
of that silver spoon to
me too

---

it is a collection of some words that kept pouring ... thanks for coming by...
