Goodnight

goodnight

Positions and possessions
Fill our vision and our sight
But with the passing of today
Into memories far away

And the sun of tomorrow’s
Dawn begins its daily plight
All our earthly joys will pass—
We will bid them all goodnight

Fall’s Cold Bite

Cup of hot tea with lemon dressed in knitted warm winter scarf o

Fall is in the air
The cold is biting my skin
The day is dark
Sun’s bright light is dimmed
And I know it is just around the corner
When I will be taken back
Back to that time of my life
To that knock on the door
Telling me
Oh, telling me
So cruelly
That my loved one
Is no more

Share Your World – Week 12

When was the last time you sat on a park or garden bench for more than ten minutes?

Last week my friend and I sat on this bench and had coffee. It is in the park right outside my house. There is a corner shop and bakery right next to it.

Would you ever be interested in observing a surgery or do you turn away when the nurse brings out the needle?

Easy answer, turn away, I could never be a doctor. I ran out the house and far away when I heard my sister started choking on a fruit pip when I was 12. She eventually passed out, and my mother yanked her up, dislodging the pip.

Where’s your favorite place to take out-of-town guests?

Sydney city

If you had an unlimited shopping spree at only one store, which one would you choose? Why?
Probably Apple store for iPhone6 and gadgets

What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

For some reason this feels really difficult to answer this week, because I suddenly started feeling sad. I’m grateful for my family, and looking forward to finishing a book I am reading. South Africa’s top Serial Killer Sleuth Piet Byleveldt. It is not light reading, but I am strangely enjoying it *best book I’ve read in ages*

Thank you for reading!

Forever

Forever I will believe
Always will I know
That I have placed my all
In thy caring hand
My hope is in thy
Eternal land

Nice Dress!

Bigstock black dress

Lady in black
Lady divine
You look amazing tonight
Lady be mine!

You over there!
Looking so grand
Yes, I will be yours tonight
Here is my hand!

Kiss me awhile
Gentle and deep
Is this really happening –
Am I asleep?

We are awake!
Joyful, sheer bliss
Hands, so soft, touching my face
Share a sweet kiss!

Now to go home
Time to confess—
You were beautiful tonight
Such a nice dress!

I met you when you were newly born
Your face touched my heart, and you were mine
Companions we have always been
And I miss you now so terribly
I wish you were here to be with me
I will never forget your love shared
So unconditionally
You were mine, and my heart was yours
Wherever you may be, my dear beloved one
I’ll hold your essence right here
In my memory

He Smiled At Me

Dreaming blond retro woman with a book sitting on a meadow

He caught my eye
He said hello
He smiled at me
He smiled at me
My knees are weak
My tummy’s flipped
I feel alive
He smiled at me
There is no magic
In this world
But for this feeling
He smiled at me
