Another peaceful scene

Pink geraniums

flourishing in

white washed

artistically carved wooden pot

resting on white washed steps

that lead down a proud cliff

Nature

working together in

perfect harmony

Heaven to me

Heaven to me

white washed buildings

small homes. rectangles of life

leading down white washed steps

and Heaven

looking down

with another blue heaven

waiting for my footsteps

the gently lapping sea

Peaceful Scene

Two blue and white chairs

Keeping company

with a blue topped table

near to a blue gate

that opens

to the blue sea just

below,

wind gently blowing

the sweet salty smell

all over my senses

Sea side heaven

Sea side heaven

As waves roll and frolic

Trying to see if maybe

They can reach

Shore

This time

They almost reached

The playing toes of a child

Waiting Waiting

For the wave

To come

And play with her

Next one,

She says to herself

Next one

Will reach me

If not

Maybe I might

Go in

Or out

A bit further

And play

The wave

And

I

Pensive

How can we

Instill

In the souls of people

That extreme wealth

Can be as dangerous

As extreme poverty

They can both

Lead to extreme starvation

I Wish

I wish

I could

Swim like a fish

For a very long time

Lightly under the water

I wish

I could

Fly like a bird

Wings free and unfurled

Soaring in a clear sky

I wish

I could

be a leaf

In a forest

Big and pine scented

All wonderful things to be

But I think

I’ll just wish to be me

Spring Again

It’s spring again

In case I forget.

The song of birds,

Sweet melodies

Burst upon my soul

The sweet soft cool air

Caresses me

Even the “Acadiny” tree

Heavy with sunshine fruit

Inviting me

Enticing me

To taste just one, maybe two

My soul sings

and breathes in

Joy

I guess it’s Spring

Once more in Lebanon

Just thinking….

Yes for sure Lebanon

I breathe you

I’m aware of the fact that living beings

need air

to breathe

to live

I noticed a few things in life

one is that each country

has a different scent to the air

Lebanon’s air is

Bitter Sweet

Just

Like Life

At night as I walk

night air is Sweet

Morning air

Spicy and Sharp

Birds of summer in North France

Here in the north countryside

Many trees, many birds

crows ,pigeons and more I can’t name

even teeny tiny ones

hopping and jumping and making themselves heard

The crows are intense

but when in flight

can be good company

they flap in the trees making a commotion

then fly away and come back when they feel like it

So many different sounds

I wish they could parade, sing, and introduce themselves

Sigh

I guess I have to be contended with their

flapping and chirping and making music

Truly Divine

Treasures

I think we might have a wrong idea about what a treasure is.

Let us take Garnets, beautiful in a ring or bracelet or necklace or ear rings;

but let us compare Treasures.

Open a pomegranate

Slice open

What do you see

Clusters of juicy, glistening garnets

that melt in your mouth before they reach.

Looking behind paper thin walls for so much splendour

Yes, I would say

We might have the wrong idea about what a treasure is.
