beyond the ripples of the wind...
how gently the warm breeze
caresses your leaves
these soon to be yellow
sycamore mat dress
dangling, hypnotizing and
swaying canopy of greens
the wind had chosen you
to pick and to play with
shaking your brown branches
as it peels off its clothes
of whitish papery thin film
your leaves must be
as soft as a cotton candy
that a child loves to lick
as the tongue melts
with its sweet sugary taste
my eyes love the notes
made by the ripple of the wind
a dancing demo turning
into drips of nectar
soothing tired spirits into sleep
God sends us a message
as the universe turns
as the light beams as the light dims
you smile then it becomes a
magical moment of silence
silence of whiteness, lack of darkness
filled with light covered cherries
as it envelops you, as it hugs you
you both danced in rhythmic pattern
swaying softly as the wind blows
as the wind breaks, as the wind wins
in harmony, in love forever
behind and beyond the ripples of the wind...
how true that real beauty is free. all we have to do is observe it, savor it and create a memory of it. life is really grand as i measure it with the gentle swaying of the leaves in front of me as the ripple of the wind plays with these happy sycamore leaves. tho' sad for it is soon be gone because of the changing of times, as the season moves on...(^&*)...this reminds me of the sahara desert. according to the history channel because of the wobble of the earth as it orbits the sun this shift made the once lush green forests and filled with fresh water lakes disappear leaving its inhabitants to die. this happens every some 20,000 years. that made me think how on earth could they come up with such calculations. based on the fossils and fauna unearthed at some parts of the sahara, it showed that it was really a great place for whales, dinosaurs, fish and the likes plus humans who lived with them then. imagine the tragic ending of these creatures which is kinda sad in a way. life dies as it ends. nature is beautiful as we live with it and because it has its targeted goodbye, the more that we need to think of nature as a play coming from our God for us to enjoy while it lasts...the sweet heart shaped cherries are or is my all time favorite american fruit :) as if you wanna know, laughs ;) why? for it denotes cheers, happiness, joy and all things bright and beautiful :) hmn, that was like a poem... all things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small, all things wide and wonderful for our Lord God made them all, kinda goes like that :>
"sa ngalan ng ina" and nora aunor. it reminds me of the very lovely teleserye titled "bituin" ...that carol banawa starrer with the very handsome young actor josh santana :) i think nora aunor sang that song bituin. but anyhow i remember googling for write ups about nora and that teleserye and landed on philstar and had come to read some quirky columns that caught my attention, laughs. a writer that could make you laugh is hard to find but i did, though sadly now things have changed maybe because life had turned into the void, laughs. but who knows life may become full again in the future and we will begin to laugh again ;) yes, it has been that long and now the reason i came to know some newspaper writers is now in the forefront again. i'm happy for her. i hope her experiences here in the U.S. will help her color her very shiny life even more. i'm just sad that i don't have access to her mini-series where i'm at for i have american cable not filipino cable...(^&*)... asia's best actress of the dekada, nora aunor, is worth watching, you becha :>
composing music must be one hard job. first you've got to have talent. second you need to be a genius of the mild or extreme kind and it won't hurt if you are borderline...(^_~)...music of any kind if it suits the occasion, it is always a blast :) "this year's love it better last" a nice tune but as we know you better count not, for love like the sun it will be gone at night and it will just leave you waiting and waiting in every sunset of your life for it is just fake love, laughs. oh well. sad in a way, but that's how life and love roll sometimes...from the www, the pic above is the american sycamore tree and a gently waving american flag. the same tree in front of me while i am typing this, swaying with the gentle breeze :) i love it. the dancing leaves of late summer...then comes fall, winter, spring, then summer again, my favorite season :) wow, life goes on in circles like the season. life makes everyone old no exception. but the unwise always uses to be younger as their weapon against the old and that makes me think of them of not thinking what's beyond. that they too will get old as well sometime in the future. it's just a matter of time :) no escaping to this reality of life...
and a bisexual nora aunor, what's new? laughs. okay now let's mind our own business and if we can't say anything good let's just keep our mouth shut :) if ever we just accept people as they are, right? would you wanna be treated the same? plus who are we to judge others, only God does that :)
