When the light dies out
7 June 2020
Light is love
Darkness breeds the hate
We translate
Emotions
Anger is a reckoning
Of the love waning
Northern star
Life is within you
Embracing
Nothingness
I feel it your soft caress
Piercing through the veil
Hold me close
Within your bosom
Love to flout
All about
The darkness tends to blossom
When the light dies out
Reading of the poem:
Quinn – I will believe
Like doll on a shelf
30 May 2020
Icicles
Playing with my tears
Uprooted
From the trees
Falling they put soul at ease
On weather’s arrears
The water
The heart deranges
Fraying path
Through the veins
Its wake the mind estranges
Seasons of our pains
In their light
I renewed myself
No longer
Prone to flee
Circumstances that shook me
Like doll on a shelf
Reading of the poem:
Eurythmics – Here Comes The Rain Again (Freemasons Remix)
I dreamt upon a summer night
13 March 2020
I dreamt upon a summer night
The soft winds talked to me
Of your white wings they bore in light
Over the deep blue sea
I leaned upon the garden’s door
Its frame a gage of you
As your gait then appeared ashore
Our love renewed so true
You carried me within the flowers
You were knight, I queen Bee
They wilted as we counted hours
That you and I could see
Reading of the poem:
☼ Sun in my eyes ☼ music by Saint of sin ( feat. Jasmin Faridi )
The wolf played act so meek
8 March 2020
Ripples in his tides had gathered
The wolf played act so meek
Spotting golden fleece in the herd
Approached it tongue in cheek
The darkness bore it through the eye
The prey that he did seek
He turned to glower at the sky
Saw clouds upon them bleak
Then burdened by this new defeat
He gazed upon it slight
Turned the slate to become new sheet
Softly renounced the might
Reading of the poem:
Harrison Storm – Feeling You (Official Video)
Music in soul played along
7 March 2020
Planets surrounded his slight frame
The moon shaped his glory
A shadow aloof with no name
In him untold story
I breathed upon him melodies
Danced entranced for his eyes
All efforts spent for him in ease
Enticed his very sighs
Desire got him to his feet
Throb in heart felt so strong
With tenderness skipping a beat
Music in soul played along
Reading of the poem:

As I realised some of you are kind enough to like my poems in French even though their French is a bit rusty or some just because they like the images and the feel of the poem without understanding much I have resolved whenever I can to put up a translation in English. It is difficult because the French language allows you to hide many more meanings into the same sentence and I find it less possible with the English, especially if one wants to respect the poetry rhythm and requirements. I have attempted to keep the below a Shadorma (in between brackets figures the correct translation of a word that I might have changed a bit to keep the Shadorma syllable count and in one instance I have put up another possible wording where the French word has more than one meaning). Thanks as always for your comments and encouragements 🙂

When we think it right
5 August 2015
Sun sets in twilight
Between two minds grey dusk spent
Covering all bonds
Footsteps of dark coal
We walk lands of no morrows
Erasing ourselves
Storm white covers Earth
In hiss of untrue nature
Lost are memories
Brief instant now past
The bliss of our true nature
Memories don’t last
Lightning strikes solemn
Piercing grey veil of dull scorn
Vivid rays light all
Cast shadows find light
Correcting their curves within
When we think it right
