Our Ukraine, by Rui M. (Portugal)

Land of hearts and bread

Harvests, mountains’ wheat

Lands of abandonment with forgiveness

And Summer of sun and gentle heat

Land of brides and grooms with flowers

White shirts, with snow’s color

Fades, the love dies,

By the bomb that wasn’t stopped…

The hot blood flows

Red as rose Vermelho como uma rosa

And we feel Europe’s urgency

Shame on our hope…

A music... from Canada...

Green clippings, by Rui M.

One night I photographed leaves in the skies ...

Black sailboats, cut out of moonlight

and I evaporated in that cold,

of backlight, immensity and proximity.

I felt like I wasn't already there,

but in the firmament, far away ...

Heat breath exhales ...

In the lens of the camera I held her during a moment,

but she is there, eternalized for those who want to see her;

the Tree lends the branches, I the hands,

God the light, the moon seduces us,

and us, the others: the illusion, which paints with magic,

this life, that, one day, was born in us.

Enjoy.

Light of this year,
All over me
All over the sky,
Create on me eternal strength,
Make this happiness a state of mind
A Forest of lights spreading light,
Glowing whisper, enduring smile,
Let me be your pupil.
Darkness always eyes' opposite,
Sun, heat me with your art and heart.
An Art of iris' color, heart's emotions.
Mary Happy Time:
To all my friends, my readers :-)

Enjoy.
