- How Long the Winters. -
Tracks are left
unwittingly,
worse yet,
innocently.
Here then is the withering yet well-meant critique,
the beleaguered affection,
the reserved greeting,
the casual dismissal through pursed lips,
the don't count on it,
the wait until tomorrow,
the maybe next time.
We survive the casual cruelties
somehow,
our wounds licked,
emerging warily into the light yet again,
blinking back tears
beneath an unforgiving February sun. -

We write poetry so we do not die from history. – - Meena Alexander -
I am not the type of person who wants to go back to the land. I am the type who wants to go back to the hotel. -- Fran Lebowitz -
At 17, Joan of Arc led the French to victory and I just looked for my phone while talking on it. -- @Sassafrantz. -

This creativity-killing headache isn’t going anywhere, so #tbt to when living in the city was a huge adjustment and wistful, melodramatic poetry was my favourite coping mechanism.
Tuve un amor,
Que no pude ver.
Alguien que puede entenderme,
Que conoció mi dolor.
Y ha vivido el mismo.
Con una perspectiva muy linda.
Y con una destinación,
Que quiero.
Y a ella,
Pongo en una silla más fea,
Sin ventanas.
En la bondi boluda. #4#poemadiarioespanol#argentina#buenosaires
🌈Positive Thinking🌈
.
.
Keep a positive thinking and know in life
Sweet and bitter both things do survive
So we must not lose hope in the test
Then God will surely give us the best .
..
So don't let a gray or a blue mood prevail
Make best use of time and avail
The nice opportunity that is given to you
To see this painted world of hues
.
..
So in life if ever in your pace
You see troubles standing face to face
Then don't lose hope or ever sigh
Just cling on to hope and try .
..
To smile and then strongly stand
In front of troubles and understand
That joy and sorrow are the things
That both come to us in life's ring
.
..
So its better to face them with smile
And walk steadily for a while
And keep positive thinking and know in life
Sweetness and bitterness both survive.

A poem about a favorite movie of mine as a young girl and the images within it that spoke the loudest.
Still the Same. -
When I saw the film Dr. Zhivago,
what stayed with me most was not
the winter palace sheathed in ice,
nor the vicious stabbing
by the vengeful brother
in the exotic palace ballroom
while revelers danced,
not even the two opposing armies,
grimly, excruciatingly
goose stepping toward one another
on the road outside, the row upon row
of impossibly young soldiers, their heavy boots
pounding the frozen Moscow street,
moving ever closer until face to face.
No.
What stayed was this:
Zhivago’s return that sunny afternoon to Yuryatin
and his beloved Lara,
after his escape from the army,
and his months-long trek across Russia.
How simple it was for him, after all he had seen,
to retrieve the skeleton key
from the niche in the wall
and climb the snowbound staircase
to enter her lovely rooms once again.
To find himself, astonishingly,
there,
her tiny apartment fully intact,
her soup simmering on the stove
while she was briefly away.
There is her bed as Zhivago remembered it,
the same linens atop,
the finely-stitched pillow of her grandmother
propped on the bed at the same angle,
her family photos lined up
in the same identical order above the fire grate,
warming him now as it ever did.
And the soup spoons
still in the same drawer. -
