A Dream by Edgar Allan Poe… (via androxa)

A Dream by Edgar Allan Poe In visions of the dark night I have dreamed of joy departed- But a waking dream of life and light Hath left me broken-hearted. Ah! what is not a dream by day To him whose eyes are cast On things around him with a ray Turned back upon the past? That holy dream- that holy dream, While all the world were chiding, Hath cheered me as a lovely beam A lonely spirit guiding. What though that light, thro' storm and night, So tre … Read More

To a butterfly…. (via androxa)

To A Butterfly I've watched you now a full half-hour, Self-poised upon that yellow flower; And, little Butterfly! indeed I know not if you sleep or feed. How motionless! – not frozen seas More motionless! and then What joy awaits you, when the breeze Hath found you out among the trees, And calls you forth again! This plot of orchard-ground is ours; My trees they are, my Sister's flowers; Here rest your wing when they are weary; Here lodge as in a … Read More

Le Panneau… (via androxa)

Le Panneau Oscar Wilde Under the rose-tree’s dancing shade There stands a little ivory girl, Pulling the leaves of pink and pearl With pale green nails of polished jade. The red leaves fall upon the mould, The white leaves flutter, one by one, Down to a blue bowl where the sun, Like a great dragon, writhes in gold. The white leaves float upon the air, The red leaves flutter idly down, Some fall upon her yellow gown, And some upon her raven hair. … Read More

I feel sorry…. (via androxa)

I feel sorry By Marin Sorescu 1936–1996 Marin Sorescu Translated By Ioana Russell-Gebbett I feel sorry for the butterflies When I turn off the light, And for the bats When I switch it on . . . Can’t I take a single step Without offending someone? So many odd things happen That I want to hold My head in my hands, But an anchor thrown from the sky Pulls them down . . . It’s not time yet To tear up the sails. Let things be. SOURCE Roxana alicegeorgi … Read More

SMILE…..!!!!! (via androxa)

How can one smile such sweet smiles, When one is so saddened by sorrows for miles, How can I smile the same smiles, When life brings me nothing but tears, I wondered for so long, What reason you had to smile that long, To keep smiling though troubles come, And still remain sweet and silently overcome, It's such a mystery to me, Your smiles from heaven with glee, I adore and yet envy thee, But I'd rather you smile those at me, I feel happy when I … Read More

Communication… (via androxa)

Communication Breakdown, What’s happening today? We don’t say what we mean, And we don’t mean what we say. We trundle along in life, Not speaking when we should, We wait until it’s too late, And then say nothing good. We don’t look at each other, Nor smile as much these days, We are all so busy, Being busy is the craze. But what is so important? That we don’t really talk? Why don’t we make time? Instead of running, we could walk. We use our text … Read More

The taste of love… (via androxa)

Chefs (like me ), authors, musicians, actors, poets, so many of us have very strong feelings about food. Why is food so emotional? Scents of food stir up childhood memories, cooking for and feeding someone is one of the sweetest gestures in the world, even watching someone eat can be a delight. Food and love are undeniably connected. roxana ado feck my love rokssana zamfirpop vizualw labulivar verovers theodora0303 theodora0303 harrylequin teo Te … Read More

It doesnt interest me… (via androxa)

It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing. It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive. It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon. I want to know if you have touched the center of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life … Read More

Come fly with me… (via androxa)

Come fly with me…. We'll wing through mystical whimsy, feel the wind of unconquered dreams in our face… soar on the fanciful illusions of souls bold enough to fly free. We'll weave through webs of long forgotten hopes… brush the soft lips of what still may be. Donning our rose-colored glasses, we'll then plunge through the lonely of grief. We may explore but briefly, the tree of truths seeing them only as we wish them to be. We'll tickle th … Read More

The Sea and the Hills… (via androxa)

The Sea and the Hills Who hath desired the Sea? — the sight of salt water unbounded — The heave and the halt and the hurl and the crash of the comber wind-hounded? The sleek-barrelled swell before storm, grey, foamless, enormous, and growing — Stark calm on the lap of the Line or the crazy-eyed hurricane blowing — His Sea in no showing the same his Sea and the same 'neath each showing: His Sea as she slackens or thrills? So and no otherwise – … Read More

Umbrellas In The Rain…. An assortment of coloured umbrellas, Fending off the rain, I wonder if those, concealed underneath, Have had lives disturbed by pain, With the greyness of the sky above, Their bodies crouching low, What is the message that greets the eye Where do all these 'bodies' go, There's a feeling that they may be hiding Not only from the rain, But that is just a 'thought' of mine, And I could be wrong – again!

A good book on your shelf is a friend that turns its back on you and remains a friend. ~Author Unknown A book is like a garden carried in the pocket. ~Chinese Proverb There are books so alive that you're always afraid that while you weren't reading, the book has gone and changed, has shifted like a river; while you went on living, it went on living too, and like a river moved on and moved away. No one has stepped twice into the same river. But di … Read More
