My God Is Great...


With the news I get, from across the seas,
I tell my God "Oh he's too sweet",
They say you are, just like me,
Leaving all aside, I wonder how can that be.

Seated outside, to stare at the trees,
I remember we watched, the birds and the bees,
Oh, how we ran, we defeated the breeze,
I felt like a baby, I felt so free.

I'll never forget, how you cried with me,
I do remember, your favorite color is green,
Please come back and stay with me,
Time spent with you, is like a daydream.

All of a sudden, my mind triggered,
To the days, I continuously told my mother,
I prayed to God one day after the other,
My faith always said, I'll have a brother.

With laughs and cries, this time went by,
But for what I prayed, I never left a sigh,
Hiding the paper, deep inside my mind,
I drew the image, of the dear brother of mine.

Like Adam was put to sleep that day,
The art of mine was covered by hay,
Until the sun's brightest ray,
Brought back the image and showed me the way.

It took four years for me, to know about a sibling,
When I was almost nineteen, I heard all the bells ringing,
In my head when I heard, that my aunt’s baby is coming, 
Maybe he's my brother, my mind filled with joy, was screaming.

From far away, and across the seas,
I longed for a call, that brought the news,
The fifteen years, just dropped down to a few,
My God is great, I always believe, 
I heard her say, "let's call your brother Cookie".

Oh, Sweet Maiden!

  A burning flame, Glaring at, the steaming lane, The land of all, massacred slaves, Ripped by love, the origin of fate. Oh, that land, the rose crammed bed, Jammed with laughs, and smiles unshed, Pure as the heart, of an infant at rest, Led by the God, of foul prospects. The enchanter, of the dark, To the illusion, of a delicate arch, With the maiden, of sweetness at heart, Stepped in to, a mirrored witchcraft. Swinging and swaying, the ballerina passionate, Sliding and leaping, the pianist considerate, Stumbling and collapsing, the maiden naïve and laid, Weeping and hollering, through the crack sorcery reigns. Maiden, sweet maiden, dumbstruck, betrayed, Threw fits at the mirrors, of the enchanted cave, Left at the wilderness, to wither and break, Oh, sweet maiden, Queen Insane. -Nataliya Ludwick- @thepoeticvoyage

Your Only Choice...

Looking at the clock, Trying hard to stop, The time that runs, With more to be done. Staring at the setting sun, The wind conveys, the night has begun, Fakely accepting, the praises that surrounds, With regrets about, the things undone. The curious eyes, started her chase, Girls with grins, running out of the gates, Guys crawled in, with their long face, Another hopped to shop, with the money he made. The doves flew towards their cage, Owls flew out, with their scary gaze, They all switched shifts, each and every day, For nature's company, isn't that great? When things take place, in unexpected ways, Good things take time, is what they say, Sorrow and joy, may join the same day, Life needs the company of patience, is what I say, In this life things may delay,  But your only choice is to stay. -Debra R.

I Continued...

Looking through, the window inside, On this wonderful day, the sun is bright, Little birds sing, a joyful rhyme, A bride prepares, for her carriage ride, In between four walls, I continued to write. Children screamed, come quickly let's hide, By the tree he sat, for the shade they provide, Cheerful little girls, enjoyed the slide, Mom continued to say, "come eat your rice", In between four walls, I continued to rhyme. The silver fountain, standing tall outside, With the sun's rays, it had to shine, The birds dance, and sing inside, What a beautiful day, what a beautiful sight, In between four walls, I continued with a sigh. For understanding there was, a great big fight, To understand and forgive, was a great big crime, Living with regrets, is the lesson taught by life, In this crowded world, I could not cry, In between four walls, I continued to fake smile. -Debra R.
