The Super Hostess

It was as a little child
And one who was very shy
That I first looked at the sky.
Soon enough I started wondering and asking myself

The Two Ages

On a great cathedral window I have seen
A Summer sunset swoon and sink away,
Lost in the splendours of immortal art.
Angels and saints and all the heavenly hosts,

Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Lepanto

White founts falling in the courts of the sun,
And the Soldan of Byzantium is smiling as they run;
There is laughter like the fountains in that face of all men feared,
It stirs the forest darkness, the darkness of his beard,

G. K. Chesterton

Shadow

Here you are beside me again
Memories of my companions killed in the war
The olive-branch of time
Memories that make only a single memory

Red eye notching the darkness.

When I was little,
My life was half fear.
My nerves were as brittle
As nature may bear.

Gamaliel Bradford

Le Paradis

Des buissons lumineux fusaient comme des gerbes ;
Mille insectes, tels des prismes, vibraient dans l'air ;
Le vent jouait avec l'ombre des lilas clairs,
Sur le tissu des eaux et les nappes de l'herbe.
.....

Emile Verhaeren

Uncle Ananias

His words were magic and his heart was true,
And everywhere he wandered he was blessed.
Out of all ancient men my childhood knew
I choose him and I mark him for the best.

Edwin Arlington Robinson

The Season Of Loves

By the road of ways
In the three-part shadow of troubled sleep
I come to you the double the multiple
as like you as the era of deltas.

Le Port

Toute la mer va vers la ville !

Son port est surmonté d'un million de croix :
Vergues transversales barrant de grands mâts droits.

Hymn Of Breaking Strain

The careful text-books measure
(Let all who build beware!)
The load, the shock, the pressure
Material can bear.

piercing my narrow-chested room,
beating down through my ceiling-
smeared with unshapen

Lola Ridge

Le Lierre

Lorsque la pourpre et l'or d'arbre en arbre festonnent
Les feuillages lassés de soleil irritant,
Sous la futaie, au ras du sol, rampe et s'étend
Le lierre humide et bleu dans les couches d'automne.

A Message To America

You have the grit and the guts, I know;
You are ready to answer blow for blow
You are virile, combative, stubborn, hard,
But your honor ends with your own back-yard;

February Evening In New York

As the stores close, a winter light
opens air to iris blue,
glint of frost through the smoke
grains of mica, salt of the sidewalk.

Necromancy

My heart is made a necromancer's glass,
Where homeless forms and exile phantoms teem,
Where faces of forgotten sorrows gleam
And dead despairs archaic peer and pass:

Clark Ashton Smith

Man of the flame-eyes
And mouth with the bitter twist of in-grown laughter,
And little bald man . . . whose seeming stillness
Is akin to the velocity of a spinning star

Lola Ridge

Abîme - La Voie Lactée

La splendide forêt des constellations.

Victor Marie Hugo

The Wisdom Of Merlyn

These are the time--words of Merlyn, the voice of his age recorded,
All his wisdom of life, the fruit of tears in his youth, of joy in his manhood hoarded,
All the wit of his years unsealed, to the witless alms awarded.

From perished heavens cast, I fall and flare
Through gulfs by stellar orbits girdled round;

Be saint or be magician,
And where the burning Sword awaits
Defy the old seraphic ban.

A. R. Ammons

Right

The right thing is often the thing that we do when we think that we know what level of progress we are onto and how much more we need to do to make progress
The things that we want to accomplish are often the ways that we see something happening in a way where we want to understand how and what we have made for us to reach the certain level that we are onto in the life that we live
When we are doing things that help us realise who we are we learn that there are extremes that we are willing to go to to reach the level of success that we want to obtain
When we are offering harm to ourselves we need to reach a level that can help us realise that we need to be considerate enough to see through the fact that things are right

Greeting

The way that we greet is often influenced by the way that we are feeling
A greeting is just like a tap on the shoulder
When we greet we must make sure that we reveal our mood of greeting
There are different types of greetings

The Fudges In England. Letter Vi. From Miss Biddy Fudge, To Mrs. Elizabeth ----

Aquacide

The sandwashed banks and beaches breathe no more
They choke on the chilling chinks of households offshore
Mounts upon mounts of multiple mulch bid fishes snore
The sea below sick on its sickbed

Time

It takes time to get what I want from this path
What I wanted was not for it to seem as though it is a path
All I wanted to do is walk though step by step
I took leaps and it became a suprise that my success was like a miracle

Reatlegile Marumolwa

Give

I find it pleasing to give because I am getting what I feel is essential for the situation
My intention is to prove that what is done by someone else is something I can learn,practice and interpret into real life situations
I find it challenging to merge all this illusion of wanting to make the unbelievable achievements a mystery
Making it a mystery has helped me to achieve a lot more than I had expected and therefore I am working harder for myself

Reatlegile Marumolwa

Time

The things we do with our time are often influential to us and the others around us
Our surroundings are the place that we are used to the most and therefore we feel very safe about where we are
There is trust in the circle that we are in and therefore we are reliant on each other
The things we do influence each other for us to become better as a collective and therefore we are reliant on religion
