scratches of illumina
she paved the way for brilliance
as i melt with insignificance
with eyes and stares shadowing my path
a slight chill of a passing glitch
as i turned sideways
to see nothing.
as midnight came crawling in the afterworld
slow as dust with the reposing wind
as the twilight enraptured within
placid and longing.
abet me to forget the pain
to learn invulnerablility;
with your mystic grip
touch me -
shield the antagonists away
beneathe the sun's unclouded light
taking over, conquering.
wanting to look beyond
i gaze with drenched eyes
and came to realize -
your presence, your beauty,
will forever remain..
and in death you still create
new roads --
growing, strengthening.
la nature morte en un peinture...
you are the still life in my painting,
in my picture,
in my eyes..
in my being.

for mom
note: sorry, no energies to finish my illo for this week..

Love your poem My Love, its beautiful
"your presence, your beauty,
will forever remain..
and in death you still create
new roads"
and then the french line is beautiful find/thought.
[btw babelfish translates it (nearly) opposite in dutch;
"de natuur die in verf is gestorven"
"Nature which died in paint"]
"colours are vibrating in their forms"
its full with life.
kissssss Ambres
beautiful
i feel that i don't want to move and break the spell
wow! sorry i haven't visited in a while. the new layout looks awesome! much cleaner and easier to read. love the colors :)
cool new layout. cool new poem.
Ambres sweetie.. thanks again for your lovely interpretation..
Sometimes i wonder how wonderful things don't last a lifetime. BUt the memories do.
And maybe nature died in paint for the sadness of beauty's departure. But like nature, a rebirth occurs. a new spring comes. It may not be exactly the same as the last time, but anticipating brightness but not forgetting the past makes one grow. And in growth, colours vibrates in their forms..
kissses back..
oh, and btw, yeah i dont trust babelfish that much. hee..
floots.. the stillness kept me in awe for quite sometime too.
dreaming-neko.. thanks for dropping by again. been a while indeed. brighter colors probably indicates brighter things ahead. just waiting in my corner to see..
Sen, Billy.. thanks! i aprreciate your time spent here.
My cling to the thoughts of my mom just strengthens this time of the year. ANd i feel i can never replace with words what she has done with acts..

i like the first part bout turning sideways and seeing nothing, someth i would have loved to write about. if the picture was taken at dusk or sunrise, it would have been perfect
x.. it is indeed not taken at dusk, for i do not see only the darkness of my mom's departure but the brightness that shines my way... hence, the photo i took.
Beautiful writing... And I love the new layout
this is a lovely poem and deep....made me remember my mom, too.
how are you doing velvet? how's hte christmas spirit over there? have you finished your christmas shopping? i miss ayala center and the happy sound of christmas despite the crowd of children and parents, teenagers you name it. there's no place like home.
LS.. thanks 8) and for the new layout i still need to make little changes tho.
isay.. thank you isay. and yeah christmas here is completely different from other countries. in fact, my sked is so hectic, going to Xmas programs, parties, even a wedding and a baptismal. i even have to allot a whole full day just to wrap gifts!
as for the crowd, the malls have tripled density of crowds indeed! with the shopping rush and mall sales.. woah! no time for blog updates too.. hehe
I hope you find energy soon :)
thanks for your thoughtfulness.. well, busy days these past weeks indeed. But made an illo now tho its late for last week's topic. pff.. maybe another one tomorrow for "holiday".
oh, your poem took my breath away. i, too, hesitate to speak, not wanting my helpless words so much as to cast a shadow on the loveliness you have put here...
beautiful poem...
many blessings to you...
