Flower of Time
To be, or not to be, that is the question. william Shakespeare
One morning, the wind caresses the meadow.
With the clouds, the violets dance.
Lying next to her, I want to go.
In this story, that gives a chance.
The rose is love, desire, and passion.
The flame makes us lose our heads.
And at that moment, it gives us the illusion.
Of a feeling that turns blood-red.
The lily on the coat of arms, the flower of kings.
A delicate fragrance of unrivalled purity.
Reminds us, for a moment, of all those things.
Castles, princesses, a bard, and his melody.
But the flower of time is taking our will.
Never forget to water it, or time will stand still.

Lifting the Curtain to a Successful Month
April has been a fantastic month for me in terms of writing endeavors. I’d like to share what’s been so great about it just as many other writers would do. Share successes. I’ve noticed other writers or artists have shared successes and when you just see the snippet of their success, it appears everything has been going right for them all along. But we haven’t seen behind the curtain, we haven’t seen their hard work and their failures and those months that were fraught with disappointment. In everyone’s case, it’s far from the truth. But for the outside observer it isn’t always apparent.
