Spring has come slowly to us,Bringing with it its palette of colors.They are vibrant and are meant to be so;To feed our souls with their array. An end to winter and its malaise,Spring with its colors nourish us.Bringing us in better balance with life,So necessary for so many of us who hope. Hope for better … Continue reading Colours: Marjolaine Brodeur
Bilingualism: Marjolaine Brodeur
Fortunate am I to be bilingual for this has permitted me to watch a French-dubbed "Downtown Abbey" story which lately I have become addicted to. Though I would have preferred watching it in its original language I was pleased to touch base with a program that has touched my mind. Happy was I in the … Continue reading Bilingualism: Marjolaine Brodeur
Softly: Richard Edwards
Softly it rises into the sky,We wonder why?Gently the words fall from our lips To thy ear,It is a yearning of the heart,That the words say. It calls to thee,It makes thee awareOf your care Love is what you do,By the way you move,You put us into the groove, You are true,You love thee,For you … Continue reading Softly: Richard Edwards
Casualties of War: Robert St. Germain
This is a war, and they are fighting for control of our minds.It’s a war of ideals and it is never kind.The masters tell us what to feel and what to think.It’s our souls that get poured down the sink.The police of thoughts are on patrol.They say they are here to help, but they just … Continue reading Casualties of War: Robert St. Germain
Puppets: Robert St. Germain
We all have someone to answer to.And someone to tell us what to do.Some of us realize, well many never knew.The church and the government are part of the system that keeps us down.When I see people enslaved it makes my frown.We are all put in packages to make us comply.And most of us will … Continue reading Puppets: Robert St. Germain
Nirvana: Brittney Fox
I think of my experience here, as a pile of rotating organisms on this planet.And I think of my own expiry.When it becomes the exact time for my extinction.My distinct, estimated time of arrival to Elsewhere.Where you simply fall out of your skin and suddenly exist amongst euphoric bliss;Leaving behind only your ashes and currency.I … Continue reading Nirvana: Brittney Fox
Consciousness: Cassandra Kulay
Dreams cut a swath through my consciousness.Living in relief of my thoughts, my obsessions, and my fragile impressions.Love blooms like a cactus in the desert.Prickly but soft in the center.Those nightmares that stop my soul in its tracks.Left so exposed to the highs and lows.The heat and the cold.The paralysis induced by paranoia.A vision unfolds … Continue reading Consciousness: Cassandra Kulay
On Time: Cassandra Kulay
Time has a rhythm,like breathing, rising and falling.Special occasions calling.Diamond encrusted moments,embedded into our memory.Slow to come and fast evaporating. We’re all just getting through the day, somehow.Until days turn into weeks, turn into months, turn into seasons.Searching for the meaning,Finding new reasons to be.Inventing a narrative for ourselves that pushes us forward,or takes us … Continue reading On Time: Cassandra Kulay

Whisper: Robert St. Germain
A roar becomes a whisperwhen we let go of the past.Some tings die so fast,while other things last.A meteor can fall to the earth,yet it crumbles in the atmosphere.And it is only a mere rock when it gets near.Our courage can protect us from going too insane.And fate may find a way to take away … Continue reading Whisper: Robert St. Germain
