The smell of pine needles will fill my flat.

Champagne, chocolate…and I’ll start my spree,

With three candles I’ll chat.

These candles will be my spiritual world,

The lonely party is always free.

My heart will be twirled and purled,

Curse of troubles these candles will be.

Elsa and Joan were truthful girls,

But just for fun they lied only once, 

On the day of their birth.

On the 6th of April someone asked :

When is your birthday?

Elsa used to say: It was yesterday.

Joan used to say:  It will be tomorrow.

I will meet my dearest fellow.

The next day they were asked the same question.

And…the answer was just the same.

There are countries where people have never seen the snow.

There are countries with no bridge.

Sorry for my giggle …

In the starry darkness of the night sky

The inspired poet’s rhymes fly.

They are quietly dreaming to live in a book,

For everyone to see the poet’s outlook.

Poet’s stanzas freely fly as rhymed constellation,

Spreading the light of the poet’s inspiration.

So, today, on World Poetry Day, my congratulations

To all those who know the sense of trochee and pent...

It was a cold January morning,

all around looked a bit boring.

In Washington’s subway

was the beginning of the ordinary day.

Everyone was in a hurry,

they didn’t want to worry

and didn’t pay attention

to the man I would like here to mention.

The passers-by didn’t clap

to the man wearing jeans and baseball cap.

They all looked at the clock,

I go my way night and day.

Sometimes I doubt and want to shout,

Can’t sleep at night and….

Not so sure if I was right.

But I go my way night and day

With the alarms and worries,

With the flurries and hurries,

More often with beautiful sunny days,

Sometimes with colds and rains.

But in the distance I see the dawn,

It illuminates my life and my dreams...

Life is the sun in the day time.

Life is the beautiful chime.

Life is the moon and the stars at night.

Life is the birds flight.

Life is the mountains you climb.

Life is to share the last dime.

Life is a tale, a big surprise.

All around look so nice!

But if you see life in different way

With only dirt and violence

And don’t hear the silence,

Lif...

When I hear someone say:

Oh! You look so nice today!

I answer without any delay:

I would look much better

If I wore another sweater.

Or something like that:

Oh, dear! Don’t tell me lies!

Look at my eyes!

I would look much better

If I was not ill.

But…still…

Let’s have a bet!

Let’s make some offset!

When I feel better

And really look ...

I love you

like a sea loves the sunrise.

I love you

like the planes love the sky.

I love you

with all my soul strings.

And…if I had wings

I would fly over the mountains,

over the seas and oceans

with my sincere devotion,

for only one reason,

at any season,

to tell you

how much I love you.

We go to bed with a dream,

We get up with a dream.

All our life we strive for a dream.

All our life we dream.

It’s beautiful to live with a dream,

Though sometimes we suffer.

There are moments we scream

And life seems to be a tougher.

We all dream to achieve a goal.

Our dream is an elixir of longevity.

It’s an elixir for our undying soul...

I congratulate all those

who are young at heart!

I congratulate you

with the day of highest feeling!

It burns in you and me

up to the madness,

up to the peeling.

I congratulate you all

with the love which is free!

I urge you to worship love!

I beg you not to be afraid of love.

Love as Saint Valentine!

Time flies so fast!

It’s a pity

you are leaving

at last!

If you don’t believe in love at first sight

look at me once more from another side,

I hope you’ll see something to adore.

I am thinking to give up drinking.

But how can I do that?

I am in the greatest fear

I love you, I love you not

You laughed at me and I forgot

Forgot the day we’ve met

There’s nothing I would regret

So many hearts were broken by you

But you don’t care and hell with you

It seems to me you never loved

And nothing could excite your blood

How much I want to say I hate you

How much I want to be with you

You are just heartless...

I love you, I love you not

There were only lies and a lot

Yes, I splash out emotions

And look like an angry ocean

I feel like to cry

And don’t really know why

He still remains in my mind

A reason to forget him I try to find

I see now that I was just blind

I want to leave everything behind

I ask my mind to forget

I beg my heart do not...

Oh, my guitar!

You are in a case.

It seems so far

You were not embraced.

Your strings are weak,

Your heart is sick.

But a hope remains,

You’ll overcome the pains.

A master will come,

You won’t strum.

You won’t complain

But will sound again.

The day of grief and sorrow was yesterday.

Another friend of ours had passed away.

It’s impossible to express in words how our hearts pain,

But we all swear, the memory about him will remain.

He was reliable and life he loved so passionately,

Up to the end he was faithful and friendly.

He was his family support and our coach

Without fear, without reproach.

Rose lies on the piano keys.

It still hears the sounds of music.

Hopelessly dump it lies,

Echoes of love songs arise.

Glowing petals fade by the past shade,

With the yesterday’s love groan.

Black and white keys played

To the only one and his own.

Memories of the fingers remained.

They were beautiful love skill,

 A shrill cries of love an...

If you have nothing to say keep quiet,

If you have nothing to show you are retired.

Everyone could be much wiser

If that one would find a sympathizer.

Any plan without intent –

The essence of a content.

Who told you that love does not exist?

Who told you that our souls turned into ice?

Who told you that our hearts desist

And love has a certain price?

Your words about love turn into autumn leaves:

Yellow, brown, red, some turned into black.

Your words would like to receive a flack.

But…alack…they are just an attack.

You could call me and if I be...

I am not a business woman,

I am just like Bess Truman.

I prefer a family life

And to be a good wife.

I am not the first lady as she was

But agree with her words and applaud:

Sense of humor and good health

Will lead you to respect and wealth.

On the right foot

I’ll put on a boot.

On the left foot

I’ll put on a shoe.

The best way of trust

100% of payment in advance.

The picture was really unique.

When I looked at it I felt sick.

                ***

A woman does it sitting,

A man does it standing,

A dog does it raising its paw.

That’s how they meet,

That’s how they greet,

That’s how they say “Hello!”

And what did you think?

With diamond blotches!

They are like Swiss made.

Ok! Here are dollars hand made.

I imagined a prince from tales.

But …when we met

Without any regret

I told him frankly

When he looked at me blankly:

Farewell, my dream!

We can’t be in one team.

Once upon a time

In the waters of Jordan

Jesus Christ was christened.

Since then to that sacred place

The peoples come of different race.

The Epiphany water its memory’s remained,

The memory of One who gave us love with flame.

And today when the New year has passed

Jesus Christ Epiphany is coming

And winter looks so charming.

To have a good rest.

An ass - an adventure.

How unfair is human’s nature!

A man is a lucky creature!

He can see a woman’s breast at once

And tries to get his chance.

But what a woman should do?

Sometimes she realize that….

She’s got a surprise

When she see the gun’s size.
