when I ask myself
what I am
I am not sure I know the answer

a ‚mature‘ man
of 70 plus

grandpa
of 11 grandchildren

yesterday‘s
person of authority

mentor for young ones
still looking for themselves

all of the above
or none of it

in the end only those
who read these lines
decide
Peace Jun 2018
I cannot hide in my fortress,
this cloak has fallen,
and in it's place,
stands my barren feelings,
here in this puddle,
is the lost of my innocence..

Once I asked
Random people
Show me your happiness

Child, showed me their SMILE
Adult, showed me their GADGETS
Mature, showed me their BANK BALANCE
Grand age, showed me their CHILDREN
Sage showed me brightness in his EYES

Happiness is dynamic
Age
Time
Understanding  based

With maturity
It changes
Temporary to Permanent
Objects to Values
Dream to Faith.
Genre:eXperimental
Theme:Happiness In Motion

Peter Pan


We are not all Peter Pan;
We must grow up one day.
We must do all we can, while we can,
Before it all goes away.


TV has more than the Disney channel;
There is so much out there to find.
One day you will not be able to afford Chanel,
So be rich and poor at the same time;
Make the most of your life.


Our guardians protect us and raise us.
Hold their words close to your chest,
But one day you must leave the nest
And walk alone; relax and take a deep breath.
In fact you must go, because it is good for the soul.
You must learn to fly high into the sky,
Before they plant you in the ground.
Technology does not save us all,
So cry aloud your nature call.
