May I ask, of you,
just for today,
to please,
let the pain go away.

The processing of grieving,
will always remain,
different, from each other,
it matters not the twain.

We all have our,
method of saying goodbye.
It's important we do,
as we always must try.

A snake, a serpent,
a dragon, for three,
sat in a circle,
trying to see.

What was the reason,
for our visibility,
which was one of fear,
when it should not be.

We are good creatures,
we know it is true,
but our images were destroyed.
How do we fix? What can we do?

Remove from the Fables,
which soils our name.
Give us some credit,
which we can retain.

Make stuffed animals,
which are scary, not.
Give it your all,
for it's all we've got.

Alas and alack,
the deal wasn't made,
so be careful outside,
don't lay in the shade.

Dance to the full moon,
letting everyone know,
a bright day is coming,
so, gather friends for the show.

Moonlight dancing, from
a long-ago life,
was filled with romance,
when courting a wife.

Where do you hide,
when there's no place to go.
Do you head to a restroom,
or other places, unknown?

A silly question,
which pops into my mind,
for I dislike being stalked,
when I'm not inclined.

Stalked as if smothered.
is a loving act,
when your presence is not
wanted, a fact.

Giving thanks is most important,
while traversing, this life we live.
We are not perfect, but if we practice,
we can be better. I hope you enjoy.

NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day:

If the Sun is up but the sky is dark and the horizon is bright all around, you might be standing in the Moon's shadow during a total eclipse of the Sun. In fact, the all-sky Moon shadow shown in this composited panoramic view was captured from a farm near Shirley, Arkansas, planet Earth. The exposures were made under clear skies during the April 8 total solar eclipse. For that location near the center line of the Moon's shadow track, totality lasted over 4 minutes. Along with the solar corona surrounding the silhouette of the Moon planets and stars were visible during the total eclipse phase. Easiest to see here are bright planets Venus and Jupiter, to the lower right and upper left of the eclipsed Sun.

French President Emmanuel Macron, in a speech delivered at the Sorbonne University in Paris, urged Europe to find its own path and warned "That the European Union needs to take bold action to tackle U.S. and Chinese protectionism, and be vigilant of the geopolitical threats from authoritarian regimes or face the death of Europe as a real possibility..."  More at Euronews ➜ 

My brain is fried,
to a medium well,
as I resume my journey,
to the denizen of Hell.

What do I do, my faith,
has been changed,
while my mind becomes,
slowly deranged?

Bats in the belfry,
a screw loose in my head,
makes me think,
there's no life ahead.

In my heart,
I know it's not true,
for in this life,
I no longer have you.

Loves in the air,
but it isn't for me.
For there is little desire,
not there to see.

I love people, in general,
I know this to be true,
but I don't see love present,
if I don't see you.

What in the world,
was I thinking of?
A new life, with another,
when there wasn't any love.

At least not on my part,
I retreated from there,
for It's not my job,
to go everywhere.
