Going Poetry

Event:
“Going Poetry” – What does it mean to search for feelings through modern means: what is lost, what can be found and what are we willing to preserve while app-ing old-fashion feelings.
Looking forward to your interaction!

?Love For Unicef?- 2014

In 2012, with our Love for Unicef initiative we saved 625 children from the deadly malaria and tetanus diseases.
In 2013 we purchased books for children in need of education and equipped two primary school classes with study materials.
This year, poetry aims once again to support the Child Survival and Development Program, organized by Unicef.de. Throughout the entire month of December, I will be donating all the proceeds from my books to help children around the world have a better life.
Share and download one of my poetry books below (?Yours, poetically?, ?In the Palms of Space and Time?, or ?Into Earth, Wind and Fire?) to help me through this campaign.
Let me know your e-mail address and your purchase number and you will receive a personalized Thank You card from me. Moreover, you will have a chance to win a special prize (Tombola in January 2015).
This year?s motto is: A poem for a smile. A smile for a life. Let?s help children, our future, smile. Thank you!

Like Rain

(POEM)
Outside the rain pours down with memories
within, where all the tears dried out;
his kiss shelters the best corner of her feelings,
where she keeps the flow of its imprint,
the essence running through her veins,
becoming one with the pulses of her breathing;
yet she remembers he was different
when her eyes first gazed at him
and he was playing the card of their chance to win
something they never defined
for silence spoke to them recurrently?
she, enthusiasm of heart,
he, the soother of the nights,
together, even when afar,
to prove in care what is closest to a smile,
losing track of moments
when they forgot to measure the size
of the room where habits and newness mixed up
and love took over the corner of confidence;
there she awaits him,
keeping his faith in her hand
like an unused perfume
she doesn?t want it to evaporate
but rather herald with it the theme of spring
in the landscape of their significance,
where hope is dancing on the ceiling
and art has put its sisters to work,
decorating the walls
with little things ? his favourites
and her deep gestures of beauty.
Her eyes frame the rain again
which shivers on the pane of purity,
abundantly bleeding with past before her senses,
which she won?t let infiltrate
within the tenderness she keeps for him,
close to the embers and a tea
she prepared late in the night,
for his return
so that it makes a dawn out of her life,
or simply win over the drops outside,
like a magician of her happiness
who draws a rainbow on the same spot,
where the rain had cried and longed each time
for him to come back.

Note Story

This is the story of a note from a boy to a girl, written a very long time ago, when love was courted with smiles, when experience was platonically attired and when sharings were limited to blushing, quotes and songs. The unsure handwriting confessed:
I would lie to you if I told you that my body loves you, but I dont lie to you when I tell you I love you in a special way that only those like me can understand. I hope you do too.
No one knows the ending of this story, but it was remembered that the girl did not understand the boys secret affection, almost slapped him in the moment when the kiss was meant to flourish (she had a thing about slapping boys in such particular moments) and that the boy was too mature about his immaturity, or too proud for loves modesty.
So she didn’t meet him when he came out of the military. Yet, years after, when she heard on the line of a phone I should have never let you go, she understood the meaning of that note.
And when they both realized the chance was passing them by, they decided to never say good bye. Maybe thats why no one knows how the story ends…because it doesn’t have one.
It will go on, if only to let us know that if love doesn’t give us anything at all, at least it stays, just to regenerate from dusk to dawn. Always.
A story about redemption and hope.

Chemistry

(POEM)
When our thoughts touch
we raise fire every time and universes stop, afraid not to burn out
then we give reason ground and indulge waters to settle down
until storms give in, once more, in the mix
with passion inside,
that always survives,
and next time around will conjure from the same unquenched source
the flicker of warmth, the sparkle of hope
the flame which bonds
anew our thoughts bespoke
from unbanned dreams to the flavor of wishes
like diaphanous magnets, depolarizing earths
with too much energy pouring from you into me
while skies and soils bow
before the justice
of the eyes and hearts refound
longing to intertwine,
bursting with laughter and tears –
feelings
boldly conspiring with destiny
to win against biases and fears
and reunite what was always meant
to be one.
And there, between volcanoes and floods,
amid fantasies and truth
from the prelude of us
I save embers and dew
and wait for you
to be mine.

?In my next life I want to live my life backwards. You start out dead and get that out of the way. Then you wake up in an old people’s home feeling better every day. You get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect your pension, and then when you start work, you get a gold watch and a party on your first day. You work for 40 years until you’re young enough to enjoy your retirement. You party, drink alcohol, and are generally promiscuous, then you are ready for high school. You then go to primary school, you become a kid, you play. You have no responsibilities, you become a baby until you are born. And then you spend your last 9 months floating in luxurious spa-like conditions with central heating and room service on tap, larger quarters every day and then Voila! You finish off as an orgasm!? (Woody Allen)

?As I began to love myself I recognized that my mind can disturb me and it can make me sick. But As I connected it to my heart, my mind became a valuable ally. Today I call this connection ?Wisdom of the heart?. We no longer need to fear arguments, confrontations or any kind of problems with ourselves or others. Even stars collide, and out of their crashing new worlds are born. Today I know that is ?LIFE?!? (Charlie Chaplin)
***
?I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.? (Pablo Neruda)

Awarded with ?Qindie? ? ?Quality book? created by an independent author (?Indie?), Germany, May 2014.

For the very first time, as an author,
I spent the past year concentrated only on my work and my direct public.
Throughout the year I contacted zero magazines, editors and complied to none of the strict given rules of the literary market.
I was simply ?raw? and ?unabridged? in all my artistic manifestations and my only judges were my readers, whom I trusted with my message.
When my work (Yours, poetically – A compilation of quotes and poems) was done and published, with my own means, uncensored style and free soul, I sent the final result to the whales of the sea, like a dolphin in good hope.
And I got back astonishing results, one of which is truly worth mentioning: the ?Qindie? label, which stands for ?Quality book? created by an independent author (?Indie?).
The Qindie judges are professionals in the industry and the selection criteria are focused on: content, style, overall organisation, layout, accessibility. ?Yours poetically? will bear the ?Qindie? seal from now on and I was granted the ?Qindie Author? title.
I am grateful to all of you who supported me and encouraged me with your ?Likes?, words, downloads, but most importantly with your trust in me and my art.
Thank you for feeling my poetry. You are my ?Quality?!

Sometimes

(POEM)
Sometimes I write to gently waft the air at the side
to come close-by
and whisper ?hi?
while your thoughts already enliven my mind
rising swirls of feelings
leaving my words at the brink
of poetry
intermingled with the prose
of reality
thickened by the fog
in your world
silencing your mouth and ears
before the speech of freedom
and the air of hope
you would hold
like a breath of love
should your pulse approach
to vie for my warmth
when I fall asleep
and you arouse on my lips
fantasies –
riveting thrills
that I take in bits of memories
from the heart
you relinquish to my sighs
like a wild horse prancing for spring
while I breathlessly run with scents
over void fields
to save our faith
and bring peace against the erratic scenery
that never counted with the dreams
we conceive our instants with
and grow them one by one
indomitably
until they become
?we?.
Sometimes I write a poem about you
just to say ?thank you?
sometimes I write
because I love you.
(Soar, 2014, ? www.soaring-words.com)
Feeling

(POEM)
I run through the woods to find part of my soul
Left with you a long time ago
You’re still at the brink of my wandering, waiting,
In your hand with my serenity
And my completeness on your lips
I fell in desire with;
I struggle through winds and leaves
Feeling for your clearance, my peace,
Further away, where I aim
Through earthy callings for my name
Duping my heart in games.
You smile and let lessons of life confront my light
Ready to hold me should I ever fall down
I cross diaphanous forms to see the prelude of suns –
Your eyes
Contouring what the world can?t define
Something that my poetry has pledged to glorify
Against blades hurting its drive
For it’s long and tiresome
To be one without you around
To move forth when everyone turns back
And to smile every time I cry
In the fight of the truth against disregards
But at the end of flows and frowns
Fate whispers to my life
That wars love noble outcomes
That pieces of soul need to reunite
Storms the quiet nights
And you to be mine.

Sonnet-like poem

I never liked rules and constraints in my poetry…I let it run free as it wants towards the corners of eyes and hearts it feels to indulge. This is my very first (and last) sonnet, where rhymes, theme, plot, shape and rhythm need to have a precise order and rule…
(POEM)
To redefine you in other lyrical forms
Cast in grey rituals of grand ancient plays
It?s like taking the gist of an outspoken soul
To lay bare the same footprints of your way
I know the paints by heart, yet drawing is too difficult
With you holding the blues of wavering hues,
Misting the dawn from its purport
While I use trust, patience and chocolate as muse
The scenery flows with six-dimensional feelings
Same care, rippling meanings of tomorrows
You watch confused the practice of my preaching
For it?s your well of ?free? and ?happy? that I colour
So that each morning of hope or stumbling night
You can redefine the truth of you and I.
