(1)Young Tom visited his great aunt, until he was ten years old,
And soon after his next birthday, her old mansion would be sold,
Since she died, and he would miss them both, as nine years changed the date.
He completed school, did two years work, and started college late.
(2)At the end of his first Uni year, he [...]

(From when optimism shined, and felt no need for second sight);
And contain it in the formula, that I’m preparing now,

Should I snatch a scrap of Paris, clasping firmly with my grip
(So the [...]

Present Day
It was the first Monday in weeks when I was not in office before ten. As I saw the frosted sundial of my old citizen ticking eleven thirty, I cursed myself for the umpteenth time for choosing that insurance company. I found out that the other companies did not require so many tests after [...]

SANTA’S HAT
By: Cynthia DiSciullo and William Zigmont
Sunshine leaned back into her comfy overstuffed chair,
Felt the amber glow and warmth of the fireplace there
The magic of a youthful mind is so very scrumptious and delicious
A charming place things are really-real even if they are fictitious
Rambleton Acres felt a jolt of winter’s mighty breath [...]

Lost At Sea,
Blinded by the storm.
Hear my plea.
My spirit is worn.
Ship is swaying.
I did not foresee.
Alone I’m praying,
In sandy debree.
Waves of pain,
flood into me.
Blood now stains,
what used to be.

The trembling eyelids, while the moans
Of sobbing grief, you rubbed into my chest,
As blossoms, of kisses, incessantly…

Your love was never blemished with lust;
It was a transcendental euphoria
In the inner temple of the soul;
