Alone on the steps...


lucastudio.photosight.ru

When history
decided to build
steps to the top
it hailed 
the heights
to which men
could rise
and rule.
To make
passage easy
they toiled hard
and left behind
only the hard
cold stone steps
with the passage 
of time.
I too am the passage
of time 
of eternity
of history
of humankind
and I stand witness
as the time
of passage draws 
near
inexorably
for every traveller.

smoothly...2


aquavita75.photosight.ru

The beauty of the dry thick bark
blends so smoothly
with the tender green
that sprouts with the rains
and freshness descends
lightly
from the skies
into my veins
and almost overflows
through the loins.
I am enthralled
by the stillness
and smoothness of it 
all
and want to hold
it in my being
for eternity
just like the skies.

Oh that sheerness..

Oh, that feeling of sheerness
the sheer cold and the smooth
yet pebbly rocks
the sheer transience of
the flow of water and
the feeling of being
there and yet not
there
the softness of light
and the eternity of
the elemental
existence,
oh, what a sheer pleasure
without any
dabble.

That moment....

***
s-makhno.photosight.ru

One moment you feel it
and the next....it's gone
How fickle is the mind
and wavering the gaze
and unsure is the organ
I wanted to catch you
and hold your hand
and whisper it
but you turned to go
and time slipped past
and words stumbled
I stood speechless
thinking of what you
would
and lost was that moment
to eternity.
It was there for me to take
and I was there for you to take
and that moment....

What's going to be future...

***



Eyes gaze out
to the skies
Mind wanders
in the emptiness
Feet find themselves
on
to the sands
of a vast expanse
and I hold
on to the rough
and solid of 
times immemorial

Waves

*** Algimantas Barzdzius

Waves break and form
incessantly
unwaveringly
and I watch
transfixed
on their play
all by myself
taking in
their eternity
