Secrets (Haiku)

"If you reveal your secrets to the wind you should not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees. "  ~ Kahlil Gibran         

pensive mood sets in

as life's tapestry unfolds

sssshhhh... don't tell a soul

with a heavy heart

secrets of the past are best

laid to rest... move on...

the dazed mind ponders

some things better left unsaid...

no room for regrets

think of it this way

what difference would it make?

 past can't be undone!

Of Fun and Friendship (Thursday Poets' Rally Week 27)

bound by friendship

ties that are deep

two decades of sisterhood

an unbreakable loop

"raise the roof!"
that was the mood

a night of 80's fun

and disco jam...

of strobe lights

and tights...
of red stilettos

and loud echoes...

never ending banters

in a room full of prancers...

 

one night of break

for sanity's sake!

It was Kadayawan Festival in Davao City last week. Fat Bobby's hosted another 80's party called Retro Friday (August 20) and even though I had an on-and-off fever, I couldn't pass up the once-in-a-blue-moon bonding time with my equally busy BFFs and TFFs. And so, FUN FUN FUN we had that Friday night! Disco balls, laser lights and wet (as in sweat) look... it was soooooooooo 80's once again!!!

A BIG thanks to Jingle and the other poets who voted for me. I really appreciate this beautiful Celebrate Poet of July Award. Thank you so much!

Future ~ Haiku

take a step forward

no room for fears or regrets

just keep on moving

don't ever look back

there's so much ahead of you

don't even slow down

who knows what awaits

a brave soul who moves forward

everything seems bright

you will never know

what the future holds for you

if fear takes the reins

A Child's Walk

tippety top tippety toe
raggedy doll in tow

i walk to and fro
then oh so slow
i go

out into the fold

where the wind gently blows
