A Dream? ..
Ten thousand times a day
To be gently touched
Lost smiles of mine
Searched, found and made
To bloom again
Ten thousand times a day
With sweetest kisses to be marked
Ten thousand times a day
By one of sweetest soul
Of earth, that's you
My treasured husband..
Then sit back
And have a rest
No need for measure
Give back to you no less
Then ten thousand times a day
Sit back and smile
Having my sweetest treat:
My love my heart my soul
All yours..

Energy ~ What If?
Why?
Why do we need the electric energy?
Why are we dependent on batteries?
Why do we need games to socialize
the computers the tv screen
Humans are to become
Robotized! ?
We are waking up each day
to do mostly the same
From time to time by luck
we may squeeze a free moment
hints to remind us that this world
is not about wasting self...
Why do we act as electricity
is the only form of energy?
Why?
What if
the only thing we really need
could be the connection
of own minds bodies and souls?

Valentine In Japan
Had you known
that in Japan
On Valentine,
the men have have
a present as
sweet chocolate! (*_*)
given by the women
to friends or coworkers,
under this name:
'giri' chocolate.
If given to the only chosen
one to express own love
'honmei' is called.
In March 14 then,
time for women
to get presents,
red carnations
are in fashion
but case by case
could have

Love Attracts Love
Once upon a time
own love, tried
to hold back..
thought
that people giving
their hearts
end up being hurt
but soon found out
hurt also is part of life
as much as love.
Could you believe
hurt love can really heal
The more love
a heart beats
the more bearable
shall come to be
own selfish bits.
Because love
opens the curtains
to others pain

Kamakura's treasured tree
Yesterday
one tree collapsed
eight hundred years old
and thirty meters high
it's true, he was!
May you rest in peace
beautiful Kamakura tree
He did give joy
to countless
insects, birds,
and people.
My heart does cry
in pain, is trying hard
to stop.
I'm holding back
my fears
for younger trees
which have no chance
to kiss the light
for even one

Can't die
How can I, how can I die?
Can't take own life
So please send me the man with knife
Instead of one with hug and smile.
He is to cook for me last dinner,
A full course!
Instead of fish and bread
to slice my throat.
As syrup for the berries
what used to be my blood
And last, on top of cake no cherries
But, my gently scribbled heart:
'I loved this world
But world, loved me not'
One candle to be set alight
the man to sing a song

Seeds Of Love (English / Romanian / Japanese)
Powder of my bones
Essence of my soul
Grains of a black soil
Soaked in flavored oil
Sour bitter sweet:
-Guess under whose feet?
(..Might find out
..when my seeds
I'll no more miss..)
Pudra oaselor mele
A sufletului meu esenta
Boabe de pamant
negru imbibat
ulei inmieresmat
Dulce acru-amar
Oare sub al cui picior,
Ghiceste?

Never too old
Today, a 90 years old
obachan took a walk.
Her hearing and her sight
Too rich were not.
Hi hi ha ha she walked
to herself
she laughed and talked
But.. oh! my god!
If come or go,
one moment she forgot.
She kindly asks a passer by:
Pleaase, I don't know
where I am or where I go
All I remember's why:
So tired I got
of my room walls
Where food does
not taste any good
With familly always too busy
Or in bad mood

A Plea To The All Occupy Protesters Of The World
Changes shall be made with heart's songs of love and care don't let violence be attached to Occupy Protesters. If violence win, the peace is lost. All hearts '99' are with you, please keep it up!
There is a roof over their heads
Because her dear man works
They're having roof sold by the bank
The husband works as ever, very hard.
She cannot help but sit and wait
She's also lost her job
What can she do, to what gods a prayer shall say
For their house not to become ashtray.
How can she ask to her own child?
'-Study hard please, study hard
You'll have a happy better life! '
child says-'please: can see the dear dad, don't lie! '

Lacramioara-Lily of the valley-Suzuran
Lacramioara..
this flower's name
in my native tongue
comes from lacrima
It means..
a tear drop!
please, listen
to my say:
When you are sad,
watch this soul's clad
maybe this flower's Fairy
your tears
would transform in merry
Ring this flower's bell
and take deep breathe
of its smell
.. Relax, harder don't try
Just..for one moment
stop your cry
..start make own wish
