ETERNAL LOVE

by Rado Gatchalian

Like tulips and bees

Sweetest are the kisses —
The Cosmos collides with the stars
Like friends and lovers
Of Time: of now and beyond.

Perhaps, when the trees and sky

Embrace as two beautiful creatures:
Even the wind and water

Become One — in love
—
and in life.

TRUE FRIENDS

True friends are with you thick and thin;
They cry through your bad times, and celebrate your wins.
You can always find them right there by your side;
Holding you up, rejoicing with pride.
This bond is forever, unbreakable and tough;
For this friendship can only be called one thing…love.

~Robert Clancy

THE GUARDIAN

THE GUARDIAN

When your legs become too weary to walk borrow my wings.

I’m there to carry your precious heart to a place of simply things.
I count your tears on the days when sorrow has filled your eyes.

Kindness is our everlasting bond; divine love holds all our ties.
Watching over you is my full-time job; I deliver all your prayers.

Lift your chin to the light of heaven; know I’ll forever care.

AT THE FEET of the MASTER

By Raed Braun

Beware of the man who claims “I know.”
Behold the one who cries “I am dumb.”

He who seeks answers shall dwell in the world of doubts.
He who knows too much shall empty his cup.

Emptiness: it’s the only path to be full.
Acceptance: it’s the ony key that opens a door.

Humility: it’s the only way to become truly strong.
Find your own master 

And you shall find yourself.
There are no feet but only footprints.

LITTLE PIECES of PEACE

(Dedicated to Tita Mely Tucker and Uncle Kevin)

by Rado Gatchalian

Looking back: one is to endure the pain and joy

Of memories — good, strong yet old.

Time: every second counts

And every step is a way to a place called Home.

Where shall we find this Solace?

This Peace and Happiness?

As we reach the Hands of the Great One

We feel the contentment of a Great Life — one to behold.

Slowly, walking the narrow Path

— a little stone is to be kept in the Heart:

Joyful, Blessed, Overflowing Love, and Faith.

How great is to love and be loved!

To cherish this one beautiful Life:

On a morning: sunbathing with Hope.

On an afternoon: a lunch with dear ones.

On an evening: at peace with God.
Everyday. Everynight.

- One is reborn like a beautiful child.

RIDDLES of the UNIVERSE

By Raed Braun

I may have walked a hundred miles
But would remain a traveler who seeks not the place
But the memories and time.
I could have written thousands of words and poems
But there are emotions that can never be expressed in words.
My loneliness keeps me on the ground
My imperfection reminds me to be strong.
Life is imperfect and full of surprises —

I shall remain a dreamer who seeks happiness.
What meaning shall I give to a miserable life?
What purpose can I find in a lonely existence?
The journey leads us to a place we might hate and love
But we can always keep a special stone from each episode:
It’s a lesson that will mold us to become a better person.
The riddles become a masterpiece —When we are lost, we are found
When we are falling,
we will rise up again.
