Flashes of memories - MUGABE MUST GO!!! ZIMBABWEANS NEED THEIR HOME BACK

 
There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness - Carl Jung To be at one with God is to be at peace ... peace is to be found only within, and unless one finds it there he will never find it at all. Peace lies not in the external world. It lies within one's own soul. - Ralph Waldo Trine

For you



I searched the moon
for your smile
but all I saw were
empty craters.
I ran to the beach
to hear your gentle words
but all I heard was
the ocean roaring
in my ears.
I smelled the delicate
flowers
but a bee buzzed from

its centre
and stung my
tear stained face

I looked for you

I searched for you

I reached for you

I...
...lost...
...you...

Ash,

I think this is the best one you have done.

The sepia tones silhouettes set the poem off beautifully,

Well done,
