Particular Moments

More Stars than There are

The Small Things

“Be faithful in the small things, because it is in them that your strength lies.”
–Saint Teresa.

What is Better?

“What is better, to be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?”
—Paarthurnax. 

Love at Midtown

I fell
In Love
With a fine,
Young Lady

From the Other
Side
Of town—

She North
And I South—

Two neighborhoods, separate lives,
And both having
Miraculously crossed,

Would never
Once
Be
The same.

Reminder

” …there was a language in the world that everyone understood…It was the language of enthusiasm, of things accomplished with love and purpose, and as part of a search for something believed in and desired.”

—Paulo Coelho.

Dear Valentine

Forget me not
For offering always

this Black, Tainted—
but Genuine—
and still Naive

Heart.
