Songs and Verses




The air is full of the music of your voice,
my soul and body seem no longer mine,
but mingled in some exquisite ecstasy with yours.
I feel incomplete without you.


Listen to me
funeral bed,
parched grass,
dying love.
To a new beginning
Listen to me.

If you were in my eyes for one day
You could see the full beauty of the joy
I find in your eyes
And it isn't magic or loyalty

If you were in my heart for a day
You would have an idea
Of what I feel
When you hold me strongly to you
Heart to heart,
Breathing together

Protagonist of your love
I don't know if it's magic or loyalty

If you were in my soul for a day
You would know what is inside me
That I fell in love
At that instant, together with you
And what I sense
It's only love.

Two people
met
and they
held each other's gaze
kissed sensuously
locked in warm embrace
moved in unison
burnt with passion.

Perfect,
it seemed to be.

Two hearts
will never meet-
a heart that loves
and
a heart that refuses to love...





Echoes, the wind gusts echo
Your name
in the dark chambers, trying to revive the beat

The fire
once upon a time it serve to
Ignite the power within

Your name
No longer reverberates

My heart no longer beats; it is cold and it is dead.


A broken heart
Drifting in the waters
Shivering from the cold,
-battered and old.

A silent lament
Echoed from within
Swirling in the
Cool winter air.

Blizzards, icicles and fog
Blinded the cold hungry heart.

A flicker of light
Glows in the dark
An omen for the one I love.

They say--
We can command our actions
But
We cannot command our hearts.

Another One Bites the Dust

The Stardust Resort and Casino, that historic 63 acres of fun on the famous Las Vegas Strip widely known for its big, big excesses in everything during its heyday was finally erased from the map at 2:33 A.M. on March 13, 2007. And She did it with a bang and in typical Las Vegas fashion complete with fireworks and an implosion that was watched by thousands of spectators who in the end have to scamper for their precious lives when the dusts and smoke of the Old Lady came running after them. LOL Another landmark in the ever- changing, neon- lit, money- powered gambling and entertainment capital of the world gone-- A victim of the dreaded Vegas curse: where fortunes could change hands overnight; where lives could be made or broken by the roll of the dice; where the only thing constant is --Change. But I am not a gambler so what do I care? Shhh, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas... From Dust to Dust goes the legendary Las Vegas Casino STARDUST and its 48 years of memories ...

Cool As Ice

I watched the other day on ESPN the finals of the 2007 International Skating Union Ladies Figure Skating World Championships held in Tokyo, Japan from March 19- 25 and narrowly won by hometown gal Miki Ando over her more popular teammate and crowd- favorite Mao Asada by the narrowest margin of 195.09 to 194.45 . I always love watching those pretty ballerinas on ice since way, way back. I love their elegant movements and their grace under pressure. I guess I like watching all kinds of sports from mixed martial arts to basketball to car racing and of course, figure skating. The competition for this year’s edition is not that deep name- wise. Gone were the likes of Shizuka Arakawa, Michelle Kwan, Irina Slutskaya and Sasha Cohen who never fails to electrify the skating world with their showmanship and grace on the ice rink. But their absences were made up by the presence of the young and talented skaters eager to prove their mettle as worthy successors to the Rink Goddesses that once...
