Poem May 22nd 2016: In Memory of Ross Cork by Blair Gaulton

This poem is in memory of a good friend of mine Ross Cork who passed away in Auroville, India on My 19th. I had the good fortune of being involved with him in the Munich Writers Group in Munich Germany. We spent many hours together in discussion debate and laughter.

In Memory of Ross Cork
Your wisdom words wit
and insightful observations.
Profound yet simple explanations;
would show us another way 
to see the world. 
You would inspire thought writing
and conversation.
They are treasures of you;
that live on in our memories.  
You are unforgettable
and will be sorely missed my friend.

Poem May 21st 2016: Be Like A Blade of Grass by Blair Gaulton

Be Like A Blade of Grass
Be supple;
like a blade of grass.
It finds a way to manoeuvre;
in spite of troubles.
Comes back;
after being bent frozen or cut down.
Be like a blade of grass!
You’ll discover a way;
to find solutions
‘n’ turn a frown into a smile;
as you go through
your kilometers ‘n’ miles
of living.

The Candle’s Reply
Like all things;
I live change and die.
Whether my life is short

Feel comfort ‘n’ come together.
This is something beautiful;
which I treasure as my time ends.

Poem Apr 28th 2016

Onward
May our hearts be filled;
with wonder love ‘n’ thrills.
May we dare to take steps
to realize our dreams ‘n’ be fulfilled.
May we go on;
never stop when things go wrong.
Be creative 
‘n’ find another way.
Take critics ‘n’ naysayers
with a grain of salt.
All they want to do is find fault;
‘n’ disrupt your focus ‘n’ thought.
Use them as motivation ‘n’ inspiration
to go on.
You will succeed
and have the pleasure
to hear them sing another song.
They will never admit about 
being wrong.
Suddenly they always believed
you would make it after all.
