My Friends around the world
My friends in New Orleans, Kenya, London and Barbados. Sometimes life is so hectic that we cannot find the time to chat. I am happy I met you all. Remember you are my friends. Your blogs are an inspiration.
Mountains!
I live in the the mountainous region of Jamaica. It is usually very cool, when the city is warm. You can smell the change when you begin the ascend. We go up up up and then the descend. At the top you have the most spectacular view you can imagine. Jamaica is such a beautiful island!
Today!
Today is a lovely day. Laid-back for the for the most part. Christmas is in the air. I think I need to begin decorating my Christmas Tree!

Live On!
Every twist and turn in the day,
Your name rings out in our ear
Each time memories of you flashes in our minds,
A familiar voice of each of your many colleagues and associates,
whom we know so well, rings in our ear, as they say your name.
Each one has a special and unique tone to your name.
As each voice say your name.
Whether, it's DP, DP Clive, Clive and most recently LG.
There are even some of us who adds "Clive" to the LG
And nothing's wrong with that, as you would rightly say. "You are correct"
Who will correct us when we slip up.
Who will say, refer to "Robert's Book of Rules"
Who will say "Protocol States".
Protocol beget's You and You beget's Protocol.
There are times you ruffled a few feathers.
And God knows we may be mad, but deep down,
We know, of course! Clive is correct... No! DP Clive is correct (smile)
Oh, here he comes now,
Bouncing with laughter in his strides,
His eyes a twinkle too!
Deep within his eyes you see straight through to his heart.
A heart that want to give, and serve everyone whom he meets.
He has a gracious comment for everyone, especially the ladies!
He makes you smile when you are sad.
And yes! Oh yes! he makes you sad, when you are happy,
Even mad! But just for a time!
Remember, please remember,
He only wants You to know what's right, best and proper.
Sure you taught us well, and what we have learnt will be long remembered,
embedded in our hearts, just as the memory of you lives on for ever!
We ask Why? How? Who? Who are we to question the Lord
He giveth life and he taketh!
He sent you here for a short time and short time it was indeed, but
let us look at your achievements and what through you others have achieved
and say well done,
Your work on earth is done!
Live on in our lives, brother, mentor, friend, teacher!
Live on!

I turn to the Hills
Tonight again I turn to the mountains
I close my eyes, and begun my journey,
Beyond those mountains, I am with him
I wrap my body with his soul tonight
I hear his breathing, I hear his snores!
I hover there watching him, sleeping, so peaceful
He stirs, but did not awaken
My finger traced those familiar outline
His nose, His eyes, His lips
I kissed his forehead and whisper softly,
I love you!
He opens his eyes, now drugged from sleep
He blinked and looked around, he smiled
He felt my presence
I gently turned away from his side of the mountain
leaving him to go back to sleep
I am back on my side of the mountain
Sleep has come and I am contented!
I close my eyes, and begun my journey,
Beyond those mountains, I am with him
I wrap my body with his soul tonight
I hear his breathing, I hear his snores!
I hover there watching him, sleeping, so peaceful
He stirs, but did not awaken
My finger traced those familiar outline
His nose, His eyes, His lips
I kissed his forehead and whisper softly,
I love you!
He opens his eyes, now drugged from sleep
He blinked and looked around, he smiled
He felt my presence
I gently turned away from his side of the mountain
leaving him to go back to sleep
I am back on my side of the mountain
Sleep has come and I am contented!
Longing
My soul cries out for you,
My body cries out, come take me!
I miss our nights of passion!
I cannot sleep alone again
Not tonight! No! please!
I have been waiting, waiting for you my love
When are you going to take me back
to your lair, back to where I belong
It has been so long,
But the memory lives on
Daily, nightly, hourly, weekly,
I still feel your touch lingering
Your fingers caressing my aroused body
I feel your breath against my neck,
my breast, my thighs!
You are here, I know,
You are here with me teasing my senses
Willing me to to yield
You know that it does not take
a lot for me to get there and
you know exactly where to touch,
Do not wait any longer my darling,
Take me now!
I have been waiting for too long
My body yearns for you
your touch, your kisses, your embrace
Damn you! I need you!
My body cries out, come take me!
I miss our nights of passion!
I cannot sleep alone again
Not tonight! No! please!
I have been waiting, waiting for you my love
When are you going to take me back
to your lair, back to where I belong
It has been so long,
But the memory lives on
Daily, nightly, hourly, weekly,
I still feel your touch lingering
Your fingers caressing my aroused body
I feel your breath against my neck,
my breast, my thighs!
You are here, I know,
You are here with me teasing my senses
Willing me to to yield
You know that it does not take
a lot for me to get there and
you know exactly where to touch,
Do not wait any longer my darling,

I have been waiting for too long
My body yearns for you
your touch, your kisses, your embrace
Damn you! I need you!

Love Partings
My words can be calm, my mood warm.
We stepped into each other's world, and
I took the one step forward to move closer to you,
But you walked away.
Please, Oh Please do not step away again,
On my visit that night you silently asked,
what am I here for?
To see you I said, you respond,
I am asleep, it is not safe, do not stay at the gate,
Someone was hurt recently down the road.
All those nights, when I crept in your bed,
And made passionate love to you,
Bodies sweating with our salty perspiration,
You loved that! and I loved it!
Woke at midnight or a lot later to drive home, alone,
I hated that! and at times, I felt resentment.
Having to leave the warmth of your bed,
Leave you and go home to be alone!
Alone in my bed!
No arms to hold me!
No tender lips to kiss me!
No warm body to cuddle against!
No breast to lay my head!
I left your gate, your bed, your kitchen, your house,
Feeling alone, having to drive the lonely road by myself.
And never complained,
I loved you so much, do not mind, and will not object,
Did not fear for theft, rape of assualt.
How I loved you.
Looking back on all the pleasures we have shared,
Do not leave again! Just when I need you most!
I remember the times you left before,
It is just when I needed you most.
When I need an arm to hold me,
Gentle lips to kiss me,
Loving shoulders to lean on!
Yet you leave!
You stopped!
Full stop!
Why!
Oh Why!
Please tell me!

Moments of Reflection
Many days since the past two months, I have reflected on him, we had what can be considered the envy of any relationship. We eat together, walked together, slept together. I often wondered if he was my soul mate, and funny enough, I concluded from all my thoughts that he was.
I have loved him, since I met him many years ago. We have loved, left, hitched and God knows what. But we always come back to each others arms for comfort. Yes, it seems that there in his arms is the only place for my true comfort. No dinner tonight darling? The evenings while driving home from the gym, I would call and enquired. He answered, yes, come on over, I have some leftovers from Sunday; and I would gladly stop by, as I know that there was more than Sunday leftovers to be had. We both shared a passion for the same things. Our lives crossed for a reason!

Evening Sky
A dash of red! gold! grey! purple!
and even a touch of blue!
Hovers above the magnificent harbour
Speckled below is the light of Historic Port Royal
in the distance.
One lone antennae from Claro,
a mobile company, projects upward to the sky
The city of Kingston, lay still beneath the coloured heavens,
as I watched from my four storey office building
in the now quiet business hub of New Kingston.
The colours keep changing, turning to a dusty grey on
the Eastern side and marshmallowing to fiery red over
the mountains forming the backdrop of the New City, Portmore
Then comes the night, slowly, stealing the dancing colours,
changing the panorama into a thick blackness!
A colour that spells, it is now time to go home!
One more glance!
The colours are gone!
Replaced with glistening stars!
The day is done!
and even a touch of blue!

The Conversation!
I love music and what it evokes
The feeling it create and inspires
The stories in the songs
Which inspires the music
The expressions and emotions from the singers
The passion!
The Gypsy!
The Lover!
The Sexiness!
The Poet, maybe!
Ha! Yes!
What do you get from me?
You?
Let me think....
You inspire me to think
Describe me! My passion!
My Drive! My Desires!
And he writes.....

She Wakes Up
She heard the ping from the phone and
knew that a message has just come in
Searching for the phone,
she finds it on the bedside table
Among the books and papers there
With sleep in her eyes and a light headache
She finds the new message
Yes! it was him!
She responded,Hi!
I am asleep, I am going downstairs,
Be right back!
She left the bedroom and did not get far!
That Ping again, I am going downstairs,
She responded! Ok he said! she put the phone down
and there comes another ping, she responded again,
I am going downstairs, the stairs is long you know!
She finally went downstairs,
Heels paining from the long standing she did today,
Working, walking and standing
Without sitting all day,
Cooking and washing, too!
She saw her husband, writing on his laptop
He laughed at her laborious walking and kept
writing at his computer.
She picked up the tablet and,
hobbled back up the stairs
With the pill taken, she went back into the bed
covered up,
With the Iphone in hand, ready for the night chat!

Dry Days!
If ever she breaks this mole
The Pleasures will come flowing
Like there is no tomorrow
And the dry days will be distant memories
She feel this awesome energy down there
Preparing itself to make a grand entrance
For now she squeeze it in
Oh! she know that the pause is just a phase
And that too will be broken

The Bone Chilling News
The news in so cold
It is disturbing
It send shivers down my spine
Reporters giving their various reports
Pictures so graphic
Stories so compelling
Children crying
Mothers crying
Screaming people
Bleeding wounds
Chard bodies
Overturned cars
Burnt out buildings
When will this end
What will the outcome be
LTH
It is a Beautiful World!
As far as the eyes can see, there is beauty everywhere
Please do not spoil the beauty that you see.
It is there for tomorrow's children and their children's children.
Take a look, take a smell!
Breathe, Breathe, Breathe!
Imagine the aroma of the rain washed earth,
and remember the smell,
Breathe, Breathe, Breathe
Let us not destroy it with hate, crime, greed and drugs....

The Lake
.jpg)
I visited the lake one cold fall morning
Saw its stillness lay, stretching far beyond.
The brightly coloured trees signals fall with
all its glow
I stepped out of the car and wandered near
Wanting to touch the leaves
and feel the icy cold water between my toes
But there in front of me,
Was the sign "No Trespassing"
I fell back, frightened,
What if I had stepped onto the property
What if I had gone to touch the leaves
What if I had dipped my toes, just a tiny dip!
Thank God I never did, I would not
want to know what the outcome would be!
LTH
The Flat Bridge
Why the name "The Flat Bridge"
Have you ever wondered,
Couldn't it be called some other name
Spanish Bridge, Rio Cobre Bridge, Snake Bridge
But it had to be called Flat Bridge
No side rails
Lying so calm, without emotions
Only that which is evoked inside you
When you cross that "Flat Bridge"
Take care "Flat Bridge"
Care of the Travellers.....
LTH
The Calm Before The Storm
What will the Storm be
They have been patrolling the city streets
Seeking to find the notorious one
Moving in slowly for the "Storm"
His deeds are many and varied,
Good some say, bad most say
Others have no opinion
What do I say
It is the Calm before the storm
Let us wait and see

The Path
You see this trodden path, amidst the forest green. Life has so many trodden paths, some trampled and worn,We sometimes feel trodden, trampled and worn,
Just like the path ahead,
We feel that there is nothing left to salvage,
And sometimes feel sad and lonely
No! dig deep my friend
You have it, down where you might least expect to find
Yes, the strength to carry on
Let us look at this path,
What do we see?
I'll tell you some of what I see
Experience, memories, .......
It is life's experiences and memories
In which we will find the strength to cope and carry on

Going to the Gym!
I am about to get dressed for my workout. When I return I will describe the event.
The Beginning!
A day of expirmenting and working on reports. It is the end of the work day and just waiting for the time to change for the gym. Must work out today, so that I can get that summer body. But guess what, I needed to get this up and running for a long time now and I finally did it.
It is completed and it was almost time to go home! I have created my own space.
A place where I can express my thoughts in words, pictures, etc.,
My friends can join me, encourage me and we can all create our timelines.
This is the beginning of a great adventure!
Don't you think!
