A Dream Beyond

It was almost close to midnight

 


Chirpping crickets sounds I heard,

 


During the darkest night ever.

 


Mixed emotions of excitement,

 


Because my baby is coming.

 


I awaken by mesirable moaning

 


of my dearly beloved agonizing,

 


To the doctor rushed her  for treatment

 


Oh! God. . .  You've taken her from me -

 


Seems the whole world had fallen upon me.

 


I can't believe that you are dead

 


I hold you so tight but tender -

 


pressed your cold hands and kissed you then

 


but  . . no! your pronounced dead,

 


my dearly beloved.

 


Lord - if, it's then my fate -

 


Teach me to stand as a real man.

 


Bear this mesirable remembering,

 


Recalling that I and my beloved had cared so much.

 


The mistaken belief of never ending happiness.

 


Never come to mind that everything has its ending.

 


And all are Yours my God . . . .

 


The only thing I'll pray for you  - - -

 


God - - please takecare of my dearest beloved.

 


The most difficult day has come.

 


Besides the casket I was so confused

 


With tears stopless fallen.

 


Emptiness  and a chocking loneliness.

 


I felt because you left me dear.

 


If only I could join you there,

 


Sleeping on my arms together -

 


Bring back your life and my baby angel for me -

 


Perhaps God loved you and baby so much than I - -

 


So, He had taken you both far away from me.

 


Days go on so gloomy and hard to believe,

 


I have to send you both into your grave - - -

 


The hardest moment of depart,

 


I don't know if I have to live again - -

 


or take my life together with you.

 


Fresh flowers I bring,

 


You could not hear me crying . . . sobbing,

 


Longing for your presence and tender cares.

 


I can do nothing . . but face life's realities,

 


Without pretend . . . without complain . . .

 


Lord! intrusting to You my dearest ones.

 


Please bind our family again . . . .

 


In Your Heavenly Kingdom someday.

 


I submit with all humility - - -

 


For will - Oh! God be done.

 


Like Job - - whose faith and trust never wave.

At fisrt I was also excited to see the baby come out. The poem gets actually my sympathy. Being a new father to be is the most happiest moment I think. But I was sad opposite to the excitement that I felt. That the happiness turn into mourning. That excitement turn to a sorry. I can relate to what the poem is saying. Oh! how sad it is! It's actually tearing my heart. What a mesirable situaton. If I were the father, I think I will die. But I was pleased and encourage with the trust and faith he has. Yes! all of us has a limit. A time table has set to us before we concieved. At the end, the pain and loneliness I felt replaced by calm and smile in my face. Thanks to the unwaverng faith and trust in God that man has!

Summer weather ballyhoo rejoice heat wave, poem by Peter Menkin

By: Peter Menkin | 14/11/2009
Come festive days, wanted weather. Straw hats, suits, shorts, lace gown, khakis; costumed for roller skating go the mother-daughter duo, costumed things grown up growing. And there the grandmother sachet for granddaughter from the ice cream store where flavors abide (many).

THE LOST GENERATION

FIGHTERS AT LARGE
