A TURN OF PHRASE

It's All from a... 'T' to 'U' Imagine you are asked to design a T-shirt with a meaningful,
humorous or even an insignificant message....Well, we did just that
with poets from our Facebook group and chose three
messages that stood out among the rest... "YOU ARE A PIANOFORTE" Loud sounds come from your mouth
when you want your opinions to be heard
or anger is let out after so long,
like an erupting volcano
But see how soft the sounds that your heart makes,
when it finally finds the inner peace it was seeking!
It makes you join the angels' choir to sing for joy,
or express your feelings of love through music.
You can be loud and soft depending on your reaction
to what life gives you along its way. © Gheorghe Laura
Romania "BITTERSWEET"

So bittersweet you are
giving me beautiful memories
but also hard times.
Still, I can not let you
because I became addicted.
You are like a medicine
that needs to be taken
so sour, but so good.

Romania "LIFE IS FULL OF BITTERSWEET MEMORIES - HUMOR THEM AND ENJOY LIFE..." The holiday outing ended with a bittersweet note due to unexpected rain. The cab driver had to return in the rain almost blindsighted. We were all in fear, expecting Dad's spitfire reprimand awaiting us for our misadventure. When the cab reached home, we stepped down and paused under the sunshade; Dad was playing a classical tune on the pianoforte. We were happy to know that Dad was in his rare, quieter disposition and there would be no shouting of 'begone'. We went inside and Dad was happy to see us safe and home. We dined together and regaled Dad about our adventure in the rain. © Kalucharan Sahu
