To Shatter the darkness……..
IN MEMORIAM..for my dearly loved brother Donald...."But, if the while I think on thee,
dear friend,
All losses are restor'd and sorrows end". Shakespeare Sonnet XXX.
GOODBYE DONALD - A tribute to the memory of my brother Donald, on this day,
International Mens' Day, I raise this image in honour....and to honour the loss when truth is discovered gone. I turn again to you, my brother, for solace,and again, "look on thee dear friend"........but, and, not in sorrow, dear Donald. You were a wonderful brother. au revoir.
Thank you so much, Sir Josef Putsche::
"Light the flame, keep the darkness at bay. Beware the night, take heed of those afraid of light. Worse than monsters under the bed, worse than monsters hiding in the closet. Behind you, they silently creep, waiting for you to sleep. Power hungry, they feed off fear. Pain is what they intend to induce, whenever they are set loose. Bars can't stop them, chains won't hold them. They prey on those who still have innocence, making use of their ignorance. Victims are left bleeding and broken, never to be the same again. Every breath tears you apart, every touch steals more of your soul. They'll stalk you throughout the day, until the night says its time to play. these cold-hearted monsters of the shadows, walk among us, looking as normal as you and me. Mme viv ...So great deep."..LF ...Josef.
Josef, wherever you are now!, here I reply, to deny your monsters!!!!!;;;;;;;
Dedicated.
LIGHT A CANDLE
By Paul Alexander

And I will light a candle for you
to shatter all the darkness and bless the times we knew
Like a beacon in the night
The flame will burn bright and guide us on our way
Oh, today I light a candle for you
The seasons come and go, and I'm weary from the change
I keep moving on, you know it's not the same
And when I'm walking all alone
Do you hear me call your name?
Do you hear me sing the songs we used to sing?
You filled my life with wonder, touched me with surprise
Always saw that something special deep within our eyes
And through the good times and the bad
We carried on with pride
I hold on to the love and life we knew
And I will light a candle for you
To shatter the darkness and bless the times we knew
Like a beacon in the night
The flame will burn bright and guide us on our way
Oh, today I will light a candle for you."
With humble ,loving thanks, also, to my friend: Maria Disley, for this her poetic

"Goodbye Donald!
It sucks my brush in
With such verocity!
I hold and I grip hard the silent language loosening into the sable hairs
Tremulously trickling down the brush shaft and sliding, sidling with its oily sidekick
Medium.
I’m choked as the discipline provokes the recipient, soul. I scream in Viridian!
As its cyclonic pull drags at my sleeve, Death’s voracious eye stares back at me,
The pupil of peace un-stills me on this side.
‘Goodbye Donald’ a voice inside me wails
AS my wanton brush instills in me the need to stay and paint."
Maria Disley 12/1/2012
Shakespeare:::"This alone I know to be true,,
To thine own self be true.....
And as night follows the day....
Thou canst not then be false to any man"
Sonnet XXX - Shakespeare.....
This is one of the most pensive and gentle of the sonnets.
