Deep in the heart of the African savannah, there lived a solitary aardvark named Adalberto. Adalberto spent most of his days digging through the soil for ants and termites to feast on. But as the sun began to set, he would return to his burrow, alone and lonely. One day, as Adalberto was wandering through the savannah, he stumbled upon a mysterious cave. The...

Another poem in my series of poems that celebrate visuals in the art nouveau style. The memories of old come rushing backLike the pages of a long-lost trackThe laughter, the joy, and the tearsThe moments that shaped our fears Nostalgia tugs at the heartstringsAs we recall the simple thingsThe places we’ve been, the people we’ve knownAnd the bonds that have grown The memories that...
The wind whispers through the treesAs the leaves rustle in the breezeThe birds take flight and soar highAgainst the canvas of the sky Nature’s beauty is all aroundIn the streams and the fertile groundFrom the mountains to the seaIts majesty is plain to see The sun’s rays warm the earthAnd give life to all since birthIn nature, there’s a world so vastIt’s a reminder...

So let us all embrace...

Her eyes were bright green, And her lips full and pink. She wore a white silk gown, And stood before the window, Her body curved...
