Today we honor those
who have gone out of their way
to defend our rights and liberty,
that we might live today
with Freedom ringing
across the skies.
Sweet Freedom’s song
they let none despise,
for they are her shield
against the cruel;
without their might,
Terror would rule.

Hello friends!
I just wanted to take a moment to type up a few words about a very dear friend of mine. She is a blogger, like all of you – and I daresay she’s one of the finest – but life knocked her down and kicked her hard, thus she has been absent from the blogosphere for the last few months.
I say “has been,” though, because she is now back.

How could you just
throw me aside like trash,
filthy garbage,
stale leftovers?

Why won’t you let me in?
Why are you shouldering
this life all alone?
Do you not see
that I love you?
Do you not see
that I want to be
there for you?

What if I told you
that your dimpled smile
is the prettiest that
I’ve ever seen?
That it glows like the sun,
a brilliant grin,
and melts my buttery heart?

There was a time once
where you and I
stood together,
never separating,
not even for a moment;
we held fast to each other
in the face of all trials,
our fingers curled together,
folded into
one hand
forever.

“What do you
think of
beauty?”
“What?”
“Well,
what do you
think it is?”

Starting with the film debut of Iron Man in 2008, Marvel fans have watched their beloved Avengers come to life one-by-one in cinemas across the globe. And while some did not fare as well as others, all were accepted with the promise that fans would get to see these heroes unite on one screen for an unprecedented superhero mash-up.
That movie is The Avengers.
And it is insane.

Drowning, my heart is
flooded with tears
as memories come of
all those great years
we spent with each other,
together, a team
that could conquer it all –
but not all, it seems.
