    About this ebook

    Nature can be very giving and forgiving if love spins around and takes the heart to the levels of a more or less conscious feel of the energies around, reflecting itself into the minds and souls of believers. As love can be seen everywhere, in romantic moments sometimes happening in the middle of the streets or just as a manifestation of deep meanings shown by nature and the nature of things, so can passion be. The nature of the human heart and mind can be seen reflecting into "The Hour of the Blue Man", a collection of poems in which one can find a gathering of reflective thoughts and shows upon these subjects as I got to transpose and translate into words - and not only - in the past four years.

      Spirits grow high,

      His paintings catch the feelings

      Of the mighty believers

      Who died, for their lands.

      Heroes are meant to be used

      For a second rent

      .In peace.

      Rest

      They’ll find

      In the end.

      Black Thorn of mine!

      Where can I find

      The rest for your spirit,

      The growth of my humble existence,

      The growth of this self of mine,

      Requesting for learning and fun?

      Mirror-Man Mask

      Inside your thoughts 

      She found two rods 

      Of blooming love with ruby thorns

      born out of bloods’

      DiViSiOn.

      They’re spiralling out his twisted eyes

      While shadows keep their haunting down,

      Imprisoned. 

      Two candles light three windows up!

      The church behind is bleeding out

      The history of your Mighty God.

      Beg Light!

      Your thoughts, inside they matter,

      Your feelings will be higher,

      For her you matter.

      Out of three twisted visions

      Their eyes see clearer and clearer:

      As shadows of black and white,

      Imprisoned,

      Break free,

      Our spiralled thoughts light candles of hope

      In hearts ready to embrace you.

      Your thoughts inside-out worn,

      The church behind bleeding

      out

      the history of your Mighty God.

      Beg Light!

      Looking for Significance: Traces of Crayons and Paint on the Wall

      Voyaging scratches

      Get-up from your feet,

      You’re offering life with every move you make!

      You’re giving a lifestyle

      Imagined so far

      By an elated spirit and a powerful mind!

      There’s green and there are blues,

      The crayons tell the news of some crimson, reds,

      magenta-pink
