The Vision

Eyes shine like stars

the miracle of love

is dream from afar

look no more a long

time dance begins

- Rhoda Galgiani

A Heart's Uncertainty

When is it my time?

I have read words in

saddened poetry crying,

when will I find the love

that shall come to thee

willingly, longing to unite.

When is it my time?

To be held, to be comforted

when the daily toils overcome thee,

my time to feel a burning love again,

to join together our hands not for

stability, but for a bond.

When is it my time?

To gaze into eyes that show the

love without a single word spoken,

a look of love that succumbs us two,

the sensational sensuous feeling that

comes over their entire bodies that yearn.

And, when is it my time?

Not to worry for another moment,

of events that is a heavy burden to

thy mind of one that harbors the fear of

this journey in a devastating world that

threatens the existence of thy heart…

that is apart from thou arms.

Seeds of Life

A Hampter's Wheel of Life

 

 Life wheel turns every second

memories of dreams where destiny roams

a small time on earth our seeds grow -

spiritually

 

- Rhoda Galgiani

Winds of Time

 

Movement enthralls the

moon, stars and heavens

as the winds of time

converse daily with us all

 Calling to every living creature

giving instructions to their grace

with precision, with elegance

from their given birth in time

 
Flows of wind currents

capture curvatures of essence

swirling gently that creates

memories from a gentle breeze

 
Winds of time take one

on to greater stimulated glory

as the minutes, grow into hours

recording a lifetime of events -

as time captures us all

 

- Rhoda Galgiani



We'ze De X Smokers!

Ed - He'ze de bad boy!!!

 

Upon standing on our lawn

here at the senior complex

chatting just as we always do

the subject of smoking came up!

My neighbor Richie suggested

that I post something funny

about the subject- I said yeah,

but, that isn’t easy to do!

When I moved here I met Kathy

and I was smoking at the time

she said, I can’t be friends with you

Rhoda because you are a smoker!

I found out that she was upset with

her boyfriend Ed because of his smoking

- he would quit and then start up again

no matter how loud she yelled at him!

The complex sent out a letter that there

is no more smoking in the apts., but to

no avail the smokers are still clinging

to their butts thinking no one notices!

Well, it is what it is - my neighbor smokes

and my closet is so full of smoke and

tobacco stains that I have to spray the

closet daily to get rid of the smoke smell!

Let’s make this long story short, I am happy

I quit in 2001 - but took it up for a few months

when I moved here in 2003 - Kathy and I are

friends - me quitting (again) was a good thing!

A Gift

Time will band on morning star

hopes and dreams will linger

flames shooting by comets

lovingly - this moment a gift

- Rhoda Galgiani

Words Shared Takes Meaning

 

Life has a funny way of opening

her arms when you least expect it

As one walks on their daily path

they find the path has a new curve

The curve seems gentle and kind

as a social moment comes to view

It’s like a new adventure as one

explores the new connection

Friendship surface when least expected

this huge world now become small

Minds join and laughter becomes one

a comment or two becomes a memory

One who values a friend wears a warm heart

words shared between two - takes meaning

Over time, the friendship will grow making

the world a bit nicer than she already was

- Rhoda Galgiani

Change is Needed...

Woes and sorrows

has transformed you

to the person you are,

your future is whole

let it complete you - now!

 

- Rhoda Galgiani



Purity Inhaled

 

Take a breath

breathe air into the

dry lung that is alive

Consume wholeness

purity inhaled feels the

wellness coming to thrive

Look, see the beauty as

shadows dissipate the ugly rule

light shows one ways to arrive

Again, time conquers one’s woes

His hand covers thee gently

teaching one how to survive

- Rhoda Galgiani



Pretty Memories

Fading color no longer sheen

flowers strong once seen

in the garden old bloom

mirror shows grey gloom -

tears spill

 

- Rhoda Galgiani



Take Time

 

Sweetness fills the air as

vibes come along today,

Spoken love fills the heart

as those, linger to say -

I love you

Time does move swiftly by

one thinks about it not,

Busy going your way

words spoke just a thought -

I love you

Only takes a moment

express your heart of love,

Time may take you quickly

speak now words of the dove -

I love you

- Rhoda Galgiani



From Deep Within...

 

Long ago, wondering

what it was all about,

I found what I was

searching for,

slowly it came to me

Somehow, something

was missing,

something was

not taught,

not instilled inside

Others I found

had this quality that

I was searching for,

an inner peace coming

from deep within

Now, I speak of it often,

for I have captured it

and contain the feeling

that was lost to me,

I have found the secret

Love thy self,

for without thy love

of one, you cannot share

your love with many,

remembering -

I am first, after God
