World Without Books
World Without Books
What would we read?
What would we write?
How would we plead
The tale of our plight?
A world without books
Would be a world without dreams
Unshared and lost
In an ocean of screams.
How would we know
How our brother man feels?
If we could not peruse
His way and his will?
How would we treasure
Another friend's heart?
If we could not read it
We'd stay miles apart.
A world without books
Would be a world without voice
We'd reason in silence
Not seeing a choice.
For books bid us "Come!"
And welcome us home
And allow us to find out
That we're not alone.

The Mentalist....one of my favorite shows ever with one of the greatest actors ever
Am I the only human being that watched this show over and over again
and picked up all the nuances and Alfred Hitchcockian mysteries and twists
and turns and clues and knew EXACTLY how it was supposed to end
practically from the beginning but felt that they changed it to a standard
conformed ending at the end? Or is it just that I am a writer who really got
inside the character's head and heart?
The answer was ALWAYS there in front of our eyes. This magnificent
storyline deserved a better ending just like LOST did. I almost stopped
watching tv after the horrible way they ended that incredibe series but
then I got as hooked on The Mentalist but was ultimately let down badly.
Does anyone out there know what I am referring to?

R. I.P. to Graham Greene one of my very favorite people and actors Labor Day 2025
Graham Greene, Dances with Wolves actor,
dies aged 73
The trailblazing Canadian First Nations actor, who was nominated for an Academy Award, died in Toronto after a long illness.
“He was a great man of morals, ethics and character and will be eternally missed,” Greene’s agent, Michael Greene (no relation), told Deadline. “You are finally free.”
Greene was born in 1952 in Ohsweken, on the Six Nations Reserve in Ontario, Canada. He fell into acting while working as a recording engineer, after a friend persuaded him to read his script. He started on stage, performing in Canadian and English productions in the 1970s, before making his screen debut in 1979 in an episode of the Canadian drama The Great Detective. His first film role was in the 1983 biopic Running Brave.
Greene’s Hollywood breakthrough came when Kevin Costner cast him as real-life Lakota Sioux medicine man Kicking Bird (Ziŋtká Nagwáka) in his Academy Award-winning 1990 western Dances with Wolves. Greene’s performance landed him an Academy Award nomination and launched his Hollywood career, which included roles in Thunderheart (1992), Maverick (1994), Die Hard with a Vengeance (1995), The Green Mile (1999) and The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009).
Prolific across his career, he worked until the end, with multiple projects yet to be released.
Greene won Grammy, Gemini and Canadian Screen awards across his career and has a star on Canada’s Walk of Fame. In June he received the Canadian governor general’s performing arts award for lifetime achievement.
Reflecting on his career in a 2024 interview for Canada’s Theatre Museum, Greene said: “When I first started out in the business, it was a very strange thing where they’d hand you the script where you had to speak the way they thought native people spoke. And in order to get my foot in the door a little further, I did it. I went along with it for a while … You gotta look stoic. Don’t smile … you gotta grunt a lot.
“I don’t know anybody who behaves like that. Native people have an incredible sense of humour.
“And that’s what I said to Kevin [Costner]. I said, you know, the people in this film [Dances with Wolves], in this village, they have an incredible family, incredible relationship and fun has always been part of that. Fun is 50% of how they live and enjoy things. Family is family, no matter what.”
Greene is survived by his wife of 35 years, Hilary Blackmore, his daughter, Lilly Lazare-Greene, and grandson Tarlo.

I Wanna Make You Shine
I don't know why this old song makes me cry like a baby
but it does. Always has. It touches something deep inside me
that I can't explain. Maybe joy, maybe sadness, maybe both
I don't know
Maybe I need to cry.

Forget?

Communicate
Communicate
We don't need words
When we communicate
We don't need nouns or verbs
Or syllables
We don't even need sound.....
My heart wants
Your heart responds
Your heart needs
And my heart gives
It's always been
That way with us
Always.....
Our minds met
In dreams
Our hearts met
In poetry
Our souls met
In destiny.
We speak telepathically
Like they do in Paradise
Where minds are One
And hearts are One
And love is all there is.
It feels good to be known
For who we truly are
And not for who they think we are
Or want us to be..........
For we are truly us
When we are together.
One day God smiled
And orchestrated our meeting
Communicating His desire
To see us happy
To see us complete
As planned in eternity
Before we knew ourselves
And that we were not yet whole.
We don't need words
You and I
Because we feel so much
Say so much with every kiss,
Every embrace,
Every caress........
Every glance
Of our matching dark eyes.
We communicate
In ways the world would never understand
Woman and man.....
Hand in hand and heart to heart
Where you end and where I start
We cannot tell, we cannot say
For it has always been this way.
My fingers beg and beckon you
My eyes flash lightning
My breath calls your name
My arms bid you welcome
My body leads you home.
What more is there to say?
What words could convey
The way I need, I want, I love
Better than the song in my eyes?
The poetry in my touch?
We communicate......
We communicate......
Every need met
Every hunger fed
Every yearning, fulfilled
Every dark fear, conquered.
We need no words......
But lest the unseeing world
Think us fools and dunces
Who live in silence...........
I will scream my love into the wind,
Call the clouds to listen to our story,
Thank God in prayer for sending you to me
And tell the universe .......
In a thousand ways, unsaid and said:
How much I love you and your smiling eyes
That speak to me in gentleness and bliss
That fan the fires inside of me without a word
And then consume me in your love
And with the flame of your sweet kiss.
Communicate with me, my love
Communicate with me.
