"Autobiographies of great nations are written in three manuscripts – a book of deeds, a book of words, and a book of art. Of the three, I would choose the latter as truest testimony." - Sir Kenneth Smith, Great Civilisations

"I must write each day without fail, not so much for the success of the work, as in order not to get out of my routine." - Leo Tolstoy

I have never believed that one should wait until one is inspired because I think the pleasures of not writing are so great that if you ever start indulging them you will never write again. - John Updike

"The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another; and his humblest hour is when he compares the volume as it is with what he vowed to make it." - J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan

Poetry is the shadow cast by our streetlight imaginations." - Lawrence Ferlinghetti

Ev Vykin - Oh, Bliss of Our Life!




Oh, Bliss of Our Life!

by Ev Vykin



Oh, Bliss of our life we live and see,

Caressed by hand each flower and tree,

Where sun of heaven warms the soul,

Where wistful winds so softly blow,

O'er meadows and lawn on grass we dance,

A canvas of color not painted by chance,

Oh land of ours, our heaven on earth,

The soulful visions each year in rebirth,

This our bliss of the essence of life,

This our bless of the essence of life,

Where I can be me and truly feel free,

In serenity and tranquil peace -

Just me...and ....flower...and.... tree.
