A new family

Published by Ondrej on July 29, 2022

I count my blessings and thank all my gods
This opportune fortune is quite something
My veins filled with love and family
A new family, a new life sketching itself
Bathed in summer’s glorious days of sunshine and joy
Love is so thick in the hot summer air
Throwing back feelings of worry and tumult
Overpowering all ills
I count my fortune and my blessings
And think of not endings but beginnings
A life charts itself forward in front of me
Into it I will gladly dive, darling, see?

Return from a faraway land

Published by Ondrej on December 22, 2020

Return from a faraway land
Her eyes shining so bright
full of hope, joy and emotion;
His smile—deep, genuine
An almost otherworldly sight.

Waiting for months on end
with a terrible disaster raging on
indeed, the end seemed out of sight
till their son did postcards send.

That was the joy of two parents—
an indescribable sea of emotions
the smile on their faces said it all
their son had come home, once and for all.
