Maria C. Pires Costa Poems

That voice's come pretty clear
Like reaching every point near
Encircling us sweetly
In comfort, silently.
...

Waking up...
Beholding books, flowers
A blessing wrapped me up
In a sweet time of ours.
...

An Angel whisper'd to me:
'All times should be of love
Aimed to build real peace
To overcome old tensions
...

27th July- a British milestone
Welcoming two hundred and four countries
Through a parade of emotions, no fears,
Sounds of music and loads of cheers!
...

Oh! The blue butterfly enjoys soaring high
Her fragile wings have become strong
And she even yearns for touching the sky!
...

In the hot afternoon sun
They seemed eager to run
And cast a glance to each other
Remaining silent and closer...
...

That afternoon session
made such a big difference
from glorious days of the past
when youngsters and elders
...

At a crucial time
Of your people's history
Do not lose your bravery!
Keep struggling firmly
...

No food, no electricity, no home, no prompt help!
Everywhere the catastrophic signs left by Hurricane Katrina
With the unacceptable authorities'delay...
Towards relief efforts in the social arena!
...

It comes as a light
It beholds us tight
It helps us revive
And keeps us alive.
...
