Ayla
Which secret hides in your name?
that you reflects in your sight?
You've seen so many things
and met so many souls.
Seen so much misery,
so many pains of destroyed souls,
that you prefer to hide you
in the depths of your soul
discover yourself, find yourself,
catch your feelings
and keep them
in every secret corner of your soul.
You prefers to reborn every morning,
during the singing of the birds,
to the sun's rays
and do a song to life,
to create it with your hands,
as you know it will be someday,
full of hope and peace.
You can never be silenced,
because you have the best weapons.
Peace, Love and Hope
Which are flowing out from a spring
in the bottom of your soul.
They cannot hurt you,
because you reborn every morning,
they only achieved to see themselves AYLA©
reflected in the brightness of your eyes.

The Blue Curtain

Do not hide you behind the curtain,

let us see your face,
because through your eyes,
we discover from your soul’s the light.
Although outwardly you are beauty,
is nothing compares,
within the love you treasure in your heart,

You are a dove, you're a white dove,
you are the peace, you are the joy,
which every human would being aspires to be.
Although you hide you behind the curtain,
the bright of you light,
outshines the sun by day light.

I paint on black,
light through a window
light of rays,
rays on the shadows,
on shadows of fears,
and anxieties of soul.
I want to paint light

I paint light of hope.

Reborn

Among daisies I am contemplating the beauty of life.

The simplicity of harmony, meanwhile my soul is reborn.
Life isn’t complicated, one must only know how to view it.
Contemplating with heart, I give to God thanks.
To be alive, for loving,
for being here and now among daisies,
to be born again awakening to life,
awaking after having slept,
through a bitter and dark night.
Among daisies I feel the peace that overwhelms me;
It is better to give than to receive,
detaching my soul, having enough to live:
That’s all
I start to fly again, light as a feather
bright as the light of dazzling butterflies.
I welcome my good fortune, love and joy;
I am full of joy.
I learned the lesson, after years of delay.
Among daisies, I am reborn into the world.
Once again, but new, just like a child, with my ignorance,
having unlearned everything I learned:
Just enjoy today and now.
For delight of the senses, live for the moment only.
I don’t remember anything more.

I love to evoke the past,

other eras that we recorded
in our genes,
in the deepest recesses
of soul´s memory.
Always connected, rooted,
as the tree to the ground.

Splendor of other times,

simple and brutal
generating the awakening of
culture,
to language,
our cradle and first steps,
to art and poetry.

Age of great thinkers and

philosophy ...

The Window

One day in front of my canvas,

I was thinking of what to paint.
I painted a pretty wall just with a beauty frieze,
but it was empty,
I missed a window and its painting need.
I painted an open window which never closed could be,
behind was a beautiful forest and a young woman,
who was inviting me to go in.
I imagined myself entering,
into the world I created with my brush,
and there, what she wanted me to show.
It was a nice world, where reigned the peace,
a dreamed shelter, for all humanity.
There was no hatred or rancor,
only love, light and equality
where all our hopes came true.
But how sad I felt, I painted it so small,
that I could not pass through.
So I can only from this site,
with the world behind my little window , dream.

Peace

In the depths of my soul,

I feel only compassion
for the blind people who are full
of anger and resentment.
We have created this life
ourselves.
It's just an illusion.
Poor silly people, poor fools.
What a waste of lives, empty and
loveless.
What do they have in their soul?
What do they have in their heart?
What do they gain by doing
harm?
Life is like a breath. It is only our
illusion. DREAM OF PEACE©

Loneliness,

Emptiness inside my soul, which splits me in

an immense solitude,
and breaks my heart in two, this immense
loneliness.
So much love to give away and I find so many
barriers.
Why must it should be so?
Perhaps it is modesty, indecision, hesitation or
shame?
I am not prepared to accept it, I have the
impudence,
I not feel any shame, nor shyness neither violence.
I want to love people, love them without barriers.
Outside injury, go out.
For me Love is all that counts,
giving love compassion and strength.
If not, what would be the sense, of this life on the
earth?
Loving without expecting anything to return,
is life’s eternal joy by itself.
Love is the only way for salvation,
among this loneliness in darkness. LONELINESS ©

Hunger

The world is broken; the world is split, with a big gap.

Some have color and abundance, the other is black and hungry.
It is a terrible disease, there is no hope, the gap is getting bigger,
everyone wants to see the color, escape from hunger and terror.
Many lives left on it, that madness, that horror.
We see it meanwhile we eat, in the news, sitting in the lounge.
We are accustomed, we see it without shame,
increasingly less important,
but it should break our hearts and our senses.
What are doing the powerful, with costly
costumes and great education?
Does not stir their consciences as Gentlemen,
instead to be so passive, in front such a disaster and desolation?
When will react how many must still die?
Everything in life will be paid and puts each one in its place.
We become victims, of our wonderful system,
which is eating itself well. Who would have thought this?
Every man for himself,
such smart and Gentlemen did not cover the gap,
forward to the black the color.
God is wise, more than them, the gap is plugging, yes,
but does not expand the color it is expanding black.
Going from black to color easy,
move from color to black is bad.

Blue Velvet

Alice, today is holiday,

Alice, you look so beautiful,
with that beautiful blue velvet dress,
like the sea.

You're so happy and playful,

that I'm looking smitten.
Now you play hide and seek
it costs you to keep hold on your laughters,
to not be discovered
and you have to count and search.

I remember my childhood,
and so far that I can’t barely recall.
Living the innocence of childhood,
games and nothing else.
No worries for the future,
no past to regret.

Never let your child sleep,

even if you have 80 years or more.
Many let their child sleep
and could not wake up ever more.
Alicia, do not let that happen to you, BLUE VELVET ©
because this, the essence of happiness is.

The Magic Lives

I love to believe in fairies,

in their magic and power,
hidden in the forests
and houses.

I like feeling like a girl,

imagine that they are hidden,
doing something naughty,
for our attention call.

After hiding playful,

but I know they are there.
And I'm sure that sometimes,
to fulfill our desires,
some extra help give us.

Painting is my live, the way to transmit my feelings,
inviting the viewer to imagine a history, awake
sleeping memories from subconscious, may other times, other
lives...

I begun to paint as therapy, I had to leave a great job

because of my health. Now is the way how can express my
senses.
All the artworks have their poem, which explains my
feelings during I paint.

I hope that the reader enjoy it same as I did, creating it, because
this little treasure comes from the deepest of my soul, helping me
to reborn, as a wither flower seed falls and is reborn as new
flower in spring.
