I Love You by Ella Wheeler Wilcox

I love your lips when they’re wet with wine
And red with a wild desire;
I love your eyes when the lovelight lies
Lit with a passionate fire.
I love your arms when the warm white flesh
Touches mine in a fond embrace;2346875951?profile=original
I love your hair when the strands enmesh
Your kisses against my face.2346875992?profile=original

Not for me the cold, calm kiss
Of a virgin’s bloodless love;

Writing Prompt ~ Used To

 Me and my friends are used to going out from home to work at 7 PM. I don't drive, but my friends Alex and Matt are used to driving because they took their driver's license long time ago.

To calm myself down when Miguel is driving besides me, I used to take some medication. Miguel is a reckless  new driver! Now,

My first solo travel - Part 1

Hanoi has been too hot for these two days. When I walked to work in the morning, I looked up at the sky and imagined it is the blue ocean. The clouds seemed to turn into the white canoe surfing on the sea. Gosh, I miss my 1 week solo travel to the middle part of my country. It was my first experience traveling alone, which I will never ever forget. I had written a short blog about it but did not publish on EC. Today, reading noaslpls’s blog, I feel inspired and want to rewrite it. Well, it is go

Northern Adventures - Day One

This is one of the hardest blogs that I've ever written. It seemed to take forever for me to write and finish it. Due to certain circumstances, I seemed can't find my way to finish it. But when I took the time to re-write and continue with it, it seemed in a way to purge some of the sadness away. Now, I can look back to my holiday with fond memories and I don't feel so guilty for enjoying my holidays.

Day One

Recently I took a week long holiday and went to the Northern parts of Malaysia. I went to

You may or may not know each letter of the word FAMILY has its own meaning and they all make it a really meaningful word.

FAMILY:

F stands for Father, A – And, M – Mother, I – I, L – Love, Y– You

No,it was not a windy night at all! Once Tintin's  elder uncle told her a creepy short story. He is a poet and can describe anything very neatly. The story was a bit mysterious.

 It was a rainy late evening when Tintin entered her grandpa's house.That house had an orchard in the back and a very beautiful flower-garden in the front side.There was also a small pond in the midst of the house premises and the orchard.

One night when Tintin's uncle was busy with his writing,he could hear a rustle just

Anjie!

I was very much disappointed and dejected for what has happened this morning. I did not mean to hurt her, actually I didn’t mean anything. It was just a talk, a joke or just an addressing out of love, but she got angry. I was shocked to see her anger, which was due to nothing.


Her name was Angie, or what I call her.  Today when I saw her passing by ignoring me, I just called her "Kallo", it was all out of my zealous love, and nothing else, because I was very much attracted towards her by her ebo

We see a lot of things throughout the day, we see them all the time, we notice them some times, we talk about them rarely and we forget most of the time. This is what usually happens. But sometimes, even we do not discuss about it, it sticks somewhere at the back of the mind unconsciously. This is what is happening with me. Maybe I am not saying anything, but I am down and dump and my heart is feeling the pain stoically.

It was a picture I saw in the newspaper ‘The Indian Express’ on late July. A

This is quite an easy question to ask, but not an easy one to answer. It is a question that points out to the complexities of life which we will only come to understand after we have been pained, wounded and scarred.

Bad things happen to good people because they are the chosen ones. It’s the good people who have the ability and capability to withstand the test of time and become better persons. That’s how life sees them.

I’m not saying that bad people will never become good and better. There’s alw

was it the Witching hour of night, have no idea till now! It was happened a long time ago in an outskirts of an old fashioned  town. Where owls went out  and Foxes started their pace and howls just after the Sun went down in the horizon. There dusk meant rattling of various unknown creatures whom we dare to face even in the day light!

In true sense, it was a dark, moonless, mid night! It seemed there was no one sleepless. Normally, Tintin liked to be up at late night but that night she was tired.
