Love conquers all

English translation:

Okay let her sleep
Now she can not hear
no you do not speak
why can not feel this heart
Wind does not tell you too
now she can not hear
sleeps sleeps and does not want
not like most that heart

Boy at the Window



It was late evening before the sun had set
My father bicycled out dressed in his uniform
Polish and proud, whistle, bell, cap
Handcuffs, trouser clips
To the station to the black hole
I watched him turn the corner out of sight

Book Review by Eric Adler


See my published books

Mervyn Cooke's 'O Derry Boy' smacks of Ireland and the Irish, and of his Irish background, and one feels the blood leaping from his prose.  This short childhood in pictures and poems falls neatly, if painfully in two parts.

Margaret Thatcher 1925 - 2013 RIP

And there's another country, I've heard of long ago,
Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know;
We may not count her armies, we may not see her King;



Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;
And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
And her ways are ways of gentleness and all her paths are peace.

White Fox Lyrics


白狐 (White Fox) by 陈瑞 (Chen Rui)
I am a fox with a thousand years of experience
A thousand years of experience; a thousand years of loneliness
In the depths of the night when people are still, some can hear me crying
Beyond the screen of the lantern's light, some can see me dancing

White Fox by Chen Rui
