Dir en Grey - Conceived Sorrow
The gloomy tomorrow has already died
I hated myself for not being able to forgive the tears, the lies and the love
But I can't go back
Just another piece I fully came up with today probably going to be my last for awhile with me being overloaded with tattoo commissions.
My sorrow, when she's here with me,
Thinks these dark days of autumn rain
Are beautiful as days can be;
She loves the bare, the withered tree;
She walks the sodden pasture lane.

My November Guest
We move often with my hubbies company, 8 states...because of this my kiddos will never be able to say they grew up in this house or remember this or that familiar thing. So I have kept everything! We came home from spring break to find that our garage had flooded and some of our our keepsakes destroyed...........I am so sad this is just a portion of one box.
The feeling continues in this peice. Although this was inspired by Killswitch Engage's 'The Arms Of Sorrow'.

Dreams and sorrows like fallen empires
Cast about within my conscience
At each event a line is crossed
When every horizon is another place
When mountains rise and rivers flow
And forests cover every land
And merge into unending vistas
With great sky’s above
That threatens storms
That brings about alertness
Am I not then within that place
That other land without a face
It is here and now in quiet grace
Awakened with sorrows memory
That I return alone from dreams
Only to see them vanish in quickened time
The memory seeps away the fear
Released from dark with no one near
To see the look within my eyes
That only another soul could see
The light of a new day then draws near
A future that’s part clear
Reveals that Its hear and now
This place of life
This world of my birth
This space that I am within
Not alone as dreams might say
No proof that there is another way
Where only shadows race
Before some ghostly sun.
Poem: by Richard Walker 21 September 2011
Note: Awakened from a vivid dream can sometimes have us for a moment in that strange place between memory and reality, we try to measure what seems to be a real experience with what is real.

Had a trip to Dublin Zoo with the family today. This is an image of a large Lowland Gorilla. He's a silverback and looked forlorn as he groomed himself. This was taken through the thick glass on the enclosure.
Took a drive to Lakeview cemetery on sunday morning.
Thank you www.flickr.com/photos/tallow65/, this is a very nice spot.
What happened:
A 7-story residential building collapsed the night of July 18th, 2007 in the Borivali district of Mumbai, India. As of July 19th, at least 15-20 people have died, many injured, and many still stuck under the rubble. The ground floor of the building had a jewelry store
Graveyards have always fascinated me.
My grandmother used to take me with her to Beachwood Cemetary to plant flowers as she was nervous to go alone ... not from the permanent residents of course but, rather, those who may be visiting or, as she said in thick Scottish accent from "men waiting to attack women that are alone". Uh huh so what is a young teenage girl supposed to do to help an old lady I thought but that wasn't the point...safety in numbers I guess.
Sorry I digressed there.
It was the old ornate stones, the history of those who were there now resting from the mid 1800's in many instances.
These ornate larger than life in some instances guardians watching over loved ones are an art form in themselves. Hand carved and lovingly created by a master craftsman so that his creation would forever stand the test of time and watch over those long gone.
The lichens growing on the stones just seem to add to the character of them.
In any event, I had fun photographing histories and GP had fun exploring history an old cemetary yesterday in Elizabethtown-Kitley just west of Brockville on Highway 2.
La Recoleta Cemetery, Buenos Aires, Argentina
La Recoleta Cemetery (Spanish: Cementerio de la Recoleta) is a cemetery located in the Recoleta neighbourhood of Buenos Aires, Argentina. It contains the graves of notable people, including Eva Perón, presidents of Argentina, Nobel Prize winners, the founder of the Argentine Navy, and a granddaughter of Napoleon. In 2011, the BBC hailed it as one of the world's best cemeteries, and in 2013, CNN listed it among the 10 most beautiful cemeteries in the world.
The monks of the Order of the Recoletos arrived in this area, then the outskirts of Buenos Aires, in the early eighteenth century. The cemetery is built around their convent and a church, Our Lady of Pilar (Iglesia de Nuestra Señora del Pilar), built in 1732. The order was disbanded in 1822, and the garden of the convent was converted into the first public cemetery in Buenos Aires. Inaugurated on 17 November of the same year under the name of Cementerio del Norte (Northern Cemetery), those responsible for its creation were the then-Governor Martin Rodríguez, who would be eventually buried in the cemetery, and government minister Bernardino Rivadavia. The 1822 layout was done by French civil engineer Próspero Catelin, who also designed the current facade of the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Cathedral. The cemetery was last remodeled in 1881, while Torcuato de Alvear was mayor of the city, by the Italian architect Juan Antonio Buschiazzo.
Set in 5.5 hectares (14 acres), the site contains 4691 vaults, all above ground, of which 94 have been declared National Historical Monuments by the Argentine government and are protected by the state. The entrance to the cemetery is through neo-classical gates with tall Doric columns. The cemetery contains many elaborate marble mausoleums, decorated with statues, in a wide variety of architectural styles such as Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Baroque, and Neo-Gothic, and most materials used between 1880 and 1930 in the construction of tombs were imported from Paris and Milan. The entire cemetery is laid out in sections like city blocks, with wide tree-lined main walkways branching into sidewalks filled with mausoleums.
