I Decided To Be An Artist

I was embraced by too many fears and gray clouds

I suffered a lot from uncertainty in the past

So I decided to be a poet

And with magical colors I beautify life on the planet.

I will sing like a bird after warm rains

There will be no anxiety and sadness in my heart

Like a colorful butterfly drinking flower nectar

I will collect the colors of the Rainbow with thin tips of eyelashes.

And with the fingers of my heart I will take the color of the sun

Let the light fall where darkness reigns

And blue clouds will soak my feather

To awaken hope in the souls of all people.

And I will steal a handful of stars from the constellations

May the moon condemn me for my poetic whim

I will sprinkle all homes with magic dust

To breathe happiness, love and peace into them.

My Wishes

I would like to change this world

If there was no hatred, malice and envy

I would like people to love and respect each other more

And forgive each other's mistakes.

I would like divisions to be overcome

Regardless of all our differences

Yes, we do not quarrel but love

Let harmony reign in our lives.

I would like happiness to bloom everywhere

That the whole planet smells of joy

By respecting other people's opinions, we will strengthen our positions

That with fewer problems we can achieve our dreams.
