Damon Thomas, Some Books Are Not For Sale
“Dear
March,
most
Awaited is your arrival,
You
are the inspiration for revival!!
Winter’s
farewell! Spring’s knocking…
Tiptoeing
Beauty, elegance and new beginnings..
I
leave my old behind, embrace myself afresh and new..
To
step into a brand novel chapter and year of life’s hue..
Sunflowers
turn their course towards sun..
Courage
and magic enriches new vigour, initiatives are marked done..
You
choose, you pick up the best, happy and grateful..
Why
linger on with dented, stale and awful?
Your
time and journey are solely yours..
Possess
and empower them with open hearts and doors…
Power,
blessings, happiness, Surety, agreements are waiting your hug.
Run
and welcome them all, whisper aloud- Yes and find luck!!

“Laine
gathers everyone in a circle as fire emits from her fingertips. She passes that
fire to the others--- little balls of flame that manifest in their hands.
I
don't feel insulted that I'm not gifted with a little piece of her. My magic is
too weak in this realm to control the flames he shares with the others.
Fire
cupped in their hands, everyone, even Uncle, begins to sing an ode to my life,
their voices pleasant despite the slightly disjointed rhythm. It makes me feel
warm inside but not as warm as I feel when Laine takes a deep breath, calling
upon all of her magic.
Caroline
and Marcella continue to sing, but much like White Robe Jeon and Uncle, I
watch, stunned, as Laine's flames transform the air around her into hot ribbons
of light. Those ribbons whisk upward with the air, flickering in tune to the
rhythm Caroline and Marcella sing. It shines with glory, restrained yet wild,
pained yet happy. And Laine is its master, calling to not only it but all those
gifted with flame, to the creatures birthed from the flame itself.
Dragons.
Only
one appears tonight, wild and true as its silver scales catch the glimmer of
the moon. It doesn't look back at us, but it has sensed Laine's magic. And it
lets out a raw cry that could only have reverberated through Laine to reveal
hidden truths.”

Khalia Moreau, The Princess of Thornwood Drive
“On
her ninth birthday, she'd woken up to find every tree in her mother's garden
had branches full of lollipops tied to them with polka-dot strings. There were
also gumdrops sitting in the centre of the flowers and overlarge pieces of rock
candy laid among the blades of grass to make it seem as if the garden stones
had turned to candy in the night.”

“On
my birthday, Old Bear gives me my own instrument.
"Now
you can play with your friends," he says.
"You
can fill the sky with beautiful music.”

“Until
my 24th Birthday, I have only worked one single Day in an official Job and I am
proud of that – because everyone 'must' do it, but I lived Life without working
— happily.”

Age
is a number, that’s no excuse I see
let’s
get at terms with 43
Age
is sure, strong & surprisingly it flees
Wee
three, in teens, 23,33 and heading ahead in the series
Today
I stumble on 43,
It’s
truly a nice day to travel back in Time Machine
Dream,
dream and just dream….
Saying
hello to younger me
Living
all the lovely birthdays so far, rare as silver birch tree
As
age grows, sensibility too increase
Celebrations
change but deep in heart, wishes swirl magical and free
A
thing relatable to smaller me
I am
sure you too would agree”

“43
Age
is a number, that’s no excuse I see
let’s
get at terms with 43
It’s
truly a nice day to travel back in Time Machine
The
little child will always stay sound and on spree
Let’s
get this thing right and as a highlighted key
Mindset
shift relives the yester & present glory
Don’t
run after something ephemeral and brief
Time’s
fleeting to spend in vain and worry
43,
& more - count will grow, no doubtedly
Mindfulness,
happiness, integrity will make it all glee
Finally
what’s the last line of this poetry?
Well!
43’s no big deal, chill & merry
Happy
birthday to me!!!”
