Cupidity [3]



Kismet Diner.


Here is the third video for you.
 Remember the films all follow a pattern, the same theme, 
but every story is different, not the sentiment though. 

This is one of my favorite so far, yet my favorite is yet to come, guess
 I'm keeping the best for last!, 
although I think this is the sweetest of them all. 

Let me know what you think! love to hear from you!. 

...

Enjoy!.

Haiku Heights #279 ~ September Heights Day 06  

Teacher




Sigh - Bell marks the start
Tries again to explain Math
Paper planes fly round

...

Finally! Bell rings
Grab things as fast as she can
Woosh - gone before kids!

...

Sees herself on bench
A couple of years ago
So many dreams then..

...

Child raises his hand
Good! Student takes keen int'rest
"Miss, can I go pee?".

...

Rebel youth shout loud,  
Sing and dance upon desks tops,
Teacher walks - silence!.   

...

Morning - school bell rings, 
One by one slowly find seat,
Chalk Scribbles - exam!.  

...

When I don't study!, 
An apple for the teacher, 
That will do the trick!




Haiku Heights #278 ~ September Heights Day 05 

 Ballet





She laced her slippers, 
Butterflies in her stomach, 
Deep breath - curtain down.

...

A lake formed from tears, 
Moon light to show her true face, 
Her death came too soon!. 

...

Young girl had big dreams,
To one day perform as swan,
Poor thing - she cracked toe.  

...

Of tutus and points
I never understood much,
Nutcracker 's a tool!



Haiku Heights #277 ~ September Heights Day 04 

 Shepherd




Chop onion to start, 
Add mutton, make creamy mash,  
Perfect shepherd's pie!. 

...


From dawn till dusk herds,
His dear black and white sheep,
Trusty dog beside.

...

One by one he counts,
Missing black sheep, must have run,
Call in vain - wolf howl. 





Haiku Heights #276 ~ September Heights Day 03 

 Silver



A kiss marked the Lord,
 Blood stained thirty silver coins,
A rope marked the end.

...

Away from the eye, 
Lovers meet lips making love 
High - Silver moon shines. 




Haiku Heights #275 - September Heights Day 2


Guardian






Seated, Dorment, Still 
A pair - stone at the entrance
The lion dogs rest


...

Upon heavens shine,
Your beauty - ho mighty star
My strength beside me.

...

Warden of my soul
You love me for who I am,
I know you can hear.

...

Dear defender,
You protect this helpless me,
Until my last breath. 
    


Haiku Heights #274 - September Heights Day


Frogs



Near a pond we met, 
Love at first sight it read - kissed 
No prince yet again...   

...

Patiently waited 
For a moth to pass by me, 
In a jiffy, slurp!.  

...

Hippidy Hop Hop
Leap Upon Lily Pond Leaves
Ribbit! Boy and Jar!




Haiku Heights #273 - 

Bat


Prince of the macabre 
At dusk, your kingdom reveals  
Light melts it away.

...

Flapping wings unfold
Upon darkened nights he swoops
Echoes - a blind chase.

Pixel 3rd edition "Happy Xmas"





A few months back I was invited to join and write a short story with the theme (Happy Xmas) by Pixel. 
I must say It was not easy to fit all of what I had to say in just 250 words, but somehow I kind of managed. I enjoyed every second and every word I wrote down for this competition, and I be looking forward for the next! always if I be given the chance to participate.  

Today the E-book is out and launched. INDEX E-books have provided Copies on this link  HERE

Also printed copies are available on demand and orders. 





INDEX Say...
"The spirit of Christmas always so controversial" was the motto for the Pixel 3, whose theme was inspired by the music of John Lennon Happy Xmas. As in previous editions of the competition, the aspect of true stories had a significant weight, and this time with a special meaning for documenting one side less "happy" Christmas. This edition saw the participation of 27 authors, 32 stories (prose, in poetry and video / design), fulfilling the purpose of having beyond the stories written in prose form. For the first time the competition was won by a fiction story and it was due to the fact that the fictional stories have achieved exceptional quality!!.










PIXEL 1 and 2  short stories 
collection by various authors








 More from INDEX...
The contest Pixel (small stories lgbt) happens in the world of blogs, in the vast minority of the so called "blogsphere", and has featured two issues that took place on the blog (NET) that I am the author. The goal was not to hook and address professional  writers, but stories, be they true or imagined, and presented in a variety of forms (prose, poetry, video, images, sounds ...). The first contest was dedicated to the theme  "Good friends are hard to find"    song by Ed Harcourt  (which also gives the name to my blog), because it is a topic that we are always very important, and because at the core of "blogosphere"  friends are important and they are at the heart of writing, "especially those hardest to find"The second edition of Pixel had the motto  That hug   song by Gilberto Gil, because the  "blogosphere" is also a big hug that unites us all, including those on the other side of the Atlantic.

Two awards one blog.



Once again I must thank my dear friend and faithful reader Gwanni from the blog "Virgulas do destino" for nominating me for not one! but two awards!. I take this opportunity to thank you all my dear listeners of whispers. For visiting regularly and support this corner, from my heart I must say that I appreciate it a lot. Hope I be able to get on track with my reading list again, days have been hectic lately. 

This is the first badge I have been awarded ....  



       ...the nominated blogs will be awarded this badge as a sign of gratitude. 


For the first badge I have been asked these 11 questions, which I will be passing on to you. 




The questions we have to answer are:



* If you could go back, what would you change in your life?

 I think if I would go back I would not change a thing,
 for the simple reason I would not be the person I am today. 

* If the world ended tomorrow, what would you do?

Keep calm and continue living the last moments probably with people I love. 

* You prefer the Field (countryside)  or the City?

Both have a certain charm I guess but as I live in a small village I think I love more the countryside most. 

* Tennis or high heels?

LOL ok I can't even remotely imagine myself in heals! I already mop the floor in my pumps!.  

* What is the most embarrassing moment you spent and why?

I guess one of the worst was telling my "in-laws" a stupid joke about how could anyone have such horrible taste and choose a blue bathroom set...moment later you ask to use the loo and guess what? they had a blue bathroom....(no wonder they did not laugh!!!).  

* Someone owes you an apology?

Half the people I know...the other half I own them one. 

* When you travel, what is one item you can't miss?

Toothbrush!.


* What is your favourite perfume?

Easy..."Echo" .

* What do you think before you go to sleep?

Did I set my alarm?...have I locked my car?...have I switched of the bathroom  lights?.

* What is your city of choice Portuguese?

No idea never been to Portugal!.

* What subjects do you like to read more in the blogosphere?

Personal.

To compliment this nomination I was nominated for my 3rd Liebster blog award!. 

Here are some rules I yet again found on the omnipotent google!. 



I'll try to stick as much as possible to the rules!. 

Here are the questions proposed to me. 

What is the origin of the name of your blog?. 
Well this is kind of easy, while thinking what I should have named my blog (it should have been diary of a grown up or something like that!) I received a call from Cassidy, now my ringtone was the song "The last song I'm wasting on you" and one of the first lines is "Any more then a whisper" and I thought this will perfectly fit!. 

Your blog is a part of you, do people know about it or do you keep it as a secret?.
Its a secret! only one friend knows about it!. (That's you Tory!!)

What is your favorite place to think?.
My bedroom or by the sea...


What is your biggest dream?.
Making my dreams come true! ;)

Yes! perfumes!, and antiques!.

Still treasure an object from your childhood?. 
Yes! a hand puppet of a bear, and a t-shirt gifted to me from my aunt that died a few days later she gave it to me... 


If you could get a story in which Barrier?. 
Hope I got this right, I cant quite picture it. Personal I guess...


Romeo & Juliet or Titanic?.
Definitely  Romeo & Juliet!. 


What is the earliest memory you remember?.
Age 2 playing in the sand on the beach with a black plastic speedboat with a yellow driver!. 

Do you have a strange habit or do something that you think you are the only person to do it?. 
Not sure...but lately got this bad habit of touching my beard with my tongue!  quite disgusting if you think about it, but quite a comforting feeling!!. 


Now one must tell 11 things about him\her self.


  1. I most of the times write my real name instead of Hotei. 
  2. I'm a hygiene freak. 
  3. I learned to speak Italian before my own mother language!.

  7. I'm a coffee lover. 
  8. I'm an awful dancer. 
  9. I have a forged permit! Shhhh! don't tell ;)
  10. I couldn't care less about "eurovision".
  11. I get inspired when I wear my red woolly socks!....True!... seriously!.


Now my questions!. 

  1. First thing that comes to your head when you hear the word chocolate!.
