When I hear this sound that awakens me, intimidating its way into my cloistered night, I write…

“A LITTLE BIT LONGER”

In between the sound of color,

In between the echo of your thought,

In between the seconds of your living,

In between the meanings you were taught,

In between the silence and the laughter,

in between the painting and the brush,

In between ghetto and the suburb,

In between the mid morning rush…

It is a time for peace and harmony,

Throughout the world.

And each time you think of it,

It lasts a little bit longer!! …

Author: elliebelfiglio

I am a professor, a poet, an author, and an immigrant. I am the survival of many political and economical hardship. As a political immigrant, it took me a long time to master the English language and to come to terms that I can never see my family again. "THE PARTING FROM MY FAMILY WAS THE BEGINNING OF A FRIENDSHIP THAN THE END OF OUR FRIDAYS!" My autobiography, "THE RAIN STOPS IN TEXAS" was published in 1997 by Eakin Press. It can be found in Amazon. As Ernest Hemingway says, write about something you know, most of my novels are about cultural difference of the old and new and American style of living compare to my home country. My poetry are in all forms. I write as they come to me. My first draft is always my last draft. "THIS IS MY WORLD, WELCOME!" "THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE!"
