Deception is a 2-Way Street:

You say I’m unfaithful, but look at you……you’ve had another Man in our home. How can I trust you to keep what we share sacred……if you’re with another behind closed-doors, alone? You have accused me of lying, and not being transparent……but, your dishonesty has been even more than evident. You stated that I’ve been communicating… Continue reading

“Shine”

The Suddeness of Life & Death!!!

I saw a beautiful Bird, just lying on the ground. At first, I thought it injured, didn’t make a sound. It wasn’t till I edged closer to it, that realized it dead. My appreciation of the Bird’s beauty turned to dread. It was a stark reminder, of the fact that Life is so short. And,… Continue reading

When it’s your time to demise, however you may despise… …there is no turning-back, there is no such compromise… …As it’s your time to go, your breathing getting fast and then slow… …your Faith, all of a sudden, starts switching: between high & low… …The Soul of the dearly-departing sways in the winds and that’s… Continue reading

The Day I saw the Angels move the Clouds

On a most sweltering day, my mind began to say, “When will this battering heat ever end?”… …Now, don’t get me wrong: I love the Summer just as any other, but the heat was very intense… As I endured the hot winds from the Sun, I wondered, “How will the weather break?”… It had poured… Continue reading

About Gareth Bryant’s Writing/Blogging:

This is the official writing-blog of Gareth Bryant. To keep it simple: I just love writing poetry & writing generally. I can make a poem out of anything, and I can write about any subject matter. This is just one of the things that Allah has given me as a talent, and I plan to share that with as many individuals on Earth as possible.

If you enjoy poetry/writing just as much as I do, or even more, then, this page is just for you & so is my writing & poetry. 🙂

Any thoughts, reflections, advice, comments, complaints, please, feel free to leave them, so I can receive them, and make attempts to not only improve my own writing, but to make sure that whoever views this page is able to enjoy what I’m presenting even more, and if they’re not enjoying what’s being presented, that I go out of my way to make sure that they do enjoy it.
