Cris A... our fellow hubber aka... 'talented whipper-snapper'!

he is a romantic...as immortal as we come

Cris A image (hijacked gift)

calla lillies..for you
calla lillies..for you

he dreams of peace

rain...so naturally and delicously liquid

Divine...he is


with natural effervescence


raining from his heart


soothing, deep, passionate, evocative


essence so pure


dance of calla lillies in the wind


intricately woven


delectably live



we lay electrically somber



he seeps



into our minds



souls glowing brightly



as a Gaelic wind


blows the measure



inspiration within



our eyes become melted



as butterflies nest


or painted petals absorbed in chest


dripping, sublime


heart, his river to flow


fluidity through


his ebbs and flows


endlessly into our quintessence


he shines


a natural romantic


immersing, traversing, porous, kind


releasing the floodgates of heart and mind


as the ghost of neruda


breathing at our door


Carpe diem, my friend


you implore.






shines as a moon in full

Very Nice I*n*v*i*c*t*u*s. I enjoyed it more and more each time I read it. You have also embellished the text with some fine video choices. As a package, this is one of the things that makes HubPages so enjoyable for me - it makes me think, it relaxes, and it motivates - if you can believe that!

For the first time in a long time, I'm at a loss for words and to think words are like second skin to me. But I'll persevere - so thanks for this sweetest of gestures i am elation personified like new grass to the rain in the middle of summer. If appreciation can be manifested virtually, then mine comes with the bytes that this comment used to expend this space on which I now write. :D

told you he would like it, let us mark today on the calender, it is indeed a special day... listening to rain now xx

going to write one myself also wow this is creativity at it's very best........ love you both..... who is my favourite, er well for a long time i thought i*N*V*I*C*T*U*S was Cris, silly me.... happy to know the two of you, and i want your vocabulary ugh...... x

@brenda

and i thought you were invictus?! but i kid you, of course!

at least now it's settled we are three different people - so that means more poetry! Ha! :D

poetlorraine 2 years ago

i wish i could write like him., though some say he is a she, just published my poem, picked up on your grass thingyo, it stood out to me in your comments.....

Oh no!! I missed the party! Haha!

Cris, I am so happy you 'Lurve it'! Means a lot!! You, and your talents so inspire me and so many others. Your visions are breathtaking. Thank you for your lovely poetic response. :D

I look forward to you new brew!! ;)

Brenda ~ Thank you as well for your opinions on music selections. You so crack me up to think that I could have been Cris. Now, that is of the highest compliments! :P

Love you Both!

poetlorraine 2 years ago

you lie, you cheated me, but now i have you both, who is the lucky one now

I*n*v*i*c*t*u*s profile image

I*n*v*i*c*t*u*s Hub Author 2 years ago

What??? how did I cheat you?? LOL

I'd say we are all lucky... Though, I feel I am the luckiest! Ha!

poetlorraine 2 years ago

joking of course., let's sort this out....... Cris did a hub about Pablo Ner. I found someone had written about me, and Pablo. I blew up on the screen because it was sooooo kind, i was a little confused at that time anyway, and i think i thought the whole of hub pages was Cris, did not think anyone else was reading me, then whoever it was wrote a poem for me every day....... Not Telling who it was, cos do i even know./......... Hubpages was surely my life line at that time, and i do have so much to be grateful for, and will never forget the kindness........

Certainly we are all blessed, maybe equally, but probably i am most blessed, since i have had tuition also, which i would have never afforded, and an understanding..... you can really grow with that kind of help i feel.

I*n*v*i*c*t*u*s profile image

I*n*v*i*c*t*u*s Hub Author 2 years ago

you told a lot in your explanation... :P Hehe...

yes, I agree, we are all blessed..and I grow with all of you as well. ou inspire me too! I have stated that often, I think... :) It is wonderful to see how we can feed of each other inspirationally, for sure.

this was a lovely tribute to a talented gentleman, personally i do not like the avatar at the top and think there is nothing sexy about it...... however i do like the picture of Cris with the moon above him..... are you sexy?

ok so I cheated and I am back for my third of the day . . and on this cold cold NY December day you brought more sunshine then a day in May. . and you did it with your words and my most favorite flower. . the calla lily. . and its dedicated to someone i am just getting to know. . which is even better. cause you just showed me a whole lot of the reason everyone round here loves Cris . .its no wonder ;)

I*n*v*i*c*t*u*s profile image

I*n*v*i*c*t*u*s Hub Author 2 years ago

yeah, it is no wonder, once you experience his work! :) I am so happy you came across this one. I feel good comfort now, should his work render me speechless, as it often does, that at least there is evidence of how I feel he affects us... simply reading the comments on his hubs, one quickly understands the general affects. LOL

Thank you, for sharing your time with me on your dreary day. I am very happy my work brought you some sunshine! =D

Cris is everything and much much more..... This era of my life was special and tonight i am so sad.... Of course i am Brenda Scully Miss Take, Poet Lorraine, and i feel i am one of Cris' fave poets, You rest in peace young man, my heart is broken... xxxxxxx

I*n*v*i*c*t*u*s profile image

I*n*v*i*c*t*u*s Hub Author 3 months ago

Who would have thought, Frieda!?! woah, it is kinda eerie to make the connection of a tribute to Cris in a past tense.... I am very grateful to know that I often shared with Cris how much he meant to me.... he is deff one of a kind, and I look forward to crossing his path again, and again....

I so very agree, Brenda! We all shared such a beautiful time together and so very unique... it was through connecting the very essence of each of us.... he is always in my heart, as I am sure he is in MANY!!!

Joy56 profile image

Joy56 Level 3 Commenter 3 months ago

it is so unbelievable, that he could be here one minute and gone the next..... He kind of made you feel he belonged to you, if you know what i mean..... a kind word for everyone, what ever age, creed, intelligence level etc etc.... He sure was very inspirational and a great friend.....

looking back up there i forgot about Seasoning. Wow i dont think i could pull all that off now, how funny..... made our own entertainment for sure.....
