Dear friends, readers, Just returned from holiday and wanted to greet you with a sweet poem. This poem is both for adults and kids. Hope you enjoy, like, comment and share. Have a lovely week. THE REIGN OF DARKNESS ​As day hands over its seal to evening, Poor Evening, alas, did not know That its reign would be so fleeting. Yet Night, the prince of shadows, Was lying in ambush, cunning and low. Once the sun vanished from the horizon without a trace, And the moon revealed her features of grace, When the stars winked from high above, The prince of darkness, with a sudden strike, Swept in, seized the seal in a breath, And thus began the reign of Darkness. ​But did you think it would last forevermore? After twelve hours of labor pain, A radiant new day was born, Smiling through the clouds again. The prince of darkness fled into the shade, But "This story does not end here," he said.

THIRST AKA LONGING Do you know what longing is, O child? Longing is to stay silent when dying to speak Longing is a thirst that glues the tongue to the roof of the mouth And if you ask, what is the worst of thirst aka longing? It is being unable to drink while standing right beside the water Just like remaining parched in the middle of the sea Or, though your beloved is merely two steps away Being unable to touch them, unable to speak And remaining light-years apart #TikTok #Huracán #Poetry #writingcommunity #BookCommunity #booklover #love #rumi #poem

Dear friends, readers Glad to inform you that my long awaited Sci-Fi/thriller is available on Amazon, now. Hope you read, enjoy and leave a review. The link is below. amazon.com/dp/B0H6N6MRNL?spc… BOOK OVERVIEW What would happen if, one day, the sun rose from the West? A signal from deep space. A discovery no one can explain. And a world moving toward something it cannot yet name. Everything begins in Houston, when Egyptian-American astrophysicist Dr. Leyla Hassan detects an unusual supernova event through NASA’s observation network. What first appears to be a rare astronomical anomaly soon reveals impossible patterns—patterns that should not exist. The investigation leads far beyond observatories and scientific models. Joined by Hakan Demir, a Turkish scientist working with NASA, Leyla follows a trail stretching across continents: from the ancient sanctuaries of Göbekli Tepe and Karahan Tepe to the pyramids of Egypt, forgotten languages, hidden chambers, and secrets buried beneath the oldest stones on Earth. But science is not the only guide. Kemal Bey—a retired professor of ancient languages—and his gifted granddaughter Meryem begin noticing fragments of old prophecies, symbols, and warnings that seem less like history— and more like memory. Meanwhile, the world begins to shift. Energy networks become unstable. Unexpected crises spread across distant regions. Institutions struggle to keep pace. Some disruptions seem accidental. Others appear strangely timed. And as uncertainty spreads, a new language quietly emerges: stability. coordination. security. In the shadows, some are no longer trying to stop what is coming. They are helping shape it. Not to destroy the world—but to reboot it and to decide what comes after. What begins as a scientific investigation becomes a race against time—across continents, across centuries, and perhaps across the line separating warning from design. What if the light before sunrise is not the dawn—but a False Dawn? The Sun Rising from the West – False Dawn is a gripping thriller blending archaeology and science fiction—a story of ancient mysteries, modern science, hidden agendas, and humanity’s search for truth at the edge of a changing world.
