” Ficar no sol é irracional loucura;

Porque nesse brandão dos céus luzente

Falta a razão, se sobra a formosura. “

Federal Jury convicts former NYPD officer involved in Jan. 6 attack – UPI.com

A federal jury needed two hours of deliberations Monday before convicting former NYPD officer Thomas Webster of assaulting D.C. officer Noah Rathbun during the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Webster, who was caught on video swinging a flagpole at Rathbun before tackling him to the ground at the Capitol, faces up to 20 years in prison when he is convicted. He had claimed self-defense, claiming that Rathbun instigated his violent response.

The former member of ex-New York City’s Mayor Michael Bloomberg security detail becomes the fourth person convicted in Jan. 6-related trials prosecuted by Justice Department. He was convicted on five other related charges as well.

We are linked
And our souls will never die
We are bonded forever
You may move to another town
Take a plane to a distant land
That won’t change anything
Any mountain is too high
To annihilate our feelings
There are no waters deep enough
To smother our love
We don’t need bridges to be connected
I may read your mind
And you can guess my silence
We are one spirit in two bodies.

Under the Same Sun #poetry #atozchallenge #tribute

penned in moon dust

moderators, old timers, just starting out

sharing one common thing

the month of April

in some places Spring

writers, poets, students, experts, bloggers

laugh, compose, take pictures, sigh

community for a month

until 2023 it’s goodbye

but wait hold that thought

learned, grew, took awhile

misplaced your pen

found your smile

Each year without fail I meet some amazing people and their writing / blogging is awesome too!

This 2022 is not exception because it is A to Z.

it slowly rose

displayed yellows, orange, reds

setting for another year

It’s incredible to look back at a month and see what has been accomplished as well as the people you have met along the way.

The Awesome Things:

The leadership – always great.

So many great people who participate in the A to Z challenge.

Creativity abounds in each blog

Stretching my personal writing

Would love to see next year:

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

” Os bons vi sempre passar

No mundo graves tormentos;

E para mais me espantar,

Os maus vi sempre nadar

Em mar de contentamentos.

Cuidando alcançar assim

O bem tão mal ordenado,

Fui mau, mas fui castigado.

Assim que, só para mim

Anda o mundo concertado.
