Challenge
Make the best of your life on this Earth
You have to learn how to fight from birth
Follow nature's rhythm and rhyming tide
Get clear wisdom, with books ever beside
Cogitate deeply upon the dark and the day light
The alternate rhythm can brighten your sight
And the shifting nature of the seasons is must
As humans, we are bound by future life and past
Challenge yourself, try giving your ever best
And in reaching the highest pinnacle, do invest
That knowledge and lore are the highest conquest
Time is fast...
You have to learn how to fight from birth
Follow nature's rhythm and rhyming tide
Get clear wisdom, with books ever beside
Cogitate deeply upon the dark and the day light
The alternate rhythm can brighten your sight
And the shifting nature of the seasons is must
As humans, we are bound by future life and past
Challenge yourself, try giving your ever best
And in reaching the highest pinnacle, do invest
That knowledge and lore are the highest conquest
Time is fast...

SPILL YOUR INK
Spill your ink on blank page. Express your rage.
Suppression only leads to mental pain.
Without catharsis, art is trapped in cage.
Trauma will stain, as you age.
Gain your stage.
Sage soul smiles.
It's worthwhile to tame your flame. Poetry is perfect for thoughts to drain.
Sane words flow to show feelings have no shame.
Mute charcoal clouds, hail chord sounds.
Tear drop rain.
Brain feels free.
Peace now reigns.
Clear skies bring glee.
Release of burdens cleanse untouched debris.
Suppression only leads to mental pain.

Mighty Mouse
There is an enemy lurking.
She stalks me with quiet paws.
I stand still, focusing on my shallow breathing...
Tears streaming from my soul.
Her growl at my feet, sweat pouring down my neck.
She has had it with me, I keep my head down, my heart beat quiet.
My song bird caged.
My dancing shoes retired.
My laughter reserved.
The child in me lulled to sleep.
I hear them lying to me, I go to speak in objection but her teeth warn me from my own voice.
As I hold the mouse safely in my hand.
You should know, if the mouse goes...I...
She stalks me with quiet paws.
I stand still, focusing on my shallow breathing...
Tears streaming from my soul.
Her growl at my feet, sweat pouring down my neck.
She has had it with me, I keep my head down, my heart beat quiet.
My song bird caged.
My dancing shoes retired.
My laughter reserved.
The child in me lulled to sleep.

You are not Aloneliness Lil ( LilDragonFly )
In the stillness of the night,
When shadows dance and fears take flight,
You are not alone, my sweetheart Lil,
For I am with you till the very end.
In the depths of your despair,
When tears fall like rain without a care,
You are not alone, my dear Lil,
For I am here to wipe away each tear.
In the emptiness of your soul,
When silence echoes and heartache takes its toll,
You are not alone, my love Lil,
For I am here to fill your heart with love.
So hold my hand and let me in,
Together we'll face whatever lies...
When shadows dance and fears take flight,
You are not alone, my sweetheart Lil,
For I am with you till the very end.
In the depths of your despair,
When tears fall like rain without a care,
You are not alone, my dear Lil,
For I am here to wipe away each tear.
In the emptiness of your soul,
When silence echoes and heartache takes its toll,
You are not alone, my love Lil,
For I am here to fill your heart with love.
So hold my hand and let me in,
Together we'll face whatever lies...

The Morning Dew
"seldom did i see the shine on the pine
at dawn's tide, the spell for which i pine"
some last November day from the first morning streaks,i had s strange whim for a mystic sight, as today from here i did see the peeping sun
in such a clear morning effusion, diffusion, shedding a beaming warmth,from the golden East.Such a spreading morning emotion
of belonging to this earth to this life
the Mystical silence sends a pastoral vibe with a whisper of a chilling
yet friendly zephyr, upon where the ancient dolmen...

Survivors
It was a hot afternoon when a big bulk carrier left a harbor on the coast of Bengali bound for Sydney, Australia, with a cargo of scrap iron from ships that once had plowed the seas, an adventure for some, work for others.
Then the sea parted, and the ship fell into a timeless zone where life repeats itself
The cook is making soup and
the captain studies a map of ocean currents
150 years passed, and a convulsion through the zone
the ship was back on the sea surface.
The cook served his soup.
The captain called up the harbor...

Morning Marathons
Surf the waves until the waters settle
Don't blow your top like a steaming kettle
Life'll beat you up and keep you on trial
Judge and jury incarcerating your smile
Traveling for miles on roads of tribulations
Starts erecting dark thoughts full of ideations
Depression's a beast bearing a pitch fork & horns
Genetically afflicting some entities when their born
Worn like scarlet letters that folks'll never be able to see
Branded onto psyches like we've joined Greek fraternities
Stepping on happy emotions like it's dancing to...

In The Valley Between The Hills
There are trees, and birds in my valleys
Every heaven's breath there, is to please
Rocky hills,stretch along flowing wadies
The herds graze the grass at morning breeze
I live in the valley, between the pasture hills
From my place, i hear the sound of the ancient mills
I hear the horses, as they haul the wooden wheels
And the water force from their mouth, as it spills
Then, i perch upon the top of a cedar tree
And throw a bird's glance, with majestic glee
Catch the faint shadow of the thrush on a spree
Up into deep sky,...
Every heaven's breath there, is to please
Rocky hills,stretch along flowing wadies
The herds graze the grass at morning breeze
I live in the valley, between the pasture hills
From my place, i hear the sound of the ancient mills
I hear the horses, as they haul the wooden wheels
And the water force from their mouth, as it spills
Then, i perch upon the top of a cedar tree
And throw a bird's glance, with majestic glee
Catch the faint shadow of the thrush on a spree
Up into deep sky,...

before the end of years
Coming to an End
On the terrace this morning, it is warm,
sun has not
switched on the heaters yet, and wonders if the postie
His brother was sending him chewing tobacco rolled
up in newspapers as this type of tobacco was prohibited
under the EU law.
A cur on the road barks up at him and ignores the dog, but it sits down and waits, sure the man will relent and feed
The dog that had ended up homeless since his owner became ill and returned to Britain
since 1945, when the World War 2 ended, the USA,

Winter Of '94'
I stepped out of the warm car into the bitter cold this morning, and it was like my own personal whirl wind came to chariot my heart through the tree tops, and whisked me instantly to the Blizzard of 94. I literally broke down right there in that parking lot, my heart pounding and tears flooding my eyes. For a split moment, I was a child again, bundled up in red boots that laced all the way to my boney knees, toboggan itching my head from running and sweating while I was playing in the snow, as we climbed about in our ice fortress. You see, my grandpa had spent all day carving huge blocks of...

Well done Omid Scobie. And good on you lad!
By Stanley Collymore
Other than not being readily and
effusively acknowledged as
the actually pathetically
fawning medieval mind-set serfs which
they rather earnestly and keenly, really
do love being seen and classed as by
their monarchical family, and equally
hereditary perceived, superiors; truly
the one other principal thing simply,
which white Britons distinctively do
actually overwhelmingly in tandem
with their non-white bleached skin
House Niggers and noxious Asian
Coconuts that likewise...
