Never Let Go Of Hope
One day you will see that it all has finally come together.
What you have always wished for has finally come to be.
You will look back and laugh at what has passed and you will ask yourself,
"How did I get through all of that?"
Just never let go of hope.
Just never quit dreaming.
And never let love depart from your life.

Anything Is Possible
Believe in Yourself,
and Remember that
Anything Is Possible
Believe in what makes you feel good.
Believe in what makes you happy.
Believe in the dreams you've always wanted to come true,
and give them every chance to.
Life holds no promises
as to what will come your way.
You must search for your own ideals
and work towards reaching them.
Life makes no guarantees as to what you'll have.
It just gives you time to make choices
and to take chances
and to discover whatever secrets might come your way.
If you are willing to take the opportunities you are given
and utilize the abilities you have,
you will constantly fill your life
with special moments and unforgettable times.
No one knows the mysteries of life or its ultimate meaning,
but for those who are willing
to believe in their dreams and in themselves,
life is a precious gift in which anything is possible.

Reaching Your Dream Takes Courage
Courage is admitting that you're afraid and facing that fear directly. It's being strong enough to ask for help and humble enough to accept it.
Courage is standing up for what you believe in without worrying about the opinions of others. It's following your own heart, living your own life, and settling for nothing less than the best for yourself.
Courage is daring to take a first step, a big leap, or a different path. It's attempting to do something that no one has done before and all others thought impossible.
Courage is keeping heart in the face of disappointment and looking at defeat not as an end but as a new beginning. It's believing that things will ultimately get better even as they get worse.
Courage is being responsible for your own actions and admitting your own mistakes without placing blame on others. It's relying not on others for your success, but on your own skills and efforts.
Courage is refusing to quit even when you're intimidated by impossibility. It's choosing a goal, sticking with it, and finding solutions to the problems.
Courage is thinking big, aiming high, and shooting far. It's taking a dream and doing anything, risking everything, and stopping at nothing to it make it a reality.

Today's Dreams Are Tomorrow's Successes
Don't be afraid of high hopes
or plans that seem to be out of reach.
Life is meant to be experienced,
and every situation allows for
learning and growth.
Motivation is a positive starting point,
and action places you on a forward path.
A dream is a blueprint
of a goal not yet achieved;
the only difference between the two
is the effort involved in attaining
what you hope to accomplish.
Let your mind and heart urge you on;
allow the power of your will
to lead you to your destination.
Don't count the steps ahead;
just add up the total
of steps already covered,
and multiply it by
faith, confidence, and endurance.
Always remember that
for those who persist,
today's dreams are transformed
into tomorrow's successes.
| courage |
Believe In Yourself And Your Dreams Will Come True
Know what you can and want to do in life.
Set goals for yourself and work hard to achieve them.
Strive to have fun every day.
Use your creativity as a means of expressing your feelings.
Be sensitive in viewing the world.
Develop a sense of confidence.
Be honest with yourself and with others.
Follow your heart and adhere to your own truths.
Know that the more you give the more you will receive.
Believe in yourself and your dreams will come true.

Take These Thoughts With You On Your Journey To Your Dreams
Don't ever forget that you are unique. Be your best self and not an imitation of someone else.
Find your strength and use them in a positive way. Don't listen to those who ridicule the choices you make.
Travel the road that you have chosen and don't look back with regret. You have to take chances to make your dreams happen.
Remember that there is plenty of time to travel another road - and still another - in your journey through life.
Take the time to find the route that is right for you. You will learn something valuable from every trip you take, so don't be afraid to make mistakes.
Tell yourself that you're okay just the way you are. Make friends who respect your true self.
Take the time to be alone, too, so you can know just how terrific your own company can be.
Remember that being alone doesn't always mean being lonely; it can be a beautiful experience of finding your creativity, your heartfelt feelings, and the calm and quiet peace deep inside you.
Don't ever forget that you are special and you have within you the ability to make your dreams come true.
| courage |
Go After Your Dreams
You're good, but you're going to be great.
You're the best, but you're going to get better.
Sometimes the paths we take are long and hard, but remember: those are always the ones that lead to the most beautiful views.
Challenges come along inevitably: how you respond to them determines who you are - deep down inside - and everything you're going to be.
Increase the chances of reaching your goals by working at them gradually. The very best you can do is all that is asked of you.
Realize that you are capable of working miracles of your own making. Remember that opportunities have a reason for knocking on your door, and the right ones are there for the taking.
You don't always have to win, but you do need to know what it takes to be a winner.
It's up to you to find the key that unlocks the door to a more fulfilling life.
Understand that increased difficulty brings you nearer to the truth of how to survive it - and get beyond it.
Cross your bridges.
Meet your challenges.
Reach out for your dreams, and bring them closer and closer to your heart.
Get rid of the "if only's" and get on with whatever you need to do to get things right.
Go after what you want in life, with all the blessings of all the people who care about you. And find out what making your wishes come true really feels like.

The Serenity Prayer
God grant me the Serenity
to accept the things
I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And Wisdom to know the difference. | courage |
Have Courage
life is not just waking up one morning and saying ok I want this to happen,
it's about getting out there and going for it. . . .
life is full of surprises,
here, there and everywhere,
you never know where you will end up,
or who you will end up with,
you just have to trust your faith and keep God close.
never say never cause you know you can do it,
never say later do it right now,
never let people bring you down,
they will do anything to watch you fall,
so keep your head up and your heart strong,
and then my dear you can never go wrong.

Blood red,
Shing evily,
Silently laughing at my pain.
He enjoys it,
No...He loves it, The pain he makes others feel.
He does not speak,
But I know when I feel his eyes piercing mine,
He is laughing inside.
I shiver in fear,
When his eyes,
Come near.
It is true im scared,
Of his eyes and him,
His eyes tell the things he does not.
His eyes,
Blood red,
Tourment me. | fear |
Untamed
Sitting in a corner so scared and afraid,
he's standing there yelling at me,
and he's the one to blame,
Marks across my face,
From where he had hit me,
People always say that I’ve got it easy.
Bruises on my back,
The blood courses through my veins,
In this dark old room,
There is something untamed.
Scared to say a word,
Just one word to come out,
For no one knows what happens when the beast has made his rounds.
People always stare at me,
I now know what they say,
For all these scars left on my wrist,
The past has been revealed.
I do it one last time,
So no blood runs through these veins

Harry, I'm Scared
I had always been the odd one out, in this world of people who seemed to be better than me. I could always hope that one day I would be accepted, but now a days, that hope has turned into misery.
I turned to my best friend and I said; "Harry, I'm scared, I can't do it, they would hurt me if I said it."
He just looked at me and frowned and said; "You need to learn to stand your ground, Teagan, you're a tough girl you're a fighter, who cares about the unwanted fire."
When Harry said unwanted fire, he meant the heated arguments between my parents.
"All you need to do is be brave, and you'll be on your way."
"But I'm not brave like you Harry!"
"You are in your own way."
I went home that night befuddled by what Harry had said, it didn't explain anything, it made no sense in my head.
My mum saw me from outside, and came out shouting about the time of night.
"Do you know what time it is? I was so worried." she would say, but it was only an act, I knew she didn't care, she continues to tell me what a waste of space I am, and that she wasted her money when she adopted me.
"I don't care." I said, as I walked past her, I aimed for the door, and next thing you know, I get slapped in the face, it stings for awhile and I turn around, to see another frown.
"Now listen to me, do as I say, I know what's right, and from this day, you will not stay out late, you will come home early, you are not the type of girl who wanders the street!"
Me being the smart arse I am had to reply which earned me another slap and a Punch from behind.
"Technically, it is not day, it is night, so your instruction means nothing what so ever, now leave me be!"
Now, my story lays in the hands of the sequel of my soul, and even though you're dead now Harry, here's my message to you, "Harry, I'm scared, I am sorry, but I cannot be brave, when I'm filled with worry, I know your story, but you don't know mine, but I think it's time I told you, I was adopted, I was raped, and abused, my parents hurt me in so many ways, these memories will stay with me to my dying days, Harry I miss you, I don't know what to do, I know what your would say to me now, you would say; "Yep, your screwed."
I love you Harry, you will always be my best friend, no one will ever replace you, you were right, I can be brave, in my own way, by telling this short story of mine, and publishing it for the world to see, I hope your proud of me. xx

Escape
Trees, trees, trees
Branches, sticks, leaves
Whipping, gashing, slashing at my arms
I can't get away no matter how fast I run
Tripping, falling, crawling on the floor
Ragged cuts, tattered clothes, jagged breathing as I start to slow
My eyes are heavy, my vision blurred
Distant images start to stir
He's right behind me, he's catching up
I have to keep moving but my legs have had enough
Getting dizzy about to pass out, a distant figure starts to stand out
A distant scream, a whispered plea, I can't believe it came from me
Pulse is racing, a feeling of hands, a gentle hush as I'm helped to stand
It's him, he's caught me, please strength don't leave me yet
Let me be anything but his sullied pet
I have to leave, I have to get away, I fall to my knees and let my head sway
Stopping he stares at me and gives a mirrored laugh
Then he reaches for me as I start to move back
I'm to slow, he's to fast, I can't get away, he's taking me back
I can't let this happen, I must react
Heads to fuzzy, I'm getting to weak
I'm stumbling over my own feet
One chance, a pull, a twist, a po+A71p and a moan
I'm not the one with a broken bone
I'm still running, he's still coming
My strength's about to give out
Dead end, cliffs end, water and rocks below
Tell me, if you had a choice which way would you go?
| fear |
Stay Strong
I have this illness
that I've suffered from for so long
and I don't know how
but I've got to find a way to stay strong,
I wish I could get over it really quick
because it's making me go insane
and it hurts when people pick
It just causes so much pain
I just wish I could stay strong
It really bothers me
because I don't know what's wrong
I'm telling myself not to cry
but it's so hard to try
there's got to be a way for me to stay strong
As the days go by
I feel worse and worse
so many things have gone wrong
and it's just so hard to stay strong
I've got to cry
so as the tears run down my eyes
I realized I don't have the strength
to stay strong
| fear |
Fear
I'm so tired of all the pain,
Just please let it rain,
So I can hide my tears,
So no one can see my fears,
That are going to keep haunting,
For the rest of my life,
Just want it all to disappear,
So I don't have to deal with my fears,
Just want it all to go away,
I just hope I can be okay,
I'm so tired of running,
I'm so sick of hiding,
All my pain is building up,
It all just hurts way too much,
I'm so tired of all the pain,
Just please let it rain,
So I can hide all my tears,
So no one can tell I am full of fear | fear |
It
I'm running out of breath
I can't believe its so hard to breath
My hearts pounding in my chest
As I wonder if IT found me
I hide under the covers and pretend I'm invisible
Then I turn around and IT is still there
I scream and pray IT would just go away
I'm running and running but IT is
Right behind me
I've been running from this thing for 5 years now
I stop running and decide to face my fears
Once and for all
As I stand face to face to what has caused me
So much misery and pain
I stop
I look deeper and deeper into IT's eyes
Than I realize that IT is me
| fear |
Mirror
I want you to have it all
My soul, my mistakes, my heart,
You have the key to my innermost thoughts
Slowly unlocking every door
That shades you from me, from what I don't want you to see
MY TRUE COLORS
Running away from you, from the one who
relates, listens ,and appreciate me for who
I AM
Chasing you away from my heart, willing to feel lonely
Just so you wont have a way to hurt me.
Constantly chasing you in circles never knowing were it began
and were it will end
You've unlocked everything, you've seen
my fears, my secrets, my joy,
Only one door left as you open it all you see
is a MIRROR, my biggest fear
facing fear itself, my mistakes
MYSELF | fear |
Im Sorry For Me
We have been friends for about a year,
And this is honestly my worst fear.
I'm scared of our friendship ending,
I think it is, and my heart is mending.
I'm sorry if I did something wrong,
I'm sorry if I wasn't strong.
I'm sorry that our friendship didn't work out,
But most of all, I'm sorry that I gave you doubt.
I didn't mean to be mean at all,
I didn't mean to give you a fall.
I just wanted our friendship to work out,
I didn't want you to scream and shout.
I just fear you're going to be a popular one day,
I fear that and if you do, I'm going to have to pay.
You don't know what it's like to cry yourself to sleep,
And this whole time I've really been hurting underneath.
Anyway, I just hope you see the sky not cloudy but starry,
And all I wanted to say was I'm sorry
| fear |
Dear Father, Why I'm Sorry
Dear Father,
I'm sorry I disappointed you
I'm sorry I made you so mad
I'm sorry I wasn't a great daughter
I'm sorry you where a horrible dad
I'm sorry I let you break me
I'm sorry I walked away
I'm sorry I couldn't take it
I'm sorry is all that I can say
I'm sorry you where always to busy
I'm sorry I pushed you out of my life
I'm sorry I wasn't important as your new wife
I'm sorry you always made up lies
I'm sorry I hated you
I'm sorry you never cared
I'm sorry I cut your name in my wrist
I'm sorry I acted like I wasn't pissed
I'm sorry I wasn't your favorite kid
I'm sorry for all of this
I'm sorry I'm acting just like you
I'm sorry for all the things you put me through
I'm sorry I went to the hospital
I'm sorry you came to see me and I told you leave
I'm sorry I said you meant something when you didn't
I'm sorry I was a fool
I'm sorry that my blood wasn't enough to show you
I'm sorry that I tried so hard to be enough for you
I'm sorry I wasn't perfect
I'm sorry I told you that you never where there
I'm sorry that your gone
I'm sorry that I spent my time to hold on
To a lost cause, because I knew you where never there
I'm sorry that this pain was to much for me to bear
I'm sorry I'm dead inside and you'll never see
I'm sorry that all the things you put me through did this to me
Love your daughter, Sara

Don't Call Me It
Say what you want
Though I hear what you say
I hear it's gay
I hear it's a whore
I hear it's evil
I hear it's a demon
It's a girl
It's a boy
It's a witch
It's a murderer
Say what you want
Though I hear what you say
Say what you want
BUT DON'T CALL ME IT!!!

I Hate You
I longed for the nightmare to end,
I hurt for the long years passed,
I feel for the ones like me, but
I hate all the ones like YOU!!

Love is my Sin
Love is my sin and thy dear virtue hate,
Hate of my sin, grounded on sinful loving:
O, but with mine compare thou thine own state,
And thou shalt find it merits not reproving;
Or, if it do, not from those lips of thine,
That have profaned their scarlet ornaments
And seal'd false bonds of love as oft as mine,
Robb'd others' beds' revenues of their rents.
Be it lawful I love thee, as thou lovest those
Whom thine eyes woo as mine importune thee:
Root pity in thy heart, that when it grows
Thy pity may deserve to pitied be.
If thou dost seek to have what thou dost hide,
By self-example mayst thou be denied! | hate |
Hate You But I Love You:
I hate the way you tell me you love me
When your with her
I hate when you tell me you miss me
I hate the way you make me think of you
I was getting over you
But you had to call
And tell me you still love me
I don't wanna wait
I don't wanna be played
I want to be over you
You give me more and more pain
I just wanna scream
I hate you for doing this to me
I hate how I still love you
I wish I would stop loving you
I am that kind of girl that loves you but hates you
My heart wants to hate you
Not Love you anymore
It hurts way to much
I wanna hate you. | hate |
Hate
I hate myself for this
I hate this person I've become
I hate who I am and who I thought I would never be
I hate my father for making me this way
I hate the selfishness I have now become
I hate the endless pain I put people through
I hate the way I hide myself in this pain
I hate the crazy world I'm living in called my life
I hate when my friends suffer because of my problems
I hate the fact that everything I've worked so hard not to be is what defines me
I hate that people cant see who I really am
I hate that my heart is broken with no one to put it back together
| hate |
So Says the Boss
I'm the boss
You do not cross
The king of my domain
For the day
No work, all play
Is found in my refrain
Love to eat
The prime of meat
So sad 'til I get some
'Tis so sweet
And such a treat
Boy, they can be so dumb
Hate to dress
Give me caress
No bother with the slime
Have to dig
In it real big
Archaeology time
When I'm beat
I have a seat
Take my favorite spot
No compete
It's so complete
Out of my royal cot!
Here to stay
I love to lay
Napping is not a farse
I'm a dog
Who's a couch hog
So move your big fat arse!

Let get laughter way out of yourself
Let get laughter way out of yourself
Make the happy sound awake
Laughter magic and enchanting
Don't sustain it in your soul
Let yourself go into joy
May it help forever
People from wherever
Getting circled together
Laughter can be a kind of help
A worthy enemy to distress
Rise this laughter so dear
To be heard by human ears
Make it go on around the world
Little chuckles happy giggles
So many ways of laughing
Don't fear the others comment
Let laughter way out of yourself
Be assured laughter is magic
Open your heart to this very
Very special kind of sound
Let get laughter way out of yourself
Make the happy sound awake
| joy |
LAUGHTER - LAUGHTER
laughter - laughter here I come
to make my friend smile and calm
jump and jump to the left to the right
thru the day time and night
laughter - laughter here I am
to make true all the sweetest dreams
like my friend always has in sleep
thru the very beautiful night
that will never skip
laughter - laughter here we are
my friend and I are blab - blab - blab
and we are happy and careless
cause the better future are waiting for us
laughter - laughter, who are you?
WHAT! you don't recognize me?
I am sorry, I thought I know you
but just let it be
because a real friendship doesn't care who we are

Giggles, Laughter and Stabbing Stares
Giggles, laughter and stabbing stares,
It would kill them to be nice,
It would hurt them to be kind,
Giggles, laughter and stabbing stares,
The notes are being passed around,
They don’t see, no one cares,
Giggles, laughter and stabbing stares,
Tearing at all I’ve built up,
But it won’t work anymore,
Giggles, laughter and stabbing stares,
What they don’t know is,
I just don’t care,
Giggles, laughter and stabbing stares,
Every one is doing it,
But I just sit and laugh,
Giggles, laughter and stabbing stares,
It’s so funny they think I care,
They are stupid to think I do,
Giggles, laughter and stabbing stares,
I laugh and laugh
Because they don’t see that no one cares,
Giggles, laughter and stabbing stares…
Giggles, laughter and stabbing stares…
Giggles, laughter and stabbing stares…

A Child's Laughter
One of a kind this cheerful sound
A child's laughter wherever it's found
From the giggling of a baby in a playpen
To the laughter of a toddler again and again
A child's laughter can bring a smile
To one who hasn't done so in such a long while
I know because that one was me
Until my daughter's laugh set mine free
A child's laughter so gleeful and pure
An innocence adults miss for sure
Laughter that can bring back the past
And memories of a youth that flew by so fast
A child's laughter can bring out the best
Of most any man when he's depressed
Cause his spirit that's fall to soar
Until at last he laughs once more
| joy |
Love, Laughter, And You
Three things that make my life complete
Are love, laughter, and you, my sweet
The laughter has lasted since day one
Loving you darling, has been so much fun
Whether it's giggles at the kitchen table
Or all out laughter wherever we're able
Each and every laugh, a symbol of our love
You're my everything, all I ever dreamt of
Our love, now that's a bit more serious
Shining through when our laughter is delirious
Starting the day with love's tenderness
Saying goodnight with a sweet caress
Love, laughter, and of course you.
You bring into my life the other two
From the day we met, and for every single day
Love and laughter in our lives will stay
| joy |
Live with Laughter
</>So much time passess
We have moments of saddness
At other times it seems like we are passed depressed
One thing will keep us together
Its the sound of joy
Laughter from a little kid
The sound of there high pitch laughter
The laughter at every new thing they see
Laughter makes our day better
Laughter makes our life worth living
Nothing can make you feel better rather than laughter
So make someone laugh make yourself laugh and live life
| joy |
Laughter
Laughter is a pleasant sound, it spreads joy all around
Whether you're young or old, laughter can be like
Magic to our souls, whenever we're feeling sad
Laughter can sustain us so that things don't seem
Quite so bad, if we give into laughter, it can be like
A cure for something that seems impossible to endure
So any time your spirits need a lift fill yourself
With laughter and you will find, a much happier
Person with a peaceful frame of mind
| joy |
YOUR LAUGHTER
YOUR LAUGHTER
Your laughter,
a blossoming bud,
eyes like peacock,
vivacious, sweet your laughter,
what are the feelings,
on your faces,
your laughter,
like a melodious rain,
creates sensations in the heart,
your laughter
benumbs the eyes
i pray,
you carry on laughing
| joy |
Me and Laughter Together Always
Sometimes I laugh out loud
Showing you that I could care less what you have to say
All that matters is that my feelings are hidden
Hiding from those who judge me and those who love me
And Laughter helps me do just that
Laughter is my better half
Laughter stands with me when I’m bored
Laughter comforts me when I want to cry
He keeps me company through grief and through happiness
For better or worse, in sickness and health, through thick and thin
I love Laughter and Laughter loves me back
And yet you don’t know why Laughter makes Me
Look deep into my eyes when I laugh and you’ll see
You will find all the hate, all the pain, and all the hurt
But if that’s all you see
You’re not looking deep enough
Look past the tears that I won’t allow to flow
Look past the memories that I can’t let go of
And when you see through all the hate, all the pain and all the hurt
You'll find Me
I cover Me up with Laughter
There are none who can see the true Me
They can’t see through my Laughter
And if you should happen to see Me
I won’t need Laughter to hide anymore
Because I can cry on your shoulder
I can smile and enjoy you company without a single sound
Only then, Laughter won’t be my protector
Until then, it’s Me and Laughter together always
I hide my feelings through Laughter
So if you’re trying to figure out what I’m thinking,
Laugh with me and you will then see...-Me

THE LAUGHTER THERAPY
(I)
Every morning the ritual is the same, -
I say my prayers and take His name;
As I settle down to read the papers, –
About our politician’s famous ‘blame game’!
It is then I always hear, loud peals of laughter
from our adjacent park,
A man dedicated to laughter therapy,
With his loud guffaw and reverberating bark!
Trying to resolve this laughing mystery, -
I read several articles about Laughter Therapy!
(II)
Amongst all created things and living beings,
Man alone suffers deeply in his body, mind,
and soul;
With peals of laughter he must suppress his tears,
To balance this life and control!
Yet during those rare and supreme happy moments
of life, -
Tears are seen to well-up in our eyes!
Laughter gets mingled with our tears, -
I wonder why? !
Perhaps laughter and tears are two sides,
Of the same coin of our worldly life!
While our lacrymal glands perform this feat, -
As laughter and tears join hands to make this
life complete!
(III)
While hearty, non-ridiculing and connecting
laughter does provide,
Physiological, psychological and spiritual
benefits - on hindsight!
Laughter brings a twinkle in our eyes, destroying
our conservative reputation;
Improving our cardiovascular flexibility, increasing
our spiritual quotient!
Laughter like internal jogging, gives us an internal
massaging;
Performed both silently and rapidly beyond imagining!
Revitalizing those unexplored internal crannies –
all automatic!
Far better than all our know antibiotics!
Laughter a tranquilizer without side effects,
Releases our pent-up tension relaxing us instead!
(IV)
An optimist always laughs to forget, while a pessimist
forgets to laugh,
My man in the park is perhaps an optimist,
Who has embraced this therapy as an art!
Or perhaps that man laughs daily at the frailties of a
meaningless life,
In this life of absurdities as he adapts himself to
survive!
This laughter therapy is a tranquilizer both healthy
and free,
Perhaps that man in the park is laughing at both you
and me!
Our life becomes a tragedy for those who only feel!
But a comedy of laughter, if you pause a while to think!
So let us try to make others laugh while we try to
control our tears,
Laughing is a healing process and drives away our
fears!
Let us make a New Year’s resolution, making laughter
our altruistic mission;
Coupled with a loving and caring heart all true, -
Let this laughter as a therapy - benefit both me and
you!

There once was a boy named Foople Dee Doo
Foople Dee Doo wanted to eat something new,
So he went in the kitchen and tried some pea soup
Then ran to the toilet and threw up the goop
Then Foople Dee Doo felt sick
So he called the doctor named Mick
Mick said he was fine,
Then went home to dine,
On mac & cheese which he ate with a stick
The doctor named Mick had a wife
Who pricked herself with a knife
The blood oozed out,
The wife started to shout,
Mick sighed and said "Get a life!"
The wife's name was Mary
She had a son named Larry
She worried about him day and night,
Until they got in a great big fight,
In the end she gave him to his aunt named Terry
Larry met a girl who said she liked puffins
But he thought she said she liked muffins
So he went to the store,
And there were more,
Muffins than he'd ever seen
The girl's name was Tasha
But she liked to go by Sasha
She really loved puffins
But a boy bought her some muffins
And she started to love those instead
Larry and Sasha got married
Which they had to have slightly tarried
They had a baby boy
The first word he said was "toy"
He later grew up to be a prince
The prince was always sad
Some people thought he was mad
Then one day he saw a girl
Who looked like she was about to hurl
He sat her down and gave her a crown, then said, "This will be the one I marry!"
From that day on
The prince never did frown
For he had a lovely wife,
Who never pricked herself with a knife,
And they lived happily ever after
THE END!

The Mental Dental Viva
A viva examination was almost done,
All the students had left but one,
This dental student was taking ages,
Because he couldn't answer a single question asked by the sages,
Frustrated by the long wait,
The examiner asked in haste,
"What would be the biggest problem we would face,
If nobody had teeth in the entire human race?"
He expected "chewing", "speech" or "aesthetics",
The question was so easy, it made the other students sick,
To hear the answer he leaned a little closer to the student,
Who simply smiled and answered "Unemployment"

Idiot Box-N-Couch Potato
Idiot box - n - couch potato
Man invented TV, pet named idiot box.
TV is too clever and cunning to be an idiot.
With its little remote, holds the family under its spell.
So what?? If the family becomes couch potato.
Libraries, stadiums, playgrounds wear a deserted look.
To be informed, watch sports, movies or news on TV.
What's better than our own cozy, cool living room with the idiot (?) Box.
Theaters lose thrill; revenue lost to idiot box(?)
Movie halls get converted to malls.
Hail idiot box!!!
This small box is a shrewd robber.
Robs money for coming home.
Highly fussy the idiot is; needs a special unit to stay.
Robs children of their valuable time.
Precious study, play, leisure hours are in its pocket!!!
Senior members are no exception; medicines and exercises are well forgotten.
Every member succumbs to the idiot's charm.
Pin drop silence prevails.
Jaws dropped, wives watch soaps, weep with emotional scenes.
Men folk, so serious faced, watch world news as if,
World's problems are on their not-so-strong shoulders.
Children watch cartoons with bursts of laughter,
With the mother shouting in the background.
Buffets replace dine-togethers;
Dining table belongs to bygone era.
With the plate in the hand, oblivious to the contents,
Whole family ogles at TV...oops...I am sorry...idiot box..
Husbands, no longer receive warm welcome by a tight hug or least of least,
A sweet smile, after the day's hard work.
Engrossed are their beloveds in some cookery show, movie or whatever.
Flirting with idiot box is in top priority.
No tea, no coffee; poor husbands are left fuming.
Night sets in; hubbys are in full control of remote!!!
Every dog (oops.... Sorry) has its day.!!!???
Idiot box is now his girlfriend.
Surfing news channels is his passion.
Intelligent, informed flirt.
Wives and kids give looks; only if these looks could kill???
Husbands will be in urns!!!
Entire family is in its pocket or is it box???
Enchanted and smitten is the family, mesmerized by its spell.
This spell transforms the family in to couch potatoes.
Couch potatoes become couch pumpkins.
They hog while watching or watch while hogging,
Is best left unanswered.
Gymnasiums, health clubs, diet counselors flourish.
Adhering to "make hay while the sun shines".
Man invented idiot box.
Idiot box invented couch potato.
Couch potato loves idiot dearly.
Misplaced love???!!!
Idiot box can never be true love.
Whoever holds the remote, it is theirs.
An incorrigible flirt.
Poor, poor couch potatoes,
They are fooled and made idiots
By
None other than the idiot box.
Ha.........ha.........ha.

Fecal Farm
My horse is there in front of me
Clip-cloppin' down the road.
He stops and flips his tail straight up
And drops another load.
My cows dump in the meadow,
My chickens foul their coop,
And flies are buzzin' 'round and 'round
Eatin' all that poop.
The sheep are out there bleatin'...
I gotta' get a grip!
The stupid things are standin'
Knee-deep in their dip!
I swear on this here farm
There's every barnyard species,
And each and every one of them
Is makin' tons of feces.
I'm tired of smellin' livestock.
I'd like to take a nap.
But I can't sleep 'cause I dream of
Hogs wallowin' in their crap.
Now my wife is in the kitchen
Cookin' soup du jour,
But nothin' smells real good to me;
I'm surrounded by manure.

Will you still love
Once upon a time, you were so good to me,
and you were proud, you wanted everyone to see,
and I did shine like a penny that is new,
or a brand new dime, I think I meant the world to you....
Will you still love me when my carburator's busted?
When my radiator springs a leak or two?
Will you let the other fella repossess me,
just because what's under my hood isn't new?
Will you still want me when my oil pan starts drippin?
Or if ah'll need a lot of anti-freeze?
Will you dump me if I get a little rusty?
Oh tell me baby will you still love me?
It's been a while since you took me for a spin,
or touched me like, you did way back when,
it makes me think, that somewhere down the road,
you're not gonna want me much after ah get old...
Will you still love me when my carburator's busted?
when my radiator springs a leak or two?
will you let the other fella repossess me,
just because what's under my hood isn't new?
Will you still want me when my oil pan starts drippin?
Or if ah'll need a lot of anti-freeze?
will you dump me if I get a little rusty?
Oh tell me baby , will you still love me?

Devote Your Life to Money
Oh, money, the life-giving juice of society!
It brings us its blessings of every variety,
It softens the blows that lifetime delivers,
It favors the brave and it crowns achievers.
It renders us free from oppression by jerks,
From mockings, and putdowns, and scoldings,and smirks.
It lets us buy tickets and travel away
From where we're not welcome but are forced to just stay.
From creditors' letters and big ugly urbs,
From all that don't matter, from stuff that disturbs,
To wide sandy beaches and azure blue waters,
Away from the smoke of ten million motors.
With money it all starts to fall into place-
No longer respect is what you have to chase.
It follows you like an afternoon shadow
Thank money, it makes you a prince from a padow.
With money, all people will treat you much better,
As you are no longer society's debtor.
Sweet smiles on you they will now bestow,
Obsequious looks in their eyes then will glow.
And women forgetting your age and your weight,
Your looks and your height and your bald, shining pate,
Will wink and remark how handsome you are
For, in their minds, you are now a star.
Oh, how pathetic society is!
A "Miss" is now where there used to be "Ms."
For quickly they learned that you've got all this dough,
And then they appear from above and below.
For freedom, for joy and enjoyment of senses,
Don't waste precious time chasing empty pretenses.
Just line up your pockets with luscious green money
And soon you'll be hugging a cute Playboy bunny.
As long as you're here on our green Earth,
And want to be living in freedom and mirth,
Devote your existence to dollar and pound
For cash makes the world go smoothly around.

Wet And Wild
I left the city a while back now and came to the mountain top,
I parked me combie in the main street, and said, "Yeah, this is where I'll stop".
I'll be seventy-five next birthday, a woman who dives into life,
I missed the hazy hippy years, I think I was someone's wife.
I've changed the way I wear me clothes, no granny prints for me,
A sarong and sandals will do me fine, and dreadlocks wild and free.
I've dispensed with wearin' undies 'cause I want to explore meself,
I burnt the bra long ago and put me bloomers on the shelf.
So, I came up to this magical place to practice me feminine wiles,
I'll not dwell on the years gone past or the fact that I've got piles.
So I sat in a sidewalk café sipping on herbal tea,
I saw him comin' a long way off and shook me dreadlocks free.
I drew the sarong up above me knees, I know he saw me fringe,
'Cause he sat right down in front of me, and said, "My spiritual name is Quinge",
I said, "I'm a mountain woman. Are you a mountain man?",
A grin split his face from ear to ear and we began to make a plan.
He said, "I think you're very sexy", and me fringe began to flutter,
"So when shall we get down to it?" was all that I could utter.
"With or without sugar?", he stirred his tea and asked of me,
"With or without teeth?" I said, my thoughts advanced, you see.
He seemed shocked at my direct reply but I call a spade a spade,
"If you intend to play around with me you'd better sharpen ya blade."
So Quinge and me got on with it, I taught him a trick or two,
Over fifty don't mean a thing, I know just what to do,
Wisdom and experience, no games and no bullshit
Is what the years have taught to me and now I'm full of it.
Yeah, I'm just a mountain woman who has a lot of life to live,
I'm just a mountain woman with a lotta love to give.

The Godfather
An Italian family that lives near me
had a welcome addition to their family
And for miles around with vino and grins
happy folk celebrated the birth of twins.
So proudly their father named Anthony -
well he was Italian, what else could it be?
Gave serious thought to who he would rather
honour his family by being Godfather.
Though he'd lived in Australia all of his days
still he respected the old country's ways.
Standing beside his new babies asleep,
he thought of the custom he wanted to keep.
The honour in store could go to no other,
The choice of tradition was Bruno, his brother.
Bruno, of course, he had Italian blood too,
with pride in his heart knew the things he must do.
He gathered the forms; saw all was in order;
to register the births just like he oughta
And he felt like a king around ten feet tall
as he fronted the man at the local town hall.
He said he was there to register the twins
"And now I'm an uncle," he said between grins.
The man at the counter, a typical Norm,
said, "Well let's see what you've done with these forms ...."
He looked at the forms and said, "Don't play games!
Do this thing properly! You've left out their names.
I'll fill it in then you can leave me in peace.
What do you call the girl?" Bruno said, "Denise!"
As Norm looked up you might think he approved.
There's even a remote chance he was moved.
He said, "Did the boy get called something too?"
Bruno replied, "Of course! He's da nephew!"

What's So Funny?
There was a tall man from Quebec,
Who wrapped his legs around his neck,
And then he forgot,
How to undo the knot,
And now, he's an absolute wreck!
And then...
Roses are red,
Delphiniums are blue,
Your father is tall,
What happened to you?
The limerick and play with thought
Tickle the funny bone you know,
And the best part is knowing naught,
That the bone is at the elbow!
Then, "what's so funny?", I ask,
Is it all in image and sound?
Tell me while in another I bask,
And enjoy vision profound.

Teenage Princess
I know how it is to need money--
As much as I can get;
My teenager goes to the mall,
And I go into debt.
Most kids' first words are "Ma-ma,"
She said "Vi-sa" with a smile;
She has a black belt in shopping,
And a package from every aisle! | joy |
How to Paint A Wall
While I went off to work one day,
She decided to paint the wall.
And when I came back home that night,
She was curled into a ball.
Her eyes were closed, she was breathing hard,
Her hair was very wet.
From her head to the tips of her pretty toes,
She was covered all in sweat.
She was wrapped in a jacket made of down,
With a fur coat on top of that.
The wall was glowing with new, fresh paint;
On the floor, the paint can sat.
"Sweetheart!" I cried, with a worried look,
"Are you all right, my dear?"
She lazily opened her lovely eyes,
And smiled from ear to ear.
"I knew I could do it," she said with a grin;
"I followed the paint can notes.
It clearly said 'For best results,
Be sure to put on two coats.'"

Golf Chat
Three old men on the golf course,
(Each had trouble hearing well)
Were playing a round on a breezy day,
When one blew over and fell.
"Windy, isn't it?" said one of them,
While helping the other to rise.
"No, it's Thursday," said the second man.
And they walked off to exercise.
The third man had listened intently;
Now he chimed in, with good cheer;
As he followed the others, he called out,
"So am I. Let's have a beer!" | joy |
Wolves and Liars
My five year-old-son, he lies a lot,
And I wanted it to end,
So I told him about the boy who cried "wolf!"
Hoping he would comprehend.
"He kept crying 'wolf!' when there was no wolf,"
I told my son, whom I adore.
"When the wolf came to eat him, he called for help,
But no one listened anymore."
My son's eyes grew wide; It looked like he got it;
My heart was all aglow.
But he dashed my hopes when he nodded and said,
"I was eaten by a wolf once, you know."

Too Careful
I don't believe in taking excess risks,
But a person can be excessively careful, too.
A friend of mine checks every detail twice;
He's the most meticulous man I ever knew.
We went to the copy store the other day;
I thought we'd be a few minutes, and then be done.
But he counted all his copies several times,
And then proceeded to proofread every one!

Poodle Insurance
A life insurance salesman
Was talking to a wife:
"What will you get if your husband dies,
You know...at the end of his life."
The woman thought and thought some more,
And then she scratched her noodle.
"Well, I guess, you know, with my husband gone,
I’d probably get a poodle."

Seven Foot Lunch
Three genteel ladies went lunching
At a sophisticated hotel.
Their elevator door opened;
They gasped, and their faces fell.
A seven-foot man was inside,
With an intimidating expression.
They got in anyway;
They were the very souls of discretion.
"Sit!" the man yelled, and they sat,
In their luncheon finery,
They went up; then the door slid aside;
The man left, abashedly.
His dog had been behind him;
At lunch they got a note.
The basketball star paid their bill;
"My apologies, and my treat," he wrote.

Cop Contest
A dispute among three kinds of cops,
CIA, FBI, LAPD:
Who can catch bad guys the quickest?
We'll set up a contest and see.
A rabbit was set loose in the trees;
"We'll get him first," they all said.
They gathered up all of their gear,
And into the forest they sped.
The CIA with informants,
Questions animals and plants on its list,
And after four months investigation,
Concludes rabbits do not exist.
The FBI searches and searches,
But can't find a single clue.
After three weeks they burn down the forest,
Killing the poor bunny, too.
The LAPD takes an hour;
Solving crimes fast is their habit.
Their perp is a badly bruised cougar,
Shouting, "Whatever you say! I'm a rabbit!" | joy |
Thank God For Plumbers
Two old friends met on the street,
Hadn't talked in many a year;
"How's your family,?" asked this dear old friend,
"I'd really like to hear."
"George has a Master's in literature,"
The other said, with pride,
"And Mary's a grad in modern art,
Her career she has yet to decide."
"And How's Willy," the first friend kindly asked,
While the other displayed defeat;
"Oh, Willy's a plumber," she sighed, hanging her head,
"But without him, we'd be out on the street." | joy |

Two Beers
Larry came into my bar
Every day to drink two beers.
"My brother’s dying; one’s for him,"
He said, his eyes full of tears.
Each day it was the same,
Two beers and then he’d go,
One for his brother, one for him,
He’s sad but sweet, this schmo.
One day he orders just one.
His brother’s dead, I’m thinking.
I asked him, but he replied,
"No, it’s me; I’ve given up drinking."

Famous Funny Poem by Alfred Noyes
Everyone grumbled. The sky was grey.
We had nothing to do and nothing to say.
We were nearing the end of a dismal day,
And then there seemed to be nothing beyond,
Then
Daddy fell into the pond!
And everyone's face grew merry and bright,
And Timothy danced for sheer delight.
"Give me the camera, quick, oh quick!
He's crawling out of the duckweed!" Click!
Then the gardener suddenly slapped his knee,
And doubled up, shaking silently,
And the ducks all quacked as if they were daft,
And it sounded as if the old drake laughed.
Oh, there wasn't a thing that didn't respond
When
Daddy Fell into the pond!

open wide

ready to commit

feeling so very full inside

for footprints made

and then swirl inland
a rushing tide

TIME FOR THE HOUSE BY THE RIVER
I want to live with you
in a house by the river
the shyest violets
in the twilight
the darkest greens
on the island
in the river
I want to give you
my love
my loving
Time for building
and refining
the plans and the designing
buying lumber
then constructing
so next summer
if we're lucky
we'll live in our
house by the river
that house that
lives inside me
I'll build it
with you
We'll build it
and reside there
in our house
by the river
Heavy breezes
by the river
bring me to dreaming
of our house
that we'll be building
by the river
Large white-framed windows
a glassed-in veranda
flowing water until winter
rustling leaves in the darkness
near that house
that lives inside me
time to build
and reside there
that house
by the river
I want to live with you
in a house by the river
the shyest violets
in the twilight
the darkest greens
on the island
in the river
I want to give you
my love
my loving
Time for building
and refining
the plans and the designing
buying lumber
then constructing
so next summer -
I feel so lucky -
we'll live in our
house by the river

IT'S TABOO TO SAY I LOVE YOU
It's taboo to say I love you
just because I feel
the words rising in me
strong and clear and real
I hear the words
I love you
rising in my throat
But my throat closes on them
I try to say the words
and almost choke
It's taboo
It's taboo to say I love your touch
the feeling of your skin
the warmth of your flesh
your heartbeat deep within
It's taboo
I don't know who taught me
must have been long ago
But clearly, strongly, deeply
I know
It's taboo
I almost broke the silence
many, many times
But was held back by the feeling
that to say
I love you
was not just taboo
but to lie
To feel love
is taboo
an even deeper taboo
I don't know who taught me
must have been long ago
But clearly, strongly, deeply
I know
It's taboo
The punishment? Humiliation
The punishment? Shame
The punishment? Consternation
The punishment? Blame
or blankness
or a thankless sigh
I'm unsure of the punishment
But I'd rather die
No one can make me
say
I love you
No one can break me
or my heart
in two
Except
I long to say
I love you
I long to praise
all of you
I long to feel
a closeness
that's taboo
It's taboo
to say
I love you
Yet I long to say the words
It's taboo
to feel
such feelings
What if the words fall once more on deaf ears?
What if they once more go unheard?
And what if I'm wrong?
What if this isn't love I'm feeling at all?
Yet you say you love me
That's not taboo
for you
And I feel your words
throughout me
That's not taboo
Inside me, turmoil
Outside, a quiet look
As inside I struggle with an age-old
taboo
| love |
THE WARMTH WITHIN
touch me with your hand
my dear
pull me close
against your chest
hold me in your arms
my dear
your heartbeat
giving me rest
let my hands
my dear
caress your skin
feeling the warmth
my dear
the warmth within

Keep believing
Go on until
we meet

Your heart beating
Two
bodies meeting
gentle
caressing
the touch
a blessing
a loving
meeting
lasting
fleeting
then repeating
holding
making
the deepest greeting
until
Stop
Hold
Go

more
than one plus one
making
a love
that flows throughout time
Let me love you
sweetheart of mine
Stop
Wait
Floodgates are breaking
sweeping away the hesitating
Hold me close
I've been feeling loving
lately
Stop
Go on with the loving
Hold me close
Hold me close
Hold me close
Let me break free
of waiting
hesitating
Wait
for me
as I lie trembling
in your arms
hoping remembering
your tender loving
Hold
me I know you're staying
Wait
There's still no saying
where this flow will take us
but no use complicating
this game of love we're playing
with fears
you'll be betraying
me
or you
better things to do
Love
I feel safety
Love
is what's generating
slowly
quickly
thinly
thickly
Stop
Wait
Go on

DO WE MEET AGAIN?
do we meet again
cross the street again
court defeat again
or could we complete
what we once
almost were
we could try again
but we could fry again
can't deny
what we once
almost were
could we try again
can't deny though
we could fry again
court in vain again
could we meet again
cross the street again
court defeat again
or could there be more?
could we try again
we could fry again
it could be in vain
or could there be more?
there could be war again
what could be in store if we try again
could there be more?
we could yearn again
it could be in vain
or we could solve resolve
there could be love again
stars above again
it could be bliss again
or we could miss again
the way to the stars
it's our turn again
we could spurn
the chance to gain again
or try in vain again
but in the main again
it could be more
we could meet again
cross the street again
we could say again
we will try again
to reach the sky again
build a life again
that's not in vain
we're not quite the same
again and again
I'll cross the street
we could meet again
we might match this time
we might catch again
fire
and keep warm
we could be warm again
love up a storm again
when the storm subsides again
will that be all?
we could try again
and not in vain
we could meet
we could match
we could catch
a life deeply ours
we could try again
love of my heart

if I have
if I have my wish tonight
you will tell me
yes
tonight
honey there's something I have to say
will you be mine forever
as of tonight

LOVE IS MY KIND OF TANGLE
roulette makes my nerves jangle
poker plays are not my angle
casino games can't hold a candle
to love
love is my kind of gamble
love is my kind of tangle
I'm winning more than I can handle
love tangle
love tango
caught up in the brambles
snagged when on a ramble
I didn't need even a preamble
to love
love tangle
love tango
love wild
love mild
love returned
to me
my feet step on your shoes
I get ready to sing the blues
then you whisper the news
you love
you love me
love tangle
love tango
I've tried
alone
pride
cool
snide
And I can't hide
cool cat can't hold a candle
to love
distant glamor fades beside
love
love is my kind of gamble
love is my kind of tangle
I'm winning more than I can handle
love is my style
tame and mild
deep and wild
love tangle
love tango
the cold shoulder keeps apart
the icy stare cuts the heart
blasé snubs frost the air
distant glamor wears and tears
love
ooh, the cold shoulder chills the heart
snobs lose before they start
love
tame and mild
deep and wild
love tangle
love tango
gentle, scary
seering, daring
filling the heart
love
love is my kind of gamble
love is my kind of tangle
I'm winning all that I can handle
love tangle
love tango
love wild
love mild
love returned
to me | love |
IF WE KEEP FLIRTING
I'm not confused
I'm uncertain
If we keep flirting
Could it be
Could we be making
creating
this thing called love?
I'm uncertain
hesitating
My heart is waiting ... | love |
DO YOU THINK OF ME?
Do you think of me?
Do you think of me?
and I don’t mean,
like e=mc2
Not that kind of thinking
Do you think of me?
Do you think of me?
and I don’t mean, are you obsessed?
are you possessed?
Not that kind of think of me ...

ALIENS HAVE LANDED
Aliens have landed
at the movies
in my dreams
in my head
and my life
They come in peace
destroy the world
rupture chests
devour, invade
overthrow, save
are just like us
have alien gifts
Take your pick
In my dream
they're at the door
I quickly hide
the radio beacon
I've used to call them
inside
icing.
That takes the cake.
Icing
a sweet but frosty exterior
like mine when I am afraid
I am afraid
They come to raid
invade
betray
my hope
my trust
will use my signal just
to fulfill
an evil lust
for death
Aliens have landed
at the movies
in my dreams
in my life
They come in peace
destroy the world
rupture chests
devour, invade
overthrow, save
are just like us
have alien gifts
We do not know
In my dream
I take the cake
and then I break
into laughter
shaking
awakening
to joy
And in life
someone
wants me
wants me
to be
alien concept -
his wife
Yet I did invite
him into my
life
and now he wants me
wants me
to be
an alien concept
It leaves me reeling
It's not unappealing
Yet I am afraid
he will betray
my hopes and longings.
I hide my fears under warmth, silence, icing.
My radio beacon waits.

DO YOU LONG FOR ME TENDERLY
do you long for me tenderly
do you long for my embrace
do you long for me tenderly
do you long to touch softly
your palm to my face
do you long to hold me
do you long to caress
do you long to love me
with tenderness
do you long for me
do you long for me tenderly
do you long
do you hold in your heart
a thousand memories
of loving me
do you love me

IT'S YOU AND ME
You and me
one day we met
You and me
we went to bed
You and me
we were wed
And now it's our
anniversary
You and me
in the park
You and me
in the dark
You and me
had a lark
And now it's our
anniversary
It doesn't take
an advanced degree
to see it starts with
chemistry
And it's our
anniversary
You and me
learned to ski
You and me
went to the sea
You and me
each found a key
Me to you
and you to me
Basically
it's you and me
I married you
You married me
I still love you
You still love me
And that is
our history
It doesn't take
an advanced degree
to see it's more than
chemistry
I'm here for you
and you're for me
And it's our
anniversary
You and me
caught a flu
Both went through
tough times too
Cat in a tree
Cat with fleas
You and me
endlessly
You and me
learned to mend
nicks and cracks
to stay best friends
You and me
have to agree
I love you
and you love me
There isn't any
mystery
To our basic
recipe
I'm here for you
and you're for me
It doesn't take
an advanced degree
to see it's
elementary
I love you and you love me
And it's our
anniversary
You and me
one day we met
You and me
we went to bed
You and me
we were wed
And now it's our
anniversary

READY TO SETTLE
Leave me in this eddy
in this idle tidal pool
I am ready
to settle
not to settle for
to settle with
to settle down
to settle into
a steady
loving
with you
I am steady
in an eddy
floating
on a float
Gentle rocking
from wavelets lapping
Gentle rustling
from leaves brushing
while I'm steady
never better
like butter soaking
into toast
and I'm ready
like flannel bedding
that keeps me
warm as toast
Leave me in this eddy
in this idle tidal pool
I need your steady loving
as time flows by
And I want you to know
I am ready
steady
to settle
not to settle for
to settle with
down
into
a steady
loving
with you
Sometimes
I unsettle
the settling
Sometimes
you pull back
we lose track
crack
the steady loving
But I need you to know
I am ready
for the steady
settled
living with you
I am aching
for the steady
settled
living with you
Autumn sunshine
heats the coolness
Leaves glow
tinged with brown
as I'm steady
floating
coasting
soaking
in the sun
Toast
with jam and butter
with juice and coffee
with yogurt and fresh fruit
is settling in my stomach
while I'm readying
for lunch
while I'm holding steady
in an eddy
floating
on a float
And I want you to know
I am ready
steady
to settle
not to settle for
to settle with
down
into
a steady
loving
with you
Leave me in this eddy
in this idle tidal pool
I bask in your steady loving
as time flows by
And I want you to know
I am ready
steady
to settle
not to settle for
to settle with
to settle down
to settle into
a steady
loving
with you
You move
with determination
across the field
stand steady
on the shore
watch me floating
on the float
in the eddy
You're unsure
should you get wet?
but you breathe
contentment
in and out
Our gazes meet
hold steady
Ready
Ready
Steady
Ready to settle
| love |
do you long for me
long for me
long for me tenderly
do you long to touch
your hand to my face
do you long to embrace
to embrace me tenderly
gently caressing
do you long for me?

A Love So Great
Have you ever felt a love so great
I have.
Just by looking into your eyes
By watching you when your asleep
Your chest rise and fall with every breathe you take.
Have you ever felt a love so great
I have.
When you walk into a room
My heart still skips a beat
The butterflies in my stomache flap their gentle wings.
Have you ever felt a love so great
I have and I hope you have too.
Remember that everytime we fight
That everytime we shout
No matter what, my love for you is always strong
Yesterday, today, tomorrow, forever and all eternity.
This love I feel and have will always be yours.
So hold it and care for it like I do yours.
| love |
Love and Hate
Love is for those who care
hate is for those who hate
friends are those who will be there till the end
parents are those to say never be late
You said you loved me because you cared
but at the same time you said you hated me
as long as your there i will never leave
Why do u make me mad
Make me sad?
Make me cry?
Make me wanna die?
You say u love me
then u play games with my heart
and eventually tear it all
you said u would always love me
I thought it was true
but all it was was u being you
I will always love you no matter what
this may be true
even though u always turn me blue.
| love |
What I Love About You
The sparkle in your eye,
The warmth of your skin.
Your breath on my neck,
That shakes me within.
The touch of your hand,
The smell of your hair.
The naughtiness in your smile,
That strength in your stare.
Your kiss on my lips,
Your body near mine.
The stroke of your touch,
That feeling inside.
The Compassion in your embrace.
The power in your face.
The beating of your heart.
That we may never part
The beauty of your kiss,
and that magic in your touch.
It is for all these reasons and more,
Why I love you so much……….

Words From The Heart
When I fell in love my heart was on fire
To be with you was my one desire
And if you love me I’ll give you everything you need
A lifetime of promises and a world full of dreams
For only my heart knows what it means
And I promise you it won’t be wrong
One love, two hearts we will make it strong,
But now my love is lost in your sweet kiss
Honey when I’m alone you’re the one I miss
And your sweet, tender love it hard to resist
Darling it's true my heart has fallen in love with you
Looking upon the stars tonight wishing with all my might
Hoping someday you will realize this passion I hold inside
Honey it doesn’t cost a dime.
And if you give in your love could be mine
I feel truly blessed for this feeling the Lord has given me
Accompany by faith and much understanding
And I know this gift will guide me for all eternity
As my heart fly by with angel wings
And the clouds form into wedding rings
A woman in love the angels sing
On and on a soft melody
That’s how it feels to be in love like me.
For thoughts from the heart are never ending
| love |
Love. Plain And Simple
I get butterflies,
every time,
You look at me, touch me, talk to me.
Big cheesy smiles across my face,
You fill that empty place,
Deep in my heart,
Where it has been lonely for such a long while,
I hope we never part.
Because if we did…
I don’t know if I could take it..
I’m giving you my heart..
Please don’t break it.
Oh I feel for you so much,
When your not with me
Oh how I miss your touch.
I go crazy waiting for your reply,
When I can’t talk to you I want to cry.
I don’t think I’ve ever felt this way..
Feelings for you come more and more each and every day,
You know how to make me smile
I hate being away from you
Even for a little while
You’re so sweet
When I'm near you, my whole body fills with heat,
And I have an out of control heart beat.
I cant control myself
I cant help but want you all to myself.
I can’t think of enough words to explain,
My feelings for you are simple, there plain.
Do you understand what I'm trying to say?
I'm so glad we found each other
I'm so glad we love one another.
There are only so many words to use to say
You are more then okay
You’re mine babe
| love |
Super Mom
Mom, you're a wonderful mother,
So gentle, yet so strong.
The many ways you show you care
Always make me feel I belong.
You're patient when I'm foolish;
You give guidance when I ask;
It seems you can do most anything;
You're the master of every task.
You're a dependable source of comfort;
You're my cushion when I fall.
You help in times of trouble;
You support me whenever I call.
I love you more than you know;
You have my total respect.
If I had my choice of mothers,
You'd be the one I'd select!
| love |
Everything Mom
How did you find the energy, Mom
To do all the things you did,
To be teacher, nurse and counselor
To me, when I was a kid.
How did you do it all, Mom,
Be a chauffeur, cook and friend,
Yet find time to be a playmate,
I just can’t comprehend.
I see now it was love, Mom
That made you come whenever I'd call,
Your inexhaustible love, Mom
And I thank you for it all.
| love |
Life Lessons
You may have thought I didn't see,
Or that I hadn't heard,
Life lessons that you taught to me,
But I got every word.
Perhaps you thought I missed it all,
And that we'd grow apart,
But Dad, I picked up everything,
It's written on my heart.
Without you, Dad, I wouldn't be
The (woman)(man) I am today;
You built a strong foundation
No one can take away.
I've grown up with your values,
And I'm very glad I did;
So here's to you, dear father,
From your forever grateful kid.

Best Friend Poem
I still remember the first day we met
We were too shy to say much at all
It's funny to think back to that time
Because now we're having a ball!
They say that true friendship is rare
An adage that I believe to be true
Genuine friendship is something that I cherish
I am so lucky to have met you.
Our bond is extremely special
It is unique in it's own way
We have something irreplaceable
I love you more and more each day.
We've been through so much together
In so little time we've shared
I will never forget all the moments
That you've shown me how much you cared.
Friends are forever
Especially the bond that you and I possess
I love your fun-filled personality
Somehow you never fail to impress.
The world could use more people like you
It would certainly be a better place
I love everything about you
You are someone I could never replace.
You are always there for me
When my spirits need a little lift
I cannot thank you enough for that
You are truly an extraordinary gift.
You are everything to me and more
I could never express that enough
Life is such a treacherous journey, and
Without you it would be even more tough.
Our story will continue to grow
With each passing day
Because I trust that with you by my side
Everything will always be Okay.
You are so dear to me
You know I will love you until the end
I will always be there for you, and
You will always (and forever) be my best friend
| love |
Little Sister
You've changed my life completely
the day that you were born.
Never knew how wonderful it would be,
to explore motherhood.
But since I got the chance to
I have to confess and say,
that I was so scared to hold you
always thought that you would break
cause you were so tiny an fragile
there was no thinking twice
but as time went on
you got bigger every moment
and the next thing I knew
is you were trying to crawl and walk
there were times when you'd fall and cry
but I would dry them tears
and you would get right back up and try again
Just thinking and looking back at the past
I've figured out
that seeing you and those cute little faces you make
is what gets me through each day
I'm so happy your here little sis
I love you very much
and nothing will ever change that.
| love |
She lives only in winter
She lives only in winter
Even under summer’s sun
She’s re-living every moment
When she thought he was the one
She lives only in winter
Getting frozen in this time
Steeling the future from her life
And getting punished for her crime
She lives only in winter
Away from the springs rain
Away from heartbreak summer
And all of autumn’s pain
She lives only in winter
In a world that is unsure
In a world of make-believe
And a world where he loves her
She lives only in winter
Cause she cant bare to feel
The truth of her depressing loss
The truth and all that’s real
She lives only in winter
Even under summer’s sun
She’s just re-living moments
When she thought he was the one | love |
A Special World
A special world for you and me
A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.
Its fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nestling us to the fold
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.
And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keep us strong
In a special world, where we belong.
| love |
An Entrapment
My love, I have tried with all my being
to grasp a form comparable to thine own,
but nothing seems worthy;
I know now why Shakespeare could not
compare his love to a summer’s day.
It would be a crime to denounce the beauty
of such a creature as thee,
to simply cast away the precision
God had placed in forging you.
Each facet of your being
whether it physical or spiritual
is an ensnarement
from which there is no release.
But I do not wish release.
I wish to stay entrapped forever.
With you for all eternity.
Our hearts, always as one.
| love |
Never Have I Fallen
Your lips speak soft sweetness
Your touch a cool caress
I am lost in your magic
My heart beats within your chest
I think of you each morning
And dream of you each night
I think of your arms being around me
And cannot express my delight
Never have I fallen
But I am quickly on my way
You hold a heart in your hands
That has never before been given away | love |
Honey Did You Know
Honey did you know??
That you had me all the way
With those softly spoken words
That you chose to say
Honey did you know??
You always amaze me
And that is one thing,
That I would like you to see
Honey did you know??
You've changed the way I see things
You make me happy to look forward to,
What tomorrow will bring
Honey did you know??
When I'm singing in the mirror
I imagine I'm singing in front of you
And I'm holding you near
Honey did you know??
That even though your not here
I can always feel you love,
Cause I hold your feelings near
Honey did you know??
I run all the things you say, around in my head
It usually brings me peace at night,
Before I go to bed
Honey did you know??
That you are in my dreams at night
And honey you look just like an angel
And you send me on a flight
Honey did you know
I will always think of you this way
That is why forever
With you my heart will stay
| love |
Breath Of Love
There comes a gentle knocking in this night,
This night where my slumber lays restless.
I tumble and turn to stir my tears.
My eyes open with the rhythm of
the memories that are tapping at my door.
You have come again to haunt my dreams
And pull back the covers of my heart.
I lay here willing to think of you and
The youth you gave me so long ago.
How long the breath of love has lay dormant
Resting and waiting, eager to fill me again.
It has slept with its own aloneness where
My canyons echoed the sounds of its silence.
Like a torrent of honey bees your
Love comes to me and steels my sleep.
It wakes my soul and shuffles
The moments of life that live forever.
Your embrace is welcomed like an old friend.
I gladly let it wrap its feelings around me.
The tenderness of your kiss quenches me
until the dawn comes to hide you away.
| love |
Like The Waves From The Shore
I must now ebb
The time has come
to sail my oceans
Rolling away from you
like the waves from the shore
rippling out to the vastness of the sea
that beckons my ship of folly
I'll not ask you
to stand the night vigil
on the shoreline
of memory
You are here
on the beaches of my memory
even though I drift the tides
If you should look
into a starlit night
and see a reflection of me
know only that
I will one day
come crashing again
to the shore
swept homeward
by the pull
of the tide
and
you
| love |
Defining Peace
The first smile of newly born baby is peace
Mother’s love for the baby is peace
Parenting the baby is peace
Become a part of growing process of the baby is peace
Peace is opposite of violence
Peace is Truth, Order and Harmony
Peace is love, affection and empathy
Equity, sustainability and eco-friendly
Peace is a source of energy
Creating spriton and then
Proton, neutron and electron
Peace creates life
Consciousness is a product of peace and
That of the universe and the life
Peace is infinite and time and spaceless
But creates temporal objects
Peace is a bridge between ‘science and sprituality"
Peace provides life-support systems
Creating resources and ecological equilibrium
Peace creates prosperity
With adoption of appropriate technology
Peace is divine and material
Peace stimulates wisdom
And peaceful behavior
To develop ecology and human systems
Sustaining universal laws
OH humans accept and develop
The definition of peace for
Creating one world-one peaceful global human family
Without violence, wars and terrorism
| peace |
GLORY OF PEACE
Day begins
With visuals of material world
Some virtual and some real
But the "INNERSELF" is left alone
Craving to infuse truths of life
The energy of peace which
Is overshadowed either by poverty or
By material-abundance
Without a sense of enousness
Eyes remain open seeing poverty and luxury
Disregarding the consciousness
Till the day ends
Night takes us to beds with closed eyes
Which is more bright to realise the truths
Establishing connectivity with spriton
Closing eyes are more powerful than open eyes
Which arouse our consciousness
To access peace energy
That illuminates innerself and the outside world
Which calls for closing of the eyes
When eyes are open to enjoy the glory Of Peace
| peace |
PEACE-THE ULTIMATE TECHNOLOGY
Peace comes when
Ego is emitted out
Amity spreads out
Comforting other’ pain
Encashing human values and virtues
Timeless is the nature of peace
Enlightening the urge to
Care for and share with all
Harmony, order and
Nobleness of heart and soul
Owning the precious spriton that
Luminates the innermost
Only to spread truth, order and happiness
Giving the solace to humanity
Year after years to live happily in peace
PEACE, ECOLOGY AND HOMO SAPIENS
Universal laws Give
Birth to Mother Nature
A Unique blending of beauty
Serenity, resources and harmony
Peace is inbuilt to Mother Nature
The sun rise, sun set and bounty of
Flora and fauna express peace
Stimulating the innerness of
Life forms transforming them
Reptile to mammalian ones
Ecology, the science of relationship
Between life forms and their environment
Based on the energy of peace
Creates and dissolves
To be again part of universal peace
A wonderful and beautiful universe
Would have been there
With colorful peace and ecology
But the misadventure of
Homo sapiens
Greedy and crooked
Destroy peace and ecology
Without peeping into their consciousness
Beleiving more and more on virtuality
As days pass by civilization after civilization
Inviting the "doomsday"
Which is not far away today
| peace |
SEPTEMBER11,2001 AND PEACE
September11,2001
A day in human civilization
A dark day of
Terror
Dissolving thousands of lives
Babies, children ,old and youths
Without any reasons or rhymes
Buried the innocent souls in the WTO
The world’s most powerful Trade center
Of mightiest Americans
Who with all their wealth and prosperity
Succumbed to un preccedent violence of death
Prosperity devoid of peace failed to
Counter the violence
Giving a call for
A new America’s war
Will it be a war of violence or
A war of Peace
The science of time still not understood fully
Will document in history the form in which
The event will be acknowledged by the posterity
But the message that PEACE is always victorious
Will continue to rule the humanity till life continues
In the biosphere.
| peace |
PEACE- MY HEART
When I lost my only heart
To a place where peace was absent
I lost everything
When I have forgotten
The love of peace
The address of peace
What remains now
A jilted soul with
A strong desire to become
A part of universal peace
| peace |
PEACE- MY LIFE
I have laughed a lot
Cried a lot
For material adequacy and inadequacy
Tears rolled out of my eyes
For the virtual objects
I was hankering after
Life devoid of peace is no life
Even with material abundance
If peace does not find a place in a corner
My life
The rhythm of my wave of life continues
In a vegetative manner.
| peace |
PEACE AND DRAMA OF UNIVERSE
When I ask for peace
I get violence
Under the pretension of peace
Gazing at the sun, moon and universe
Ignites my soul towards peace
For a transitory period
Present culture of humanity
Snatches away even that transitory peace
And throws me to an environment
Of inaccessible inner, domestic and global peace
I love peace
Desires to contribute to peace
But violent human environment
Dramatise my emotion
Not to utilize my potential of peace power
For the benefit of humanity
Creating roadblocks
And a desire arises to
Request my spirton to leave the body
For merging with universal peace
Let the drama of universe
Decide my role towards peace
Anything may unfold in the drama
But I shall be at peace for ever
PEACEFULLY
IN THIS BEAUTIFUL WORLD. | peace |
7/7 and 9/11
Poverty and global Warming
High affluence and intolerance
In equity and unsustainably
In equal access to resource
Lack of psychic of share and care
And understanding of cosmic laws
And its application
Erupt reptile mind
With violence, crimes & terrorism
Dissolving millions of life
Calls to counter 9/11 has not succeeded fully
Which recurred 7/7 again with invisible enemies
How many ages will be spent in the cosmic time ?
In killing each other and disconnecting
Man from man and
Man from nature
How the invisible enemies be visible ?
Cultivating humanity’s intellect and emotion
Be accepted as the top most priority
To generate ideas and technology
With the principles of PEACE TECHNOLOGY
Through “collective minds” of
Humanitarianism and biosphereism
Only then the violence and bloodiest terror of 9/11 and 7/7
Will be wiped out on earth and
Peace will prevail on earth
As the energy of creating
Prosperity for all
Without any discrimination
To establish a peaceful
Human and ecological society

PEACE POEMS -- MILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALS
Without fear, desperation and terrorism
And with love , affection, compassion, and equilibrium
To live with security, comfort and happiness
And with truth, order and harmony
But development goals adopted in last two millenniums
Have failed creating more and more pessimisms
Raising serious apprehension
For survival of humans
In the planet earth and cosmic world
Instead of creative construction
Creative destruction has increased manifold
In the last two millenniums
Because of in equilibrium relationship between
“spiriton and atom”
“non-matter and matter”
and gradually loss of reins
by the mind (The driver)
on the five senses
human body
leading it to the path of suicide
and to a process self combustion of matter
Reverting back to a stage of status-quo
Of “nothingness” which was there before
“The Big Bang”
With absolute peace of spiriton of universe
Without giving any scope to Big Bang
Development goals of third millennium calls for
Evaluation of goals of last two millenniums
So that appropriate intellectualism
Without any discrimination and inequity in use of atom
And learning the principles of spiriton linked to atom
Deepening our roots with oneness, friendship, compassion, cooperation
Love ,caring, sharing, tolerance and value education
Truth, order and harmony to be inbuilt to goals
To meet the material needs of all
With the principle of humanitarianism and biosphereism
All such elements constitute peace technology concept
Collectively represent spiriton and atom oncology
To erase violence from the mind and
Root out terrorism from the mortal world
OH humans accept millennium development goals
As peace with its sources and constituents of technology
To ensure saga of humanity
To continue in the biosphere
Through designing human activities
both for biosphere and human peace
for making millennium development goals
peaceful, sustainable and vibrant
free of crime, violence and terrorism root.

A call to the Mother-to-be of the World
Adam and Eve
Adam is seed
Eve is soil
Seeds put in Eve
makes Eve pregnant
Mother-to-be
The seed and soil
relationship results
in creation of a life
Man and Women relation
like seed and soil passages
through different stages
of childhood, adulthood and old
Nothing remains static
science of time is least understood
And in no time childhood transforms to old age
Human body craves for satisfaction
of biological, sexual, and metabolical needs
Manage the three stages of life
Especially the adulthood
Enjoy material objects, sex, places
And relationship
In a responsible manner
to ensure bright future of your progeny
After all that mother-to- be stage arrives
to create a new life
only with the energy of PEACE
Understand and cultivate your mind
remembering that an offspring is not
the product of vulgar sex
Neither it is product of disco or dating
Quality of offspring is determined by
internal impulses of mother's body
and family, community and society impulses
to mould his/her life-body-mind relationship
here the peace energy modulates
More the peace- consciousness energy
the child in the mother's womb vibrates
with peace energy
resulting in creation of a peaceful
human being without any violence mind
oh mothers -to- be of the world
learn the techniques of infusing peace
energy to your child in the womb
to create a peaceful offspring
who will enrich your life with real
joy and making you proud
who will spread the fragrance of peace
throughout the world
to make our planet earth "Green and Peace"-A place to live in peace and prosperity
Will you not do it?
Do it to spend a meaningful life
| peace |
