A road to nowhere
A lighthouse for a farm
Technicolour clouds
English weather so warm
A city full of hope
Anchors without chain
Grass always green
Summer without rain
Contentment widespread
Happiness found
Little money enough
Family around
Alice had six
I found twelve
Impossibilities in the
island I live

Looking at your dwellings
Houses and farms
Mind wonders
About the lives you live
Full of hope
Amazing skills
Then we come around
Good or bad news
Changing your views
Amending your fate
Habits you hate
Make you believe
Or devoid of faith
Bed of flowers
Mourning wreath
We live eternity
You, a moment or two
Still, that much happiness?
May we have it too!!
On a journey to somewhere known
Close to the heart, where happiness was born
On the winding way, long road beyond reality
thousand places pass, never to be visited
their stories never narrated, through dry blunt lips
when running towards, the joy of being
such tiny, minuscule details are lost,
although, almost, always at a cost
which is repaid, by the kiss of beloved
forgotten pages of moments passed
when seen from a prism of harsh perception
colours of traits separated, deception
envy, lust, cruelty, hate, indifference
nothing good seems to refract out
good and evil in a vicious bout
evil it seems, always wins
suggesting redemption in a sin
losing perspective of the journey, its end
stay the course, traveller, avoid the bend
where the life carriage will be broken
help will come, heaven send
from the same forgotten, hidden, unmentioned
people of the middle, who would lend
a soul in hand, to push you across prairie
Mighty heart beams
Happiness out of seams
A smile telling all
For a bundle so small
girl for a girl, it seems
most joyful being
Sweet dreams caressing my eyes
Your voice giving solitude a hope
The day I see you, happiness unfathomable
Will come, alas, my heart won’t cope
Throw a few rose petals on my coffin!
Life strangles
joy within
Let it loose
If you choose
Laugh a little
Recognising humans from what they wear
funny money they spend, consume and care
layers and layers, of incoherent importance
Affection passionately shown
Shame left alone
Happiness reflected
Jealousy deflected
Pains, aches hidden
frowns get ridden
Envy deflated
Modesty inflated
Destiny reckoned
Knowledge beaconed
Lust utterly weakened
Friends tightly hugged
Experiences pursued rugged
Family immensely loved,
Lovers intimately kissed
deceased dearly missed
Life enjoyably passed
it will not last, for long
pleased that you came
wait is difficult
when years are not with me
Life journey smooth
Emotions bending its move
Anger makes it hard
In love you fly
Sadness makes it crawl
Happiness takes it high
Just keep an eye
on speed
