Water disappeared
in distance
acting strange
boat was sad
So much for love
Some stories
never change
Tag Archives: poem
I see you
I see you
fear in my eyes
tell you a story
I get enticed
I will be so sorry
chain around my neck
belt around my neck
worse then a slave
You want me to dance
jump and romance
for few brass pennies
In captivity
my soul dies
and a joker is born
To entertain many
It’s time
When the time is up
let me see your face
touch your lips
listen to your heart
last breath release
love will increase
soul will not cease
death in absolute peace
Last time I saw Mandela..he was going strong at 90
Last time I saw you
You were going strong at 90
the person who moved the world
With his bare hands
And a smile
Which moved us all
Which crushed the evil in our hearts
We are indebted to you
With our lives and our humanity
Long may you live in the history of the world
Not the person who removed the apartheid
But the one who taught humanity to humans

Toil roil
Limbs stretch
Heart pumps
Body dumps
Liquids, fats
Knees crumble
Mind fumbles
Rumble jumble
Waste in haste
My advice,
Bit of vice
Laugh and rest
Dance and fest
Moves to test
Grooves best
Not a moment
Life to waste
Short, sweet
Go with the beat
Till it stops
Beep beep
Bleeeeep
Little red rascals
Little red rascals
I blame you
Amazing beauty
makes heart melt
Commence love journey
there is no guilt
Adorn the ring
with your petals
Flying in the air
heart nicely settles
Big day comes
and you are everywhere
Making us feel blessed
bedroom, kitchen, stairs
Life truly commences
you are not behind
Honeymoon, blue moon
daily grind
Keep reminding us
about love still alive
Somehow, in some way
we will survive
Life near the end
you are now found
Old books, love letters
kept and bound
When it is time to go
still very brave
Red roses everywhere
on my grave
Funeral of the last butterfly
I was invited
to the funeral
of the last butterfly
All the birds were there
Insects made a wreath
Queen bee sung a melancholy
Grief too great to bear
Colours already left
Now the last butterfly gone
Everyone felt so lonely
Earthlings were alone
Far away in the sky
a thunder cloud
lightning strike,
a Phoenix flew in
Tears in its eyes,
sprayed on butterfly wings
Butterfly come to life
In all our hearts
Light of her soul
removed despair
Humanity wake up
When would you care
Planet is for all
We have to share
Might won’t work
win if we dare
Extinction of plants
Insects, animals all admire
Greenery in gardens
Fields and shire
Everything could go
If we don’t spare
Consume less,
Don’t scare
Nature, heavens
Water, our own air
Wind may blow
So does rain
Last butterfly
may flutter again
I wish, hope and pray
