One day I bought a kettle,
to make a cup of tea.
This really put me on my mettle,
I did not know how to you see.
I carefully read the instructions,
fill the kettle three quarters full.
This nearly led to my destruction,
for I fell over the kitchen stool.
When the water boils,
pour it into the pot.
Keep a steady hand,
for the water is very hot.
I now have a full teapot,
also a couple of spoons of tea.
This really puts me on the spot,
for I only drink beer you see.

It was a cold dreary night
The rain beat upon the window
It was a night such as this
A man, the one i loved
Took wing, and left my side
I know he was called home
But im so empty inside
Our love will stand forever
But I cannot hold forever
And feel the warmth
I can still feel
His warm breath on my neck
And kisses so long and tender
And my heart is in pieces
so i watch the rain
Through many tears

Life route is to all hilly
Rely not on skill solely
Unseen God exists verily
He answers prayers merrily
When defeats flow in life incessantly
None can take defeats lightly cum gently
Feel that God participates in defeats jointly
Then gradually mind becomes very saintly
A particular field may not yield
Still fate is not at all sealed
Prayer is a protective shield
Let laws of defeat be not repealed
Man is born with hands closed
In his fist his nature is disclosed
Along with body mind is enclosed
He always feels that his life is foreclosed
Other beings live at man’s mercy
Man has established his supremacy
No cure for END in the pharmacy
Can crazy man unravel this secrecy?
Though so many things man can invent
This trap of death, can he circumvent?
Compliment man as super intelligent
But regard him not to God equivalent
The Almighty is not only visible
His actions prove Him to be invincible
Sad emotions are no longer indelible
Praise God via Veda, Koran and Bible
For peace every being prays
To fully get God’s Divine grace
Prayer is devised by human-race
A praying soul peace will embrace
Kindness supplies brightness
Highlighting heart’s greatness
The mighty God is within us
In the form of pure kindness
Let hatred be by love substituted
Let enough love be kindly contributed
Let sacred love be equitably distributed
To God only world’s actions are attributed.

Sometime dark clouds seem so right
Sometime heavy storm blinds my sight
Sometime I love to be a bad man
Don’t want to know where I am
Sometime wish the sky falls
In my sack want to put all the stars
I don’t know why it feels so precise
To take from world all its light
Sometime I want to break the mirror
Sometime I want to stop the river
Sometime I hate other who looks so happy
I can’t explain how much it hurts me badly
Sometime feel my skin is torn
Taken away to give to newborn
Sometime I can’t even see my shadow
Because I have fallen into hole so shallow
I feel all alone and all scare
And there is no one who really care
Sometime truth is worst than lies
Got left no tears in my eyes

The ocean itself is a wonderful place, to chill out, relax,
and have a wonderful day.
Its so unbelievable you’ll have nothing to say,
just listen to the waves crash right through the bay.
But what lies under the ocean is the amazing coral reef,
and if u haven’t seen it its far beyond your belief.
So take a friend and share the fun,
and at the ocean is where you have tons.

Poem to mud-
Poem to ooze-
Patted in pies, or coating the shoes.
Poem to slooze-
Poem to crud-
Fed by a leak, or spread by a flood.
Wherever, whenever, whyever it goes,
Stirred by your finger or strained by your toes,
There’s nothing sloppier, slipperier, floppier,
There’s nothing slickier, stickier, thickier,
There’s nothing quickier to make grown-ups sickier,
Trulier coolier,
Than wonderful mud.

I like to watch the way the wind
can spin a weather vane.
I like to wear my big blue boots
to splash with in the rain.
I like to ride my bright red sled
on cold snowy days.
I like to feel the sun’s warm rays
when I wade in the ocean waves.
Wind, rain, snow, and sun
Every kind of weather
is wonderful and fun!

Tears of insanity
Smiles full of wickedness
A soul that fights with the heart
A mind overwhelmed and lost
The path is divided
I divide
Searching
Willing life to happen
Show its multi-sided face
To eyes who refuse to look
Unable to bear the reflection
Of truth

You’re in with her tonight,
Smiles fading by the candle light,
Does she treat your heart alright?
Secrets are absorbed into night.
Apologies for the buried souls,
With rotting clothes, decaying holes
Minds once filled with tangible goals,
I’m left fighting to break that mold.
My shoes are coloured charcoal dreams,
Taking me places I have once seen,
Skies of gold, dirt of green,
A distant flame, so obscene.
Forced to the top of a hill, I stay,
Buried myself in blue, as not to decay,
Emerged a wizard with eyes set on prey,
And my apathy drew him far away.
I turned a flower into a memory,
That told me you regret being sorry
When you promised it was just me.
Other lovers hidden in secrecy.
No expectations, I demanded less,
But you insisted I was not like the rest,
Laying with your bed understanding your breaths,
Now I twist these sheets of loneliness.

Pain has been no stranger
At times my only friend
Stroked me gently, broke me down
Convinced I’d never mend
Joy has drove it all away
And shown me how to live
It’s healing waters cleanse the soul
And teach me to forgive
Each path I take leads somewhere new
I thought I’d never go
While trapped inside the bitterness
That seems to love me so
Up or down, in or out
I’ll walk into tomorrow
Head held high for I survived
Through madness, joy and sorrow
