My love invited me for dinner,
The table was set romantically,
Candle lit with red roses in a vase,
Wine and barbecue chicken and chips,
She broke my heart just as I broke a chicken piece,
Said it was over,

22/5/2021

I was there when he broke your heart,
Like a savage,tore it into tiny parts,
A bit here, a bit there,
Scattered into shards everywhere.
I saw you  bleeding with sorrow,
As if there was no tomorrow.
I am sorry I could not help you heal your wounds,
For I  had not come around,
I  too, was bleeding,
In pain writhing,
He had left me too,
In pieces I am still unable to sew.

My favourite teacup
shattered to tiny pieces
tears could not mend it.

dream hammock for the lovers

Lovers become best poets,
Shattered dreams,
Grief,
Painful tears that fall from the heart,
And seep into the soul,
They let it pour onto paper,
As poetry.

Chinese broken vase
a wilted rose speaks sadly
of a jilted love.

Is a tight bond,
Until,
A woman or money comes between them.

Nothing made sense until she came into my life,
Then colourful words fell like autumn leaves onto an empty page,
Love verses spitting out in a blaze of glory,
Setting the page aflame with a breathtaking romantic poem.

When I fell in love again,
I dug a small grave in my heart,
I buried all his flaws,
I will just go wherever my love takes me.

The candle,
Only for yourself,
And your success,
After all it only gives enough ligh5
to find your way.

an empty cocoon
fluttering wings nearby
beauty in our midst.
12/11/2021

stuck in a cocoon
thought my life was just over
wow! got wings to fly.
12/11/2020

My love was like a caterpillar,
Cocooned in the chrysallis of my
heart.
But, when I met your glance,
Felt the tender touch of your fingers,
Saw your eyes dilate shyly,
with sparkles in them,
The cheeky curve of your smile.
My love shed and grew into a beautiful butterfly,
Thirsty for your nectar,
My exotic flower.

Is abrupt,
FI AMANILLAH is beautiful,
It means I leave you in the care of Allah,
Who never abandons you.

My time has come,
I am weary and burdened with ill health,
HE has promised I would
REST IN PEACE.

They are always by my side,
They never leave me,
Day and night,
Shine and Rain,
Winter to Autumn.
MY ARMS.

Crackling fire warms street family

I send you a simple cake which is you my life,
Icing on the cake is our love full of different flavours.
25/8/2020

I sat at my computer,
I looked out of the window later,
I saw the moon waltzing in the dark sky,
I wondered why?
It winked and smiled,
Come, dance with me for a little while,
So twice I pressed the space bar,
Nothing happened so far.
7/2/2019.

Every drop of tear,
Every breath I inhaled,
Every beat of my heart,
Beseeched  for you to come,
Such that the clock in the hall chimed your name,
The kettle on the stove whistled,
The hoover vroomed,
The gentle breeze fluttered
The rain on the roof top tattooed,
My cat meowed,
For my sake called out your name,
But you never came.

He was the hurricane,
And I was his eye.

Hungry and alone,
Unmoving on a lily pad...
frog waits for the prey.

Women gain,
Men lose,
A teaspoon of ***** contains five calories.

A gush of wind.....
candle spurts,
Baby gurgles.

Candle- life,
Short wick-girl,
Long wick-boy.

Light- birth
Parents delight.

Candle light-life burns on fast or slow.

Wax- melts,soft with tears and becomes hard with happiness.

Candle- puff, goes out any time,
               DEATH.




,

He is the candle,
And I the wick,
Together we defy and define darkness in our love life

If you can't win them,
Join them,
And if you can't convince them,
Confuse them.

My heart beats for you,
I adore your smile,
I always think of taking you out for dinner,
But, I hear you eat a lot,
I am afraid my wallet cannot handle the bill.😜

For her it was a kind word and a good deed,
For me it was a beautiful Spring Day.

If you are a catch,
Let me fish you,
Hook, line and sinker.

The caterpillar never imagined that his last day in the cocoon
would be the beginning of a new beautiful life with wings to be free at last.

Cockroach,  Cockroach , what are you doing in my soup,
In the kitchen I was playing hoop la hoop,
And I fell in you soup mister,
It's hot and I am getting blisters,
Scoop me with your spoon,
Before I swoon.
Please don't shout or scream,
I will be thrown out of the kitchen of my dream,
Filthy and messy,
With rotten fish, slimy and smelly,
Red meat in blood,
And fungi on sauces and salads with mould,
Never scrubbed,the kitchen,
For thousands of us it's heaven.
Be a pal,
Go away with your gal,
At least I did you a favour,
Not eating in this yucky place forever.

Celebrate life everyday,
Don't wait for tomorrow,
BEING ALIVE is a special occasion.

We are the sun and moon,
Parents of earthlings,
Moon is the mother,
Glowing with love for her earthlings,
She borrows light from me so that her children are not in the dark,
Lullabies her tiny tots to sleep,
Provides romantic ambience to lovers,
She gives day and night,
Tides to ebb and flow,
And keep their home the earth balanced on its axis,
At sunrise she begs me to look after them properly,
Motherly Love
As a father I sustain them,
I give them light, heat and energy,
So they are not cold,
They have food on their table,
And oxygen to breathe.
I cause seasons for them to enjoy.
But our children are as stubborn as a mule,
Egoistic and inconsiderate,
With no compassion for their parents,
They have created Satans,
Money and weapons of mass destruction,
Trying to outdo one another,
And destroy what we have lovingly given them,
By playing this super game called
POLITICS

In meditation,
Is that you enter the chaotic
madhouse within you,
Try to overcome it,
And create calm.

Easy on the eyes,
My next door neighbour's daughter........
Spits fire from her tongue.

He came,
Spurted a teaspoon of ***** inside her:
A politician,
A model,
A traitor,
A patriot,
A teacher, nurse, doctor,
An artist, a poet, a writer,............ and I,
A swimming gold medallist.
We all swam to reach the ****,
I was Y and I merged withX first,
A new swimming sensation was born.

Just as weather changes any moment,
So does your mind,
Do what you have decided to do before it's too late.

After marriage,
A husband does not change,
A wife does not change,
But after getting children,
Both change
Their lifestyle changes.
29/11/2020

Leaves change with the seasons,
In time so do we
In winter the trees are bare
So are our eyes dry
With no more tears.

If you want change,
First change yourself,
If you can't,
Accept as what it is.
