Or has restrictions.

I must be best for myself,
To be happy and content,
So that I can be better for others and the people I love most.

My man took me to a library,
He asked me to choose any book I loved,
I looked lovingly into his eyes,
Flickered my eyelashes,
And softly replied,"CHEQUE BOOK."

Salmabanu Hatim Jun 2018
I had put on weight,
I enjoyed life,
I  was optimist,
I was my children's  number one,
My husband had not left me,
Though my beauty was receding.
Didn't have time for beauty parlours,
I decided to sum up myself in the mirror,
Looked at my curves,
None at all,
Looked at my face,
Slight traces of beauty left.
Needed a face lift,
Smile still **** and beautiful,
Hair, high time I went to a good hairstylist.
I turned this way and that way,
I was no more stylish,
I was fading.
Tears welled up in my eyes,
I heard a chorus from behind me,
"BEST CREATION FROM GOD"
My three children and husband
gathered around me for a family hug,
We love you as you are,
Nothing More Nothing Less.
Salmabanu Hatim Dec 2019
A good friend is colour white,
Mix any colour with white to get another colour,
But mix all other colours but you cannot get white.

I never understood  poetry,
And had no time to write a line of it,
But, Your betrayal darkened my soul,
And threw me into the realms of poets.

Salmabanu Hatim Oct 2018
In love, one often faces betrayal,
Cause instead of the soul,
One yearns for the body first.
Salmabanu Hatim Jul 2018
Sometimes anger is better than a smile,
A smile is for everyone,
But most times anger is for someone we don't want to
LOSE.
Salmabanu Hatim Nov 2018
You left me for better pastures,
You did't realize I too was fertile,
You just did not know how to cultivate me.
You are just a pastoralist looking for greener places.
In the poem pastoralist refers to as Romeo

Be wary of greediness of wealth,
Your arrogance,
And your anger.
Remember, today you are walking on soil,
Tomorrow you will be in the same soil
People will remember you by your deeds.

Be crazy,
A bit hazy.
With feet bare,
Dance in the rain without a care.
Sing at the top of your voice,
Songs of your choice,
In the shower,
Lyrics and tune don't matter,
It's your own karaoke,
To be weird is okay
Life is short,
One minute alive the next mort,
No replay,
No rewind.

Let me be your little birdie,
Nestle in your arms,
Lay your eggs,
Look after your nestlings till they learn to fly away,
While you and I sit on the rooftop,
Watching our children make their families.

When you are born,
You cry,
When you are about to die,
You shed a tear from your left eye.
There is a gap between birth and death,
It is called life,
Live it wisely,humanly,
Live it with a smile for others and for you.

If you don't treat it immediately,
Like cancer cells it multiplies,
And becomes mal8gnant,
Eventually it d3stroys you.

There comes a time when we have nothing or no-one left in our life,
There is no family, father, mother, siblings ,friends or relatives,
Then suddenly,  we realize that it was  only God in this whole world  who held onto us all this time,
Soon we sense that our being alive or not only makes a difference to us,
Not to the world,
Till our act ends and the curtains are drawn.

The beach was quiet and deserted as he cleaned debris from the beach,
He saw a priest, a bishop,a cardinal and The Pope strolling towards him, engrossed in their talk,
As they neared to his side he bowed to each one of them and kissed their hands,
The Pope: Your Holiness,
The Cardinal: Your Eminence,
The Bishop:Your Grace,
The Priest:Father,
It was his lucky day.He was blessed.
Then out of the blue he saw an ethereal  beauty come out of the sea in a bikini 36-24-36,
He cried out,"Oh My God!.
