If I know of but only one thing to be true..
It is that I am more myself when I am with you.
As vibrant as the rainbow
As nurturing as a mother
As powerful as the sun
As beautiful as the moon
As brave as a soldier
As resilient as a spider
As soothing as the sound of waves crashing against the shore
As serene as dewdrops falling from the morning leaves
As  sweet as honey
As powerful as death
As bright as the constellations in the night sky
This is how i picture love
Love…it’s not just a four letter word
It’s a way of life
It is what we live for
It is what we hope for
It is what we all want
In this polluted and corrupted world
It is the one of the few sources of oxygen
It creates an impact so powerful that the soul feels alive like never before
True love never gives up…
It fights till the end…
So if you truly love someone
Express it to that person
If you are having any problems with your partner
Work them out
Don’t let them destroy what you have created
Fight for your love
Don’t let it get away
It's the best gift life can give you
Cherish it
Treasure it
Protect it
'Coz it is the only thing that will always stay with you and support you regardless of anything
Inspector Dork was not pleased with himself

he had interrogated everyone in the house
only to be knocked down by
impenetrable alibi

Spouse Susan slept soundly through the night
and was awakened in the morn
when the alarm bell rang in his room

Daughter Debby's room was a floor down
she was up with her studies
plugged to earphones

Son Simon was out for the night
he was at his friend's place
for a birthday party

Maid Maddie made his bed
when the clock in his master's room
was chiming ten

Butler Bill having served a glass of milk
closed the door behind him
and retired for the night.

Inspector Dork was about to leave the victim's room
when his eyes fell on the clock pendulum

it was not swinging

he knew who was lying.

The sloth is a creature which I can relate.
I do not rush, I'm always late.
It's laboured movements are a wonder to me.
A bit like mine at half past three.
He likes a snooze he sleeps all day.
The same as me if I had my way!
Sloths have beards and so do I.
They hang from trees.
I might just try!
I love sloths and I like their style
They're just like me with my great big smile!
Sometimes I wish I could revisit my childhood…….back then things were so much simpler.I didn’t have to worry about career,job prospects, pay scale, having that someone special in my life, dividing my time between friends and family. Back then I didn’t have any pre-conceived notions about life. I just took each day as it came.I lived in the present without worrying much about the future. My favourite ice-cream or toy would make me happy….playing cricket in the field for hours or laughing and fooling around with my friends made me happy..watching ******-dooby doo or Tom and Jerry made me happy..listening to stories narrated by my dad made me happy…now life just feels so crazy and monotonous…those days of fun and frolic have long disappeared…i am constantly being misunderstood…each and every step I take is constantly scrutinized and questioned..it’s like I’ve lost all freedom…the burden of expectations and the pressure of life at times just gets to me…I feel like screaming my lungs out and drowning in the ocean.I sometimes look in the mirror and can’t recognize myself…who am i?..what have i become?..i miss my old self...the person i once was...I so miss my childhood.
I do as well agree
This world is a sad one indeed
Earth can never be a place of peace
When evil still spread its seeds
Earth can never be home again
When selfishness continue to breed
History told us its tales
With the voice of its victims
And written when they bleed
Cut those pages in million pieces
And make them fire's feed
No magic wand can solve everything
It's only justice, what we really need
