April Fool Phil's in love
And doesn't care what the date is
What matters is the ring on his finger
That matches his Mrs.
Standing before their families
Gathered from across the miles
Beaming smiles toward this happy couple
Praying for years of joy
And precious few troubles.

It was the same old song
Their mates were wondering
When they'd get a move on
Now their mothers are thinking
Of the fruit of the union (Don't deny it)
Meanwhile Phil is planning
Space for a drum kit
(I wrote that before I saw he'd already unpacked it)
And Anna is dreaming
Of a G&T; and just how Phil is so fit

So you'll both be forgiven
For failing to notice the party in heaven:
Thousands of angels cheering
With little discretion.
They just love it you see
When plans come to fruition
When birds of a feather
Find such pleasure together.

And they know for sure
The Lord shares their smiles
Cos two of his children
Can't help but shine
With the happiness that comes
From deep down knowing
That their love is ordained
By their Father in heaven. 

So Phil, so Anna
We stand with the angels
And shout our congratulations
We applaud your vows
With more volume
Than decorum allows,
-
May the Lord bless you
And keep you
May his face shine on you
And give you peace
That will never cease
To give you pause to thank Him
For his Grace.

And all the assembled people said
AMEN.

Yah! Good news arrived, let's say,
Today, I  had a terrific day,
A day of good intentions,
Pacifist is my intentions,
I party by reading and writing,
The library is so inviting,
Here am I, scribbling away,
Today I had a terrific day!
Let's read books to celebrate!

You are my sisters, my neighbors,
my lovers, my friends,
my brothers my cousins,
on whom all depends,
my fathers, my girls, my homies-
my men,

An I'm here to celebrate that fact,
if only society to partake in this pact,

We all share our blood-
by our will - or by chance,
we are connected like dots,
in an eternal dance,

Next time you are feeling,
all ugly and angry-
imagine that lady your Mother,
or maybe the homeless guy,
down on the corner-
imagine that he is your brother,

Would you walk by,
an never look down?

Would you say hi,
yo- what's with the frown?

Or just keep on walking,
just straight into town,

To end with the cry,
HEY just turn around!!!

Right here is a hand -
an I'll help - if I can,
I know it's all part,
of some great master plan,

You know-
between us and the universe-

An don't worry WE got you.

When you smile stars shine and twinkle to celebrate
Your wonderful style and your beauty like sweet lover
When your eyes carry stars to twinkle to coordinate
All heavenly bodies grow, glow to give sweet answer

Universe is ready to serve and to extend its all charms
It kisses you like a lunatic lover to be your real sweetheart
My beloved your beauty blooms in all seasons to norms
To ask for its appreciations by lover never ever to depart

Come and dance with me on my heartbeat and soul's tune
Embrace me and take me for the sake of your sweet beauty
I can feel warmth of your beauty in winter in spring in June
Let me feel free to worship and to your terms to fully agree

My love wants to kiss my lips, they utter her name
In sheer love she is extending a remarkable acclaim
This lovely and wonderful gesture celebrates aflame
Love and beauty are in one frame for common flame

From time immemorial she has taken my heart ,abode
Being a poet she seems to me a love sonnet and an ode
In search of love we have opted to take a common road
My love,love is in chain of your beauty  like a-la-mode

Let us be together and to celebrate love in real harmony
Let's not whisper with wind rather communicate clearly
My love the universe has not seen such wonderful beauty
My beloved give your hand in my hand to cover journey

My beloved is my storybook she resides in my eyes
When ever I look in to the mirror it tells me her story
In the mirror of my heart I see her along with love cries
I do believe in her beauty and her graces just blindly

My beloved you can also see me in the mirror of heart
Consider me the person who in love sees you around
But please take me seriously never ever to just depart
Whatever you consider may be the appropriate ground

Let's celebrate these moments with due care and caution
Let us dangle and dance from land to the open blue sky
In love ,love has its own passion and beauty has its fashion
Let me take you hand in hand to go up to clear sky so high

hurrah, hurrah!
cue to cheers!
for the long writing program
has ended.

quite a journey it
has been!
spilling out words
squinting at pages
and conquering the
flame breathing dragon
in the very end.

so hurrah, hurrah
huzzah, huzzah,
it's over!

Love my love can not develop in mistrust and distrust
It is developed in sincerity of heart and sacrifice of soul
No doubt it is ****** by fortune but to be saved from rust
It does not come in chunks it takes a person as a whole

Beauty also needs purity and chastity by love to discern
If it is polluted it is nothing but just a third class passion
You my love are seeking in the story what is my concern
A thing of beauty needs a specif mannerism and a fashion

Pain refines love and gives color to beauty what I learnt
Love takes life step by step, beauty follows pace to pace
Like a candle burns a moth ,love with beauty is but burnt
But makes love and beauty to glow and celebrate the grace

They say pride comes before a fall
Which I do not believe at all,
For how would we progress unless
We can take pride in our success?
'Tis pride in success I believe
That motivates us to achieve.
So whether they be big or small
Celebrate your achievements all!
Take pride in any job well done
And apologise to no one!
