There are quite a few
Sweet things:
The summer
And the sun,
My cheeks,
Your smile...
Your perfume...
Me writing poems about you.
Some comfy clothes,
The evening lights,
The stars,
The milky way
And mars,
Inline skating,
Even if long time ago,
Playing bongos
And cajon.

It's sweeter even
Just to dance,
To give myself
A daily chance,
To feel free,
And just to move
Only for me,
Nothing to prove.
The beat, the groove
The melody,
Are guiding lights
To me.

The sweetest thing
Is life itself -
To live it fully,
To accept oneself.
Be present now,
Not lost in images
For ages
That keep you
Trapped inside
Your beautiful
Sweet mind.

the wee little ones cry out loudest
fearful of being dying unnoticed
for they're not the stoutest
or profoundest

“we’re always among the forgot,
for we come so quick, oft left to rot,
as you street walk in the early morn
composing on and on and on

and our
sweet little rhymes, smaller than a dime,
oft arrive as twins or even triplets,
so fast and so furious,
they go unwitnessed
so we can’t be recalled,
stillbirthed, unborn,

therefore
we’ve decided to take you hostage,
treatied with your leggings,
no home return permitting
!
until we are recorded,
and given up for adoption”


P. S.
how do ya like them shorties now?
a true story
“ no, he never returned, and his fate is still unknown”

Your flavors dance on my taste buds like a vine.
In lattes, baked goods, and candles so bright,
You bring warmth and joy to my autumn night.

Your aroma fills the crisp air,
Invigorating all who dare
To savor your sweet, spicy delight,
As leaves turn golden, and nights grow tight.

Your magic is in every sip,
A symphony of flavors, a trip
To a land of comfort, and cozy cheer,
Where pumpkin spice brings us near.
Its offically October so I quickly came up with a poem abt pumpkin spice

I watch her dance in the pale moonlight,
Her wild heart that never stays.
Yet for her, the world stands still,
Her sigh breaks men like me.

In every glance, in every sigh,
She holds the world beneath her eyes.
A gentle hand, a steady will,
And when she smiles, the stars ignite.

For love is her, and she is love,
And in her eyes, I see it clear
All that I want, and all that’s dear.

Life is full
Of contradictions.
Embrace them all,
Or you will get bitter,
**** them dry
Til you are sweet!

Do you realise how I smile when your words come into play?
It feels as if He sent you as a reminder in my way.
Through the tears and aches of my weary frame
Your words of “please? Just you and me?” render me tame.

We may not talk for years and ages,
Perhaps only a joke or two between our cages.
But when your white dove drops your letter by my door
I can’t help but believe I feel the sea breeze by the seashore.
bb, if you see this, it is for you :)

The sun doesn't revolve around us,
And it was known to the ancient Hindus.

How they estimated precise distances,
It's still an exclusive paradigm of sorts.

This poem is not a nursery rhyme,
For it discusses what went wrong.

Wrong with the history of Hindus,
And with the tapestry of the world.

Hanging down the global gazebos,
Is a wonderful story of lost wisdom.

I was unlovable,
I know.
But she's the only one
Who proved me wrong

"Ma chérie," she called me.
"You are the sweetest thing!"
"You must be kidding," I said
"I am as bitter as a chord."

"Or bittersweet, perhaps."
Goodness,
How she saw good in everyone,
Even me.

I was beautiful,
I was wonderful,
At least I was in her eyes.
To her, I seemed like the best thing in her life.

But it wasn't true,
I'm useless, and I regret it.
How come she's in my life,
When I don't deserve it?
"Maybe it's a trick," I thought.
"Something fate may have against me?"
