When I proposed the moon chuckled,
Glowed with joy,
When you said no,
It hid behind the clouds,
Not sad but with regret,
How could you refuse someone like me,
The loss was yours.

Is unselfishness,
Where her children are the centre of her universe.

Become a corpse,
And Rest In Peace,
If you go to Heaven.
Face the fire,
If you go to Hell.

God has you in his keeping
my dearest grandma.

You came into my life like a storm,
Buoyed  me in your rough waters,
Almost drowned me,
Then, you became a lighthouse,
And guided me into calm waters.

Collect me from school,
Big feet,
Small feet,
A purse in one hand,
And my  little hand in another,
We  walk along.
She is never in a hurry,
She seems not to mind if I splash in a puddle on the roadside,
Or stamp on dry leaves under a tree,
Play balancing act on the edge of the pavement,
She will stop so I can pat a puppy or a kitten.
She always has candies for me in her purse,
Sometimes she buys for me an icecream or a hotdog on the way home.
I ask her tons of questions as we walk along,
She answers them all,
My sweet unrushed grandma.

The most beautiful form of wealth is not ~money~
It is to have a peaceful soul,
Blessings of your parents,
Good health,
Great bonding with your siblings,
Love and trust of your spouse,
And laughter of your children.
When you are content and happy.

What  a beautiful relationship
of her and mine,
Neither did she bind me to her
nor did I leave her.

I asked HIM for wealth,
Wish granted,
But, HE  took away my health.

Let there be light in their souls,
And seeds of lies never sprout in their  minds.

Human desires to
Food,
Lust for ***,
Power,
Fame,
Not normal.
Try to control this
Madness
Or
Regret.

I love you more than life,
My dear sweet wife,
My love has no measure,
You are my treasure.
I love you in all seasons,
It has no reasons.
I love you more and more
How much, you cannot know,
It grows,
From a seed, a plant, a tree,
I love you and you love me,
I will take your pain and sorrow if need be.
I fall asleep looking at you,
And wake up with a kiss from you.

Of trying to commit suicide,
Of being depressed,
Help others and make them happy,
Their happiness will rub on you.

Growing old,
I am scared of losing my mobility,
Becoming incompetent.
Afraid, afraid of myself,
When I cannot even make a cup tea,
Sitting by the window in a wheel chair,
Looking at the grey sky,
The stench of a soiled pamper unbearable,
Waiting for somebody to help me.
How could I hold onto material things,
My pride and ego,
When I will be unable to balance a spoon or glass,
And when I drool and spill food on the floor,
My own glaring at me,
A burden.
Anxiety sets in the core of my bones,
When the day will come,
I will have to depend on my children for a glass of water and other needs,
My calls falling on deaf ears
Me a nuisance.
I pray the day does not come,
And if it does,
It does not take too long.

The one who cannot
Respect you
Can never Love you.

It is better to be alone than with people who make you feel alone.

I did not dream of you,
When I bloomed,
You came to me.

pick and eat lice, fleas from furs

Cried and cried stubborn Baby Crocket,
Cause he wanted to go on a rocket,
Mum simply said no,
Dad said,"You know,"
The giant alien will lock you in his locket.

My love is the thorn of the rose,
Though it hurts,
It lasts and has more fragrance,
To love forever.
Unlike the rose that blossoms,
Metes exotic fragrance,
But, soon it wilts and its petals fall off,
An infatuation.

They said I was disable,
But, what about their attitude.
It was more disabled than I.

All my emotions......
spectrum of lovely colours,
Gray was prominent.

MONEY SAVED IS MONEY EARNED
I save from housekeeping and after sometime invest it on share market.

Everyone needs his own space, 
Somewhere quiet,
To talk to the soul ,
And feel life's grace.

Don't expect me  to accept
            DEFEAT.
Sow me among the deadliest
             WEEDS.
And no matter what it takes I will
              BLOOM.
I will turn out to be not the best
               BUT OUTSTANDING.

Has two sides,
The first side will tell you he has been rude or unjust,
He has hurt me,
Look at the other side and ask,
What did I do,
For him to be rude or unjust,
When you get the reason the hurt will lessen,
Sometimes it takes two to tango.

Allah created me free,
So why be a slave to someone,
Use my ideas and creativity for the company's success,
And forget my dreams.
18/7/2022

I fell in love with it,
I took it for long drives,
Parties,
Restaurants,
Even to meet my mum and dad.
I showered it with much love,
Alas! It left me.

Simply goes on.

Wherever their is light there are shadows,
And wherever you go,
The shadow is sure to follow you,
It can be behind,
It can be in front,
And under you.
A shadow is your silent friend,
It mimics me and us
It can crawl, walk or run,
And makes different shapes on the walls with your hands and fingers.
The brighter the light,
Darker your shadow,
And quietly disappear in shady spots.
Shadows are fun,
Children are intrigued  by them.

Does not wait for anyone,
No one knows how much is left for you.

To experience something,
Fling open the door of your mind
and step out,
The world awaits you.

At home mother rules,
Is a meeow.

Your last goodbye was like a sharp knife,
Before it  could scar me,
My secret admirer sailed me to safe waters.

Sad I float by
Like the lonely cloud in the clear sky,
I feel as though like the deep sea,
No one truly knows me.
There are some things I wish not to recall,
Inevitably like rain they must fall,
As dark days behest loneliness,
I search deep within in silence,
I realise what I seek is there in me
Here, there, everywhere free,
Enough my ownself.

I believe in hereafter,
I want to lead such a life so that
I can give in charity,
Part with knowledge beneficial to others,
Teach my children righteousness
so they pray for me.

Nor warranty,
If you get love you are blessed,
If not heartbreak.
