Don't expect pineapple juice from Apples,
So accept and deal with people as they are.

Give it free,
Without accountability.

******,a pouch.....
climbs a blind tiny new born,
Voila! kangaroo.

Itself is a miracle,
And you are the masterpiece.

Has neither guarantee
Nor warranty,
If you get love you are blessed,
If not heartbreak.

Is a worst tenant,
Don't let it rent a space in your head.
15/11/2019.

As I sat under the starlit sky,
I recalled the  wonderful times we had.
I reminiscenced about us to the moon,
I found happiness when the wind whispered  I was in your thoughts all the time.

Why do you follow me on Twitter and Facebook when I have deleted you from my heart.

crispy autumn's here
leaves dance in red and gold frocks
flitting one and all

My brain, my heart and my guts,
Three important organs of my anatomy,
My brain may be to use my logic or intellect,
Sometimes my heart insists to listen to it more,
And my gut feelings never go wrong,
Soronotin sets my moods.

Is to hold my silence,
And choose my words carefully,
Cause wounds pierced by words do not heal easily.

We mature with our mistakes and pain,
Not with years.

As I stepped out of the front door to meet my fiance,
The cheeky full moon followed me,
Hiding behind clouds,
Blushing sweetly.
It lighted my senses,
Magic touched my soul,
The sky blissful.
My fiance and I agreed to have a romantic dinner under the enticing  moonlight,
Feeling love for each other over and over.

She was the lyrics,
the song,
the melody,
But,I was her soul singer.

In life our first teacher
Mother
In life our first friend
mother
Our life itself,
Mother
For she gave us birth.

Giving a little is better,
Than giving in abundance
And flaunting about  it.
I don't give out charity to NGO's or Foundations,
I don't have that much money,
For me my need of giving is greater than the one receiving it.
I never haggle  about prices with hawkers, street vendors or at market places,
For they are day to day earners,
And if they earn a bit more from us they can buy necessities for their children.
I always make a point to visit my friends, family and  neighbours who are sick,
Donate some of my savings
To those in need to cover medical bills.
I also visit the elderly and widows and help them in any way I can.
You must look out for your workers as you would your own.
And I try my utmost to do that.
Being God conscious and doing good deeds is the purpose of my life.

for anything,
And work hard for it,
You will get it,
But if you wish for getting
younger,
Forget it.

looking for my dentures,
the whole house is in uproar,
wife is using them.

The doses of your love you gave him were too much for him,
They gave him side effects.

A house without children is..
peaceful, neat, orderly and quiet,
But, it is bare like a tree without fruits.

It's just an illusion as perceived by the mind.

I love my wife dearly,
But, when my first child was born,
And the little girl wrapped her finger around mine,
She showed me places in my heart I never knew could emote so much love.

On your birthday cake,
Don't count your candles,
Count your blessings.
Blow the candles and say"Amen"
for another fruitful year.

He asked me how much I loved him,
Not as much as the water in the ocean,
Not as many as the stars in the sky,
Not with my heart,
But with my SOUL
The only thing that will remain with us even in the hereafter.
28/8/2021

Let me garland you with the lovely thoughts I have of you hidden in my heart,
When you look at me let me drown you into the pools of my eyes,
I desire to adorn your name on
my lips so that when I am asleep,
I call out only your name in my
dreams.

Interfered with my grandchildren's
upbringing
I brought up my children,
As I deemed fit,
Theirs I leave to my children,
But yes I advise whenever necessary,
Children are sharp witted,
When they want something they are not allowed,
They come to you,
Did your mum the Home Minister give you permission  to be safe.

Open the door of your heart,
Please let me come in,
Give me some space and I will prove I have come to stay,
Forever and forever.
28/6/2019.

If Allah makes me wealthy,
I will raise my standard of giving.
27/1/2025

Why,
Where from,
When,
Which or what way,
I don't know,
I simply love you, only you,
Even my mind and my heart agree.
19/12/2019

If your dreams are fulfilled,
You are blessed,
If not,
Have patience.

I may not be your first love,
Or many after that,
But,I sure will be your last.
My love for you is fathomless,
It does not know the measure of time,
The rate at which it flows,
The weight it carries.
It only knows your soul is connected to my soul,
For today, tomorrow and hereafter.

Dear Society,

           This is to remind you I am your creator and I am in control.
You forgot about me in your euphoria to control the world.
             I always forgive.I am giving you a rare gift to put your house in order. I am giving you time to spend together as families. Time to slow down.
              For years the society is weary and exhausted crying out to me. Mental illnesses  and cases of suicides have increased.
               Rest, play and work at home. Build relationships. Work on projects at home you had dreamed about. Most important learn to be clean. Toilet rolls and sanitizers are not necessary. Clean water and good hygiene is important.
                    You have dirtied mother earth till it had no place to breathe.I warned you.I sent earthquakes, Tsunamis, El Ninos,
Climate Change and fires but, you never listened.
                      Now,distancing you from socializing and putting a stop on industries and staying  at home has done wonders. Mother Earth is breathing again.
                      I hope you have woken up and REMEMBER ME I AM YOUR SAVIOUR.

At eighteen,
A lady is a football
Twenty two men vying for her.
And at 58 she is a table tennis ball
One man pushing her to the other.

Every moment,
It may never come again,
That makes life sweet.
3/9/2023

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.

All through our relationship I was only you,
And I never knew it.
19/5/2020

I wish , how I wish,
Oh!I wish, wish , wish,
Please, please I wish,
I truly wish,
I wish,
I wish,
Fingers crossed,
I wish,
I wish................

My wish comes true.

By your side,
Though you may be better than him and earn more,
Don't act smart,
Instead build him up not down,
Don't nag,
Talk to him and listen to him.
Let him be the head of the family,
Make him feel you are dependent on him,
Let him handle all bills,
All repair works around the house,
Be coy, be grateful,
And show him how much he is needed,
And remember in a fail situation
Use your most important weapon TEARS.
They always work magic.

I wear a hijab,
But it's called Rida
It's in two piece made from silk,  cotton or pastels.
The poncho like top cover the head,chest and arms,
With a small opening in the neck front,
Underneath it is a long lenga type skirt from waist to ankle,
Both the lower sides of the top and skirt are beautifully embroidered, hand painted,laced or crocheted.
It gives me my religious identity,
Preserves my modesty.
It is feminine and attractive,
And it motivates me to adorn it
An elegant rida for a special occasion can be quite expensive.

In my loneliness poetry gives me company.

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."

If you are in love and you know it,
Hold me tight,
If you are in love and you know it,
Say"I love you,"
If you are in love and you know it,
Kiss me on the lips.
If you are in love and you know it,
Say,"I will marry you."
Clap your hands, stomp your feet and "Hurrah!"

I cannot do without my maid,
She is my paracetamol,
I am addicted to her.
She never comes on time,
I have no say, her choice.
She  decides to take days off,
I don't have to ask why?
Her choice.
She arranges the days to do laundry, ironing and shopping,
She keeps an assistance if she needs one,
Her choice.
If she  does not want to hoover under the bed or on the stairs,
Her choice.
She wants to call the cleaners once a month,
Her choice.
And if I put my foot down and she threatens to leave,
Her choice,
She can rule me because I have no choice.

Don't fall,
They rise the person,
Who is loved.
16/6/2025

Your tears under a fake smile,
Like a downpour,
Let them fall,
It's one way to heal.
