Dino and Pichi are lazingOn the cool ground.Their day is relaxing,But they are awaiting a sound. Suddenly, they prance about ---Soon, they’ll have a piece of bone,For there’s a shout,Announcing Mistress is home!Placing her bag on the floor,She’s gree...

Genius

I’m virtually a prisonerOf my own mind.I’m no commoner,Just one of a kind.From very early on,It’s glaringly obvious,Of Math and Science I’m fond,For, in fact, I’m a genius.I’m twelve years old,Teachers can only sigh.Already I’ve a firm hold;On these...

Wishful Thinking

I’m a millionaire,Living a grand life.My head, a mop of thick hair ---Into the ocean, I gracefully dive. On my yacht, girls are sunbathing,Oiled from top to toe.They’re delightfully enchanting,A sight to behold. Coming out of the water,I’m swarmed by...

You’ve many faces,Like rubber masks,Put on in different places ---Nobody thought to ask.You’ve many personalities,For numerous occasions.Combined into all possibilities,Like the various high fashions.You’re so naturalAnd comfortable.There’s no questi...

Spent Force

Since the day you left me,I’ve been unable to see,Why in this world I should remain,To be jovial, I can’t feign.While your death we did expect,It’s not any easier to accept.To me, it’s absolutely unfair,That this bereavement I’ve to bear.I’m only a s...

Rolling Stone

When the sun arises,I’ll make two guesses,On how my day will go,If I’ll find that pot of gold.I’m a rolling stone,Has no permanent home.Though suffering from gout,It’s nothing to worry about.Don’t believe in honest work,But I’m not a jerk.I’d rather...

Jubilation

It’s time to jubilate,For today, I graduate.Four years of slogging;After the final examination,This is the culmination;Tonight, I’ll go clubbing.I’ve finally made it,Miss the routine, not a bit.Was tough being a student,With a rigid timetable.To enjo...

Release Me

It’s a difficult taskConstantly do what you ask.I do try to perform,But can’t forever conform.To please you, I attempt,Yet, I’d like a rare exempt.I’m just an ordinary person,So, please see reason.My mind is in a muddle,Heart, heavy with trouble.I be...

Wasted Life

I had trust in all you said,Faith in everything you did,But you let me down,When you were killed. This is a big disappointment,A bitter pill to swallow.Do you care?Do you even know? Thought we were against you,Determined to put you down,Darkening you...

Young At Heart

Although seventy-six,I’m still young at heart.Others need walking sticks,While I make an early start.The fact is, my good health liesIn saying no to smoking,Apart from the routine exercise,Involves cycling and jogging.Not only am I physically fit,I a...
