poems

After a few workshops on poetry,I find the creative juice brewing again.

all about LOVE

Love
How can you calculate?
It's priceless like the stars
or
countless like my hair
That's how they propagate

Love
How can you legislate?
My love is free for ALL?
Why limit it to only four?
or
Is one too many?

Love
In my heart,a jump,a misbeat
when I fall for a misfit
Just to repair it
I need more than a toolkit

Love
it's over,kaput,finito
it has reached its use by date
Its effects I find ways to mitigate
Not a cent in my pocket
But still you press to litigate

Love
wonder where it all went
one thing for sure you're hell bent
to investigate
sniff,sniff,on my shirt
Is that some strange scent?

new year

I hate making new year resolutions for they only make me guilty

how about losing 10 kg by eating tiramisu,ice cream and chocolates
or have bundles of energy by watching all night movies
or a house that has furnishings that automatically self clean
or a furry puppy that doesn't poo or pee
or plants that grow and flourish in waterless conditions
or fairy tales that come true
or peace that prevails
or climate that self corrects itself
or rubbish that doesn't stink
and rats that loves cats
or new years that just come
without loud bangs
starts with a sizzle
and then fizzles
