Don’t loose Hope

What the tree saw

Let me tell you a story happened 20 years ago which changed my life. Me and my friends were living peacefully. Cool breeze, birds singing on our branches, children playing around us. Everything was going well, except the monsoons which are hard due to the river beside…

Well one day everything changed.. The land owner decided to make a house. He needed wood for making doors. We came to know about this from the conversation between land owner and the woodcutter.
Well,we wer...

TFL Limerick

Thank you to Shital Shah for her poem, “TFL Limerick”. For anyone unfamiliar with London’s transport system, Transport for London (TFL) is the body with overall responsibility for the capital’s transport. You can find out more about TFL at their website here (https://tfl.gov.uk/).

Strong winds or heat,
Rain, snow or sleet.
Engineering works or strike actions,
Perhaps a leaf causing disruptions.
Whatever the reason, TfL simply can’t defeat.

*Inspired by Thursday’s weather and travel troubles....

Thor

The rain pours
And Thor’s
Hammer knocks
Against crumbling locks
As he our civilisation mocks.

A few, hearing the thunder
Lift their eyes in wonder
From the TV,
While fewer still, know what it is to be free.

School Days

I recall The library’s high shelves
Where I would delve
For books.
Often I forsook
My peers
To read
And on solitude feed.

All those years
Gone by.
I sigh
And wonder why
The past holds such sway.
And we humans lose ourselves in yesterday.
Oh how easy it is to perspective lack
As we gaze back
Down childhood’s track.

I remember the schoolyard’s din
And the wanting to join in.
Sometimes I ran with the crowd
Yet my nature proud
Held me apart
And I solace found in art.

I see the library now
And...

Waltz

It takes a couple to waltz.
With beauty charming
And character disarming
She does dance
And romance
Until the sun’s ray’s lance
The comforting dark
And a new day starts.

Both parties are willing
But does the payment of a shilling
To the girl
Who does so seductively twirl
Render their interaction
An exploititive transaction
And the waltz false?

Dog and Ball

My head full
Of dull
Thought.
Then the ball you caught
And waving your tail
Did derail
My introspection.
How can I suffer dejection
When I recollect your playful snort
And the ball you caught?

What type of poet are you? Find out!

I think my writing style/form most closely approximates to that of painter, however how the poet perceives his own work often differs from how others see it. Kevin

Elliane's Place

Do you like taking tests where you can find out which type of movie character you are? Or what kind of personality you have? I do. No. I have not written a test like that. But I’ve been asking myself what different types of poets there might be. I always like to compare writing poetry to creating art. That’s prob...

Cage

He said, “I have wrought
What I ought
Not to have wrought
And bought
What I ought
Not to have bought.
I have caught
the wild bird
Who’s song I heard
In the lonely night.
Once delight
Of a kind, semed sweet to you and me
And we believed ourselves to be free”.

She said, “There can be no mistaking
That I flew into a cage
Of my own making
And now I rage
Against my own stupidity
And cupidity.
Expensive bras
Make for sturdy bars.
The truth is, you a bird caught
But together we rought
This cage
