Wants- sex definer

A confident woman, the man seeks.
An intelligent man, the woman seeks.

A good-featured woman, the man seeks.
A good-natured man, the woman seeks.

A modest woman, the man seeks.
An intellectual man, the woman seeks.

A virtuous woman, the man seeks.
A chivalrous man, the woman seeks.

Be graceful, women!
Be brave, men!

A Fine Culture

They were indeed simple people
the people of the east
A FINE CULTURE they did have
the people of the east

A FINE CULTURE
the east should have given the rest
when the west brought out the 'machine'
the east brought out the 'human'

Today's world is not lacking in machine
Today's world is lacking in human

Today's east is sending 'productive men' all over
the east should have sent 'human men' all over
How did the east stray?
when did it loose it's way?

The east then found everything in simplicity
simplicity was it's strength and beauty
simplicity gave the east it's integrity
simplicity never ever gave the east an inferiority

Today the east mocks the west
the 'material' wealth of the west..has
put to rest...the
true spirit of the east

We blame it on simplicity
we say we were plundered due to our simplicity
a handed down book on simplicity
only became a liability..we say

What the west had gained
everybody did gain...the 'machine'
what the east had lost
everbody did loose...the 'human'

Today what are we in
an 'un human' man is managing a dangerous dumb 'machine'...and
THAT'S THE DANGER WE ARE IN...without
a fine culture

Henry David Thoreau

Our life is frittered away by detail. An honest man has hardly need to count more than his ten fingers, or in extreme cases he may add his ten toes, and lump the rest. Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity!

True Love

True love passes all understandings.
True love expresses loyalty.
True love hurts but can learn how to mend.
True love dreams the highest dreams.
True love waits until the stars visit the day.
True love seeks good for the other.
True love lends forgiveness.
True love cries but washes away the pains.
True love makes an ignorant boy a mature man.
True love softens the heart of a girl to a nurtured woman.
True love never lies.
True love loves a person until forever.
True love sees love even though the hair is white.
And most of all.TRUE LOVE never breaks promises,

Man cannot be reined.

He seeks another, still younger.
He seeks another, still fresher.
He seeks another, still cuter.
No woman can rein her husband.

Simplicity is not an objective in art, but one achieves simplicity despite one's self by entering into the real sense of things.

Would I Marry You? In A Heartbeat!

Inner heartbeat getting fonder!
Inner heartbeat getting sweet!
Inner heartbeat makes me ponder:
So how come life's incomplete?
Inner heartbeat moving faster!
Inner heartbeat moving strong!
Inner heartbeat prods its master...
So how come the days seem long?
Inner heartbeat stirring new love!
Inner heartbeat stirring sighs!
Inner heartbeat like a warm glove!
So how come this feels so nice?
Inner heartbeat palpitating!
Inner heartbeat passion-filled!
Inner heartbeat can't stand waiting!
So how come that it's so thrilled?
Inner heartbeat seeks its solace...
Inner heartbeat seeks its treat!
Inner heartbeat seeks your first kiss!
That's true love... in a heartbeat...

Simplicity

Simplicity...
Isn't often easy to achieve,
When teased by variety.
And those assortments of life.

Yet when simplicity arrives,
As a necessity...
One is able to breathe deeply,
With a sense of peace and clarity.

The true gourmet, like the true artist, is one of the unhappiest creatures existent. His trouble comes from so seldom finding what he constantly seeks: perfection.

Simplicity is the final achievement. After one has played a vast quantity of notes and more notes, it is simplicity that emerges as the crowning reward of art.

Sonnet XXII. To Simplicity

O! I do love thee, meek Simplicity!
For of thy lays the lulling simpleness
Goes to my heart, and soothes each small distress--
Distress tho' small, yet haply great to me!
'Tis true, on Lady Fortune's gentlest pad
I amble on; yet tho' I know not why,
So sad I am! but should a friend and I
Grow cool and miff, O! I am very sad!
And then with sonnets and with sympathy
My dreamy bosom's mystic woes I pall;
Now of my false friend plaining plaintively,
Now raving at mankind in general:
But whether sad or fierce, 'tis simple all,
All very simple, meek Simplicity.

Design

Badly hit by the simplicity
Moving down the lane
The design
To defeat
The simplicity but it has a great design!
To catch the fancies of the eyes
And to influence the mind.

Gandhiji Seeks Freedom

Bartered for violence, corruption, liquor....
Gandhiji seeks Freedom
Freedom from the heart of currency notes!

Quoted by politics, history, culture....
Gandhiji seeks Freedom
Freedom from the mouth of hypocrisies!

Showcased in squares, in buildings, in cites....
Gandhiji seeks Freedom
Freedom from the eyes of his crucifiers!

Masqueraded by every Tom, Dick and Harry
Gandhiji seeks Freedom
Freedom from the hands of his deceitful dupes!

Stance on Faith

Faith seeks to follow Him
Even through darkest night
And brightest daylight

Faith seeks to do His will
Though contrary to commonsense
And all sound judgment

Faith seeks veracity
And not reasons
Faith stands steadfast
On God’s declaration

My Time Given Seeks No Reward

A stain has been left on it.
A path I pave.
I suspect someone,
Has taken it for granted.
Believing it easy...
To chase me away!

My time given,
Seeks no reward.

Footprints are all over it.
And trashed by disrespect.
Although none of this was expected...
I accept this with regret.

My time given,
Seeks no reward.

To move forward is a personal quest.
Obstacles challenge.
And they will be faced...
With the best from me,
Unseen yet!

My time given,
Seeks no reward.

I am not motivated,
By spotlight!
Or applause.
Nor am I awed,
By my own accomplishments.
Those things done...
Are released.
Not stored.

My time given,
Seeks no reward.

I continue to be 'me'...
Even when I am ignored.
I choose to adventure.
I choose to explore.

And in 'this' time given,
I do not seek to reach for reward.
My mission is not to sit with impatience.
Or wait for an approval...
Until I am bored.

My time given,
Seeks no reward.

Nor do I rush to aboard a ship,
Not of my accord!
To agree or reconcile with to fit!

My time given,
Seeks no reward.
And I will not investigate,
The slithering movements...
Done to deceive by a snake.
