Trainer On Adult Learning/ Teaching
I welcome each one of you, dear;
Please don’t have any fear
You can see well from the rear;
Just lend me your ear.
I wish to be a facilitator mere;
Today, you may not become a seer;
You need no head-gear;
I’m sure you all can hear.
I’m not an expert but your peer;
The things I tell you aren’t new but near;
What I say could make you veer;
Certainly, you will not tear!
But this isn’t the time for a beer!

A Song to Meggie Dear!
Oh Meggie, you’re a dear;
It seems you lived in fear;
A poem gave you tear;
I feel so sad to hear!
But, God is always near;
We are but weaklings mere;
With God always in rear,
Be happy through the year.
For, Jesus is Savior! x3

100 days as Medical College Dean (C)
They call me as ‘Chief-guest’.
I’ve little time to rest;
I try to do my best;
I try to be well-dressed.
I feel no more suppressed;
I feel no more oppressed;
I feel no more depressed;
But I’m a bit more stressed!
I know I am quite fit;
I improve bit by bit;
My life looks all alit;
I’m wary of the ‘Pit’!
I know the good from bad;
I know life is quite sad;
I know this world’s mad;
God gave me fine a dad!
Worry can spoil the show;
God helps perform somehow;
I dislike having to toe
The line of others’, Oh!
But I’m on my own;
This is a ‘village- town’;
I am not a clown;
God will not me disown!
I have new ideas
Which look like the Himalayas;
Things move slowly, Alas!
But time will surely pass.
My days of glory are near;
I have no favor or fear;
To me, all souls are dear;
But no one must ever tear.
To all, I have an ear;
I must listen and hear
To friend, foe and peer;
And thus must I well steer!
I know that God loves me
Specially, uniquely;
I thank Him so freely;
This world is quite wily!

Sonnet: A Bit More Struggle Will Pay Rich Dividends
Now ain't the time to relax much, brother;
Now is the time to work harder than ev 'r;
About your neighbour, never much bother,
Now is the time to be very clever.
‘Tis ain't correct to retire unhurt;
A stupid man leaves half-way through a game;
In some more time, you can be an expert;
The world will acknowledge your work with fame.
Now is the time to go into top-gear;
Now is the time to sweat from your fore-head;
The future should not cast in you a fear;
Now is the time to be never misled.
Great things are done when man works with courage;
A Bird to fly must come out of its cage.

My dears…
Lend me your ears;
Lend me your eyes;
Lend me your words;
Our attitude, we must mend.
We must make amends;
Sometimes, we must bend;
The stalemate must end;
Our faults, we can’t defend.
To our patients, we must well attend.
On them, we all depend;
They are our Godsend;
Our ways, we must wend!
Let smiles and laughter, the air rend!

Sheer
Deer, seer, sheer, beer, queer, veer;
And like the trafficking of narcotic substances! !
Seer, deer, sheer, beer, queer, veer;
But their full names were withheld for security reasons,
Because of this illicit business!
Appearances,
Declined,
A court of law,
Honoured;
With circumstances beyond your control! !
But, the suspects were handed over.

Fathers’ Day,2009
Greet your father on this day –
Your family’s bread-winner, aye!
If not for his hard-earned pay,
Most things may not be worthwhile to say.
Bless your father on this day;
He deserves your care today;
He’s strict but loving all the way;
He’s your dad who slogs all day.
Hug your daddy; Wish him good health;
He’s the reason behind your wealth;
Kiss your father, show your love;
He’s your guardian angel from above!
‘Fathers’ Day’ comes once a year!
Give a card for your dad dear;
There’s nothing to fear when he is near;
Sing him a special song to hear!

‘Happy Birthday, Mum!
Your ninety years’ of love
To children and all, prove
The mother great and wife,
That you had been all life!
You slogged all life
As mother, wife;
With dogged days rife,
Frequent strife!
Another Marian,
Now nonagenarian;
What wisdom fills your heart,
In things, you’ve done from start!
God bless you mother dear,
And help you better hear,
And keep you from all fear,
And any earthly tear!
‘Happy Birthday, Mum! (10-30-2007)
Avoid becoming glum.’
Lovingly dedicated to my dear mother

Sonnet: “Happy Birthday, Dear Father-in-law.”
Another birthday, God has given you;
’Tis time you thought about your age and health;
God’s love and mercy in life has been true;
Your family and fortitude’s- your wealth.
’Tis time to pray extra: forget the world;
You did your part and duty indeed well;
Protect yourself from injury and cold;
Be wise: take rest and do not become ill.
Remember that you aren’t young anymore;
Your frame is frail and dangers lurk round you;
Your will-power isn’t as strong as before;
A long life-span comes only to a few.
‘Wish you a Happy Birthday, ’ dear Maama!
God be with you in your earthly drama!
From,
Mercy, Celestine, Cathy and Diana

Sonnet: Thanks, Dear Poet Francis Duggan!
When sincere, honest words come from a peer,
Acknowledging a fellow poet’s work,
What joy afills the latter’s heart, Oh dear!
Would not the ecstasy turn him berserk?
The accreditation is charming too;
As words revered come from a heart of love,
And everything mentioned is very true,
I’m sure they’re inspired by God above!
The dedication seems indeed superb;
With foresight that a few poets possess,
The verse appears green like a magic herb!
I pray that God must Francis Duggan bless.
Oh, what a way to laud a poet’s verse!
So, thank you Francis for your poem terse.
Dedicated fondly to Poet Francis Duggan,
As a token of appreciation for his

The Gospel Says …
“You shall be holy for, I am holy”
“You are the chosen people of the One God;
Don’t be afraid to suffer for Christ’s sake;
Rewards await according to your work.
Just do the things God has told you to do;
Just speak what’s needed, nothing more or less;
Just bother not if you can’t understand;
All talents aren’t given to everyone.
Beware of false prophets and men of God;
Keep your soul pure for, death comes like a thief;
God gives the grace for good Christians in life;
No evil can befall them anytime.
Don’t give place to earthly things before God;
Hell was made for devils and wicked souls! ”

Wisdom First!
We worry over things that turn out well;
We tend to break our head by habit much;
Things take a natural time to take their shape;
Could buds become seeds without blossoming?
If landscapes can’t be bettered, let them be;
Each building crumbles however strong-built;
Just take efforts to improve society;
If it will not improve, just don’t worry.
Time will decide and heal all wounds by scar;
Nature will teach lessons through disasters;
Man cannot think that he can rule all things;
The Maker’s more destructive than all man’s!
But man must learn to become quickly wise;
Our earthly stay is too ephemeral;
The aim of life must not be forgotten;
Within the time-frame, let’s do concrete things.
Our spiritual journey must be right on course;
We tend to veer by sins: but keep the road;
The soul must be prepared for Heaven’s gates;
Can God defile His own Holy Abode?

Togo
My friend Hendrick lives in Togo,
So i don visit him from time to time;
But the windows of your love lie next to him.
Dear, pear, hear, fear, wear, sear, tear, clear!
Take a trip with me and let us meet Hendrick;
Bear, ear, gear, hear, queer, rear, year!
He is my friend and i want to introduce himt to you,
For the muse of peace and love need us all.

Bow And Spear
Bow and spear,
Forest and bear,
War and fear!
Hear and clear,
Blew and sear,
Ear and gear,
Clothes and wear,
Face and ear,
Listen and hear,
Pick and tear,
Water and near,
Work and year,
Front and rear,
Love and dear,
Fruit and pear,
Kindness and shear;
But, we need no more war! !

Happy Teacher’s Day in India,2010
Teachers teach students to learn;
Teachers show them how to earn;
Teachers guide students to read;
Teachers help them if they need.
Teachers share with pupils, ken;
Teachers show them how to pen;
Teachers train them in most things;
Teachers make them good earthlings!
Teachers mould their character;
Teachers act facilitator;
Teachers are a boon on earth;
Teachers bring students, mirth!
Teachers care for children-wards;
Teachers don’t expect rewards;
Teachers slog throughout life-span;
Teachers make them man / woman.
Teachers are a humble lot;
Teachers make learning, an art;
Teachers perform well their part;
Teachers love students in heart!
Teachers are next to parents;
Teachers are a nation’s wealth;
Teachers make a student great;
Teachers are a must for all.
Revere teachers on this Day;
Thank them truly in some way;
Emulate them, if you may;
‘Give them good health, God’, you pray!
“Happy Teachers’ Day! ”
Most lovingly dedicated to all my teachers,
Living and dead, who made me,
‘What I am, today! ’

Sledge
Sledge, edge, led, seed, see, gel, lees, deg;
Sprinkle it all over and let me come to you,
For the anointing oil is now with you.
Deer, peer, seer, jeer, beer, veer, leer, queer!
Movable is the muse of your love;
But the performances of the laws are needed by us all,
And like the two male lambs seen around your compound.

Regain Your Confidence, Man!
You were a braver he!
You have a brave she;
Stay confidently;
Time will tick smoothly.
Think of your glorious past;
You are your own ship's mast;
God's grace is very vast;
Never look aghast!
Worrying helps not;
Believe not in lot;
You are a special pot,
This world has ever got!
Things will go on well;
Let mind not turn hell;
Ring the prayer bell;
God's miracles tell.
You had come thus far;
You are one sky's star;
None can be your par;
You are what you are!
Be brave again, man!
Make heart, head strong, you can;
Your brother is your fan;
You aren't a fish in the frying pan!
Take heart once again;
God decides both sun and rain;
Take the boon, not bane;
Your health, you will regain!
CUT YOUR WORRYING HABIT;
SCAMPER LIKE A RABBIT;
FEEL ALWAYS MOST FIT;
KEEP FACE AND HEART LIT!
‘Best of luck! Enjoy your foreign trip! 'Dear brother

Sonnet: People Nowadays!
Yes, everyone whoev’r I meet is queer!
They want to earn money in rapid style;
The bond of love is gone for near and dear;
Unfit to walk, most want to run life’s mile!
A mobile phone is ‘glued’ to every ear;
One’s time is used to clinch off ‘bigger deals’!
Most persons travel miles without much fear;
There is just time for foods-fast and not meals!
The family members scarcely talk / listen;
Their gestures look unreal and clumsy;
With dwindling health, gone is their fore-vision;
They drink aerated waters like‘Pepsi’!
No time for soul- That’s how modern men live;
With greed in sinful hearts, no pie they give!
