She Lives Far Away
I have
Neither seen her
Nor met her
Still I adore her
Talking to her
Motivates me
Listening to her
Inspires me
Her cool behavior
Fascinates me
Her earthly approach
Impresses me
Her commitment
To her family
Encourages me
Her attitude
Enthralls me
Her selfless advice
Helps me
In bringing back
My lost smile
She lives far away
However, I find her
Close to me
I dedicate
This poem to her
She is a friend
Philosopher
Guide to me

Memory Brings Back My Old Friends To Me
Memory
Brings back
My old friends
To me
I can hear them
Talking to me
Their laughter
Enthralls me
Their advice
Encourages me
I feel they are sitting
Very close to me
I feel happy
My mind full of
Peace
I completely forget
They had died
Long ago
Thinking about them
Makes me nostalgic
Revives good time
I had spent with them
Reduces my agony
And loneliness
For a while

I Have A Friend
I have a friend who cannot walk
I have a friend all he does is talk
I have a friend, Philippe is his name
I have a friend and we are just the same
I have a friend he’s seventeen years old
I have a friend who has a heart of gold
I have a friend who would catch me if I fall
It is only that he has no legs at all
I have a friend and when my friend was seven
A car ran over him and he almost went to heaven
I have a friend with a smile that I adore
I have a friend who lives in a house of four
I have a friend his family is his home
I have a friend who dreams of visiting Rome
I have a friend who is still finishing school
Yet some people tell him that for that he is a fool
I have a friend they say he is disabled
He has no legs and for that he is labeled
I have a friend who has a friend
They were made for each other; their love will never end
I have a friend who likes to name the stars
I have a friend and what he hates is cars
I have a friend who’s happier than you and me
I have a friend who’s shown me how happy I can be
I have a friend who’s had his bad times too
I have a friend who’s better than me and you
I have a friend so dear to me and kind
That another one like him I shall never find!

She Is A True Friend To Me
She came into my life
Neither as a girl friend
Nor as a wife
An accidental Introduction
Brought her to limelight
Her coming was like
Drops of water on dried lips
Which quenches the thirst?
Reduces the agony
Gives new lease to life
Makes the person regain
Lost smile
She acts as a friend
Philosopher and guide
She is now a part of my
Hearts family
More than anything
She is a true friend to me

0013 And, Friend...
and if you wonder, friend, why I begin
a poem thus – you are to understand
that it’s as if
we have been close friends all our life,
friends, as Kabir defined a friend
as if no-one ever tried to speak of friend before –
friends, who share the silences between their words
as much as sharing their most inward thoughts;
so, our conversation’s just as much
a continuation of our friendship,
wasting no time in speaking passing things,
sharing some new thought in turn
and asking more for listening
than easy agreement for politeness’ sake;
for, we’re listening to the allness of the all -
all that has been said and
all that cannot yet be said
but thought in silences, in pauses between speech,
all that we might say
when we find words in which to say it,
and because
there’s not much time, to say what we would say
and so, we speak of that which time
can never steal; so there is always time
to speak, and hear the silence
out of which speech comes;
listening for the unspoken
bringing miracles

Don't Come Around
i have finally faced it
the well is dry
and we're not gonna make it
out of the war alive
he brings me close and says to me
lets make this a happy ending
and try to stay friends
but you see
if this love affair was happy
then it would not end
and i don't wanna be
one of your friends
if we must break up
then that's where it ends
so please don't come around
bringing me down
listening for your love
i don't hear a sound
please don't come around
bringing me down
tossin' and turnin'
my smile's upside down
don't invite me out to dinner
don't call me on the phone
you wanted to leave me baby
so won't you leave me alone
so please don't come around
bringing me down
listening for your love
i don't hear a sound
please don't come around
bringing me down
tossin' and turnin'
my smile's upside down
it's all or nothing
we'll be one or none
right now you need to know
that I cannot begin again
after what just happened
this ain't no tv show
my heart's completely broke
so...
so please don't come around
bringing me down
listening for your love
i don't hear a sound
please don't come around
bringing me down
tossin' and turnin'
my smile's upside down
and i miss your love baby
and i miss your lovin'
so stay away from me

For a Lost Poem
Dedicated to the poem 'Moon Light' that was written a few years back.
For a Lost Poem
A poem written long ago –
disappeared on the face of the earth
as if it never existed – but somewhere
beyond this skyline it did;
where the moon sits, and shines its light –
this poem has been erased from history,
from where it was put into storage.
Oh poem, I feel a loss for you!
Where have you gone? Oh where have you gone?
Moon Light, once many people read,
and praised me for such delicacy,
now she is gone too.
As if death has to come with:
the darkening sky, oh ye poem –
ye selfless poem come back and
let the light shine upon you.
A poem has gone, but where?

What else do I want?
If my poem brings happiness to someone,
What else do I want?
If my poem makes someone forget his sorrow,
What else do I want?
If my poem brings back someone's smile,
What else do I want?
If my poem inspires someone,
What else do I want?
Nothing else I want to ask Almighty
But make me write beautiful poems on and on.

Bear
I watched him grow from a baby to a boy
from a boy to a man
but as he lay there as if he was a sleep
so peacefully
tears began to run wildly down my face
for it was all over
why so early in life
he was barley a year
as he soared to the heavens
he took more then his
heart and sole
he took a little bit of everyone’s in my family
he was like a nephew to me
and her son
why was he taken from her
so early
Tido
lost more then a companion
he lost a friend
a play mate
and a brother
but she has lost a son
what will she ever do with out him
no one will ever know
but her
I’ve lost a nephew
our mom and dad a grand child
Tido a brother
Sierra a play mate
Maggie and Katie a friend
and
Cassie a son
p.s. I dedicate this poem to Bear
Cassie’s dog that died 3-25-07
from being hit by a car

I Suspect You Are Free of Them
You wish to mention,
My flaws are faulted?
Yet somehow that motivates me...
To expose them even more!
Since I do not waste my time,
To find yours.
I suspect you are free of them?
Or you are too aware.
Hoping the degrading of others...
Impresses someone,
To believe you have none!
None you would dare to self examine.

Once I Had
Once I had a friend
They would brighten up my day
Once I had a friend
Till they took it all away
Once I had a friend
To share my load and carry on
Once I had a friend
And now that friend is gone
My advice is when you love someone
Tell them every single day
And when they make you smile
Send a smile back their way
For life is not about money
And life is not about gold
If you have a friend you’re richer
Than most will ever know
A friend sees us through hard times
Holds our hand when we’re alone
A friend is one that loves us
No matter what we’ve done
So if you find a friendship
That brings you to your knees
Just know you can’t hold one
When someone wants to leave
Because to truly love another
To truly love and care
You give them what they seek
Even if they can’t be there

Shani the young poetess from Massachusetts
She knows much but talks very less
And she attached to us before we leave for California.
I learned a lot of things in this fragile life from her innocent smile
And it's a hidden poem really that never published.
* I dedicate this poem in gratitude to her courageous family who gave us tremendous help as same as hospitality in our hard times in the USA.

To Find My Family
To find my family, is no more
I found my family that is to adore
I feel as if i'm complete
Isn't life just so sweet
To find my family is no more
I feel as if I could soar.
To find my family was a dream
Now my family flows down the stream
To find family, is no more
I've completed my family tree chore.

Love For His Woman
Seeing the book shelves
Scented smell of those books
Romeo and Juliet stories
Admiration of each other presence
Talking the whole day at school
Still having ears for your love
Never get tired to see her
Inspiration of each other acceptance
Listening to her how her day went on
Sitting right beside each other taking the tea after the school
Laughing along on those funny jokes
Encourages each other to always end the day happily
Unconditional love for her by seeing himself in her
Talking about her inner beauty
Listening to his heart by calling her a destiny
Growing the age gracefully with togetherness

Unveiling
Its a custom we have
were a year has passed
since loved ones
have gone to heavens pearly gates
We gather together
close family and friends
to uncover the tombstone
of our family who bares our name
With love and respect
we uncover the stone
from ministers, brothers,
sisters, grandchildren, greats and friends
Its our last farewell
were we sing and praise
and acknowledge our loved ones
that have passed away
It helps us the living
to move on in our lives
we smile in remembrance
of what full lives they had
with one final prayer
we all bow our heads
and give thanks to the lord
for giving them our loved ones
to be a part of our lives
So one final note
to my Mum and my Dad
your always remember
for ever in our hearts
for now and evermore

Come smile at me again
Come smile at me
come smile at me again.
And use the only smile you have,
the selfless and exquisite one.
And keep your eyes on me.
I'd like to study
the nuances of your smile.
Come look at me.
Come look at me again.
And use the only look you have:
The one of pure
Manuka Honey.
And keep your look on me.
I'd like to study
all the markings on your face.
Come close to me.
Come close to me again.
And hold your warm and tender body close to mine.
Come closer yet.
I'd like to study
YOU,
and hope to never graduate.

Cast Your Bread Upon The Waters
We may, to someone, hand a tract, and never receive anything back,
In the way of thanks or gratitude, while sometimes only their attitude,
Maybe a scoffing gesture or worse, the evil utterance of one’s curse,
Still, upon the waters cast your bread, thinking upon Eternity instead.
All the time and effort we spend, as we reach out to others my friend,
Will not be noticed by everyone, but, the work is for God’s Dear Son,
And God’s impact, we do not know, from the signs others may show,
For the outcome is God’s alone, to give growth to seeds we’ve sown.
All earthly tasks will be meaningless, as we step into an Eternal Bliss,
Knowing that our time upon the earth, will be judged for eternal worth,
And did we live for God’s Kingdom, as Bold Witnesses for The Son?
Pointing those who may still be lost, to the Blood of Calvary’s Cross.
Friend, all vanity shall soon depart, from within every Believer’s heart,
The moment we step into Eternity, and our Savior’s face we shall see,
Until then, for us to be like Christ, we must become a Living Sacrifice,
Giving our lives to Christ, our Lord, with every moment we can afford.
When our bread, on the water is cast, the rewards will for eternity last,
As for our Savior, we do our part, and His Gospel of Truth we impart,
To all those upon this earthly sod, so they can join the family of God,
And enter into His Kingdom above, by embracing His Truth and Love.
(Copyright ©12/2008)
A friend drops their plans when you're in trouble, shares joy in your accomplishments, feels sad when you're in pain. A friend encourages your dreams and offers advice--but when you don't follow it, they still respect and love you.

Missing You.
We were close
as close as could be
You were my faith in life
my reason to believe
Believe in happiness
the happiness you brought each day
Now all is lost
all the words I didn't get to say
Say that you were my saviour
my guide through the pain
The only one
keeping me sane
Sane as you can be
in this world of disbelieve
All is drowned
in my world filled with grief
Grief that tears me apart
bringing me to defeat
Shadows embrace me
bringing eternal sleep
Sleep is my enemy
against the raging fire
Burning deep inside
filling my heart with desire
Desire for a moment
A moment of peace again
I miss being happy
I miss you my friend

Hilikus
About a hundred years ago now,
Thought I was left for dead.
Soliloquy, she was my...
A picture, a wake,
My metaphoric friend.
So then I fell in love with an irony named life,
It taught me this from that and...
A picture, a wake, youre gonna be hilikus.
History has a tendency
To block yout the popular beliefs
About the leaders of the time,
So glisten with my syllables and
Ponder the thought,
Maybe they should have
Had to dedicate more to it, go!
Youve got to be,
So good to be,
Youve got to be hilikus!
So I took a walk out side
With my new found friend and the knowledge imbibe.
I figured Id find another
With the same attitude,
Yes, then maybe I could talk
To someone other than myself!
The doors are swinging wide open,
A positive attitude and the ilk in my pocket
Had a lot to do with my new found friend,
The hilikus.
History has a tendency
To block out the popular beliefs
About the leaders of the time,
So glisten with my syllables and
Ponder the thought,
Maybe they should have had to dedicate more to it, go!
Youve got to be,
So good to be,
Youve got to be

Tonight
Tonight
Do we have to fight again
Tonight?
I just want to go to sleep
Turn out the light
But you want to carry grudges
Oh, nine times out of ten
Oh, I see the storm approaching
Long before the rain starts falling
Tonight
Does it have to be the old thing
Tonight?
Oh, its late, too late
To chase the rainbow that youre after
Id like to find a compromise
Oh, and place it in your hands
My eyes are blind, my ears cant hear
Oh, and I cannot find the time
Tonight
Just let the curtains close in silence
Why not approach with less defiance
The man whod love to see you smile
Whod love to see you smile
Tonight
Tonight
Just let the curtains close in silence
Tonight
Why not approach with less defiance
The man whod love to see your smile
The man whod love to see your smile
The man whod love to see your smile
Tonight
