Nyanyano
To grow,
To learn,
To write;
And like your secret love in Nyanyano!
But i met you there in the name of the 'Task Force';
Because you badly needed my assistance! !

Speaker Newt Gingrich has appointed a task force, which I'm on, and over the next couple months the task force is going to try to come up with legislation that does what we're all trying to do. I feel pretty good about the members that are on the task force.

The Task Of Gardening
A task awaits us in the morning,
Pulling my leg and arm for five years.
The days and nights pass for the same task,
Yet these years, we experience a more important ghost.
The tasks are gained by the brain,
And to this are exhortations.
We have goals to achieve, fright to decline,
But when do the flowers of the garden grow
With brains of humans?
The morning needed us when it expressed itself
And made appearances.
The task of the garden is unique.

Secrets
In secret do you love me?
Here and there a tear
Summer leaves can haunt
In secret I use to love you
Now it is no secret
The winter has forced my hand
You must know before I go
Some secrets we keep
Others must be told
Some secrets should be kept
They would hurt others
Flowers are growing again
I feel generous
Resolution is needed
You need to know
I always loved you
I pretended not too
I tried to lie to myself
I wanted to hurt you
I only hurt myself
Reading Pablo Neruda
I have become convicted
I can feel moonlight again
Summer roses grow
I know it is late
We can’t go back
I need to tell this
I still love you
I will die loving you

It could be so nice....
It could be so nice to learn how to fly.
Though it’s a difficult task, but…
Let’s have a try!
It seems an easier task to learn to see a smile
among thousand of angry faces,
but… we are not on the races.
Let’s have a try!
It could be so nice to learn how to dream
and in the dreams to fly in the future.
It could be such an adventure
with knowledge to capture.
It could be so nice to learn how to believe
in love, in joy, in good and kind poems,
in awesome meetings that are random.
It could be so nice to see,
but better to understand,
yourself and others,
your fathers and mothers.
It could be so nice to learn how to live,
to admire the stars in the sky,
to watch the seagulls fly,
to catch and value the moment
with the short name – LIFE.

Judas
How eager he was to make Him
king of the world,
trying to force him to get involved politically.
But the Son of God remains silent
do not call on angels to come to his assistance
and in that dark night watch
torches burn bright while Judas fulfils his task,
soldiers gather around Christ
and suddenly Judas knows that He has another kingdom,
that He causes his love and sacrifice
to circle out to a newer deeper meaning,
bringing it as His greatest offering
and He looks at him, at Judas, with deep compassion
while His love goes through all things.

Another Task At Hand
One more task finished my friend, for what God starts He will end.
He will finish so that you will know, God will help you as you grow.
For God is with you in all you do, God is there to see you through.
God will help you through every task, and all you have to do is ask.
Christ has work prepared for you, in the simple daily tasks you do.
Friend, daily as you do your job, you perform your work as for God.
Just do each task to please The Lord, and your effort is not ignored.
And as you work to serve The Lord, you will reap an eternal reward.
My friend, with The Lord any task, can have fruit that will surely last.
As you do the mundane things, God gives your heart songs to sing.
Friend, even when the day is bleak, simply let The Good Lord speak.
God speaks to you in The Word, in Godly wisdom that you've heard.
God’s Spirit creates in you and me, a witness that all others can see,
That in your job throughout the day, Jesus is with you along the way.
When you work at any place, you can point to His Awesome Grace.
A Grace that sustains me and you, throughout every task that we do.
As you grow you become assured, your daily strength is in The Lord.
For The Lord knows what is best, and in every task you are blessed.
With this task now said and done, you can point to God’s Only Son,
Christ, who is with you every day, through every task along the way.
I Grow Old
I grow old I should feel the cold
I grow old I should have grey hair
I grow old I should sit and stare
I grow old I should have false teeth
I grow old I should have poor sight
I grow old I should forget to write
I grow old I should have aches and pains
I grow old I should 'stroll down memory lane'
I grow old I should walk with a stick
But as I grow old I KICK ASS!
And that's about it!

Private Message
I want you so badly
Too bad that you slammed me
And when you are reading the words I write
You think that I'm just some dumb horny guy
I'm trying to show you
A hint of my coolness
But I can't give up on this secret deed
Cuz love is so empty
When you can cheat
Hold my hand
Tell me that you love me
For who i am
But I can't give up on this secret deed
Cuz love is so empty
When you can cheat
Hold my hand
Tell me that you love
For who i am
I'm trying to show you
A hint of my coolness

If There Is No Poem
IF THERE IS NO POEM/ WHY TRY TO WRITE ONE?
If there is no poem,
Why try to write one?
Why try to force Meaning
Out of nothing?
Why try to pretend to be doing
When one cannot?
Why try to write
When one is not writing?
Why try to be
What one is not?
If there is no poem
Learn to wait
Perhaps it will come-
And if it does not
Live in a universe
Of your own poemlessness
Most people do after all -
Just live
Poemless
In your own inner Silence, Loss, and Longing.

Hitting Rock Bottom
There is no secret
As to how things get done.
It takes initiative...
Desire
And something that sparks agitation,
To ignite a motivatiing push
That begins to drive an ambitious force!
Sometimes hitting rock bottom will do it!
This often supplies just what one is needing,
To get back on one's feet!
Only then are such efforts appreciated...
Without any assistance or intervention approved.

Write It Down In Blue
Everyone knows it, see talks goin' 'round
It ain't no secret 'cause it's all over town
Some people are talkin' that we know so well
Everyone's heard it but the one you can't tell
Write it down in blue
Sorry I don't love you
If you can't face the truth
And you can't say we're through
Write it down in blue
What you are feeling, you just can't explain
Oh you got your reasons, now you just can't change
And there's no way to hide it 'cause baby I can see
So if you can't say it then do this for me
Write it down in blue
Sorry I don't love you
If you can't face the truth
And you can't say we're through
Write it down in blue
Yeah, that's the thing to do
If you can't say it's over
And you can't say we're through
Write it down in blue
Blue, blue, blue
Write it down in blue, oh
Blue, blue, blue
Write it down in blue
Write it down in blue
Everyone knows it, see talks goin' 'round
It ain't no secret it's all over town
Some people are talkin' that we know so well
Everyone's heard it but the one you can't tell
Write it down in blue
Sorry I don't love you
If you can't face the truth
And you can't say we're through
Write it down in blue
Yeah, that's the thing to do
If you can't say it's over
And you can't say we're through
Write it down in blue, oh yeah
Write it down, write it down
Write it down in blue
Write it down, write it down
Write it down in blue

From Mighty Pen
It will not only be evaluated
But in all the directions circulated
Each word read and assessed
The thought behind it accepted and chased
Whatever you write
May not lead to fight
But may be preserved
As you have deserved
Write up is perfect
Speak of good act
One should have always dreamed
Thought of and assumed
Write with pen and pencil
But never mention it as nil
It may make final impression
Fine border with embroidery relation
So to speak less and do more
Some thoughts are needed therefore
To write and leave it for others
To think, act or otherwise bother
Write, write and write
That shall ignite
Your hidden talent
To make solid movement
Readers may not appreciate quickly
But may accept views happily
As it has come from a mighty pen
At a time when needed from noble man

Annemarie
Yahweh came down upon Mount Sinai and,
The ten Commandments were given to us;
But, how many of us are with the Book of the Covenant?
Of a Black Family in the White House,
Of a White Family in the Black House,
Of the longsuffering and abounding in righteousness and truth;
But be very careful not to throw a bomb into the market place,
Because it may also kill your friends and your relatives.
May your house be like the house of Perez and,
May Yahweh be celebrated in Israyl! !
For your bombs have killed many without a clue.
Annemarie, do learn from the secret codes of this world;
And do grow in love always than hate.
Also, tell your friend Yahash about the truth and shed no blood!
But try to repay evil with mercy and hatred with love.
Blessed be your wise counsel to others and,
Live a humble life to enhance the beauty of this earth;
And go to the wilderness of Paran for your teachings.
Of Eth-baal, Eth-el and Beth-el;
Learn the purpose of life to learn better than others,
For the meaning of life is always around you with peace.
Annemarie, there are various forms of philosophies to decieve many;
But look deeper into life itself to gain the wisdom needed,
For many are callled but few are chosen.

Cicero: The Budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed, lest Rome will become bankrupt. People must again learn to work instead of living on public assistance.

Natural part
I am ardent lover of females and admire their part
As they have lots of confusion from where to start
What to accept and what to reject!
There is lot of stress, strain and needed to act
As female so many things are to be compromised
Maintain the tight schedule and stand firma as promised
There is every possibility of getting blame all the times
Yet she is the only person to take us out from difficult times
It will be totally unfair not to give them full credit
There contribution and sacrifice can be written on long sheet
Each page may speak of uphill task faced by them
As enough of care is needed for plant to come out of stem
Male counterparts on the other hand try to be worry free
No tensions at all, go round and make it merry
Whether study or not, every one will love and pin hope
Not much of regret even if he fares badly and flops
How much she has to take at home and outside
Her area of influence is stretched very wide
Even thought she may not be that much appreciated
But role played by her is dominant and definitely noted
World is so cruel at them and inflict several injuries
Add to pain and woes to clearly push into miseries
Thank God, now a day they have become empowered
Yet enough of it has been disregarded and their honor lowered
Basically human being is considered as wild animal
Some of the inherent qualities still same on arrival
He may go wild and do anything to molest woman
For a friction of second he may forget that he is good man
How can one feel secure under such circumstances?
There are lots of raps and murder cases and can be quoted as instances
Yet they are not as strong as they should have been
They are essentially a strong force and must be everywhere seen
No one can think of forgoing natural part
Male and female has different role to play and can’t depart
Let both remain at central place and prove as dominating force
So there is no excuse and reason to feel remorse

I Want You Babe
Oh, i want you babe
I want you all to myself
And now and then
I'm gonna hold you
Tell you that i'm gonna love you
Come with me and i will show you
In a while i'll get to know you
Oh, you know i needed you woman
I needed you, i needed you
Every day and night, right
Now and then
I'm gonna hold you
Tell you that i'm gonna love you
Come with me and i will show you
In a while i'll get to know you
Yeah, yeah, oh
Well, you know what
The secret is i guess
And you think you know
Who your lover's wife is
So you better stop
That thing you're doing
Baby, youre driving me, driving me
Driving me to my ruins
But i, i want you babe
When i was a young man
Always trying to say hello babe
But you'd never know
You live in want
Never knowing that i existed
Till my mind was twisted
I was always trying, sometimes crying
Oh, i needed you, needed you
Needed you ...
Stop that thing that you're doing
Baby, youre driving me, driving me
Driving me to my ruins
Oh, i want you babe
I needed you, i needed you
Every single day
Of my entire life
And everytime i tried
Someone else would come along
There it went again
But now and then
I'm gonna hold you
Tell you that i'm gonna love you
Come with me and i will show you
In a while i'll get to know you
You and me we're gonna make it
Come with me, we mustn't break it

Excellent Path
A path of excellence flows through the life,
An infant asks what we learn for the path;
One man is better at the task than another
For all have tasks that are arduous, that back break.
Infancy is a prize and we carefully count
Their years for all to hear; the hearing is complete.
Excel for them, each will gain their respite,
One man is better at the task than another.
May we fluently speak for our throats,
The throat enables our deliberate thoughts of precision.
The real sages recite the verses of poetry
And write their own prose for all infants to read.
