Briefs
Those darn Greeks were right-
Enjoy everything but enjoy
in moderation.
For Burns' birthday Duncan
Of Edinborough read.
Why have the imitation
when you can have the masterpiece?
The Past-morals and ideals
murky and opinioned
at worst, but for architecture
undeniably interesting.
Fluent in English, having impulses
and not knowing what else to do
Jon dubbed himself a poet-
gifting the world
with countless examples of his art.
Late for her tryst with Mars
Venus twinkles in-
Nightime otherwise calm and chill.
From fifty centuries of soiled morals
(read agricultural)
Edna struggles to be free
and has almost made it.

One’s tongue is the persistent calyx.
I read and write only in English.
It goes on for the last fifty years.
Yet my comfort zone is my mother tongue,
Only where I enjoy songs and dialogs.

God is the creator
God is the creator
poem is a creation
Poet is not God.
I am a lover of poem
Poet is my hero
God is hero's hero.
I just read poem
I just enjoy reading poem
I shall continue to read poem
As long as I enjoy poem.
At times
Poems are being written by me.
The credit goes to God
God direct me to write poem
And I write.
God only can explain the meaning
I am just an instrument
And nothing.

Concealed to Produce a Seduced Humanity
Those of calculating personalities,
Have manipulated themselves into a brick wall.
And obvious are the intentions,
Of those who circumvent truth.
They are the ones seen navigating away,
In custom made shirts and tailored suits.
On the pursuit,
They say...
To correct morals and fading ideals.
The ones,
In their public address...
They say appeal to standards,
And a certain class...
They've spent time manufacturing.
To market and witnessed to be those trashed.
For the purpose to pocket and run with the cash.
Those of calculating personalities,
Have manipulated themselves into a brick wall.
Obvious are the intentions,
Of those who circumvent truth.
They are the ones seen navigating away,
In custom made shirts and tailored suits.
On the pursuit,
They say...
To correct morals and fading ideals.
Leaving the ones unconcious to debate with zeal.
Although none provide examples,
Where this wholesomeness appeals.
But no one wishes to explain why,
They prefer decadence over righteousness...
Concealed,
To produce a seduced humanity.

Come and enjoy.
Here is poet
Composing poem
Come and read.

Come and see.
Here is flower
Giving fragrance

A further chance
Of joy.

Pollock said several times that he couldn't separate himself from his art. Not knowing much about modern art when I began to read about him, I was much more his persona - his struggles as a human being - that was interesting to me.
Happy Belated Birthday Andy
For my friend Andrew Mark Wilkinson
To Andy, I call him a friend,
but some friend I seem to be,
when I let his birthday pass by,
without saying Happy Birthday.
Therefore, I must apologise
for my oversight my friend.
Although this is nine days late,
May I take this time to say
I hope you had a wonderful Birthday.
I have no excuses for overlooking
a friend from my Birthday poem list.
As I read Andy’s poems almost daily,
I feel guilty that I overlooked his Birthday.
Andy is our resident Romantic poet,
whose poems of love and passion
fills quite a few with joy,
and whose friendship I value.
He writes from the heart
of loves entanglement there,
sometimes mirroring at times his own life.
A great poet and a great friend to all.
Therefore, from this friend who sadly forgot
a Happy Belated Birthday my friend, nine days late.

Temporarily Pissed-off Poem
Why the hell should I respond to
'I'm new to this site, please read
all my poems and
comment (you'll enjoy them) '- when
you haven't the courtesy
or even the guile
to read just the odd poem
of mine? Why should you
trust the judgement of a poet
you don't even admire or
despise?
OK I'll have cooled tomorrow but
I'm glad I've let off steam
and
by the way that first bit applies
to older acquaintances too.
'Lousy poet but
good for a comment', huh?
(OK, guys - the moment passed...)

Today Is My Birthday
Today is my birthday,
I decided to be a little lazy today.
I woke up very late this morning,
I vacuumed, I did some cleaning.
I made my breakfast.
I made a nice omelet very fast.
While eating, I watched a few TV programs,
For about two hours. I am now a few grams
Heavier, I mean a few pounds heavier.
I was going to the gym to make me stronger,
But I decided against that activity.
I wanted to be a little lazy,
To relax, to enjoy the day, and to chill;
I did not want to kill
Myself today.
When it is your birthday,
You should take it easy.
I listened to a few songs of Sinatra,
A few melodies of Nat King Cole.
I had a tiny glass of vodka.
I kicked, for a short time, my soccer ball.
At my age, I feel very young;
I am still happy and strong.
I enjoy life tremendously.
I thank God daily,
I count my blessings, not my failures.
I cherish my victories and use my shortcomings
As powerful lessons, to challenge the adventures
Ahead. Thank God, I have had many good mornings
And many great evenings; I am praying for more.
I also thank my friends that I love forever more.
I pray for the weak and ask God to end man's miseries;
I also pray for my enemies.
Don't kid yourself, you have some too,
They are invisible, they are cuckoo;
They are everywhere looking at you.
So far, it has been a wonderful day,
Even though, the sky is gray,
And it is intermittently raining;
However, in my heart, the sun is shining.
Today is a day to ponder, to relax,
To enjoy and to ignore the sneaky fox.
I am enjoying my day and please do the same,
Relax and enjoy the other days as well.
I wish you well, stay away of the deadly well;
I promise you that I will do the same.
I am waiting to have a magnificent night,
To listen to more classy melodies,
To see the sun, in my dream, at midnight;
And to thank God for all the amenities.
Today is my birthday,
I am really lazy today.

Poet's Soul
I read the poet's souls in the poems,
I read the poet's inner world.
Pulse beats louder, then duller,
And all my doubts are just hurled.
The sadness sometimes a kiss cover,
Then suddenly curled at my feet,
Giving the whole body a heat,
The warmth of a true lover.
Fever passes through nervous points,
Chill runs through the whole body,
I read the poet's souls in the poems,
And feel that the soul is haughty.
I delve into the words and their nature,
Understanding destroys the walls,
Now I would like to capture
The main idea and the poems calls.
I read and my joy is in full swing,
My own soul gets the wings,
I am ready to fly with the singer,
Like me the poet is a swinger.
I am with that one who dared
To plunge into the holy spring naked,
I am with that one who shared
An inspiration and was not faked.
I read the poet's souls in the poems.
But do I read the souls of reality or dream?
Let's deem that no one here and there lies,
And the law of poetry is always precise.

True Independence Day
Sans sincerity, honesty and discipline
Freedom is nowhere to be found ever!
Corruption, malpractice and violence
Ever keep freedom at bay anywhere!
Birds enjoy freedom flying in open sky;
Fish enjoy freedom swimming in deep sea;
Lions and elephants wander as they wish;
Can we ever be free to do so...........at all?
If we are free as birds we enjoy freedom;
But are we really ablate to do so ever.....?
As Poet I have freedom of expression no one
Anywhere has as far as Poetry is concerned!
Man and woman should enjoy freedom ever
Free, frank and fearless as poets and birds are!
That day only the Independence day is true
And celebration of the day is joyful and real

She lies cold as steel
her verses ride on storms
you read, you enjoy
now she rides on flickering lights
between the cells of life
three hours ago she just said goodbye
so softly the wind breathed a life into you
then it was a transition
a secret written in the heavens
she lay now calm as steel
the whole world of verses
could not raise a hair
calm like you would see
the morning sky and its stars
taken up by the very things
they are made to shine

Enjoy Yourself
Written: stock aitken waterman
Intro:
Enjoy it, enjoy it
1:
Never let life
Get you down
When your head is spinning
Feet wont touch the ground
For in this world
The good time you cant plan
Youd better take your chances while you can
Chorus:
Dont wait til tomorrow
When you should be living today
Enjoy it, enjoy it
Before too long its too late
Dont throw the good times away
Enjoy it, enjoy it (repeat)
2:
Dont break up
Inside
When everythings too much
Dont run and hide
For nothing comes to those who will not try
You may just as well have kissed
Your dreams goodbye
Chorus:
3:
For nothing comes to those who hesitate
Grab your dreams before it gets too late
Chorus:
(repeat & fade)

This Poet Is Always Beside You
You are reading my poem but,
This poet is never known;
However, this poet is always beside you.
I am on your lips and,
I am in your mouth;
I am in your heart and,
I am in your mind;
Because, this poet is always beisde you.
This poet writes and others read,
This poet speaks and others listen,
And this poet is always beside you;
But, this poet is never known.
The works of this poet are on the internet,
And, they are being read by many! !
But, this poet is never known;
However, this poet is always beside you.

A Beauty of Love!
I enjoy beauty of star studded night sky;
I enjoy beauty of harmonious waves of sea;
I enjoy beauty of peaceful living of people;
I enjoy beauty of natural poems of poets!
Beauty of human life I enjoy in all forms;
Beauty of fun loving children I enjoy often;
Beauty of smiling flowers I enjoy in garden;
Beauty of art work I enjoy in all forms ever!
World is full of beauty Nature bestows to all;
World is paradise due to love and beauty ever;
World is the abode of man's cultural refinement;
World is the spring board to heaven at the end!
Beauty of love is eternal for all to enjoy in life
Evolving animal into man and man into divine!

One may as well be asleep as to read for anything but to improve his mind and morals, and regulate his conduct.
I have a hard time with morals. All I know is what feels right, what's more important to me is being honest about who you are. Morals I get a little hung up on.
