Thank you

Thanks for being you
Thanks for being true

For you I always have a dozen thanks
For you I forever have a bank of thanks
And let me be quite plain and frank
I hold you high up in my heart of ranks

Thank you being there
Showing me constant love and care
Thank you for your patience
It does play upon my conscience

This eight letter word
For you is a price I can always afford
And when my voice in appreciation clanks
With these words just know it aint no prank

Thank you for your humour
With you laughter is an emotion I can explore
Thank you for being nice
They say true friendship comes without a price

Thank you for being you
And for demonstrating what it is to be true
Thank you being good
And for forever lifting up my fluctuating mood

Little words like Sorry

Little words make me cry
Common go ahead and try
Little words tell no lie
Like the simple word when I say goodbye

Little words tend to tease
Little words tend to appease
And when one says the word please
Life and love is given a new lease

Little words like sorry, don’t worry
Blossom slowly in little glories
And the moral of this story
Is that ‘sorry’ is often said in a hurry

My Strenght

Bear faith and strength will come
Seek it and strength will come
Sing, Sing
It’s with strength you belong

I listened as an angel sang her song

Take heed now
My weakness has been your strength
But no more!
For sure!

Take heed now
My kindness you abused at length
But no more!
For sure!

Take heed now
I stopped believing in me
Topped up with your deceiving
I flopped thinking
I was not worthy of receiving
But no more!
For sure!

Behold a stranger came and walked my way
Bringing along her golden sunrays

I found my strength at long last
I found my strength at long last within me
I found my strength at long last to be free
I found my strength at long last, you see!
You are now a thing of the past
‘You, ’ I sing. ‘Are merely an outcast’

If I were a girl

If I were a girl
I'll wake up each day
I'll tell myself to go and learn at school
No fancy mini-skirts, No acting cool as a fool
I'll play it safe with a boy
Simple jokes and simple joys
I’ll stand-up for only love and equality
Not for some stupid momentary flattery
These silly lines inspire only immorality

If I were a girl
I think you would understand
How it feels to be constantly disrespected
Treated as a feminine reject even if an intellect
Thought off often as a sexual object or project
I swear I’d be a much tougher woman
I'll take out my dustpan, Let everyone
Start slowly again from where it all began

But I’m just a girl
It feels like a pitiful spell
To be forever taken for granted
Whether I’m multi-skilled or talented

If I were a girl
There will be no wedding bells
Until I'm completely educated as well
I'll always take care of me
I'll always hold onto dreams
And any boy who says he loves me
Will have to work with me as a team

But I’m just a girl
And I don’t want a life of hell
I want to play with cars and not just dolls
And besides a boy I always want to be an equal

First Time

I had never thought
We were hanging on
But the fall looks very far
Staring at the ground
What flesh will do to you
Will do to me too
Be free and on your own
Its not that simple
Its never that simple
It feels like the first time
That wed fallen behind
And we faltered too far down
No one could save us
It feels like the first time
And were standing about them
And no one can touch us
The worst is over
I could say to you
A bitter word or two
Theres no stopping now
Just get it out in the air
Heard it through the fog
And hurt by it all
Id take it back today
But its out of my hands
Lost in the film again
All the signs were showing
Watching a single frame
When the wind begins
Youre never anywhere
cause youre caught in my
Weather every time
Feels like the first time
Wed fallen behind
No use is the other one to wait
But I can hold on
As sure as Im strong
Get over the faithful yesterdays

Will you be my friend?

Will you be my friend?
In a gentle manner he asks
Will you be my friend?
Or is that too much of a task?

Many a time when feeling lonely
I long to be loved
Welcomed and made to feel homely

A friend I need
One who can share my joys
Friendship I seek, and not to destroy

A friend I need
Someone not afraid to tell me off
When ever I am wrong
Instead encourage me to be strong

Someone who can
Life my spirits when I am down
Not look upon me with a frown

Will you be my friend?
In a gentle manner he asks
Will you be my friend?
Or is that too much of a task?

‘Why me’ she curiously asks
I’m no beauty behind my mask

And he replies, ’ Because you are so gentle’
Patiently understanding and simple

You exhibit utmost kindness
The title friendship goddess
Is yours, if I am honest with gladness
You display compassion and intelligence
You never judge and there is no pretence
My life with you will make a difference

We rhyme together in towns
And joke around like clowns
When we talk on the phone
I merrily feel not alone
You shine like the sun and are fun
You are always there with support
Continuously making sacrificial efforts

Well then, I am already your friend
She says, ‘unless you want our friendship to end.’

The Perfect Miracle

I have found
The perfect miracle
In a simple prayer

Forgive me
Love me
Hold me
Guide me

Lord I thank thee

I do not expect an answer

I believe in

I believe in having good friends
They keep you up to date
With the latest fashion trends

I believe in telling jokes
I want to laugh regularly
Until I choke

I believe in being serious
There is always an air
Of you being mysterious
Even if there is nothing there

I believe in good sex
It is a good form of exercise
Even though it can be complex

I believe in love
Be it from down below
Or heaven-sent from above

I believe in fate
It is not something you create
It just happens out of the sudden

I believe in luck
But only when it works
When it doesn’t I just mock

I believe in hard work
Not only talk, talk, talk
It is work that earns you the buck

I believe in you
But sometimes do wonder
If all the things you say are true

I believe in good food
Spiced with romance after
To lighten up the mood

I believe in making babies
Then turning them
To gentlemen and ladies

I believe in courage
Strength with sense and not rage

I believe in dreams
But not the ones that make you scream

I believe in God
No ones knowledge and power
Is that vastly broad

And last of all
I believe in me

If I stopped believing
Then life’s wonderful gifts
Would not be worth receiving

She called me a bitch

Last night I got an email
From one of my dedicated reading fans
A poetic reader and writer of a woman

She called me an arrogant bitch
I called her an old ugly witch
Which is which?

I wish she had read my poem entitled
'You are not intelligent enough'
Give praise to where its due
To her I spelt it out in black and blue
If you cannot distinguish
Between reality and fiction
Remove those old restrictions
From your brain, send them out
With a letter of eviction

Yes I am a bitch
Read my poem entitled “Bitch' Mrs. Bitch
You want from me sweet words
In response, to your sarcastic ones, Mrs. Bitch
You must be joking, stop me from choking
And In my simple honesty

She called me an arrogant bitch
I called her an old hideous witch
Now she doesn’t know anymore,
Which is which?

The Sun

Long before mankind was born
Alone stood a star called ‘The Sun’

The sun thought
So often alone a lot

One day the sun thought
If I could be that daylight indicator
A kind of happiness creator
On earth and allow my sunshine rays to run
I shall indeed be the true originator of fun

I can decide to wake up everyday at dawn
Not only will I be the source of light
But also the source of life
When people see me, it is that simple
Only smiles on their faces will be worn

When I rise
They shall all walk in my shadow
And the wise
Will take shelter, as my intensity flows

And so its journey begun
Now everyone wants a piece of the sun
Now everyone wants a piece of its warmth
Sometimes I wonder what will become of us
Long when the sun is gone!

Simple Thoughts

Simple thoughts
Simple minds
Draw up the curtain blinds
Lets see what is inside

A long weary journey home
built in a city far from Rome
With each gear the thoughts accelerate
Dreading the point when home is near

Shortly they disintegrate into fragments
Framents of love
Fragments of hope
Fragments of light in
the middle of night
Fragments of a peaceful bed
To rest ones tired swollen body
from a days work
after been well fed

They disintegrate into
Fragments of a night drink
All the bitterness and sorrow
can now sink
The mind can no longer think

Good Bad Friendship

A bad friendship
is like a sinking ship

A good friendship
Don't trade for riches, try to keep

It is not always okay to share
cries and laughter
with total strangers

A good friendship is the only bond
That can be compared to a precious little diamond

Make a wish
While you drink like a fish
Maybe the lady in red
Will descend on your lips with a kiss
Before the bouncer throws you out
Of the club in one piece

Thank You, Mom

Thank you Mom
Thank you Mom

Where I come from
Mom is the word for some

To my Mom
I send you my loving storm
in 'Thank you' forms

Thank you Mom, for bringing me to earth
Thank you Mom, for showing me daily love
Thank you Mom, for being my best friend
Thank you Mom, for your reassuring words
Thank you Mom, for always been there

I may have let you down a few times
But you always forgive me my crimes

Mom you are the best
Mom you are better than all the rest
Mom, I love you, I love you
Hope this is easy for you to digest!

Still love you

I still love you
Care enough to wish you well
I will dream of our sweet kisses
Till they slip away in time
Out of grasp
And out of mind

I still love you
It hurts and its true
I know I have to set you free
Like a bird flying out of its nest
For the very first time

If only you could hear my heart
pounding and pounding
There might have been second thoughts
My tears I have bravely fought
Our dreams which we once dutifully sought
Now lie buried in forgotten grounds
It is with all my love
That I end these words
I still love you

Fountain of Love

Bestow upon me a fountain of love
Let me taste your purity in its true form
I who stand here believe in your love
Whether it decides to go or come
Depending on the season that spreads
Across the years for simple reasons

Restore my faith in love with every sprinkle
Adore my faith as I bath in you
Harmoniously in youth and age with every wrinkle
Together and forever
I salute thee!

I believe that love
Starts with a smile
That lasts longer than just a while

I believe that love
Feeds our hearts together
And mostly enduringly forever

I believe that love
Is only existent
When truly deemed as important

Important it shall be
To those who want to be free
To those who want to feel and see
As you bubble out the essence of love

The Ocean I know!

I know it to be true
That the ocean sea is blue

I know it to be true
The mountains compliment the ocean
The fountains supplement the ocean

I know it to be true
The ocean is extremely salty
Inhabited by fishes of various faculties

I know it to be true
The ocean is a source of food and minerals
Embellished with floors of pearls, shells and corals

I know it to be true;
That infinite battles have been fought
Across stormy tidal and calmly ocean waves
Where slaves have been sold and bought
With freedom won not merely by a simple handshake

I know it to be true;
That down below is an amazing picture
Of many a wonderful sea creature
That fishermen, endlessly try to capture

What about the water sports being featured?
Swimming, diving, boating, and waterskiing
All written excitingly in the oceans scripture

Still the ocean sometimes doesn’t know how to behave
When they come marching, those ginormous tidal waves!
All those present become a slave to its oceanic graves

And yet I know it to be true
If we shave all the water of the oceans carpet
Living will not be worth it on this planet!
