Thanks!

Thanks for all your appreciation
I value it alot
Normally no-one cares
And they all just call me a swat

Thanks for all your appreciation
It's boosted my confidence
Poems are my passion
And stop me putting up a fence

Thanks for all your appreciation
You helped me see sense
Thank you so much
Because most people are against

Thanks for your appreciation
You're the only ones who care
I now beleive in myself
I really do, I swear

Thanks for your appreciation
It really is appreciated
And once again
Thanks to you all
For being so updated

The aim of life is appreciation; there is no sense in not appreciating things; and there is no sense in having more of them if you have less appreciation of them.

The good father

This is the one who can not eat if his children do not eat
This is the who wear unexpensive clothes while his children wear expensive ones
This the one who sacrifice his problems for his children
This is the one who works every day for his children
This the one who can sleep outside the house while his children are inside

Are the children showing the appreciation to his efforts?
Are the children showing sense of appreciation about his love to them?
They show appreciation by writing poems for him
They show love by consoling him when he is in trouble

A good father should be innocent
A good father should act as a head of the family
A good father should give support to the family
The location known as Silityiwa has got such father
This father is known as Sonwabisile Lateta and he is “my” father

Sonnet: Eternal Echoes

All men on earth just love to feel much loved,
For whatever things little, they may do;
Appreciation gets their life-boat towed;
They go to do things better always too.

Appreciation makes the diff’rence then,
Between achiever and those who’re silent;
Mere body-language takes mind to Heaven!
The wanted feeling gives the man his bent.

Just criticize without a bias then;
Do not deride a man’s demerits much;
Misjudge him not for lack of proper ken,
But think of ways to give him ‘Midas-touch.’

See others in their right perspective then;
The environment is not the same for men.

Aloof, Cool And Haughty

There are not too many places,
Where the showing of one's appreciation...
Is disregarded.
And instead of accepting one's positive comments,
About what it is they do,
People will think anything mentioned about that...
Is an act of patronizing.

AND...
It 'is' when giving another one's support.
HOWEVER,
In some places this is regarded as being...
Aloof, cool and haughty.
So what is one left to do to leave minds like this,
Left to eventually dismiss?
One becomes...
Aloof, cool and haughty to please expectations.

Like I said,
There are not too many places,
Where the showing of one's appreciation...
Is disregarded.
But...
Places like this do exist.

Birth Images Etched Into Conscious Beings

thoughts are instant born
upon pages of mind art
gifted onto screens of life
painted into love joy swift

images knowing create
beauty in mind refreshes
as art embraces skill art

in appreciation we shall paint
together write birth images
etched into conscious beings

The Risk Is in the Giving

The risk is in the giving,
Not the taking of a gift one gets.
Many times that which is given,
An appreciation returned...
Seldom comes with it.

People take advantage,
Of what comes...
As a deed to please.
With an inspection to put a value,
On that which is received.

With a showing of an ungratefulness,
The giver of the gift to give...
Often leaves with this believed.

People take advantage,
Of what comes...
As a deed to please.
With an inspection to put a value,
On that which is received.

The risk is in the giving,
Not the taking of a gift one gets.
Many times that which is given,
An appreciation returned...
Seldom comes with it.

And when one does hear from another,
A thankfulness expressed.
The one who is gifted expresses this,
With an acknowledgement...
It is 'not' the gift one gets,
But the thoughtfulness of the one who gives...
And that is the exchange one does not soon forget.

Unintending To Be Perceived As Offensive

I accept with appreciation,
Compliments from others.
Who become aware of my attempts.

Sometimes I wish,
I could express more enthusiasm.
To show such thankfulness for such gifts.

And this I've done for many years in my routines.
With a doing done I do,
In a process that of my creation sees.

I accept with appreciation,
Compliments from others.
Who become aware of my attempts.

Sometimes I wish,
I could express more enthusiasm.
To show such thankfulness for such gifts.

And I do say, 'Thank you.'
Since I am grateful for the attention my gifts get.
Although I consider myself an 'elf' sometimes,
Just doing my part as God's work in progress.

With a doing at times God knows,
Can be a bit mischievous with a willingness unintending.
To be perceived as offensive when that deed I do gets done.

Thank You

I was young (bop)
And didnt have no where to run
I needed to (wake up) and see (and see)
Whats in front of me (na-na-op)
There had to be, a better way
To show Im grateful (hum)
So I thought up this song
To show my appreciation for lovin me so long
You dont know how much you mean to me
Chorus:
Cause even though when times got rough
You never turned away
You were right there
And I thank you (thank you)
When I felt I had enough
You never turned away
You were right there
And I thank you (thank you)
All through my life
I knew that youd be my world
Knowing every where I go
Things you taught me they would show
So many times and changes
Youve seen me through
I sure enough couldnt have survived without you
And so I thought up this song
To show my appreciation for lovin me so long
You dont know how much you mean to me
Chorus

The endangered tribes

If someone has helped someone
Which you would hesitate to do,
You must compliment such person
With the words of appreciation.

When someone came to rescue you
Which you would refrain from doing
If you were in his shoes that time,
You must compensate him fairly.

We must identify such men
And nurture them with utmost care,
Even it demands some sacrifice.
Such men are the endangered tribes.

See, that's all you're thinking about, is winning. You're confirming your sense of self- worth through outward reward instead of through inner appreciation.

How To Respond!

Oh, Lord how to react to my elders?
How to pay gratitude to all my readers?
What a hidden well wishers they are?
I was pushed simply very far

How could I dispel their feelings?
Was I ever ready or willing?
How can well knit organization be left?
How can there be overnight shift?

I misjudged the reader's mood
Poetry is just tonic and food
It has divine infusion with great thrust
We all must pray almighty for its preservation and is must

I shall stay and must continue
Must give to larger audience whatever is their due
What is their in appreciation or condemnation
It is permanent bond and solidly laid foundation

Let each brick carry its own weight
Then only building can gain its height
The stone at the base can see with honor and pride
I must uphold this view and never hide

They are no seized with domestic problems
But disgruntled with happenings around them
Some of the poems may not appeal them earnestly
This is a normal cause and I must admit it frankly

If all the pots made by potters find the way
Not a place in market will be left to stay
Some poems may find applaud and appreciation
Others may go down with displeasure and condemnation

Painting From Memory

what could be more noble
than a son to paint a canvas
a portrait painted with years
of love heartfelt appreciation

a portrait of a beloved mother
lines of deep love appreciation
beauty bestowed upon mother
her face eternally young loving

you were extremely blessed
to have the love and discipline
of a wonderful caring mother
a mother among all mothers

radiant smile smiling as you smile
holding comforting ever loving
good fortune is having such a mother
a great blessing wonderful wise

a love like this is comfort blessing
during all the lived days of our life

Charmed Opportunity

Charmed Opportunity

May hand in hand, two tender and sincere,
Appreciation ‘WE’ translate as share,
United everywhere unravels care.
Defeat external harshness, winter drear.
Exasperation eased, horizons clear.
Charmed encounter blossoms as life’s stair
Opportunity affords, joy rare
Reopens expectations which appear
Real, rhyme feel, weal, we’ll seal, [s]poke fun at fear.
Idyll enchanting floats to future fair,
Enhancing bridge, soft breeze caressing hair,
Redemption signal, tenderness whose cheer
Adds grace to space, may trace tomorrow’s glow.
Serendipity, carefree, shall flow.

Given Freely Without Purchase Cost

there are those who write books
sell them to appreciative public
who receive them as blessings...

paid for is effort purchase appreciation
yet that given freely without purchase cost
is seldom appreciated as a rich blessing...

Habit Of Success

Inspiration, aspiration and perspiration
Takes one to the dream destination
The dream destination is nothing
But is a result of appreciation and admiration
An outcome of application and determination
Determination motivates to generation of strong willpower
The willpower is set by the desires
Inspiration, aspiration, perspiration, appreciation, admiration, determination and application
Fuel the desire to formulate the success equation
Once achieved the success becomes a habit
Only then we reach the never reachable DESTINATION
