A BUTTERFLY THAT CARRIED JEWELS

Like a butterfly that flits on flower to flower
To collect the sweet nectar each-every hour
She loved to handle different items of jewelry
In the thoughtful mood with an eye of query
Wearing long boots and a cardigan in green
Showing dimpled face in an inquisitive scene
Hair tied with a shiny clip mounted in stones
Having smiley lips which sing musical tones
I doubt a moon has descended from the sky
The starry eyes which I could never pass bye
Surely it was that Moon to whom I fully know
Carrying a basket full of jewelry that it was so
Seemed just a butterfly that carried the jewels
That moved stealthily around
with fulcrum fuels

I’M LOOKING AT THE STARS

I’ m looking at the stars
Sitting alone in the darks
Thinking of all those times
That once, were all mine.
What happened this I lost my wish
To serve with love the white flowers dish
To fulfil all my dreams
To eat up the sweet cakes
Just waiting and waiting
closing my eyes
Seeming useless all hi’s and good byes
All my desires have been vanished
Feeling like I ‘m going to be banished
Now everything’s over
Time to get all over
Just waiting and waiting closing my eyes
Seeming useless all hi’s and good byes
The day and night going wars
Up high in the air blowing cars
Broken all those love wires
Burning on the streets those tyres
Now Just waiting and
waiting closing my eyes
Seeming useless all hi’s and good byes
I’ m looking at the stars
Sitting alone in the darks
Thinking of all those times
That once, were all mine.

How Do You think

If you think you are beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not, you don’t!
If you’d like to win, but you think you can’t,
It’s almost certain you won’t.
If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost;
For out in the world we findSuccess begins with a fellow’s will;
It’s all in the state of mind!
If you think you’re outclassed, you are;
You’ve got to think high to rise.
You’ve got to be sure of yourself
Before you’ll ever win the prize.
Life’s battles don’t always goTo the stronger or faster man;
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the person who thinks he can!

FEARLESS….

I have stopped fearing,
I have stopped trembling….
Constructive & definitive thoughts,
I’m assembling.
I have stopped fearing all antagonistic
& cynical ideas,
For they were giving me dyspnea
I have stopped fearing gloomy
remarks from everyone around,
As they degraded my morals
by leaps & bounds.
I have stopped fearing about
the repurcussions of my good deeds,
Even if people bury you, remember
you are a seed
I have stopped fearing from separations,
As sometimes separations can
lead to elevations
I have stopped fearing about being
misunderstood all time
Let me refresh with my seasoning
of oregano & thyme
