COVID'S CALL

A year ago all was well
now it feels just like hell
if we sneeze were asked to leave
wear a mask or don't come back
media spreads the fear so fast
we take hope it wont last
young or old, rich or poor
covid knocks at your door
Jesus says trust in Him
If we do things arent so glim
ten thousand years and we'll look back
we won't remember it so black
say your prayers and Golden rule
keep the kids home from school
Don't lose hope,trust in God
this too shall pass,either side the sod.

About this poem:
I wrote this in about 15 mins, the past years' experiences seemed to just draw it out of me. I hope others like it and are not offended by the spiritual aspect of it,I draw comfort,inspiration,strength, peace of mind and guidance from the Lord....... if just one person is made to feel a bit better by it then I'm happy.

COUNTING COINS

They like to think themselves as heroes.
They are the Self-Serving type.
They like making war on ev-ery-one, and count-ing coins at night.They contemplate new battles
for what they claim is right
But when they start daydreaming,
minds turn to counting coins all night.

Sometimes when I look at them and see into their eye,
tis war they think, make-ing life worthwhile.
Thier lips curve up, they just can't disguise,
they think of counting gold-coins, with-a-smile,
But tis so hard for them to know
which tis that they love more?
Counting coins by candle light?
Or being busy making war?

They use words like honour and glory
When they talk about their wars
They like to talk, about vic-tory and gain
But when they stop their talking, in the silence of thier own heads,
they go straight back,
to count-ing gold coins ag-ain.

Sometimes when I look at them and see into their eyes,
tis war they think, make-ing life worthwhile.
I see their lips curve, and they just can't disguise,
they think of gold-coins, with-a-smile,

But tis so hard for them to know
which tis that they love more?
Counting coins by candle light?
Or being busy making war?

It is The rich, the powerful
They like to think of as their friends
but they are just the bankers
in a war that never ends
They're not too fond of Peace
A ceasefire's what they hate
they love the thought of fighting wars
think-ing Oh, the mon-ey they shall make

Sometimes when I look at them and see into their eyes,
tis war they think, make-ing life worthwhile.
I see their lips curve, and they just can't disguise,
they think of gold-coins, with-a-smile,

But tis so hard for them to know
which tis that they love more?
Counting coins by candle light?
Or being busy making war?

Breakout

Breakout!
When explanations make no sense
When every answers wrong
You're fighting with lost confidence
All expectations gone
The time has come to get infected
Go to a barbeque, don't hestitate
Breakout!
Don't stop to ask
Go ahead and take off your mask
You've got to find a way
Get infected today
Breakout!!
Some people stop at nothing
To be sure that you have nothing
They close down the restaurants, close down the stores, wipe out the jobs
Breakout!

shades down low

Now the shades down low
evening in the street
puttin' down the rhythm
toying with the beat
taking my time
writing up the lines
feeling my way
with the old time rhymes
grinding to the flow
work it nice and slow
careful how I'm swimmin'
watch the undertow
riding like the dog
know its understood
haters on the corners
get you if they could
Now the shades down low
evening in the street
putting down the rhythm
toying with the beat
..

Life

life can be bitter
life can be sweet
life is what u make it
every single week.

undoubtedly life has changed with covid-19
i think u know what i mean
once we were free to do as we please
now we are confined bcuzz of this disease.

i do believe we will overcome this obstacle
and rise again to a pinnacle
it is a constant battle
but it is one we have to tackle head on.

my love

How deep is your love,i will lead you through the beautiful paths of love
You will feel like a baby again,i will look into your eyes,
just like the way we look at a paradise in a big picture.
When i take you through my heart,you will see beautiful houses built in my
heart for you.
I will give you the comfort you have never seen before,you will rest on my chest
at night and hold my hands at fright.so much i wanna do for you,i wish i knew too
I will always blow your mind in different kind of ways,this is a special task for me
from our creator,my heart beat.

first song

{Every single day I wake feeling low and down
Somethings telling me, the way it needs to be
With no faith in love and lust, she came into my life
She liked me as I am and accepted all my flaws
I gave it all to you made you special number one
Now I’m stuck between two worlds, one where you still here
Back in my own time this feeling cant unwind too near}

{Have you ever in your heart, seen a light so bright its clear
Feeling colors seeing it load, this connection brings to tear
I knew you were the one, you told me not to fear
I believed you when you said, always I will love you feel it here}

{Knowing is the key, I can see how they treat me
I’m never the one able, to be what she needs of me
This enables them giving to rite easy into leaving flight
You promised when to me, he was a distant memory}

{On that happy day you ask me could you go
After making love all day I wanted you to say
On that happy day I should have held you tight in sight
On that happy day I gave you your own way
On that happy day it echoes make you stay}

RESTLESS & LOST

The feeling ..hard to explain
I recognise myself only in name
the sense of self merely a shell
the only feeling - living in hell

The light - end of tunnel is barely in sight
as sleeplessness reigns yet another night
So much to live for but lacking foresight
straying towards wrong - rarely the right

Desire to push the self destruct button
knowing full well result equals nothing
hoping like hell this night won't be long
hoping to find the will to be strong

Relentless struggle tomorrow will bring
and maybe the bell of hope will ring
may it chime really loud penetrating my mind
and reach the place it's destined to find

Everlasting Love

Everlasting love, endless love
That's what I am searching for- for your endless love.
A love that will hold me close, tenderly, warmly, sincerely. Oh sweet and precious love come to me, enter me, envelope me. Let me feel your strong sense of being. Your God given desire and need. TOGETHER we fulfill and complete each other.

Love is an illusion

My heart is as pure as that of a child

My passion is hot and my temper is mild

I do have love in abundance

To share it with you, I have no resistance

Then why can't I find someone to love me?

A special lady to set my emotions free

To open my eyes and let me see

How wonderful life could be

Am I destined to spend my life alone?

Waiting day and night beside my phone

Hoping a nice lady may give me a call

Asking me, in love with her, to fall

Inviting me to a dancing hall

Falling in love for me is nothing but an illusion

That is my only and final conclusion
