Oh Foolish Man

Oh foolish man,
how dare you interpret your
Manly roar
To a lionesses protection
Oh, foolish man
If only you could see into a
 female's heart, 
How fierce, how noble, how pure,
It's very being, vibrating with love
With hope, and sometimes, yes, with blindness,
Oh, how we suffer,
only to produce another, possible
foolish man into the world
oh, think twice,
Just another day in living
In your own fool's paradise

My Husband

Yawn sigh, scratch your crotch
Yawn sigh, catch your breath.
Yawn sigh, me looking on,
Yawn,  sigh, 
how soon youth is gone.

Ghostly Fun

There once was a ghost from the past
Who thought being dead was a blast
He screeched down a hall
Causing one girl to fall,
And now her right leg's in a cast!

Cheating

I love my life,
I really do,
I love my husband,
And(just found out), so do you!

So what do we do,
What do we do,
I'll split him in half,
That's what I'll do ! 
Ha!

You

Your breath smells rotten,
And you’re overweight  too
Did I mention selfish?
How could I not do?
You don’t even really like my dogs.

My children are a Godsend,
But not to you…
Oh yes, my daughter
Gives you plenty of laughs,
But that’s just her just playing you.
Really, you’re poles apart

Do you really think she’d visit,
When you move out?
My son is going to miss you
Because of DSTV,
He couldn’t stand the fighting
And your attitude.
He is more real, and likes it fair,
Truth or dare?
We really miss you, 
And 
We all really love you,
And wish you were here.

Greed

Why hunt, why greed
Oh superior, human being?
My heart ‘s so sore.
Those eyes, …that pain,
Dying a slow death for human gain.
Such love, such hope, to animals in need
Silverbacks, bears, elephants and more.
What are we doing?
Does anyone really score?

Killing the circle of life,
Is killing the need of our breed.
Let’s stop the madness,
Let’s take control
Let’s wipe out the need
For corruptible, man-enforced ,  greed.
Our souls are joined,
That’s no mistake,
We need to do a double-take.

My Silent Scream

Why can’t you hear me, is what I desperately scream.
“What would you like me to do” is the silent loving response.
I don’t know, but you’ve got to help me.
“Give me something to help you with”
I’m living in fear and feel so far from Love, and
I dare not to dream anymore, I reply.
“Child of mine, take a moment to reflect about what it is that you truly want”
So how do I get out of conditional thinking, is my response?
“Lighten up, there is always a way” 
Love is always the Answer-bless instead of stress, love anyway as hard as it is.
 Trust. My issues with Trust have run deep, it’s still a major contender after having being blind-sided by people I trusted naturally, but it's never too late to trust - try it, I am

Internal Acceptance

Loving kindness towards yourself
Allows loving kindness to everyone else
Treating yourself with love and respect
gives you a lot more than you'd expect.

Soul

Oh blessed we are, indeed, we are.
Try capture that moment, every waking hour,,
Oh, human body. Oh,  human thought.
If only you knew the trouble you wrought

Life

We dress up in our team colours,
Stand on the sidelines and shout
Foul play, we all say, he definitely should be out
What happened to that  pass, what happened to that goal
Fire the ref we all shout loudly, dig him a huge big hole!!


And then we let it go

In real life, we kick ourselves, 
For hours and maybe days on end
We sit and shoot ourselves, over and over again,

Things we should’ve known
Things we should’ve  seen, 
We moan and silently scream 

Where are our sports fanatics,
Where is  that  one voice team,
Why do we hide ourselves,
When things fall apart at the seams
Why aren’t we there all shouting
In very vocal terms
That everything around us,
Seems to be a crock of germs! 
We all need a voice of reason, we all need a helping hand
Where are you voices of likeness, 

or is it just a dream?
