Steven The Seagull
I saw him posing on his perch
While exploring Blackpool merch.
"The Snack Thief" is how he's locally known
Wide eyed, plump and holding his own.
He loves chips, ice cream cones and bread...
So keep an eye out over head!
He'll hover, then suddenly down he'll swoop
To gather up a hearty scoop.
Or he'll seem to dawdle by your side
But snatch your snack when you watch the tide.
He's very intelligent and with it sneaky.
But he is endearing, cute and cheeky.
Its advisable for tourists to feast inside
Where naughty seagulls don't reside.
Steven Seagull now lives with me
So he can't cause chaos near the sea!

Divorce
~~"Divorce may fix some of your problems, but it will create a whole lot of new problems too, especially if you have kids or property you cherish" ~~The poet
.Dissention causes trouble. Try seeing your partners point of view.
Indiscretion can be the cause. Is forgiveness possible?
Violence is hard to remedy and harder to forgive.
Obstinance is fixable if both stop being stubborn.
Remember the grass isn't always greener on the other side.
Conversation calmly may help.
Empathy for your partner is advisable.

Bunny Boggins
Bunny Boggins was a brilliant batter for sure.
He hit home runs that were the team’s big cure.
Until he came along, they had such a losing streak.
He is up at bat right now; don’t make a squeak!
You mean he cannot bat if you make noise? Someone said.
He can, but it is not advisable, answered his cousin Ted.
We have to keep that gorgeous bunny in the sunbonnet quiet.
Bunny Boggins is a lady’s man. If we lose, it might start a riot.

Clandestine Closet
Never advisable to be naked!
Unfolding ability to assume changes
Depict funeral mesh opaque
Wobbled iron lock conjure
Wakens particular persona to inhabit
Wardrobe wonder honours
Peter Pan collar innocence
Embellished bow breasts for bombshell
Rhinestone on satin stimulant
Deceptively deep, spacious
Dark wood doors swing away to exhibit
Dresses with waves vivacious
Forest of newfound favourites
Frocks rustle, slide, beg to be fondled
Fascinator lavender fragrance
Mysterious occult conspirators
Ultimately select pretty arrangements
Musty garment rots ambiguous

An Alliance With Patience
Develop patience which cures
Its power is indeed massive
Patience will rescue surely
Practice it to know its power
When you are in a great hurry
Better to use brain very calmly
Get not anger or tension dear
Just observe the happenings
Never mind making a sacrifice
Spend some time extra also
Study the situation keenly
Open not mouth, use brain
Sharp words never help at all
Swearing is an utter waste
Arrogance is not advisable
Quitting is really of no use
Best way is to nicely adjust
Learn the job with involvement
Master the technique finely
Benefits will flow incessantly
Patient approach is desirable
It will bring you only success
Once you acquire patience
Your life will get red-carpet

More Holding, Hearty Holawale Safiu
Fear not the beast of age,
Now you are mature an adult.
Thou shall hail from thy night cage;
Talking about concerns phobia consult,
For in it, overflows river of blissful wage.
Fear not the twist of tongue,
Or the loyalty of those spying,
To insult the efforts you dreadfully dung,
With no intention than pretty sighing...
Weighing heavily pregnancy so young.
Fear not the twist of chance,
Buried in mysterious harmless prank-
Of once opportunity lost; it lives in trance.
Do you limit yourself to that, be frank?
Resolve bugging other logics to glance!
No revival cream cheese,
Like groundnut oil will ever do.
Neither do faults' wave flees,
To never appear again in the blue.
Fighting back, surely ills been sleaze.
May all sickness mails hang.
Network ye be unavailable!
May your darling gang,
Offers you scope advisable
And get drums loudly bang...
Thou nature's fragrance so sweet,
Submit happiness to his feet
And forever to his grace,
Bring enough fortune embrace...
That gets enemies plans defeat.
Happy birthday!
Age off hell!
Have your say;
State all well,
Out shining MAY.
Amen!

Potestades Virgo Case
only things grown in the ground remain
but mismatched without the hand of man
see that they dodge beautiful
their languishing longitudinal vegetable bodies
never suffer fracture the stems with fruits
and their armor and weapons, bark and branches
trees
no, I didn't think our past was decent
humans
if you ask me about those days of debauchery
we were building ourselves up like the men we now are
with wars and ironworks asps vertices vortices cusps
and it was discovered that it is easy to be reborn another
improvement is advisable
there is only one exit after a wall called brain
then the field we learned to cultivate
now this is what we are having mastered cultivation
homunculi like scattered tares sprouting without end
the power of some being the downfall of others
history built with annihilations
and then the progress
the home appliances
microwave TV freezer wire and electricity
then bytes and bits
now nanoeverything
tomorrow AI and nothing more.

Falling In Love
Falling in love
Is not a simple affair
Romance carries the spark
That shines in your heart
Love carries the light
That brightens up your grief
Jealousy carries the fire
That burns your rationality
Lovely the spark
Eagerly you pursue
Cheerful the light
Fully you absorb
Painful the fire
Deeply you suffer
And this is something serious called
falling in love
Falling in love can be something unquestionable
But in the name of god
Still has to be kind and rational
As everyone has the right of falling in love
But with the blessing of god
Still has to be decided by serendipity
A match of maybe one in a million
And so everyone must value love
And so no hegemony is advisable in love
And so everyone is free to fall in love

Walk the Route To the Truth
Walk The Route to the Truth
Should you be seeking the route to the Truth
It’s advisable to follow this route
Start walking on the road to Graciousness
That guides one on the way to Godliness.
If you find a sign saying "Temptation”
Change direction with no hesitation
Persevere onwards past the Devil's Creek
Head off on the path reserved for the meek.
Travel on keeping in sight of the Light
On the byway that gives rise to the Right
When weary stop by the Saviour's Inn
There you shall find the rest you seek within.
Continue with strong determination
Onwards to the divine destination
There you will find the celestial Gold Key
That opens the heart for Eternity.
“Follow the footsteps of our faithful friend
Let the light of Christ shine bright to life's end.”

Women and Funny Bone
If you wonder why to men many
Womenfolk seldom seem born funny,
The reason’s straight forward
Based on what I’ve observed:
They need no humour to please any,
To them spade’s not just spade—
And menfolk included,
Let men give this truth not a penny.
___________________________________
Pandemic raging, many women work from home. And with domestic help either not available or not advisable, they have to look after the house, children and the kitchen.
Obviously they are hard pressed for the luxury of a lighter mood, and may give an impression that they lack a funny bone

What I Have Learned About Technology
Technology that is useful,
Is built by hands that are purposeful.
Technology that is helpful,
Is designed by the insightful.
Technology can still be mastered,
If enough of us don't get plastered.
Technology is a tool, that has more blades than a swiss army knife,
With the potential to enhance our life,
If we can still see what is real,
And give the planet time to heal.
Technology can be branded low tech or high tech,
So, we can decide what is needed on deck,
Not what we can get if we decide to take what is written on that cheque.
Technology that is reliable,
Is not always available.
Technology that is unfixable,
Is readily available,
And sits on every table.
Technology that is harmful,
Is plentiful,
Technology that is sold to the gullible,
Is profitable.
Technology becomes compulsory in most lands,
When it is placed in government hands.
Technology has an impact that is undeniable,
For which you and I are liable.
So, while you are still able,
While you still have a brain that is rational,
Due diligence is advisable,
While the choice is still available,
For humans to do work that makes them essential.
