Wrong in taking risks, acts too fragile like the fish
Highest level of this strong will ends in a wish
Improper experience, lacking growth, and childish
Mama is always needed for things to flourish
Papa must stay or else progress will diminish
Indented ability will always demolish
Strength so minute, for a weakling to be sluggish
Harboured fears, always making confidence feverish

reveries mine -
boat careless moored by less
than hope in an arboured cove
I hide in a saline shadow
pebble-dashed
by a wild tide
whispering..
rippled raw
by the repeated ebb and flow
of your once perfect possession
I tremble at the dark hour's moon
low lit by a ripening harvest moan..
now in a memory
slow-slowly waking
I remain your late Summer shore
history ceding its crystal myth
to the gasping yawn of fading mist..
you ran me through your fingers
trying to read my thoughts,
golded me, moulded me
early morning yellow ..
then touched me with meaning..
you enraptured me
in the gasp of Sunday birthing
loved me in sweet sonnets
a'flying my hair with strokes
of vivid imagination brought to life..
reveries mine
boat moored by more
than hope in an arboured cove
I hide in a saline shadow
pebble-dashed
by a wild tide
whispering..

Limerick : Once a President of Bolivia
Once a President of Bolivia
Frothed oblanceolate green saliva
Must dream was Ashoka*
On Andes throne Inca
That’s how COCA-cola drug India.
*ASHOKA, b. circa 304 BCE (reigned: 273-232 BCE): King of Magadha,
was the first great commoner Buddhist Emperor
of India which, then, extended from Afghanistan
to Bengal, and from Nepal to Southern Deccan.
Among his recorded edicts : concern for the peoples’
welfare ; medical attention for the needy ; arboured
thoroughfares ; nomination of officers to oversee
morality and magistrates ; forbade the slaughter of
animals for food or for religious purposes ; required
the reconciliation of all religious tendencies ; wanted
everyone to practice compassion and charity towards
one another and to follow the laws of the Dharma or
Righteousness ; and drew attention to the vanity of
glory and emphasised the supreme aim of Life itself.
