Manifesting thee-
thou new December,
let joy and peace be
the last month's ember.
Glowing from the fire
of chances and luck,
taken as a trier,
by hearty risk, buck!
I lay dead alive,
in high anxiety,
on how to survive,
not by my piety.
One thing, I know of-
is my faith's prowess,
holding up above
emotional cuss.
That would sink grievance,
of chance not taken,
driving luck's deviance
to reawaken...
Good luck and fortune,
repairing this year
wornout misfortune,
not to reappear,
But bring on blessings...
meant for this year's grace,
out of gloom's dressings,
running out of chase.
Amen!
It’s always a nice thing to do
to be the giver of good things
wishing always what is best
so that kindness will spring
Now when you receive kindness
you feel so much the better
it lifts your spirits no end
whether it’s audible or letter
What a picture this brings
to be honoured with this
just simple words ‘best wishes’
makes one feel had a kiss
We all need to be a giver
bringing always such good wishes
seek to be full of joy and gladness
for this indeed is most clever
I don’t dislike my enemy, that word won’t justice serve,
I loathe, despise, I can’t abide…these terms he does deserve.
I’ll try to be the better man, to say “live and let live”,
To let bygones be bygones to, if not forget, forgive.
To that end I’ll wish on him, on that hellspawn of a man,
Sincerest hopes that he may spend a long life in the can.
May he be blessed with progeny whose feelings rival mine,
May he enjoy th’experience of punishment divine.
May he succeed with partners who have many STDs,
May he have brand-name garments ridden through with ticks and fleas.
I pray his every asset be seized by the IRS…
That he finds courage and the balls to all his crimes confess.
I wish him every happiness reserved for such damned souls,
I hope th’inferno keeps him warm and toasty on its coals.
I guess perhaps I’m not yet primed t'forgive my enemy,
It may be when his body’s cold that hate will die…we’ll see.
May you have a lovely day
May love kiss you on your way
May you always have a smile
Never walk a lonely mile
I hope you have the chance to say
What matters to you this very day
And when you walk along the street
A dear friend you chance to meet
I hope you can laugh at something funny
To make your day bright and sunny
Smell all the colours of the flowers
Rest and relax in peaceful hours
Remember I'm always thinking of you
Sending love the whole day through
So have a day full of sunny kisses
From me to you with the best of wishes
Indeed, a new Mayor you need…
As too many citizens, did die or bleed.
I watch my hometown, going down,
It makes me both cry and frown.
I reemember when Chicago was a delight and sweet.
No dead bodies lined the streets!
The “L” was great train transportation!
I rode it,without parents,and no consternation!
Downtown was then, a safe place to be
We shopped there as girls,no adult company.
So, here’s to Chicago and it’s great architecture.
Hope you end Mayor Lightfoot’s failed tenure!!

Dedicated to Chicago…Best to all citizens!
Congratulation,
It's time for celebration,
enjoy your life's most precious occasion;
your marriage function
finally, the moment come of our cessation
now, with me you got seperation
very much Congratulation,
move ahead in your life towards a new direction
handle your momentum with a best configuration
i know, very smoothly you manage all your situation
without conversation, you will always be my favourite person,
with eachother we can't express our emotion
now, don't ever think about our affiliation
you are a man of marvellous conviction
never bring your life in desperation
bloosom her life, who will keep into you her own aspiration
welcome your new life with your arms extension
my love towards thou is non-fiction
want to stop here my narration.
My husband likes to start his day
in quite an injudicious way
He wolfs down cold coffee yogurt
topped off with frozen egg yolks
And though he's never ever smoked
~ I think he'll die soon of a stroke
The bettor I set forth, the less you appear to care.
Hence, the best I attempt, the farther I prosper.
It looks that you cannot complete this assignment.
For every solo blink, sheerer gets incitement.
The time has shown up for you to be conscious.
To branch out into the world for karma purposes.
The shortcoming lies with me for wrecking you.
At that point, I whimsy it was the right track to do.
The bettor I serve, the best I can observe.
On account of you, I retained the option to improve.
Flying is the best trail for ascertaining your way.
There are a variety of events present today.
The issue is resolved, and the site is likely.
Launch your destiny without uncertainty.
It's useless whether you admire me.
Either you involve me or won't be your plea.
I'm hesitant; however, one object is clear.
I'll wait by there till the silver star appears.
You needn't bother with my increased support.
It's fit beyond due that I discharge you in short.

Vivid colors light up the night sky
Embers of promise whispering why
Must I find a dream?
Sweet insight harkens my flight
As I work to make the world bright
Will I wear a smile?
Soft memories encourage my heart
Reminding me just where I may start
Can I inspire a wish?

A necklace of flowers
to soften sadness
that torments you ...
A bouquet of silences
to defuse tears
that assaults you ...
An outburst of joy
to evict yours
bitterness ....
A fresh love for
shut everyone up
the traces of cold memories ...!
Wishing you blessed days at Christmas time and good health throughout the coming New Year 2020.
Hugs,
Charma.
I understand you. And still am grateful
For your arrival for a while.
And feeling pity.. - you weren’t able
To be as happy as was I.
As well I’m grateful for you leaving,
Appreciating your “ok”.
I wish you wonderful Thanksgiving
And freedom be yourself one day.
Sincerely,
Adeus!
Genteel and articulate,
An inspiration you have been.
Loyalty and Passion
In you, we have seen.
Rising through ranks,
Sweat blood all this while.
Making your way,
Through every test and trial.
It's about time,
To graciously pass the baton.
Leaving a legacy,
That we'll now build upon.
Your cabin walls,
Will confine you no more.
You're set free,
To venture and to explore.
Nostalgia lingers,
As we bid adieu.
Happy 2nd innings Sir,
A new life awaits you!
BEST WISHES
The water, rain, from the sky,
much needed when the ground is dry.
Weather fickle now, nature forgets,
floods to often, watch your steps!
Spring. just over a month away
inviting gardeners to ready spade.
Keen-edged they'll work, dig better.
A fork, a hoe, a line, the seed-setter
Spring done, summers breaking,
think of picnics, holiday taking.
Autumn, summer still hiding,
but soon, gold leaves gliding.
Again winter, it cannot hold back
It and its friends, one named Jack,
its brother Snow, winter confetti,
both best viewed from a settee.
Seasons' will start all over again.
Your husband no longer in pain.
Yes, I wish all good for you Sara
Hope, husband soon gets betta
I wish I loved the sufferer,
I wish I loved the pioneer,
I wish I loved the real lover,
I wish I loved the human mind qonquerer.
I wish I loved the human race,
I wish I loved their silly face,
I wish I loved their grace,
I wish I loved to avoid the abhorrence.
I wish I loved the way woman talks,
I wish I loved the way woman walks,
I wish I loved the way woman catwalks,
I wish I loved the way woman sleepwalks,
I wish I loved to avoid fighting,
I wish I loved to avoid cheating,
I wish I loved to avoid useless talking,
I wish I loved to avoid back slashing.
