Best Cures Poems


Day To Day Cures
When your world is topsy-turvy
Opt out  -- if you must
But don't stop CHARITY
GIVE a few coins, slices of food,
To the beggars, real or fake 
And the universe heals THE HEART
By degrees. College degrees fail
All too often as does "religion,"
Just be human, a mensch, once
A...

Premium Member Ailments, Purim Cures 'Em
Ailments? Purim Cures 'Em!
Down 'N the Dumps?
Simcha smoothes most lumps,
What's Simcha? Briefly, Shared Joy,
As more 'tis shared, less there is to annoy!
Trade a warm feeling, return a smile,
Rids everyone of at least some bile.
Together, we overcome trouble, 
Synergy! Life expanded, unconfined by the bubble!
Purim practices...

How Love of Jesus Cures Racism
I
Fix your eyes upon Jesus - for joy
His Love can cure everything doctors can't
evils done to you, loves taken from you-
No medication, pill, sexual addiction/experimentation
will ever cure: Jesus treats the disease, not symptoms
that White Supremacy, mad Muslim Supremacy, evil Eastern Supremacy
we see quickly, as we...

Clowning Cures
“Today we will practice
medicine and cure the flu.”
The clown announced it twice,
just as a fun thing to do.

He went into the laughing crowd,
and found an unhealthy fellow.
Took him by his hand and avowed,
“By humor, health will grow!”

The clown was right, although,
the ill man was embarrassed.
But...

Coscience Cures
Conscience Cures.


I’m a horse on a bridle
Who doesn’t taste the metal
And chew it as meal enough.

Where I work in the Bank
Customer cash that I handle
Enough for money does not feel.

Where I work as a Doctor
Handling ailing naked bodies
Don’t appear bodies enough.

I’m a Teacher of Nature...

Over a hundred years ago in the bush of west Queensland 
the cure all for everything was,
 a mixture of axle grease blue stone and arsenic.
It was known to heal up skin cancer,
 sore backs on horses kill swamp cancer on a horses belly ...

Art Cures
*Art Cures*


Art helps to express feeling and thoughts
Where no vocabulary can't, a crayon sought
With canvas and palette, I paint pains off
There reveals causes, was I too wrapped off

No sulks for sadness, the things that I lost
Thinking it over, a person I once was
Thank art for...

Cures
There are so many cures today
There's help for whatever comes your way
 
There's an almost cure for headaches that linger
Most of the time they can reattach a severed finger
 
There's transplants for thinning hair
And so called cures for fat are everywhere
 
Bad eyesight?  Get...

Ayanda is a Zulu name (A to Z already), my daughter
Brindha is her aunt in KwaZulu-Natal, my "sister" - remember -
Calling cousins siblings is common among us (Tina's daughter, 
by marriage to my uncle Krish, who is my dad's youngest brother)

Time Cures and Soul Endures
Life is lived though won or lost
We are forced to create a past
Time is also running damn fast
All must one day end at last

The loss we suffered long back
Is no longer a great drawback
We laugh when past loss we track
We are cured due to time's...

Romantic Cures
Our love, has ended.
It's not because of, Death I've befriended.
Now we're done, I feel my heart break.
Your not my only one, but the love you take.
I have no say, yet your the one I hate.
I just hope today, you asphyxiate.
No more words of yours, to...

The Leaf Has Fallen
THE LEAF HAS FALLEN

From its highest beauty place,
The sunrise and the sunset, nothing was missing,
Light rains, warm airs, indeed there was no gales,
How did you fall?

From being cured,
The love and the joy, fighting not,
Time, space, certainly there was no ignorance,
Why did you fall?

The season came,...
