Best Egal Poems
Egal your hurly-burly city,
Egal your stress bureaucracy;
Saturday I shall visit my garden,
Where I will bury all your plights
Like a slough snake long forgotten.
There await me rosy welcome
From my carnation and dafodil,
The sweet aroma of my lavender;
I shall kiss the beautiful stair of petals
Build by my darling ginger and tulip.
The quietude of my garden:
Dousing rain after a scorching heat,
Shall redeem me from your torture,
The amusement from the squirrels
Shall restore smile onto my face;
Under the robust cherry tree
I shall journey to the mount of thought.
And when the heavenly beam decends
To honour our weekly appointment
Like sky I will spread out my picnic mat,
Delight it with Andrea, Nette, Donna’s poems;
I will turn left and right, allowing it
To caress the gradient of my hips.
When my guest turns westward
Then I will bless all my darlings;
I will baptise them with heavenly dew
Anoint their feet with brown-black powder
And cast out any demon perching on them.
Hoping you that wolf will roar? Egal !
I shall not think of your sausage,
Your meatpie will not come to mind;
Above my head are young breast apples,
Mangoes and banana are at alert
Ready to arrest any roaring wolf.
Egal your hurly-burly city,
Egal your stress bureaucracy;
Saturday I shall visit my garden.
NEUER THE ACHILLES
Horse power?
Let the horses keep their power
Neuer power is now the toast of all
The day all cats chose their king
It was Tiger that first wore the crown
But Lion roared, bore his fangs
And bristled up his mane like Tsunami
In a jiffy he dethroned the Tiger
Then came the king of catch-
Whose ribs are breastplates
Whose hands are magnetic tongs-
Neuer the Achilles:it was him
That shamed the lion and won the crown.
Neuer the omniform
Massive rock at duty post ;
Egal where comes the bullet:
Left, right, corner or centre;
It comes from corner,
He coils on it like a python;
It comes from centre,
He broods ball like mother-hen;
When the gunners come closer
He unfolds himself like an Ostrich taking a flight
And exclusively ward them off
Like a mother-dog chasing intruders
Away from its puppies.
Daredevil the goalkeeper
Keel that keeps the ship afloat:
It dares the oceans and shuts them out
Says cargo hold is for smile and not for tear;
In the air he is a parachute
On the ground he is yak or cyclone
Open or close the net snores
The posts say, ‘it is holiday today’
The ball says, ‘ I am on safe hands today’
Only the gunners keep gnashing their teeth
The pains of stillbirths wet their eyes
Who shall take me to Deutschland ?
Who shall take me to Bayern- Muchen?
Let him that will take me to Neuer come now
I can’t wait to meet the Archilles.

No ,I did not want holiday ,
I did not want to go to site
Where blocks or bricks I had to lay
Or pillar and beam I would cast
I did not want dad's dirty Job,
Where cement would mar school boy up;
Egal where you were in the globe ,
Sand to mix or water to mop .
The stench of rebuilding cesspool
Like the foul smell from rotten egg;
No I would not be such a fool,
To put leg where he put his leg .
Now I am older than he was;
He was lion,I am a mouse.

Places of significance to me
Always lift my spirits for a while.
Regal settings depicted in books
Amaze me, but none can make me smile,
Delight me, like Heaven, as described
In God's Word--city of pure gold. There
Saints bask in the Savior's love. For all
Eternity, each is called His heir.

Do you wake up well jungle juggernaut?
If the forest wakes up well, it's to me egal ;
if the forest doesn't wake up well, it's to me egal;
if the tusker has woken up well, what else?
You that breathe with dexterity,
You that walk with dexterity.
Your foot print; fortress for the rodents.
Do you wake up well Elephant?
Mind not their foolhardiness,
they that see you in distance and propose:
come let hunt him with our stick.
Is the tamer of forest not bigger than that we say
let's hunt him with our cudgels?
Bull may be tethered, buffallo may be;
the king is yet uncrowned
that can tether the jungle juggernaut.

Der Glanz in deinen Augäpfel,
Und der Reiz aus deiner Schönheit,
Rufen mich um dir zu kommen;
Wie der Pfiff von einem Hundbesitzer.
Mit dem Verhalten deinen Augenlider blinken,
Naturlich kann ich nicht nein sagen,
Sondern dir folgen ohne Zweifel;
Wie ein Hund seinem Besitzer folgt.
Sagst du mir, was ich tun muss,
Nur gibt es eine Moglichkeit :
Deinen Wunsch,sonst nichts;
Um lieben und um Liebe zu lassen.
Wenn alle nein sagen, ist mir egal,
Wenn du ja sagst,alles klar.
Die Zeit verletzt und heilt
Der Zeit ist der Mensch egal
Man verliebt und sich entliebt
im Laufe der Zeit tausendmal
Man verliert und spart sie
Man bereut’s wenn sie vergeht
Man fühlt sie auf dem Gesicht
wenn der Wind kalt weht
Die Zeit ist das Aufgehen der Sonne
der blutrote Himmel bei Dämmerung
Die Zeit ist eine verblühte Blume
die beim Fenster steht zur Erinnerung
Die Zeit ist die Tränen aus Wachs
als die Kerze zum Ende brennt
Die Zeit kann man nicht fassen
ist doch alles, was man kennt
Wedding dreams make lifelong memories
Openhearted promises and fantasies
Romantic whispers and warm caresses
Lighthearted banter in gala dresses
Decadent ambience and chandeliers
Crown jewels with beguiling sheers
Regal ceremony with witnesses
Unfamiliar princes and baronesses
Immortalizing this blessed day of June
Shivering with joy under the sublime moon
Everyone needs a world cruise for their honeymoon

Good friends are often rare
Lasting friendship should be our aim
In good and bad times
No matter what others would say
Trust is all what counts and lasts
----------------------------------------
Gute Freunde sind selten
Lange Freundschaft sei unser Ziel
Im Guten und im Schlechten
Egal, was andere sagen würden
Nur Vertrauen zählt auf Dauer

ETHEREAL
‘Ethereal’ must have been invented
To describe my lady’s beauty
Hair, finespun with hint of curl;
Eyes, deepest hazel, smouldering.
Regal bearing, head held high,
Elegance epitomized.
And today I’m feeling fancy-free.
Last night I’m sure she smiled at me.
