Lamp of Genie

I'm a girl Of Hundred Wishes,
Will you grant me all these wishes?
May all my dreams come true,
Aladdin.I'm glad,I have 
a share Of Your Lamp too.

I'm a girl Of Hundred Wishes,
Sweep my floor and Wash my dishes!,
Bake my cakes, in the oven too.
Go to Work,Back Home ironing,
Doing Laundry,Cooking Stew,
Is that much to ask Of You?
 Dear Genie,Much more chores to do.

I'm a girl Of Hundred Wishes,
Roby Williams singing for me,
Enrique Inglesias, is Here too,
Richard Gere and George Clooney,
Minnie's land and Looney tooney,
all around me in a circle,Lamp Of Genie,
Full Of Dreams come true.


I'm a girl of Hundred wishes,
Chocolate Ripple ,so delicious,
Whilst I fall in love,'Amour',
Flowers scenting sweet Odour.
There am i,floating so high,
with the faries in the sky,
I am smiling,No more cry.

I'm a girl of Hundred Wishes,
Clouds are sleeping,Moon is peeping,
Saying 'I Love You',Angels singing
Playing Harps and Violins too.
Stars are  dancing,Stars are twinkling,
amongst them,there is You.

Rays Of Light Shining so bright,
Its the Greatest Night,Of Nights,
Wishes Granted,Im enchanted,
Dear Genie,thanks to you.
My Sweet Genie,Handsome Genie,
I will love You ,till I'm Ninety two,
I am leaving On a  Rainbow,
I shall remember You.


                                                                    Charma

The Tower of Babel

Today I woke up and smiled with Africa
     I rapped with Nazizi 
     I admired with Ali Kiba 
     I adored with Fuse Odg 
     I danced with Fally Ipupa 
I remembered with Lucky Dube and Brenda Fassie

Today for lunch, I learnt some French
     I dreamed with Maitre Gims 
     I danced some more with Soprano 
     I was amazed by Stromae 
     I was moved by Kendji Girac 

And down I flowed on the Orinoco with Celtic Woman
I felt colorful with Sean Paul, Daddy Yankee, Gyptian and Enrique Iglesias 
I read some quotes from Bob Marley
Latino beats, reggae beats, ragga dance hall!
And there went Pitbull featuring so, so, and so..

And higher I went, changing my dish
     Sia now we are talking
     Hey Hey Beyonce 
     Damn Eminem 

Oh my Psy. ..
Girl's generation, 2NE1 ......okay
Falling back into highschool
But awake enough not to forget to click the button
Wow that music India 
I don't get it, but I love it

And I really truly wanted to stay awake
And travel the world some more, to the tunes unknown
But I had to sleep
For tomorrow is another adventure

When God confused the languages,
He knew through them we were more beautiful
He knew through them we reached higher

Autobiography of An Atmosphere

I am a party animal, my heritage is mixed
quite content to lounge about when conditions remain fixed. 

Suppose that’s the nobility which Krypton must provide,
maintaining stiff upper lip when I’m all buzzed inside.

Then too, I’m mostly nitrogen, which is very stable, 
tamping volatility of oxygen: it’s able

to combine with hydrogen (that’s also in my make up).
Uncontrolled? Oh that would lead to an explosive break up.

Carbon Dioxide? Its percentage varies night and day:
vegetative respiration, or so the boffins say.

I wonder why I don’t glow multicoloured in a storm:
my neon, argon, radon being Vegas lighting norm.

If I had more Helium the humans would sound squeaky.
I imagine the attraction of that chap Enrique

Would suffer greatly from affliction. He’d become mundane,
and prove downright offensive if I gave him more methane.

I’ve also Nitrogen Oxide, not Nitrous NO2, 
and a soupçon of ozone which had once protected you

from harmful rays from Out There much more than now is measured.
It seems that humans cannot see what really should be treasured.

I’m moved by friction of the Earth and pressure off the bat
while Coriolis effect pushes me this way and that:

north and south of the equator, the opposite I spin.
Any other speculations, my friends, are simply wind.


Spirit Broken Again

Spirit broken again

 
                                      Her spirit was broken again 
                                     as the police broke the news!
                            Her beloved Enrique had just been killed
                                             shot three times, 
                             caught in the crossfire of gang violence
                                          in Toronto's west side.
                           Helena,35, now was left hopeless, and in despair
                                  how could she care for her 3 children?

You see, Helena was a refugee from war torn Syria. Sadly, she had lost both of her parents about 2years ago, they died when an artillery shell blasted their little apartment in Aleppo. At least they died together in their sleep. 

Helena was crushed, obviously, 
by the sudden news, 
and her spirit was broken.

Her husband, Enrique who was in a settlement camp in Germany, called with the news that he qualified for refugee status and the whole family could start a new life in Canada. 

                                       Elated, Helena picked up, 
                        all the little pieces of her broken heart and spirit, 
                  and what was left of her family, and headed for Canada.

Helena and Enrique were so excited to have finished their English course, and Enrique had been working for two months, at a food distribution center in
Brampton. Their new life together as a family had just got started and then this tragedy! Helena was watching the news of a tragic shooting never imagining that it was her husband, who was killed...and then the knock at the door! 
                                                 God help her!

Here comes the rain as sun shines bright,
Streak rainbow plain in radiant light.


Feel thought now hurl a profound think,
Yet sense somehow a causal link.


Indulge your heart as mind plays games,
Begin and start what ego names.


Sure heart knows soul beyond mere thought,
A certain whole conscripts all plots.


Joy wears a face that succeeds cheer,
Wit follows grace when love comes near.


Seek then delight beyond mere fill,
Focus your sight on pure goodwill.


Peace centres here when love firms proof,
Abide my dear in that sure truth.


Go deeper still and forfeit thought,
Surrender will to find your lot.


Strange is the change that drives each soul,
Poise floods clear range in that sure whole.


All else must fade in time and space,
Let splendour trade that awesome grace.


Purpose plays pun in feisty jest,
Enjoy life's run in journey quest.


Death is the gate where love awaits,
Embrace your fate and don't be late!

Down By the Boardwalk - My Version

ENSEMBLE
Oh when the days seem long, and when the sun shines bright
We step out the door, and stand in the light
We walk down the street and go around the corner
The sun is shining brighter, and the day is getting warmer.

Down by the boardwalk
We’ll be having some fun
Down by the boardwalk
You should come join along
Down by the boardwalk
We’ll be dancing all day
Down by the boardwalk
C’mon you know the way
To the boardwalk. 

MAYOR FREDERICKSON
Ahh, what a beautiful day. A day to be out and about. What do you say, Officer Johnson.

JOHNSON
Oh, I couldn’t agree more, mister Mayor. 

MAYOR FREDERICKSON
Gosh, we are so blessed to have a day like this, not too hot, not to cold, but good enough for 
a day at the beach.

JOHNSON
If only I were off duty.

MAYOR FREDERICKSON
(Spoken) I’ll tell you what Officer Johnson
(Sung) When the wind hits your cheek and the sun hits your skin
Its oh so clear, to know that the water is where we should be.
When the clouds divide, and the sun starts to shine
We race down to the boardwalk, and dive in.



ENSEMBLE
Down by the boardwalk
Laying in the sun
Down by the boardwalk
Down the street we will run
Down by the boardwalk
We’ll be having a blast
Down by the boardwalk
Join in while it lasts
Fun on the boardwalk.

ENRIQUE
Enrique’s flower shop is now open for business!

ENSEMBLE
Today, we celebrate the sun and heat
Today, is not like any other, it cant be beat
Today, we pray will never come to an end
We’ll pay a visit to the boardwalk, with friends

Down by the boardwalk

ENRIQUE
Stepping into the sun

ENSEMBLE
Down by the boardwalk

JULIO
We’ll be having some fun

ENSEMBLE
Down by the boardwalk

JOHNSON
I’m stuck on duty all day

ENSEMBLE
Down by the boardwalk

FREDERICKSON
Patrol the beach all day

ENSEMBLE
Down by the boardwalk. DOWN BY THE BOARDWALK!

Haiku spillage
Swift strokes attend;
Loose fragments ooze


Observe the gap
In-between thought;
Herein lies peace


Profound thought
Lying in wait;
Inspiration gels substance


Prompts as fatigue
Sleepy moods freeze;
Bedtime romp


Not much to say
No bedtime story;
Just an odd workout


Sea of stars
Moonlight canopy;
Sky charcoal black


Clouds like cotton wool
Misty moonbeam dazzle;
Luna flavours prescribe


Joy in a fling
Meteors in a whiz;
Make a fond wish


Birthday thoughts
Simple celebration;
Party dazzle

Premium Member Good Cheer

Start with faith bold and dare to be,
Opt to know grace with heart that feels;
Ask to unfold with hope that sees,
Reap that clear trace that truth reveals.


Bring inner glow to heal all hurts,
Explore that peace that makes you rich;
Sense charm that shows to purge all dirt,
Touch a sure ease in soul's own niche.


Hurl a grand psalm beyond mere words,
Express a voice beyond the veil;
Reach a wise sum where grace is heard,
Expound a poise beyond all tales.

Abrupt as change these feelings race:
Succinct the swirl of pleasure here,
Explore the strange echoes that grace;
Now how time twirls the vivid cheer,
See yet not see the sensuous spice;
Obsess the touch as raw nerves jump,
Rise to beauty with pretty nice;
Yield more than much the load that pumps.
Charming the poise as feelings strain,
Live lovely grooves that court and woo;
Ignite firm choice with rapture plain,
Make happy moves a daring do;
Allow heart room as body signs,
Xpose bright blooms as delights bind.

Forever September

Yesterday’s September is gone…
Our love at first sight, our time together in 
good times and bad…
Your strong embrace and true love 
I will always remember…

Your faith so strong, anxious for nothing…
knowing your day was close at hand
You chose to be still and always thankful…
Wrapped in the peace of God forever…

You called out to Him, He heard the cry of your heart…
He gave you a spirit of power, love and self control
Your soul you fully did surrender…

The immense pain of your broken body...
Didn’t stop you from seeking and praising 
our Merciful God
He looked your way, uplifted your spirit,
Your pain He did render…

He called you son, it’s time to come home…
But not before those you love are at
your side and you will make them all smile...
For you will soar on eagles wings 
This beautiful day in September…

I held you tight as your last breath…
released your spirit beyond the sky
To see the face of God and His Splendor…
You are crowned a son of God
Wrapped in His peaceful light
Forever, September…

Amor…Enrique Cervantes

Once again we
Come to this earth,
Seek what sets free
This round of birth.


Once again see
The path of peace,
Seek thus to be
With profound ease.


Once again know
The way of joy,
Life ever shows
Allure that toys.


Once again glow
In that fond light,
Love wants to show
Peace beyond sight.


Once again tell
How love can free,
Show how you dwell
That love may be.


Once again live
The life of zest,
Spread poise you give
In humble quest.


Once again touch
In terms most plain,
Yes love can nudge
To ease all pain.


Once again bear
The healer's art,
Each soul can wear
An inspired heart.


Once again find
The way to share,
Seize peace of mind
With love that cares.

Cheer sets the pace
For lovely ease;
Trace a sure grace
In lively peace.


Wear a calm smile
Upon your face;
Word a fine style
In time and space.


Laugh and feel good
In all seasons;
Zest funds warm moods
In bold reason.


Jest works your best
In ups and downs;
Wit puns sure quest
In sage or clown.


Feel that calm urge
To secure peace;
Let joy emerge
To anchor ease.


Watch how life plays
With one and all;
Live just one day
In work that calls.


Death comes too soon
For any man;
Live your high noon
With sanguine plans.


Live each day well
With faith and hope;
Love comes to dwell
To sculpt grand scope.
