The Unexpected Gift From Pd
~The Unexpected Gift~

There is no wrapping to tear away
No expectations of a gift
No birthday or anniversary today
Nothing expected to give a lift

No favours given and none asked
No unpleasant or overly tiring task
Nothing promised no debt to pay
There seems to be nothing to gainsay

No wrapping paper...

Nat the Nut's Prophetic Vision
No one seemed to take much note at first.
Old-timers on park benches passed a comment or two,
Somebody wrote a letter to the local rag,
but no one (who mattered, that is)
really seemed to mind.
Of course, you will always have 
your bellyachers and woolly romantics 
with nothing...

BEWARE the BEAST! She bites! She Snores! She Snorkels!
No wonder Dragon likes her so much! She also Snarls, and Drools!
No one dares to wake her up… After they’ve done it, a time or two.
Yes! This is our leader, the one, Dragon thinks is so wonderfully...

"Fly me high through the starry skies
Maybe to an astral plane
Cross the highways of fantasy
Help me to forget today's pain"- A stanza from Gary Wright's "Dream Weaver"

In dreams that drift as surely as the sand
along the banks of oceans in my mind,
he wanders in, and...

My Mum and Me
Love,  calumniousness and my calmness.
Caste, colour and religion, castrating me pish. 
Pitiable placability, pendiculation and scurrllity,
A scullion leads ashtray, arrogant, juggling kiss.
In funds gainsay gad about, execute fustigation,
Fulsome excelration and Ju Ju, jest misconceived stress. 
A gawk but gallant frizzled fuddle and frolic,
Exert pickings...

Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Day
A wind of gratitude is waving
River of love is dancing, exhibiting wonderful styles whiles meandering
Cloud of commemoration is drifting.
All to say ‘’ayeekooo’’’’Osagyefo y3 ma W'amo’’..


The throne is set, come and receive a panegyric
You are a relic in our memories
Posterity will always judge in your favor

The Hunger
The hunger

Horrendous afternoon, breeze chose to be still
Dilapidated hut in the midst of the hill
Frail and fragile sat she at the threshold
Crying baby in lap about an year old
Both wrapped in rags covering their bony frame
Emaciated and starved, whose game to blame?
Small patch of green...

Because Death Was Jealous
Your angelic girlhood I ruined
And your upscale lifestyle you abandoned
To lull the little me while I groaned
And nourish the frail me as I matured
All because in me you hoped
But to take back you never lived
Because death was jealous

As I grew, hand in hand we walked...

Burden
Burden

Would anyone notice if i were gone,

How long before anyone would come,

What if i just slowly became withdrawn,

This game of chess i am simply a pawn,

Is it easier for them to just ignore me,

Not acknowledge the issues they can see,

Sweep it under the carpet like...

IF YOU PULL A LONG FACE : Part XXXIII

IF you pull a long non-plussed face
Astrophysicists declare Science no Absolute Truths underlay
Big-Crunch might on Big-Bang back bounce about face
Who'll say All-This's but mere hearsay

If you pull a long heretical face
Opt for accidentally ordered Life as did...

The Throne of Happiness
To the Throne of Happiness
I bow down to your Court 

Your Grace

Surely you do not bear false witness to my accounts
My Lord

Ever have I induced to stay in your good graces

For I sweareth my utmost obedience to your whims
Your Majesty

Never shall I gainsay
Your Highness
