Premium Member Paths of Life

Walking along life’s crooked gardened paths
Becomes more meaningful with time;
First early steps to follow butterflies
In bright sun with cheers to make rhymes
Touching soft pink flowers feels heavenly
Pink shoes; pink ice cream; pink dresses;
Feeling “pink” is great along childhood’s path
Little girls with bows in tresses

Young boys prefer blue on pathway’s palette
Various shades on trucks and sky
While wild animals roam imaginations
This blue pathway soon passes by
Today, I think about these pathways of life—
The blacks and reds of self expression
Those paths wandered into bright new frontiers
Where friends shared deepest confessions

Now I am on a path of reality
One previously untraveled 
Self-made dreams begin to fall all around
Health-related thoughts unraveled
Let pink Roses and blue Wisteria
Border this path with white Hyacinth;
As unfamiliar weeds crowd this pathway—
Meandering through new labyrinth

Escapism

Once upon a long time back
When the woodlands hosted unicorns pack
If you made a wish with an honest heart
At the farthest corner where rainbows start
You could pick your share of the gold-laid sack
Had access to portals,kept lost time's track
Like Narnian Children there and back
Or Wells Traveller,maneuvering mechanical stack
You could marvel,wonder,travel through time
By aid of magic or mere intellect sublime......
See that creature now staggering down Manhattan aisle....
When he could be rowing on imaginations blue Nile,
Not fueled by "candy flipping"....."space basing" all the while,
Ecstasy is phenomenal....perceived the philosphical style
Its the soul that raises question, its the soul that's labelled guile
Decayed,demented,rotten....why be taken for a garbage pile??
So what the Sun squres Neptune as natal chart compile!?
Exploit challenging aspects,edit the Fate's profile
With Neptune's trident,spirits are heightened,
But why the 'bad-trip'....Why must You be frightened???
Why trade sanity for an evening's bruised vanity...??
When with glorius maple leaves,moods can still be brightened!!
There they sit with splendour,enlightening to the core.....
"Patience","Fortitude" wondering! 'will no one heed the lore?
Really Sir! with the prospect of 'Gotham-city' to explore
To choose to roam aimlessly through the poppies Morpheas bore!!!
Forsake this blue atlantic for unknown dreary shore........
No! its not Alice in the land of wonder...!!!
'Tis a victim put to gore.....


         Candy-flipping refers to: LSD and Ecstasy used in combination
          Space basing refers to: crack cocaine and PCP used in combination
          Patience and Fortitude : the famous stone lions guarding the entrance of 
Newyork Public Library  nicknamed so by Mayor Fiorello La Guardia in 1930
