The era of 2020
It was neither healthy nor wealthy;
Being expensively lengthy.
Chaos was caused,
Outside visiting was paused
looks like 2020 had brought Thanos along
but our marvels (morals) were strong.
Lakhs of people suffered from this disease,
But many of them took it with ease,
That’s why our offline classes were seized.
Earth was in lockdown
Education was also out of town.
Children did not like the situation
online education was the revolution.
We couldn’t go to schools
Since this virus is cruel,
However, no one stopped us from shining like a jewel.
A salute to the frontline warriors
A salute to our saviors
And to the ones who show empathetic behavior
Along with their endless labor
Which is incomparable.
It was the hardship
That broke up apart
But its the love
That still holds us together
Thus, we may be young or old,
but we must be bold,
against this virus untold…
When is physical restraint equipment
also dirty laundry?
When your daughter vomits
all over her school bus transport harness,
When she could have more safely,
and less expensively, traveled
in a six-seat van
with her contenting seat belt on
Rather than shackled to her seat
and unshackled into her school
Where all unharnessed big girls and boys
hierarchically go
to not air their dirty laundry.
I heard you described me as gold
I heard you beautified me
I heard you boasted about me
I heard you final declared your love towards me
Is it because you just realized that i am gone
That I am finally someone's galaxy
That I now reign in someone's heart
That I now have a kingdom to rule
Is it because my beauty has enhanced
That I now dress golden garments
That i wear a smile worth more than your pockets
That my body is perfumed expensively
That i no longer walk on common ground
Is it because i own the little mines you opened
Is it because my face is on the coin you have
Is it because she decorated your kitchen with my face
Is it because your memories are bitter
Is it because you want to reverse time
Is it because i did not fall when you pushed me down
Is it because you failed to love me
I heard you praised me
I heard you bought me a flower
I heard you prayed for my return
I heard you told them I loved you
The honest you did not tell them is
How you brutally hurt me
How you murdered my love
How you buried my heart
How you pushed me aside
And how you hid me with bruises
I heard you wrote me a note
But now I am gone
Dawn flings
Sparkling light;
Dreamy daze ends
~~~~~~~~~
Birdsong serenade
By balcony rails;
Solo performance
~~~~~~~~~
Joy words
Inner music rhymes;
Passion ignites
~~~~~~~~~
A lover's touch
Kindness blooms;
Ecstasy confronts
~~~~~~~~~
Hush of morning
Soft footfalls;
Early rising
~~~~~~~~~
Musical notes
Neighbour's house warming;
Happy escapades
~~~~~~~~~
New eatery
Upmarket permutations;
Expensively nice!
~~~~~~~~~
Lunch discourse
Three voices shared;
Birthday meal here
~~~~~~~~~
Fragrant moments
Wind through bamboo pines;
Airy aromatics
~~~~~~~~~

Singapore
There is a monster in Loch Ness
Which has been seen, more or less
And tourists flock with cameras zoomed
To be quite expensively roomed
And even if the photo shows a grey, grained blotch
At least the bar sells a lot of Scotch.
A kite is what women are, soaring alone in the clouds
Well you often cross planes, soaring like mistakenly fired bullets
She's a Fly GirLLLLL, we all know
Nails are expensively spa done, hair in a honey bun
Fly GirLLLLLs using all those hair chemicals
House partying, house partying opens a sinful desire to drink, truth or dare drinking rules apply
The Fly GirLLLLL is drunk off rum, the pilot's love her, lusting chewing bubble gum
The sex drive on this plane grew thumbs
She's the flyest so how can she fall low
Thats not ladylike, she likes what a man like
We need to work on her lady entitlements tae-bo, Men are easy to entitle any woman a Hoe
Yes of course Fly GirLLLLLs, no matter the state of the high
No matter if the truths a lie, Fly GirLLLLLs representations encounters death
Fly GirLLLL do you know the word die, do me a favor always remember your fly
Be happy when the family is hindering Britney, Fly GirLLLLL rules are she picks a real Fly Guy

Technology is taking over the world,
Granite were not walking in the sky as in the Jetsons
But were flying..
We've got computers that fit in our pockets
Cars you can plug into the wall,
Sauce that taste like apples!
This world,is Amazing
Amazingly Amazing..
Electric bills for thousands of dollars
Open the bill and let out a holler!
This world,is Expensive
Expensively Expensive..
The Sun stays out until 9 pm!
Orange and Red like a everlasting sky Fire,
Yearning to be put out.
The Pink clouds mix with black smoke
From the local Brewery
Which now offers 64 flavors of Beer,might I Say!
This world,is Polluted
Pollutedly Polluted..
This world changes everyday,in different kinds of stupid ways
We live our lives like there’s no tomorrow
But there is!
There wont be,if we keep on the way were keeping..
Day by Day,by Week by Month by Year,by Decade..Century`
