Premium Member Mr Cat - my first post is giving folks problems, so do not see that one
Mr. Cat sits in his chair with all that he could need: a pot of tea and cup nearby and a little book to read. But oh! He needs his spectacles. Too small is his book’s print. While looking for his spectacles, he grabs himself a mint. Ah, now the cat is comfortable. But the tea’s no longer hot. “My oh my,” whines Mr. Cat. “I...

Years Flow By
I watch my years flow by from chair, from sofa, bed. I watch my life go by. And life sees me go by - my folks, my friends, my pals. How long will this go on? What do they think of me as they can see me pass so swiftly, this way, that? Little life goes by from chair, from sofa, bed. What now is there...

My father said they dwell in the myth of the mind, He said they're injurious to the mirror of the...

Kings Fight, Common Folks Face Full Blight
They sure bear battles but no enmities, At borders build brotherhood’s bonhomie, Exchange smiles and burry adversity That may arise from mutual miseries. The wars are won by kings and their counties, Soldiers only fight battles and lay life, Their families suffer deep abject strife, And forgotten once settles all the crease. They that build bridges soon are forgotten, Conquerors cross over, Ravan to...

Tea With Some Folks
The wind came, and sat on his chair As flowers bloomed here and there We sat with the sun, and had some tea The wind invited too his wife, the breeze The trees danced, with the autumn air As the sun sets, with a yellow glare The smell of mud, just before the rain From the clouds, from the skies, We went away,...

True Folks
True folks, True folks have no colours. When I hear about true folks, My heart beats like a silent african drum. My body moves to hug them. There is always happiness to swim With true folks in African rivers Drinking pure waters.  There is much trust to share Important knowledge with true folks. Remember, ...

Best Folks
When some criminals think to be better people because of their skin colours,  their brains are totally damaged. Quote by poet. Better folks, Sometimes some people can think to be who they are not.
