Merrily, my soda hopped, skipped …rolled merrily along, jumping hurdles of falling leaves, sloping t’wards steep driveway.

Wondering why life can't be happy, I look forward and see despair, I...

THE TENSED ENVIRONMENT. Hurdles come in between My teaching and preaching About keeping and maintaining The beauty of my horizon. Little did I know That my thoughts were unknown To my users whom I bestowed My body and soul. I have been trying everything within me To make them understand what I mean But they all seem to be numbs and indeed A caricature of...
