The old year leaves us pushed aside
as the clock strikes midnight hour
leaving behind the hopes and aspirations
of us mere mortal souls
Look back not with regret
for it is done and dusted
The New Year arrives with a bang
all eyes watching the count down
as the minutes tick down
a collective holding of breath
Now we pit our hopes and dreams
on the days and months ahead
make promises and grand plans
funny how we never learn
The same each year soon forgotten
as life catches up with us
caught up in the now, promises forgot
Look back not with regret
for it is done and dusted
Happy New Year everyone may your wishes come to fruition xox
Light falls down from the summer's sheer clouds
For the future no gates remain locked, spread your wings
A bird in the sky your soul flies free intoxicating spirits
Upon loves beautiful ray of light drunken wavers
Not dwelling on the past and using energy on what went wrong
Happy people get feelings out done and dusted
Awakening flames dancing butterflies flutter
Warm inner wings a heart takes glorious flight
Brilliance of a rainbow seducing thoughts softly whisper
Life's worth it's weight in gold, why hesitate ?
Inside the mirrors always aglow
Beauty's in the eyes forever one bows and beholds
A co write written by L. Mcdaid and A -L Andresen
At first it appeared nothing was wrong,
But then one cartridge could be seen on the floor
Then more bullets were found scattered nearby
A horde of bullets in a wooden box shacked to the floor.
Through the door you could see a wizened foot,
A body beneath a dirty bloody bullet riddled blanket in the other room.
It was easy to elicit that this was a murder scene, brutal and stark!
Undeniably mordacious was the sign on the wall:
Welcome to 'Home Sweet Home'.
To loiter any longer at the scene was dangerous for me.
Perhaps the killer was hiding nearby?
Perhaps someone would see me there at the scene of the crime?
Perhaps I would be accused of the crime, if I reported it?
So I quickly looked to see if I had left any trace of me at the scene.
I looked around to see if any one was watching.
The 'coast was clear' and so I quietly and hastily got the hell out of there.
A trifle risky to flee the crime scene,
But it's done and dusted, my fate is sealed, I hope that my flight begets no regrets.
Y:
I want to kiss
I heard patience is key
Is that not all about wait?
Waiting for a gist-like fee
L:
You have it all in full
The Dollar and Naira
Let me just not be made a fool
I don't want any more a player
But
My school result is so bad
I heard it is natural
Not that much but a tad
Is it general?
Y:
I want to date a lady with flat tummy
But best lady shine with Gee pee
To enrich relationship so yummy
How early she escaped coz I always want to pee!
But
Unknown to me
And without letting me know
Many are crushing on me
What a crush abuse without a sow!
Yes
That's still fair
Many are ladies that are bold
To woo you out of fear
But it's: sleep with you and japa without being told
And that
Makes me to be watchful
To have no child's name that start with A
Such are ladies always after the do
Eat gents and run away
L:
Things like that make you mad
But don't be so hurt
Have you ever been blocked
On you GF's phone you bought?
Though
All want YAHOO guys
They think fate will tarry
Claiming to be wise
If fate have most BIKE man, won't they marry?
Hmmmmm...
But Wait,
Apart from cheating
What other cheat
Can become of Valentine dating?
It seems
You are in a relationship
You only want me for valentine
Afterwards to skip
The affection of mine and thine
Y:
No
I want you for live
If you see it so you can leave
But letting you go is a blow
Hmnn!
Let's make love
I want to feel your body
To enrage and get disembody
Just don't deny; you are a dove
L:
After my first night with him
I saw his status
DONE AND DUSTED on my way home
I don't think it is something serious
??...
Your status
What's that?
Is it about us
Just like that we part
Y:
Gone so soon.....!
Just some minutes ago I laid my hands on you....!
Today you passed away like noon
January cash out flew
That's all
But if you don't take that
I know you are sad
Just don't find in me any fault
No more apology; you are simply mad
L:
Madoooooo
Done with "Liven in the Lockdown"
We've sold up all our worldly stuff.
We're off tomorrow,
on our other worldly adventure,
our one-way migration to
"Habitat One", Utopia Crater, Mars.
Picked up a nice little condo pad
built 3D from local mud and water.
The 99 Mars year lease should see us out,
as Martian year is twice that on Earth.
This means we are guaranteed to live
twice as long on Mars as well.
Unreal Bonus there!
The Mars Terraforming is going
exceedingly well, should be done and dusted real soon.
It will soon be Just like Earth used to be without the virus.
So, 'tis Real Good News, buddy!
The Mars Realty agent guaranteed
that in five Martian years,
all Us Newbie Martians will
be able to venture out, free as a bird,
and walk among the Martian trees
sucking in the fresh clean air,
without space suits or helmets.
Can't wait. Clean and virus-free air at last!
Best of all we picked up
Elton Musk's used 'Starship 1'
on Ebay for a song.
"Only One Owner!"
"Only Done one Trip into Space!"
"Billionaire accessories and decor"
What a steal!
It only needs to get us there, One Way.
So, one more sleep to go!
See Yah, All!
One world in a trillion
Where everything clicked
In a Goldilocks zone
Where a switch had been flicked
Busted
Perfection soon rusted
When late party crashers
Were grab it and smashers
For eons they blended
Their world complemented
Till fresh out of college
With abundant knowledge
Busted
I’ve loved and I have lusted
I’ve taken and I’ve given
Not much to be forgiven
I never drilled for oil
But I used a small amount
So when the man says dust to dust
I hope that doesn’t count
Busted
Some plastic, some gas and inflammable stuff
So, no use in saying it wasn’t me, Guv
When I get my call from above
I’ve had my heating high
And I’ve had my water hot
I’ve left the faucet running
When I only washed a pot
Busted
That’s me done and dusted
I shall meet my creator
Through no incinerator
The mess we make as humans
Means every man’s on trust
For every year that we spend here
The more world we can bust
Busted
I’ll soon be soil encrusted
And I’d rather like to know
That the cost of me... was low
Light falls down from the summer's sheer clouds
For the future no gates remain locked, spread your wings
A bird in the sky your soul flies free intoxicating spirits
Upon loves beautiful ray of light drunken wavers
Not dwelling on the past and using energy on what went wrong
Happy people get feelings out done and dusted
Awakening flames dancing butterflies flutter
Warm inner wings a heart takes glorious flight
Brilliance of a rainbow seducing thoughts softly whisper
Life's worth it's weight in gold, why hesitate ?
Inside the mirrors always aglow
Beauty's in the eyes forever one bows and beholds

If only was lonely, after what if jumped off a cliff
Saying: "My regret score is too low, I must give it a go."
Dared deed done and dusted
It was game over, own goal,
Score: one down cliff to nil.
So friends met to lament what if,
With thoughts of what might have been, and if only.
His tombstone was inscribed: "Get over it, I dared it with a cliff"
Regret and remorse met in wake
To drown what might have been, with too many toasts,
and liberal serves of hot unscrambled eggs on toast.
Taking risks begets regrets if you fail.
Taking a chance has remorse in its tail
Fate a letter pre-posted in the mail,
Be in it to win it, piles debt in hope chest's grail.
The old year is now done and dusted
It has not been without its strifes.
Headlines of war, murder and much more
Daily we hear of terrible atrosities.
Peace seems a long way off
and Mankind not in the mood.
Yet a spark of hope remains
That one day things will change.
This spark if it is fanned,
could catch alight and burn,
bringing world peace
repairing the harm once done.
People now armed with shovels
replanting all the lost trees.
Animals no longer fearful
turn their trusting eyes to us.
Communities working together
Love for one another freely flowing.
Slavery a thing of long distant past
All this could come to pass.
We just need enough to care
To want to make a change.
Then like the mighty oak,
the seeds will take deep roots.
Just one person who cares
can influence many others
And this world of ours
will once more be paradise.

contest I CAN'T BREATHE: A peaceful Protest, An Anthology of Powerful Poems
Diving deep, it was dark, cold and slimy.
Regulator dummy-splat gulps of air
flowing free into lungs, bubbling blabs out.
I struggled with the mud core collector,
to swiftly exit hole hundred feet down.
Just when the deed was all done and dusted,
I sucked for gasp - a spurt and then it stopped.
I reached up to turn reserve air tank on
but nothing, no surge of air, just fear flow.
No air, a hundred feet down, in despair!
I remembered my training - don't panic!
I tugged three times on safety line - again
No reply, so I faced a free ascent.
I dropped my weight belt, inflated the vest
pursed my lips and whistled, releasing air
in steady stream, fighting desire to stop,
to keep the precious gulp of air in lung.
Straining and kicking frantically up
at last I burst through the surface to gasp
gulps of fresh air, sucked in with great relief,
And then it happened, there was my dear mate
fiddling head down with tangled safety rope
oblivious to my plight - near death fight.
So relieved to be alive, all I said:
"Hey Mate, so nice to see you here again"
