Love Versus Money Your Choice

Intelligence 
Knowledge 
Ivy League 
State Educated
Working Class 
Upper Class
Held in high regard 
Or a lowly security guard
Single Parent
Family of 10
Reared in a Pen
Holidaying in the Hampton's 
Penthouse suite on the corner of 5th and Central
Bus commute to work
Or Chauffeur driven limos 
And Broadway shows 
Or pint of beer and salt and vinegar crisps 
Hand me downs and a handshake from dad for a birthday gift
Can't buy love
Can't put a monetary price upon it
Its priceless 
Everything else is window dressing
There are as many if not more 
Unhappy wealthy people than there are poor


Premium Member A Row of Beans

Finally getting back into the swing of it

Holidaying in the Dominican for a week

Sure did wonders for my psyche

Appreciating what I have a whole lot more

Aside from the absolutely gorgeous

All-inclusive resort we stayed in

Living conditions there were sad to see

But in spite of it all, Dominicans have a lust for life

The smallest thing makes them smile

A great big wide sparkling smile!

Was I impressed? You can bet your sweet bippy I was!

We uptight North Americans could learn a lot from them

About what's REALLY important in life

As long as we have loved ones who care

Everything else just amounts to a row of beans!

Unsaid

Dont know what to write ,yet sat down too.
sometimes its hard to pen the thoughts,

they are so deep in heart and mind
 which wanna stay there and feel safe unsaid.

heart and mind are so different being in one
always contradictory.

then how can i expect you to understand me.
I feel betrayed and worse for what you did.

 just few words changed my entire world.
glad that you showed yourself though
after my ruin.

the lessons are heavy on heart n mind.
words have to power to make or shake.

I am so lost and confused to know
whether this  is poetry or not.

just a scribbling of unexplained emotions.
would be so nice,just someone reads
my mind and heart,just to see what
I am into.

 dont take me for granted ,dare not
and not be judgmental.

coin has two sides and I have a heart to feel.
 all the pain goes away with a smile,
              holidaying in the
golden memories of the past ,
holding back the flow of tears too.

Premium Member Audrey- An Inspiration

A Belgium born lady of sweet refine
but an inspiration in all she overcame
emerging from the darkness of the war
to be a real star but always remain the same

Became a royal princess holidaying in Rome
this set her off to star like filming fame
Sabrina, Charade, Funny Face were four fav
her leading men hearts being cast aflame

Breakfast at Tiffany's set in Manhattan
places Audrey as the modern fashion icon
so many movies bringing rich acclaim
now just memories as Audrey's gone

Although a famous Hollywood star
loved her home among the Swiss
there her and it's beauty ideally matched
where Miss Hepburn enjoyed such bliss

A great lover of little children
did so much for those tragically poor
a real star with a human touch
Audrey an inspiration truly you are


(My tribute to my favourite star - Audrey Hepburn, who oozed class and beauty, who was truly humble and human.)

Premium Member Town Called Tranquillity

I'm in the town called Tranquility absorbing the sun 
Holidaying am I amidst the valley of said sins
Such joyous commotions viewing children's fun
Seeing happiness abound in wondrous spin
But it's the nature of being here, knowing it's begun
Cotton wool clouds caught by grayed demons be
It's just a matter of moments that they engulf all we

Next morning I awaken to skies of deadened grey
In the distance funnels of evil rotate their dread
Swirling spiral vortexes never shy in their display
Their ignorance now shared delivered imbed
Such her power no prisoners she now portrays
Overturned cars, houses adrift trees now stripped
If such were to be human on a drug fueled trip

God, build me some mountains to surround this plain
Allow said sins to be attracted to forever dissipate 
Never to allow grief as such, these tremendous pains
Their height being there simply closes the vortex gate
Lets learn from said angers that they never will again
I'm in the town called Tranquility absorbing the sun 
Holidaying where am I, seeing parasols in lightly spun

Hard Work Means Easy Success

This is a message to children who lack sincerity in school. Hard work always gives easy success. Whatever hardwork we do during our school days, decides our future for entire life. Its not only about studies but the sincerity which is developed along with it.

This is a story of two brothers.
Who lived together forever.

Both enjoyed the dignity of a patrician.
Well bred with values and tradition.
Sharp contrast of a Strategician and a tactician.

JUXTAPOSITION OF HARDWORK DURING SCHOOL DAYS

Given his druthers, Veerang would skip studies,
Would escape to play snooker and pool with buddies.
A boaster, prodigal spender and his pathological lies.
Hard work during childhood is just about studies, he didn’t realize.

Krishnang, sincere and studious, positive and jovial.
Help to mom, a great company to sisters, extremely capable.
Topper in school, loved by all, he was just so amiable.

Yes, both grew together.
One believed in hard work, another preferred leisure.

JUXTAPOSITION OF HARDWORK DURING ADULT HOOD

With freedom comes responsibility.
It’s not only about us but our family’s and parent’s dignity.
Hard work during childhood decides our ability.
Yes, our capabilities and the possibilities
In a way our acceptability and applicability.

Krishnang, goes for holidaying across nations.
Veerang is still striving to boil the ocean
What an irony, hardwork now is a compulsion.

Premium Member The Nature of Man. Co-Written With Carolyn Devonshire

My molten core is bursting at the seams
Billowing ash and smoke circle above
Volcanic eruptions are on the rise
Intense balls of fire I toss from my glove


  That damnation isle, this Icelandic land
  Eating away at our profits, typically planned
  This mother nature, no dollar sense
  No bonus for us, can she redistribute and condense
 
 
Mankind has been playing hardball too long
His head's over-sized and his ego too strong
Iceland is but the tip of the iceberg
I'm now plotting the next eruption surge


  There she goes firing of again
  Airports are closing, grounding more aeroplanes
  Tourism again hampered by her vociferous bellows
  Which is a pain in the ass for us holidaying fellows


Don't toy with my gifts; I'll be more gentle
Your fine Earthly home is but a rental
Be kind to my creatures both great and small
Perhaps my fiery heart will cool down after all


  Perhaps we have been harsh shooting from the hip
  It's a trait of man, it's why we self worship
  We appear to have grown a streak of selfishness
  As we now look around at our self made mess

Count Dracula

 Count  Dracula a haunting figure, through centuries alike
desending on Whitby,an eerly thought, also a shuddering fright
between my hometown Middlesbrough, and the seaside port
the 199 steps to the abbey dwells a frightening thought

Holidaying in Whitby, many times in our youth
the tails of the night stalker,petrifyingly uncoath
tucked up at night, a feeling of surreal
Dracula would hound the streets, lives for the steal

Preying on the vulnerable,gaining all their trust
attacking unexpectedly,for blood that is a must
his black cloak, gaunt profile,terrifying vitality
protruding teeth over over ruddy lips, so remarkably

The Transalvanian terroriser, 400 years ago
puncturing the necks of ladies,blood does slowly flow
evidently the Count,his resting place Whitby Abbey
1000`s do attend each year, a gothic ceremony.

1st in contest.

Premium Member December of That Year - Act 1

I travelled to New York in December of that year
Flying over the Atlantic as the world began to fear
Panic was in abundance as religions declared their all
About the Mayans and 2012 for their writings depict our fall

I flew into JFK, just a Highlander holidaying loon
Booking into my hotel, unknowing of tomorrows strewn
I settled into the night, turning on the news
The channels were reporting the possible, leaving me confused

I awaken very early, it's now December the 21st
The sky appears to be yellow, like the sun has finally burst
I'm seventy stories up, and the hotels in violent shake
I hear loud drones above so it cannot be a quake

Dark shadows pass my window, although it's early morn
I start to think back to the news last night, is this earths forewarn

Premium Member Exceptional Holidays

Memorable was this holidaying session
Memorable indeed for it was when I went through some transformation
From a mere human being
I became one so damning

Yes, it was on a trip to the Asian countries
I was seventeen at that time, full of romantic worries
A real escape it was
To see, from a new land, stars

Watching the night sky all alone
To a vampire's will, was I so prone
He was a handsome boy, looking so young
But it did hurt, when my neck he stung

I cried out in pain, fell onto the ground
Woke up a while later, in a dazed astound
Yes, the guy was gone
But I knew it then, that I now had a heart of stone

I was well cared for, made to stay indoors for some time
Soon came the day to leave the vacation land
Why, everyone did think that I was human
For I still did look same

But since then, I am but a creature of the night
I can fly, kill and give the devil himself a great fright
I shall live as my fate shall will me to
For someday, I believe the end shall have to come see me through!
