East West north or south, I just want to sing and shout
We have just had a nice little shower,
To cool down the boiling temperature,

Depression damages me in distress

butter gives an oozing hug--
bitter choc just melts

mmm, good, just so good
chocolate tickles tongue...
happy throaty slide

messy brown fingers
hot weather melts bittersweet--
oh! just lick them off

There was a young lassie named Heather,
Who played on the beach in hot weather,
She thought it a sin,
Just dressed in her skin,
So covered herself with three feathers.

Dawn hurls
Magic aura;
Song birds sing

Cheery sunrise
Poetry of light;
Ceremonious new day

Busy food court
Crowded queues;
Hunger strikes a pose

~~~~~~~~~


Early morning queue
Banking transactions;
Money on the move

~~~~~~~~~


Friendly fruit vendor
Skins three...

Things are getting out of hand,

Passing by the wet market,
seeing flowers—
decided to buy some, 
to brighten the day,
one of those inside-gloomy-days

The sun was beating down,
and even the roses were scorched
but the lady selling them had a smile,
since she knew that...
