They were venturing.  DJ and 
Damali Trech were both 18 years 
Old. The Copy Cat Club was the
Place to  be for teens.  It mostly 
Served...

 Raining morning dawning. Everything is
Best and rest in all Hakim Households.
Hours passed and in Damian's dome
Dolly rose and gently kissed Damian.
"Rise my husband. Strong man I remember 
You." She...

The Spaniel

A Spaniel that uses its head 
Can tell when its owner’s unfed 
So instead of a duck
That is down on its luck 
Will deliver a pizza instead
 
The Afghan Hound

The Afghan’s a dog groomer’s...

The same speech before hardly could bit me
So that were redden both my cheeks for shame,
And after gave  me comfort as to free;

So used to be the spear, I felt the same,
Of Achilles and...

This is my challenge a challenge to all
It’s only for the strong so some of you may fall
It’s a challenge so simple, but so hard to do
And this is the challenge, I set before you

Once upon an olden time and in a far off land
A castle stood above a town, mysterious and grand
Though locals spoke about the place, down in the town below
‘Twas gossip and just rumours, for the...

Walking through the streets of downtown, I find there’s something—Or someone,
following my steps
like a nagging fly, always around the corner, just out of reach
Can’t seem to smack it out of the air
What an annoying little...

The Souther farm stood back, a long way back 
from the road called Joe Long Arm.
The house was low and squat and huddled on the hill 
and it had laid there for eighty years.
Now the...

I've got a fist full of Buddha,
And a fist full of Rand,
A pocket full of Jesus,
And the other's filled with sand,
That's in case I need to make some glass,
As it will proceed my foot in...

A day started out, it really looked bright
no one could recognize just what was in site
how was I to know, the heavens were about to flow
soon I would be escorted, to that place we all...

Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever (Toller)

To “toll” is to dance like a fox
Luring mallards or teals to the rocks
Where a hunter’s awaiting
What the dog has been baiting
Scaring duckies right out of their jocks

The Old English...

I left a world darkened by injustice and human absurdities
That caused in the hearts of so many so many uncertainties.
I heard “Never again” so many times, so much in vain.
Will we ever be able to...

the worker bees buzz &
the management, the authority figures,
crunch down the boots 
on the backs of us all
tossing crumbs & wanting
better production, faster pace,
silence (no talking, only work) &
for us all to be company whores
dedicated...

Hope melts the hues of melancholy
Mystical colors of disgrace and shame
Beckoning for me, hoping to give me
Names of despair, disillusion, desolation
All the adjectives of dismay, discouragement
Words that create a place of disappointment
For the world to...

Had so desired a family
But that was all in the past now
And Samson was no guarantee

Tumult and chaos reign around us
Gushes of water spill from shattered roofs unto bodies
Water does not heal the wounds of besieged people suffering
ln the distance music of two misplaced cellos seek solace

Surely, the demons I face
While my eyes are wired shut
Cannot grasp the taste
But can only smell the blood.

I know they’re laughing at me
Some are pulling me forward
Wanting me to come and see
What lies behind closed...

 Cold the winter night as snow fell,
it drifted-  collected on streets;
where a meandering lost girl struggled to walk,
weary and tired; 
she ran away when it was warm,
when she had some money.

Now-  had...

new pages
old pages
pages of my poetry
pages and pages down under
under my desk dwelling 
under in boxes
boxes dwelling and mingling 
boxes dwelling down under my desk
desk of this writer
desk where I  write sad
sad poems that...

He sat down by the old oak tree, all alone he sat there and cried,
He knew this day would come, as the letter read, son your daddy died.
So far away from home fighting in this...

Haunted by loss-angst that once gripped my heart
I couldn't defy my soul's crying shout:
"My coin... down the storm drain... gone forever!"
Acquainting me with treasure-loss despair.

Missing first slot for scholarship-honour
I felt that "gone forever" was my...

I have sought your place down by the sea
for a heart like mine trothed in unity
I have searched the lands low and high
for Love that would extend unto the sky

I have walked the mountains path...

ANGELS IN THE SKY

Angels in the sky watched Christ on the tree
Waiting for His cry, “Come and rescue Me!”
But He hung there still, those words He did not say,
Submitting to God’s will the price of...

the season of blessings is season of rains,
showers from heavens for humanities gains, 
the rumbling thunder with the low flying clouds, 
with a crack of lightening blitzing aloud!

the tipper tapper then comes waltzing down tracks,
