The broken piggy bank
strewn into a bajillion little pieces

especially, an unavoidable...

The Menu That Built the Empire

Don’t worry about being thinner
Get yourself off down the pub
Then go home to a good British dinner,
Of British traditional grub

Delicious roast beef of old England
Served up with a thick Yorkshire pud
With roast spuds and cabbage...

A few things you should know about the things I love
like the magic of watching asteroids above
the fact that I was born on Easter Day
the joy of buying a summertime bouquet

Hopes Are Till Alive Today

I don't ask for a bed of clouds
My Lord! I don't want respect
I want my home in your poly-form earth
I'm interested to work for those
who work for themselves
I may not be a poet,
Can't write love...

Poignant I move out daily 
With a hope for a superior tomorrow 
Coz all this is just a ‘yes sir’ affair
And that I think I am not ready for it yet
Between the two...

Holiday Brunch

Cracker Barrel — always a favorite.
Not my first choice today, but
we go where the grandkids go.

Warming my hands with coffee cup
...waiting...tap, tap...for the follow up.

Gazing from my hut through the global window.
I saw a golden pot of soup
Out of which millions of aroma did flow
And a lovely label engraved on it reads poetrysoup.

Rich Man Vs Poor Man

The poor man on the street
With threadbare dress and blistered feet 
'Tis his slogan, he howls,
"I feel hungry, my stomach growls."

The rich man sits to eat
With silken dress and stockinged feet
Tells after his plateful,
"I'm not...

Paragon of Virtues

Paragon of virtues in not here
All there is are jests 
Reapers of fruits of sorrow
Apologists of denied rights
Givers of plateful of tears 
Oedipus creatures of tragedy 
Notorious angels of piracy 

Over-seers of dangling diabetic bellies

Aunty Betty

Aunty Betty ate spaghetti 
Every chance she got
For every plateful
Very grateful, she
Would scoff the bloomin’ lot

Several times a day
With every course
A different sauce, and
That’s just how it would stay

Aunty Betty ate spaghetti
