TO CHARLIE WHO IS THE OWNER OF THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY
O my dear Charlie,
How could you just forget,
Our love for chocolate,
Which was given to you as a factory.
You loved it and had magic,
To make the owner get elevated from tragic,
He was impressed and gave it to you,
And you took it as a gift from him too.
You are the boy of words,
And who flies higher than

Owner of the Stars
They call you the Owner of the Stars.
You hold them in your hands like they're sand.
You create the constellations and carefully place them in
the sky.
So then why are you mortal?
Your calloused hands and curly hair.
Your fragile bones and fatal stare.
You belong in space,
with the orbiting planets and infinite galaxies.
Yet you're right here,
a

LOYALTY
Loyalty is not royalty or power
Being absolutely trustworthy
That others confide in you
Fearless of betrayals or denials
Sharing dreams and secrets
Without hesitating or pondering.
Loyalty binds companions
The bond that bind all together
Both the master and apprentice
The watchword of Nations
Without loyalty no establishments
Loyalty yields cooperation.
Where there's no loyalty
There's always competition
Where

KAROTA THE CATTLE OWNER
Whose cows are those ?
That go to everyone’s garden
Destroying poor farmer’s crops
Whose cows ?
Are on free range
On the whole village.
Where will the poor gardener eat ?
If his source of income is now,
Source of tears
Not of joy
But of sorrow and agony.
Guard your cows
Karota
Unless you want to see blood
Of your animals.
Be careful.
We don’t want you
To start pointing

Beware of the Owner
"To live is to suffer; to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering."
Friedrich Nietzsche
Some say life is a mirror..
Whenever he whistled his eerie tune,
he would always tell me,
'It's my death hymn.'
But, then a grin would appear on his face.
I can recall it was a cold and wet Sunday evening.
I saw him, all sullen

The Poetry Soup Cat
Thank you, Mom for a kitchen floor, sparkling clean.
You make me smile, you are my heart’s very gleam!
Each fun-filled, glorious day, is just ours together.
It really matters, not to us, what the outside weather.
Sun or rain, I snuggle near you, I bring you my peace,
To pen your simple poetry, and may you never cease.
I am

Owner of a Heartless Heart
Sing, sing a song of sadness
Walk, walk this road of madness
Unshackle these chains
That keeps our love apart
I'm just a prisoner
Of your heartless heart
Lie, lie right to my face
Laugh, and put me in my place
All these little games you play
Just tears my world apart
I'm still a prisoner
Of your heartless heart
Nothing, nothing left to sell
Bought, bought and

Glory Knows His Owner Well
Her mouth always tells the story said Glory
Glory was her dog, who replaced dead Tori.
They looked like twins, weirdly enough.
But Glory knew his owner, he knew his stuff.
If her mouth is prissy and tight, you best run.
She’s in a foul mood, she will be no fun.
If she has a fake smile, that is even worse.
Take

My Owner Has Flown
Look into my eyes
Tell me what you see
A cavernous emptiness
A rolling sea
A flicker of light
Like somebody's home
Or a sign that says,
“Sorry, my owner has flown”
“To parts unknown
Been gone for a while
Trust he'll return soon
Am losing my smile”
There are no guarantees
It's a roll of the dice
Will keep you posted
Send luck that'd be nice
Hang on I think
