Amidst the vast fertile lands
the little huts of the people stood,
Hoarding the millets from the field
To their feathery friends, they offered their yield
Savouring the millets and cereals
And sitting on the ceiling of corridors,
Making their nest close to the doors
Chirping throughout the day and night
They made our ancestors' days bright
Mingled like real joyful dudes
They even shared people's food
Wandering around with their family
They welcomed our guests warmly
They never felt shy , they never did cry
They never ever worried
But that's an old story
When the huts became royal flats,
When the fertile lands became empty plots
These little birds found no place to halt
they flew away, granting us, the feelings of guilt
But now, when people savvy their worth
Sweet sparrows, decide to reappear
Their comeback slams the extinction-myths
Their comeback cheers the earth
Reemerged our cute little friends
Is not it our onus to make their population ascend
Return their place to them
We will embrace peace then

On the tenth of May an angel
Was born in far eastern country;
He grew up with no worldly things,
Neither gold nor prosperity.
But he was called by the Father
As messenger in these last days
To preach the pure, pristine gospel
To all people from any race.
The prophecies were all fulfilled,
As the Church Of Christ reemerged;
God's messenger was instrument,
Letting faith, hope, and love converge.
He's not alone in his mission,
For the one true God was with him;
He was guided by God's great light,
Seeing bright day, not dark or dim.
He used not his own opinion
To show the world the only way;
The gift of God to all humans
Had begun on the tenth of May.

As per thinketh me, in vespers got...
It's all about what's hot, what's not...
My mind went 'out', and tried to think.
But, I came back, and had a drink.
I glumly reemerged, later that night.
As I was took back, an awful fright.
Drinking is bad, as my mind thought...
As I poured another, and another I bought.
Then I remembered, what I almost forgot.
Help me now, as I reminisce on the spot.
It escapes me now, what I almost forgot.
But you can help me, eh, more than alot.
As per thinketh me, in the vespers, I got.
It's all about, what's hot, and what's not.

The moon was full
a bright yellow orange chandelier
lighting the walkways through the garden.
It rose slow along the eastern horizon
hours after the sun had set
as it shadowed the brilliant light.
Midnight found it on the cusp
as if noonday had reemerged
and all the world stood quiet in awe.
For a moment
brief as it was
not a sound protruded.
Quick as it rose higher
cloud cover moved in
and it was gone.
