FRUITLESS PIES

Fed up with tasteless pastries from the high street baker,
I planned to take a stall in the market
And provide my tried and tested range of pies.
But, though well meant, when I saw the rent,
It was far too high.
My plan was just pie in the sky

Cold war

When will the cold war
That is going on in the world end?
I think it is so sad that the children have to live in the Countries that they have cold wars
But the children are the victim of this cold war because sometimes they End up killed by bombs that they fired in The air
And the children becomes the innocent victim of the cold war
I also wished that I could bring some children out of the Count
ries that are in war to save them and give them a life here in Canada that they don't have at home

Woolen Testament

they used
to say if
there's a
will there's
a way and so

i tried not
to live with
materialism
but given now
at my age i've

accumulated
dated and what
i thought were
savable things
thinking how

could i
throw
these
memo
ries away

so my attic
fills as does
my basement
one mouse filled
the other mold damp

mouse traps and
a humidifier can't
make or keep
them to last
but what is

lost when they are
found by a stranger
the memory that
surrounds them
and grounds

their electricity
or some say
an aura but
before i go
there

i just have
to say i had
these things
as part of me
and so in sound

mind and body
both creaking
and cracking
i am passing
this stuffing

on to 
my son
because
i willed it
in my will

it's so much
easier to give
these things up
when i go
belly

up

Innocent

In the game of life you can’t cheat

Not all will win; some will lose

No one chooses their hand

One must learn to play

Cards dealt by fate.

Each flip cost, 

No second

Tries.


(Infinitian)

On the Way To Your Heart

G-ood and warm wishes 
R-eplace the bad weather; 
A-llowing the rain to fade, 
C-omforting your heart 
E-ver. 

S-weet and good greetings 
A-re coming after the night; 
N-ovember second day 
T-ries to set things 
A-right. 

A-wesome penned regards 
M-ake your mind remember 
A-ll the words they bring 
R-ight then and there. 
A-llow an acrostic to make 
N-othing but a fresh start; 
T-his rhyme moves softly 
O-n the way to your heart.

Moon Gazer At Midnight

M-oon gazer at midnight 
A-lways awaits the sunset; 
R-eady to stay awake, 
J-oining not the woeful fret. 
O-nce she gazes at the moon, 
R-apture she'll truly feel; 
I-n spite of the darkness, 
E-vening shadows and chill. 

E-ach ray from the moon 
N-ever will fail the gazer; 
D-azzling star nearby 
I-s pleasant to the beholder. 
E-very night she watches 
R-adiant light from the moon; 
A-llowing the brightness to bring her the big boon.

C-almness and serenity 
O-f the moon are both felt; 
N-ightmares and fears 
S-hall all eventually melt. 
T-enth November midnight, 
A-s she looks upon the sky; 
N-either moon nor star 
T-ries to make her cry. 
I-n her bed she can't slumber, 
N-either eye can sleep tight; 
O-pen to see the gleam, moon gazer at midnight.

Make Your Birth So Nice

M-ake Wednesday forgettable, 
A-llow it to pass by; 
E-xpect another new day beneath the blue sky. 

A-llow the beacon to erase 
P-ain, sorrow, and heartache; 
I-n fifteenth December, 
L-et Thursday dawn break. 
A-n early morning sun 
D-ries the tears in your eyes; 
O-pen your heart to red rays that make your birth so nice.

Goal of the Guide

G-reat goal of the guide
R-emains full of light; 
E-very truth it reveals
T-ries to set things aright.
C-hoose the goal of the guide, 
H-appy life is on the way; 
E-arnestly learn to follow, 
N-ovember thirteenth Monday.

R-emain in the right path, 
O-bey the sacred aim inside; 
Y-our heart hears the voice
O-f the goal of the guide.

God Always Lives

L-ord God always lives
I-n your heart, soul, and mind; 
S-ee His endless power, 
S-ee it wherever you're
A-ssigned.

D-eath fears the Lord, 
A-lmighty God never dies; 
N-either beginning nor end
T-ries to blind your eyes.
E-arly morn twelfth of June, new day, He again gives; 
S-howing that He never sleeps, because God always lives.
