With such a high melting point.

Kindness is rain
that waters dry plants
kindness is oil
that removes life’s frictions
kindness is gold
that adds value to an alloy
kindness is butter
that makes dry bread a delicacy
kindness is white cloth
that wipes tears of the tortured...

Your hands were chopped off.
   How will you write 
      the poem now ?

     *

   Truth was-
an alloy. Need to mix some
   lie in pure gold.

             *

   Why did the 
roses cry ? The saint was 
   not in the tomb.

You are my empty page of love 
my double spaced sheet of solid white 
you are my blank canvass 
my heavenly shade of metal alloy 
and I am your Helen of Troy 
This Iliad of love 
contains spark notes of our passion 
No Greek God can ever compare to you 
you 
my warrior of all Time .......

Nonce, twaffling and outgrabbish trolls,
pilgriffed and trumbled threen by doggerel.

All did amphigorous cleem to shwangle the shweeng,
and shming the shmengle without shmee.

Alas! Alack! Alloy! 
Jimble! Jingle! Twimble! Twoy! 
Jabberwocks and jumblies;
Trinkles and troys,
With toves and raths
In joves did cloy....

These years are
said to be gold, but
if truth be told,
I prefer the silver, brass,
or alloy of any kind.
I do not mind the aging
the years unfold,
I just don't fancy being
considered old,
And old poets do not
die, go to the here-
after.  They write
another chapter. then
all things being
equal, they scribble
a sequel....

Pathway to joy
paved gold not alloy

Resolute and true
eternal life in view

Our pathway to joy
paved gold not alloy

A life passionate,yet pure
A promise so sure

On  pathway to joy
paved gold not alloy

Creating compassion
learning His lesson

Our pathway to joy
paved gold not alloy...

Why insensibly annoy
The three-year-old boy
With tales about Ancient Troy
That does gaiety destroy,
When you can his vivacity buoy
With some blue-eyed toy
Or a much sweetened soy
That heightens a child’s joy;
Or before him act a decoy
Or some crazy song employ
About a girl unprofitably coy
The Pure Gold, a sweetened soy
Tales about Troy, The Alloy....

My heart of steel an alloy
Of hard work and perseverance
Silver-coated with patience

My heart of steel is as non volatile
As a diamond molecule
It is rust free, a stainless steel
nonreactive to destructive criticism

My heart of steel is though resistant
To the magnetism in sugary temptations
It is not moved by the muscle
Of bitterly howling winds….....

From His heavenly glory, He took a nap
His death brought salvation in a snap
to redeem mankind from a deadly kidnap.
Many see him as a personality to annoy
others view him as a mere divine decoy
to some, have faith in his strong support like alloy.
He has already paid the price against any weapon
as for me and my house, on him we’ll always rely upon.

Daughter.

Mother's true treasure and bundle of joy,
Father's pride,strength and tender coconut,
A prolonged fragrance of lotus thats coy,
Reflections she has of parents clearcut,
Princess of pure heart,no chance of alloy
Well! Character from her genes she employs.

Brace into frail wisp sleep
To own fear's blind belief

Undertow foils sunrise break
Through misty green storms

Born of censor fatal shade
Smother sands coil space

Hidden present ready fogs 
Distant past regression

Under sun drenched sky appears 
Matters born unspoken

Covered infants alloy thrown 
Under trapped ice overture

Sounds solvent stricture screams 
From children lost at sea...

The rift
They say comes from deep
within.
But I beg to differ
Isn’t pink a compromise between
red and white?
At times even slightly
approaching lavender?
So why should it not
make a concession?
An indulgence
A consideration for the niceties
of the heart.
Dear pink alloy
So pure yet so imprudent.
Or is it that the alloy which was
refuses to acknowledge the alloy
which could become?
How my heart yearns for
your sweet fragrance!

Spread your petals and
Bid me inhale....

The broken egg shows alas its golden heart
And crumbled shell too thin for glory
But perfect still for passion's pencilled art
The magician tells you the dream's story

Young boys twisted by the aroma of desire
And fledgling girls flapping dreams for joy
This, whole dusty worlds rake and inspire
Making out of liquid lust flesh in flesh's alloy

I was born for more that death or vacant dream
Of love, something in the hope of lovers' heart
Yet lost in the illusion of our gospelled theme...
