R-ainy day is not forever,
A-s Friday turns into Saturday;
I-n eighteenth of March,
N-ight cold chill fades away.

A-fter the evening storm,
D-awn warms the weather;
A-n early beacon comes up,
Y-es, rainy day is not forever....

I wouldn't mind par

but I'd prefer a birdie

anything but one, double, or

triple bogey.

Eagles are too high for my aim

but I still love this game.

After the eighteenth I'll

have a drink at the bar

and let my mind soar....

M-aking a sweet success
I-s a goal you want to reach; 
A-pril eighteenth Tuesday, waves go ashore in the beach.

C-herish the huge victory, 
O-f the fight with all your might; 
M-ove on against all odds, 
B-ig win doesn't come
O-vernight....

Lovely young woman,
Full of charm and wonder,
Your life lies before you,
Plans and dreams to ponder.

No longer a child,
Today you're eighteen,
And what you'll become,
Remains to be seen.

The whole world is yours,
With opportunities galore.
Spread your wings and fly,
There's so much to explore!...

Treatise of love suborn
Of feelings, desires shorn
With parochial aspirations born
On ritual wings bourne
Romance brokered forlorn
On christening morn, personal 
license torn
Deeded by title; underwritten 
with scorn
Parceled with dowry; with 
annuities adorn
Liabilities, a fitted mantle 
charitably worn...

J-ust let eighteenth of March
A-im to meet the Saturday; 
Y-our birthday has come, after the night fades away.

B-urning beacon rises
A-bove the new horizon; 
Y-awning and sleep both end
O-n the break of dawn.
M-orn has just broken, bringing warmth and light; 
O-bliterating the dark to make the skyline bright....

Haunted by uncertainties it dares to move on and on
So bright and hot that can burn down anything into ashes
passing through all the borders is its boldness
Ability to cut the limits maybe its sharpness
This eighteenth spirit should have its own whip
And have enough courage,
to tame itself to be in the right ship!...

J-ust let Saturday pass, 
E-vading the sunny Sunday; 
S-un rises above the horizon, 
S-hadows have faded
A-way.

L-et eighteenth December
U-se the beacon to be sublime; 
Z-enith stays in the sky, 
A-waiting the noontime.
R-adiant rays up high
A-re shining in delight; 
T-wilight and dusk
A-re left in the night....

D-awn eighteenth February
O-pens the day with light; 
M-orn early Saturday
I-s setting things aright.
N-ight cold chilling rain
I-s nowhere in view; 
C-oal clouds have disappeared into the dark, gray, and blue.

L-et your pen and ink
A-im to meet the paper; 
R-ight words are arranged, 
A-s you write a long letter....

J-ust let Saturday sun 
O-pen the day with light; 
A-fter the twilight is gone, 
N-ew dawn leaves the night. 

M-orn eighteenth February 
O-bliterates the shadow; 
R-ise of the beacon begins, 
A-llowing the dusk to go. 
D-rink not alcohol to enjoy the fine weather; 
A-llow your mouth to take a lot of ozonized water....

Magic scenes 
drift blissfully 
across 
my gleaming eyes 
that capture lush green 
images 
or peer 
with deeper 
focus 
at heaven’s 
golden rungs 
ascending skywards 
as a blue enchantment 
lures 
perceptive life lights
