Somewhere slipped

sounds like the way to go,
but when I’m told
put down the fork,
I’m ever, oh so slow....

full~ hardened at sunrise
love breaks his fasting
young squaw with belly rounded

One thing you’ll want to know
Is why, as time goes crawling past,
The hours seem so slow!...

My throat feels sore, 
   A thirst that need to adore;
A needless bore, 
   Amidst the heat within my core.

Happy Ramadhan ......

every believer on earth
learn carpentry skills
and build a long ladder
to climb to heaven
prayers and fasting
are delaying tactics
with long rough routes...

Sin took away my Will
Sin took away my Praying
Sin took away my Fasting
Sin took away my Tithing
But Sin could not take away your Word In My Heart...

Fast in gaining rewards 
Fast in taking the way to Heaven 
Fast in protects from the fire of Hell
Fasting makes pale with God for bending for his commands!...

Real positive season
A  month of fasting,
Magnanimity, generosity ,and maidenly  
A time to give up ugly saying and acts
Darling Ramadan!
Am I lucky?
Not sure till the end of it....

My latest diet technique is “fasting” for 12 hours
Each and every day, not a damn thing I devour
Takes great dedication
And strong motivation
More like “slowing” but results still empower...

Jeremiah feels the heat forthrightly
His donations lower more than slightly
While the plate is passing
Seems surely it’s fasting
As it stops and dangles politely

False promises that
 you made to me
Letting me see 
What you wanted 
Me to see
Giving me hope
When none was there
Making me care
And leaving me scared 
 Fasting my heart
To fill me with doubt 
Making me feel 
Just like a small mouse...

 your love is missed
emptiness kissed
echoes lasting
fully fasting

Buddhists monk
Dressed in orange silk robe
Sitting in the city’s square
Burning incense and chanting prayers
After seven day of fasting,
He sprinkles gasoline over his entire body
Then, lighting a match,
Becoming this human touch,
Bringing light to this world...

Silver scales sink in emerald sea
remains of battle, survivors flee
like sunlit rain in forest silent
spiraling down, bottomward sent.

Hungry mouths do now not seek,
tasty flashes. . . the slow, the weak.
No markers note their quiet passing.
except filled bellies, now not fasting....

Sheer cut lace,
A small smile on your face,
On this night of nights We become one,
Lay you gently into the bed,
as I lay my hand upon your head,
Tears not shed glitter in my eye's,
For my love is forever lasting,
And now the fasting is over,so now I let my eyes drink in your sight....

Two bonsai trees 
craving for clouds 
a few handfuls of rain

spiky nuggets 
crying wine glass
fasting salivas 
all might drench
taking the wrench off
the frontal lobe
letting a sprout 
lift it's face

calling lips
on pointed  treetops

palings of a stockade
looking out for death
dislocation of aggression
under estimating the brutality
of wars we cry helpless
majority of democracy
brainwashed by the cruel
minority clamouring for
power to wipe out the
security of thoughts
we are praying for 
them now here
on three legs
fasting...

Strong, brave and beautiful - the queen.
Godsend - cousins in one accord.
Prayer and fasting on scene.
Strong, brave and beautiful - the queen
uninvited… must intervene.
For such a time as this, dear Lord.
Strong, brave and beautiful - the queen.
Godsend - cousins in one accord.
