Short Hold Off Poems

Shut the hell up
And let heaven talk.

Tie the hell up
And let the heaven walk. 

When the hell mocks
Let the Heavens rock.

Hold off the hell
And flow with heaven.

Be free from the spell
And feel safe in the haven....

There's a tornado called pain
That comes to destroy me
A hurricane called lies
To knock me off my feet
Thunderstorms called misery 
Trying to take a hold off me
Rains called evil 
That tries to consume me
But...
There is the sun called happy
To show me 
I'm still standing.......

Listen to poem:

i lay awake
listen to your breath
the sound of life and love

the future
we took for granted
and thought would never end

at night
i lay awake
listening
to each precious breath
i hold off worrying
about tomorrow

Our family’s hearth we forgot,
Village well, riverfront, forgot.

Dwelling on idol’s form, figure,
Truth of faith, folklore we forgot.

Trying to hold off teeming tears,
Story’s joyous end we forgot.

Pandemic fears so overwhelmed,
Fixed virus, patient we forgot!

Counting who all contributed,
What all God did oh we forgot!

Cha cha cha
Move to the groove
Feel that heat
Make your feet move
       Sha sha sha
       Jump in the rump
       Let your mind
       Be blinded from the jump
               No no no
               Hold off the cold
               Give me away
               Won't stay in this hold
                      Yes yes yes
                      Rush for the touch
                      Love that density
                      Sensibly, I'm in a rush

Rain walker 
I walk along a long road.
The rain begins to flow.
A drop here and a drop there,oh so lightly.
You listen to the drops as they hit the trees and the signs on the road.
I walk a little faster as the rain is getting harder.
The drop s start to cover the holes in the road as I walk alone.
Rain drops on my head they start to hurt as they fall.
Now the rain walker becomes a runner to hold off from getting wet.
Now it stops I walk in the rain once more....
