My father went one third,
I can reach half of the rest.
My son will avail the goal....

When i close my eyes
time has no meaning at all...
one third of a life

To live a life infused with meaning

Happy Birthday to my friend!
One third of the three,
in life’s twisted blend.
Unlikely in all ways,
but twined together till the end....

Cut out of black paper
Japanese
Thrown before a sky

Of night milk
Janitress of a
Lower house

One toothed,
Point hatted,
Flying in front of a 

Victorian curtain
Two thirds storm,
One third dark....

Polar vortex,a large pocket of very cold air,
One-third of US of A has been coated.
Chilling people,freezing land.
May everyone keep safe and warm.
Pull each other hands,lit the fire of love.
Hope global hugs warmth your hearts....

Not an elders place for the old to stay
It’s that pearl’s parliament of now days

For one third of deaf,limb and dumb all pay
For their tones,bellies and long tongues this may 

No one  knows what they come to say
Any one knows they don’t listen to what we say

For schools many foundations they lay
At schools even for rain they didn’t stay!...

Journey's End

Life expectancy
but a breath of existence
from eternity.
           ***

Life expectancy
but a thousand mile journey
to eternity.
             ***

Note:
   A 'li' is known as a Chinese mile and is approximately one third of an English mile or 500 kilometers. A thousand li, metaphorically, refers to a long journey....

Take away the things I want
You're just another dream to haunt
Give to me the things I need
I'm just another mouth to feed
Didn't we expect some blood to bleed
Eight billion swords released from sheaths 
Take your head down from the sky they say
And all of this can go away
But somewhere, they do pray for rain
One third of angels won't remain
The fear, the war, the sickness and the pain
None of these things could ever remain...

The governor announced that gyms
Will open in a week
So all the fitness freaks can start
Improving their physique.

At just one-third capacity,
Facilities will let
Much fewer members enter
To absorb each other’s sweat.

Despite the mandatory masks,
(Assuming all comply)
There will not be a surface
That remains germ-free and dry.

Yet hordes will flock to exercise
And take it all in stride,
While others, me among them,
Will continue walks outside....

a desert turn to glass
a holy weapon
and on to the earth
the beast turns
as it's heads fall
one by one
the death low
for such destruction
and people turn
the lines are formed
but we gather together
and strike as one
breath as one
the death is high 
we come together
build a world of one
we sit in a hall
all are welcome
and all are thanked
we build on one third
of the moon
we block one third of the sun
for a thousand years 
we live in peace
seeing tomorrow...
