Message From a Lost Friend

Throat was dry
Even no tears to cry.
In  mids of the desert-
Failure was every try-
It was then-
A sudden change-
When I felt drops of rain-
Came and washed away my bane.
Breeze then whispered a doh-
Pointing to colors of rainbow-
Your message came like that “Bea”
Though this time not from Pretoria.
(sami)

Good, the Bad, the Ugly

I
A savings account on Bay & Bloor -
Toronto Dominion Bank (sold?)
My thousands frozen, yet not gone
Reminder: Anil, are you a good steward?

II
Three flats in Pretoria, South Africa
Left with Property Management Company
HUURKOR, now five decades old
Broke contract when my rent was short

III
After six decades on planet earth
I confess, I "ignored" money always
Somehow I got food, clothing, travel
Has Jesus picked up my slack?
