The Last Sound

Softer whose once far-blown murmur
Or whose half buried rumour
A sighing angel, he'll make it.
As pained. At Time's final hour.

Rumour Has It

Social Studies teacher Miss Dicking
Is anyone's girl for the picking
Her nose in the air
Proves she does not care
As long as she gets a good licking

Rumour

An email just received is a sham,
stating swine flu comes from tins of ham,
but don’t get a fright,
for this is not right,
when the email claims ham, well it’s spam.

Rain-Birthed Miracles

Its o'er the hill rumour
A dazzling fact! 
Spread out that clear before us.
Nothing abstract!

Each droplet's transmuting;
Soft-hued, soft-formed
For bluebell and buttercup.
By bee informed.

That I Was Ever Born

To so distance myself
From its loud rumour
Whiney, needy, the earth o'er
Attending each care
Unless that soul, at peace
Its own skies re-mount
Summer-time's "off into the blue"
Escapes go nowhere.
Form: Rhyme

News We'll Never Meet Again - parted at death

May it never reach me
Nor as rumour.
Anything - end of time;
Of this world-age
Man's last death-rage-
But not what darker still
And forever
As would make Heaven, Hell:
Our love, soul-bound
Has been unwound.

Sponsorship

Sponsorship



People complain about constant sponsorship,

But continue to be a consumer.

People only tell the truth if it’s beneficial,

Or maybe that’s just a vicious rumour.

Whispering

I hear the leaves whisper
on a breath of  breeze.

August-sun glows like 
honey on toast.	

What are the sweet words of the leaves?
What do the trees gossip and sing?

Last night they were still.
Now, a rumour is murmuring...Spring.
Form: Rhyme

no time for dreams

people have stopped laughing
and this is no rumour, 
children is Somalia sufferes from scurvy

what a sad scene

has anyone seen 
these countless
deaths of dreams,
dead consciences
of politicians

this dying Afrika

its dead hope.

no time for dreams

its dead hope.

After the Election

Fallen from your throne
The other one wearing the crown
Filled in tears and in silence
No public running wild anymore
All of the rumour fading out
Glad that I am an European with less money
Cause i did find out what being classy is all about

Rumour

A rumour is going around that a rumour is going around.
I looked for the rumour but none could be found.
All because the rumour was not based on solid grounds.
I know what you think but that is not profound.
The rumour's rumour vanished without a sound.

Helpless Love

My soul is caught up in a bind
They say love is but blind
What kind of helpless love is this?
Which to rumour mills would add unpleasant grist.
Can you not simply see?
We are like two buds of the same tree.
You cannot deny, cannot reply
God now please where can I fly?

Lunatic and humour






Crazy as a Lunatic we went,
Woke up with a tiger in our tent,
True came the rumour,
Doomed to lose Humour,
Adventure was the only intent !

Rumour Has It

Rumour Has It

Rumour has it he came from the country.
I do not know his name, 
But I do know his face.
I moved to the town so that I did not have to see his face.
Rumour has it he has a secret.
Now I watch him from behind the safety of my curtain.
Rumour has it.
And I know what it is.

Society's tumour


Voracity not veracity mendacity groomer

Capacity for pugnacity is not a rumour

Rapacity of the seedy needy consumer

Sagacity no audacity of the baby boomer

Morality calamity stalks like a greedy puma

Tenacity but with no candour or humour

Opacity because their salacity is a tumour

Holy Order

HOLY ORDER

Where is thy sanctity and mystery?
Where is the vow of celibacy?

I’m i asking too much of this odour
Or is it a fallacy or a rumour

Scandal all around you and no remorse
Do i read it to be greed-what should i endorse

Why should priest crave for asset and wealth?
There still a lot not known in the depth
