Fall of Natural Beauty

Women’s wombs, I guess
have run short of materials
beautiful babies are not born
paintings, fittings are after birth
Inventors paint and finish
things pregnant mothers miss
beauty made by machines
and bought in supermarkets
repair shortfalls and damages
to create beautiful adult babies
so artificial and ordinary

Shortfalls on the Long-Haul

Listen to poem:
In long-haul dreams, we set our sights far-off on distant shores,
Assuming that each step, each choice, each twist, will open doors,
Will keep us heading steadfastly ahead, right on course!
Yet time reveals the dead-weight drag of our remorse.
Looking back on the shortfalls, on the litter of regrets stowed
As keepsakes to repay, all the time-wasters, for ransom owed.

Alone

You used to come and visit
You don't come by anymore
I waited many hours
Hoping you'd walk through the door

I miss our conversations
You're the one who knew me best
I shared all my happy thoughts
And my shortfalls I confessed

I know I'm far from perfect
Have I scared my friend away
Without you here beside me
I feel so lost everyday

I got tired of waiting
So I called you on the phone
You feared I was mad at you
As you sat home all alone

A Piece of Clay

Very adornment it is,refuse to go away.Appearing again,again in my memory lanes like vehicles.A piece of clay to rumble the ways all I wanted to make everything that for me in my school days.Now working for my livelihood coming many things within my reach for money still some shortfalls in life unlike my school days with clay.Amazing this world that I let on to live with money everything how nice those olden days that a piece of clay played?
