The Blue Jays are favoured to clean up AMEN

It’s not all easy being favoured as a great gifted poet
All this deigning and stooping just to let people know it

But that’s not the worse of it and irritating much more
Is my fresh ironed toga keeps on snagging the door...

It’s not all easy being favoured the great gifted poet
All a deigning and stooping just to let people know it

But that’s not the worse of it and irritating much more

Khai Nai island off Phuket 
glistens with pristine sand
celebrating its uniqueness 
wherever the sea kisses land

bigger islands around envy
as to why it’s the favoured one
perhaps its purity makes waves
dance under the light of the sun...

Are we anxious as the dice rolls
Hoping we are the favoured one
Or do we step back, smile awhile
Nonchalant whilst having some fun

Detached from outcomes, heart tranquil
Our void like presence, a bliss mist
We leave behind no residue
For we carry no to do list...

I'm 
a
feather
so fragile 
floating freely down 
through those faraway fir trees. Then,
my soft frame crashes to the ground, crushing all my dreams.
You pick the forsaken me. Your dreams flow through me - your favoured quill. I've found my purpose.

He was born young, I mean really young
His hair was curly, fluffy and beige
His skin, for milk and fire a bridge
His eyes, orbs of fiery passion 
Favoured was he by Aphrodite and Adonis
He is he that is moulded by time and endless time of daydream.

Not everything that look negative is demonic

You favoured me 
Oh God 

And showed me how to 
Walk through my pains

You hold my ego 
When my confidence
Fail 

I can't be more worst 
Than I am 

Cos am highly favoured
By the most high 

That why my pains 
Are obvious...

Good morning Lord, it’s time to say hi
Your grace is always on a standby
to make me favoured just as the Jew.
Bless my sight with a wonderful view
so that victory will attach like a sew.
Remove the thoughts of me, myself and I
for my purpose in Life to never ever sigh....

Ruffles the feathers
holds the scruff of the neck
resembles the raven
disguise imperfect
subjects favoured
unwisely project 
suspect flavour
returns the reject
correct behaviour 
or disrespect
what flies lands 
what lives dies
play your hand
calm and nice
avoid the stand
Do not go twice...

Overnight rain hangs wetlights on the twigs of the autumnal hedges, 

as the light blue sky is ploughed by diagonal yellow furrows to remind 

farmers to finish their ploughing in this 'Yellow Belly' county, the most  

               the most farm favoured in all England.  

the blue sky ploughed by diagonal...

It’s not all easy being favoured as a great gifted poet
All this deigning and stooping just to let people know it

They do deign but I just do so to see them pass 
Tomorrow perhaps worse they want to kiss my arse

But that’s not the worse of it and irritating much more
Is my fresh ironed toga keeps ruddy snagging the door...

'' My Savior "
I am complacent!
God is with me, at all times.
I am blessed!
Highly favoured,
Forever graced.

Who am I in this life that you constantly,
Look after me, walk with me, busk in my shadow, I am forever in awe...? 

I owe it all to him, 
I give him all  the glory! He makes me shine in darkness. 
He is my Savior!...

Dreamed a dream,upsetting  his close kin,
The arrogance of youth,not the greatest sin;
Banished to a land,many miles south
Favoured by the Lord, with interpretations in his mouth;
A career like ,a roller coaster ride,
Oft-times than not,upon the winning side;
Joseph,older now,and full of wise counsel,
His early dream evolving exactly as he did forthtell....
