2024 Multitudes of roadblocks confronts me inside
Unapologetically. 2024
The limits of cracked foundations of systematic,
Complexed people seem to conspire together beyond
One's control. 2024
Why smudge one's personality for whatever unknown
Reasons?
Undecisive which pill to swallow? Should one move to
The left? The right? or in-between. 2024
Spiritual warfare? Sometimes favorable at times
Dreadful encounters now and then scanty control
Purposes to withstand life's storms? 2024
Where's the Love? Has it gone extinct? Concealed
excuses. Trickiness seems like the new truth. 2024
Peace should be embraced wholeheartedly and incorporated. 2024
Veneration faces the four corners of the winds. Pray
Unceasingly, on all occasions, acts of gracefulness. 2024
We learn to take our medicine
No matter what the taste
And follow doctor's orders,
Though uncomfortable, post haste.
Yet children have to be convinced,
For if the flavor's vile,
They'll try their best to fight it
Using obstinance and guile.
Perhaps a bit of bribery
Or trickiness might work,
For medical instructions
Aren't ones we ought to shirk.
So we must do what we must do
To get that dosage down,
Despite the knowledge we're the cause
Of grimace, grouse or frown.
When rain goes on,
My tears flow on,
Chirping of birds,
Crackling of Leaves,
Tip Tip of rainfall,
thundering of clouds,
Blossoming of flower,
Trickiness' of Dew,
They all are remembering you,
Flowing rivers,
Singing Birds,
Falling cascade,
Drowning stones,
Blizzard air,
They evokes my hidden thoughts,
They all are remembering you,
As the rain pours on,
My tears carry on! ! ! ! !
