THE YELLOW HAWKWEED

They sing their own songs
In the spirit of light.
No, they do not take credit for that.
Nor, do they drain under dust and disdain
That suffers hollow minds.

They compose their verses in the wind
And revel at their spirits’ charm, or so as it seems.
They inspire dance in a dragonfly,
Touch in a bee, or a butterfly.
And quiver not at the bleat of a goat.

They do not complain, nor do they seek---
Attention, that spoil ribbons of love. 
They bury moments in pure delight,
Unlike men that lose sight of purpose.
And coil under their own vulnerabilities.

They do not fantasize their own glory
Nor live a lie that do not define them.
They swell in pride with pure submission,
That, for man, would take years to fathom
As deliberate apprehensions rip off their minds.

They sing their verse, unheard, unsung
Revel, in the breast of Mother Earth.
They feel Her beat, Her heat, and in sweet surrender
Submit to the gallows of Time.

Though hated,  sometimes scorned, undervalued 
for their power to produce and reproduce.
For encroaching unknown territories,
Yet they don't complain, for they know
Love is for all and they are no exception.

Antidote To Alzheimer

Hobby
is latent gene
Few explore
Many ignore 

Hobby
not pastime leisure
it's undervalued
battery recharger

Hobby
of painting
I rekindled 
in COVID 

Painted 385 artwork
during lockdown
while world was 
grumpy of isolation

Painted from
Two hospital wards
Leaving Doctors amused
Never finding me scared 

Hobby
Identify, Cultivate 
When busy to core
Handy when you retire 

Hobby 
Remember 
best antidote 
to Alzheimer

Cared out, by the system 
Clockless but stand proud.

Cherish the time with your parents
Our time will come just like theirs.
Keep holding on to those memories
Envisaging that good memories 
  will not cease forever

If you missed the precious years and feel lost
Step forward and love the most

In life, children are never undervalued
Trust yourself, you are of great value!

The whispers of thoughts lay temporal often lay in one’s unconsciousness something that was left unsaid. Is it that one rather not reveal one’s true ulterior motives because fear of the outcome? Or is it by choice to wield one’s genuine self expression and avoid speaking freely and be misinterpreted of one’s freedom of one’s expression? How would one absorb one’s point of view and decipher one’s true intentions and one feeling undervalued or ashamed? Still something was left unsaid.
Mysteries and fortunes continues to reveal of good or ill fortunes bestowed upon of one beings. Should it be left unsaid which directions to take the mysteries lingers on like the sands in the hour glass if  something left was unsaid.

Playful pony promenade
Quietly quizzing querulous quail
Respite regulated regimented rabbits
Studiously steering sterling striped starlings
Tricking trinkets, trunks and tributaries
Undervalued, underdeveloped, and underdone

Premium MemberCherish For Life

Cherish all your blessed and painful memories.

Hours of the day can never return; treasure them.

Every cherish begins in the heart, not the head.

Relationships with loved ones, to build intimacy

I cherish today and dream of tomorrow.

Sunrises for me; everything is alive and animated.

Honor All that seems to talk around my heart.


Feelings always in check and never undervalued.

Over time, people will never forget what you said.

Reach out positive vibes to your entourage.


Life only comes around once, so cherish it.

I had a companion when I needed it the most.

Force and wealth are closely associated.

Expect that one of these paths will be coming.

For What the Wordly Hate

For what the wordly hate
The spiritual would wait
Sexual intercourse after marriage
A fanatical pursuit of Mary's image
At what The Wordly jeer
The spiritual would cheer
The gravelly carriage
Of The Domiciled in village
What the former often waste
The latter oftener preserve with haste
The grossly undervalued chaste
Sometimes ,a soon-to-be-spat-out toothpaste
The Wordly eulogizes not Honesty
Why mess around at all with a coward's modesty?
The untouchable theories about Fate
Religious men's most enduring bait.

The Teachers Dedication

The Teachers Dedication is intended to send cheer and appreciation to you and all the teachers around the world. Share it with someone special..!!

Do you know the importance of teachers
That question is a lesson in itself
How do you learn to achieve wealth
Receive a doctorates or even a black belt

There’s a great teacher around
Great with a ball or maybe a wrench
There’s a great teacher around
Preparing great meals or building a fence

Like super heroes from distant planets 
That come and save the day
Our heroes from the world of academia 
Come and lead the way

Just for what you stand for alone
You should be forever bestowed in favor
Facing the most daunting task of taming & guiding the beast called human nature 

Ode to those undervalued teachers 
Who make education allure & dapple
You are revered by me and many others
With much love and many apples

Blades

Is there something about grass 
Close-clipped
On lawns and playing fields
That’s blithely overlooked?

Its qualities seem simply put:
Offsetting herbaceous borders 
And yielding underfoot.

Or is every blade like everyone 
Quite different from up-close
Unique and undervalued 
Unsung and lachrymose?

V - Verbose

Vivid visuals and verbalization veers to my vibrant vocalization 
This variorum
A voice vernacularly vast and vigil with a voluble velocity
Vitalizing the vows in my views
From venting to vomiting
Verses against the vain become volumes about viral variform’s and our voluntary vices
Both viable and venial
Vigorous with a vengeance towards the virus of the modern vision, turning a visionary into a vacant stare
Victims of virtual vendettas, purposeless variables to create a vortex where the vantaged remain victor
The virtuous and valiant stay violated and undervalued while what's vital is just venom in disguise
No vaccine
No volition among the various
The virulent will not vanish at this vertex so we must validate where vertical really leads
I must be vocal on this voyage, vigilant with this vessel and my verbiage approach
Vindictive towards the vile and yet vivacious with every step towards the verge of vacuity

The Soil

The soil is undervalued and treated as unclean,
      even though it is the terrestrial realm.
           The best medium of alteration,
               wherein wastes get rotten,
                    and surely enhance
                          production.
                        All the plants
           animals and other organisms,
       get autonomy, shelter and nutrition.
   Usages and objects of soil are  umpteen,
The soil is undervalued and treated as unclean.

Angels Without Wings

Whenever you feel undervalued,
Taken for granted,
All effort rewarded with abuse.
Whenever you’re tired
To the point of desperation that you
Find yourself asking,what’s the use?
Whenever you feel unappreciated
That you wonder if maybe
There’s something better you can do,
Please remember the world
Is short of compassion.
That’s why it needs people like you...
You are so vital
To another’s wellbeing
Because of the active role you play.
Yours is the first face that is
Seen every morning that can
Either lighten or darken the day.
Though doctors treat 
Frailties of the body
You too play a healing part,
You can help ease another’s suffering
With a smile,a touch
Or dedicated act from the heart.
For you take the place
Of family and loved ones.
Although a stranger,you become a friend,
A shining example of sublime
Humanity as you care
While you serve,when you tend.
So please never
Underestimate your purpose
Or demean your personal worth.....
For while God created the heavenly
Guardians,nurses are aptly
Named as our angels on earth.




I dedicate this to our wonderful nurses everywhere.
