Dawn

I was up my bed
A pillow holding my head
I sat bolt upright
And saw something bright

It was only the sunbeams
Coming through the windows in streams
Cool breeze swept by
Feeling fresh I said, 'Oh my!'

Poppies and daffodils danced
I tossed my head and glanced
To see the beauty of the day
Full of flowers which were gay

It was a quiet moment
Filled with nature's own amusement
But it didn't last long
For the noises came along

Superior Snobs

Hey guys, I've never seen any
With tricks so silly but not funny
Like you, giggling buddies.
You put an act of goodies
But I guess that airs are phony.

Trees' Warning

Glory days have passed on
We enjoyed every second then
For we were as free as could be

We live for you, not for us
We spend our time producing 
Crucial stuff you need
To lead a heavenly life

But you are plotting our downfall
Which will be causing your downfall

If you are hoping to destroy us
We'd like to set forth a warning 
That you will be facing
A disease called global warming

Respect us, admire us and protect us
’Cause our downfall is your downfall.

Covid-19

Into my world entered COVID-19
Which dared to damage my daily routine

Wearing masks and washing hands
I went down the lanes 
To be pointed out
That I cannot go out

I could do nothing but pray,
"Oh God, isn't there a way?
A way to slay down COVID-19
Which dared to damage my daily routine."

Graveyard Flowers - Children of Gaza

Graveyard flowers they've become
Their garden; now a graveyard
Their roots almost out
Their small petals ruined
Their nectar still sweet
Their smell bitter sweet;
A mixture of anguish, 
courage and hope
Their leaves; carelessly 
trodden upon
Yet still - they bloom and blossom
Still beautiful they remain
Graveyard flowers though they are

Make sure it was not in vain

Pain
Tears
Hope
And desperation

An emotional piece of rag
That's what I've become

Tears splash down on my books
I smear my neatly written 
physics notes

Down on my table
I put my head slowly

I hear those little voices
"You can do better" they say
"But how do I get 
myself out of this mess?" I ask

The voices don't answer back

Screaming inside
I let out a meek little sigh

Again, 
trying to swim against
the rough sea of agony,
my voice seething in anger,
I call,
"Care to answer back?"

Then oh,
I see my carefree, 
careless self 
look at me in wonder.

She calls out teasingly
"Is this really you? 
My girl's become serious" 

Breaking the restraint, 
my lips twitch
revealing that little smile
dancing on my lips.

You see,
I do love this life of mine;
a bittersweet delight

Dreams, 
little rays of hope,
tear strained pages 
of those
tiresome physics problems
call me
to make sure
all of it
was not in vain
