Predator In Me

Predator In Me

Lurking in the shadows
Somewhere, hiding in the dark,
I move with such deadly grace
Eyes filled with a glowing spark.
Muscles ripple beneath my coat
Strength to be matched, I know,
Agility and speed as I run
Threaten me, my teeth I’ll show.
Ferocious growl in my throat
A warning, you better take heed,
For I am a great predator
On you, I’ll certainly feed.
So if you are in my territory 
You should always watch for me,
As I may not be on the ground
But lurking high up in a tree.

Love of Art

Love of Art

You pick up your pencil
Start off with a dot.
Who knows where you'll go
From that small little spot.

Maybe a tall mountain?
Or a tiny fish in the sea?
A scenery of beauty ?
Or a funny looking tree?

Perhaps a little doodle
That makes no sense at all?
What about a great big ship
Shooting a cannonball?

There are no rights and wrongs
When it comes to the love of art.
Let it come through your emotions
Let it come straight from your heart.

You Are My Light

You are my light

Without you there is only darkness
You are the light in my life.

Without you there is only sadness
Your light fills my heart with delight.

Without you there is only emptyness
Please, won't you be my light?

Oh Moon

OH Moon

Oh moon,can you sing a song?
Your beauty for all to see
You brighten up the sky
As you smile down on me.

Our creator made you perfect
You change as the days go by
One day,bright as the sun
Then disappear as if you're shy.

When there's only darkness
You give us travelers light
To see you smiling down on us
Brings us happiness and delight.

If you could sing a happy tune
What would you sing for me?
Glorifying the great creator
Who had made you, for all to see.

Everytime that I look up 
I'll remember who put you there
Created with a purpose
Giving light to earth to share.

Where Are You

Where Are You?

Oh my little baby girl
Where did you go?
I cannot find you
I fear that you are lost.

I search and search 
Yet it seems you've disappeared 
My heart is broken 
Aching for you to be found. 

A shadow of your former self 
Is slowly taking you over 
Unrecognizable you've become 
Oh where are you my baby girl? 

Doing things you'd never do 
Acting like someone else 
I fear this shadow is swallowing you 
Run, please save yourself. 

I'll never stop looking for you 
As my love for you is never ending 
Just reach out and take my hand 
Don't be scared, you're not alone.

Love

Love

Loving you is like a song
The birds sing in spring,
A renewal that makes a bond
Feels like the strongest thing.
Something that can never break
A tie that’s meant forever,
We’ll always belong one and the same
In this life and hereafter.
You’re stuck with me no matter what
Through the bad times and the good,
We’re a team, a pair, a partner in crime
Watching each others backs, like we should.
Trusting the choices that you make
I’ll be by your side through it all.
No matter where time takes us
We’ll catch each other if we fall.
To have a love that’s everlasting
Feels like unshakable bliss,
Every time we feel weak and down
Only to be brought up by a single kiss.
I love that you love me
The way that I love you,
I couldn’t have asked for a better half
This much I know is true.
So every time I hear the birds
Singing our song in spring,
I’ll remember to kiss and say ”I love you”
Love, what beautiful thing.

Billie

It's like you know when I'm down
Always laying by my head
Whenever I feel alone
You cuddly with me in bed.
You never expect anything
Just a simple pet
Yet you can be stubborn
When your mind is set.
Since you were a baby
Always in my arms
With your big eyes staring
Suckering me with your charms.
You follow me everywhere
I'll always know where you're at
You're like a precious baby
Billie, you're a wonderful cat.

Nature's Beauty

Nature’s Beauty
As the spring slumbers on
Underneath the winter snow,
All is cold and seems as dead
Around us, the strong winds blow.
Though the months pass quickly 
The coldness melts away,
Weather’s getting better
Wind, from strong blow to a sway.
Everything’s awakening
From that long dark sleep,
Like a season being reborn
It’s beauty is what we seek.
Slowly buds are blossoming
The grass begins to grow,
Pushing all the frosh aside
Underneath the winter snow.
Spring is here, the birds sing
Wake up, come out and fly,
The sun is out, the rain has come
Winter has passed us by.
The seasons continue to come and go
Never staying the same,
One thing  that is forever true
Nature’s beauty will always remain.

Straight Path

Straight Path
We all start off somewhere
On a path, maybe not so good,
Sometimes we don’t understand
Or see life in ways we should.
This life is full of hardships
Temptation is all around,
A lost feeling overcomes you
Only yearning to be found.
Searching for something up and down
Forgetting to look inside,
You realize that you’ve been wrong
You turn to Allah and cry.
See, some of us are lucky
We’re put on a path that’s straight,
We try so hard to please Allah
Our only savior, who’s so great.
We have a certain way of life
Which is better than the rest,
We strive to achieve a wonderful goal
Paradise- Life which comes next.



To prove our worth in faith
We are given so many trials,
I think the one who is the best
Is he who thanks Allah and smiles.
This life is nothing but a test
A short visit, a temporary stay,
Enjoining good, forbidding bad
Thanking Allah for everyday.
Each day, a chance to earn good deeds
Erasing the wrongs of our past,
Preparing for something better
The next life which will forever last.
I’m still thanking Allah each moment
For helping me find my way,
For leading me on a path that’s right
From the one that was so astray.
Everyday more grateful
That the one that past before,
Heading to an amazing place
Excited to see what’s in store.
So try your best to obey Allah
In the hereafter you will see,
The gardens of paradise is ever lasting
Allah willing, that’s where I’ll be.

My Mountain

Oh,when I look at you great one
I get shivers down my spine,
Your represent such a hold on life
How I ache to begin that climb.
Each step is for a year of life
Getting stronger every day,
Pushing throught the obstacles
Not allowing anything in the way.
Getting closer to the top
What a great and wonderous feat,
Feeling young and so alive
A joyous feeling that can't be beat.
All these thoughts are flowing
As I look at you great one,
Going to prepare for my journey now
Climbing you will be such fun.
