Cherry Blossoms

Like a robin, beyond the horizon you flew,
Leaving me lonesome in the state of blue.
Now how would I find you, where would I go?
Sans you the glory of my heart is getting low.

Your loving memories will always make me weep;
Have you forgotten the promise I had told you to keep.
The promise to glance as one beyond the stars;
To make a new land free from all cruelty and wars.

You’re my true love, not a dull game.
Don't you know that you’re my only flame, 
Who had showed me the way towards the fairy land.
Darling, I just want to hold again your hand.

I can't forget those moments spent under the silvery moon.
Darling, I'm waiting for you, please come back soon.
I believe we’ll watch the cherry blossoms fall again;
We’ll again run up to the hill, to our secret domain.

The Forest

On the far-off isle --

The forest was beautiful and rich in nature;
With the songs of the birds and 
with the living of other animals in it.

Everything was balanced;
Until the wicked eyes of the humans got on it.

The Hunt

Our love was reaching at new heights 
but unexpectedly she disappeared; 
leaving my heart solitary. 
I rambled for her with wet eyes.

Melancholy seized my soul.
Thousand times I dried my tongue 
calling her name in the wilderness.
But it turned out to be a waste of time.

Then one night, I saw her in the woods
and a chill ran down my spine;
She was half human and half zombie;
Grabbing an human arm with her teeth.

I knew she would invade the hamlet
as she was not in her own control.
Slyly I took out my  gun
and ceased my beloved wife's heart forever.

Eventually, I understood why she left me;
because she loved me and didn't want to harm me.
I hugged her strongly and sobbed for hours,
"I'm sorry, forgive me."

Jaws

Its huge jaws can break any cage,
The dark deep blue world is its maze.
Drops of blood make it insane;
It can chase you like a train.
It's megalodon - don't get engage.
______________________________

Megalodon is an extinct species of shark.

Most current, scientifically accepted estimates for the Megalodon's maximum size fall into the 60-70 foot range, with a weight of 50-70 tons. Compare that to the largest living shark, the Great White that maxes out at about 21 feet and 3 1/2 tons.

My Restaurant

My restaurant is upon a knoll,
which was used to be an ancient castle.
Gleams intensely under the moon's light;
Coolness and placidity is its status.

Chinese lanterns glow all around,
Blossoms aroma bliss the whole interior. 
Customers enjoy foods on flute melodies
whilst feeling the gentle cold breeze. 

All staffs are very skilled and quick.
Gents are attired in mix-up of old and new fashioned; whereas
ladies are in makeover and outfit of leopardess and lioness, 
They treat and serves all with a smile.

Heavenly scenes out of the windows;
Northern colourful lights flash in the skies.
It's all just like a wonderful dream
that people see with open eyes.

Little Boy

The little boy took to his heels shaking his buttocks as he saw his strict teacher approaching his way; local lasses started to laugh aloud.

Warning

It seems like countless people are on fire in hell;
Their cries from heaven is shaking the world.
Burning like ball objects is being seen in the skies,
Earthquakes, famines and pestilences are giving
visions of the second coming of the Christ.
The almighty Lord is giving us the warning;
The hell's monsters are ready to act.

Lust, adultery, prostitution and selfish generation,
Gays and lesbians marriages is increasing.
Ten commandments of the Bible is evaporating.
The Lord is setting the stage for the end
Although he never wanted to do this.
Blessed are those who fear the Lord and believe in him,
for he may come soon to make his judgement.

Title - Ghost Girlfriend (Funny Poem)

On the walls, on the 
ceilings, on the trees, she can 
saunter anywhere.

Waiting For Decade

I'm a crying soul,
Who is waiting for decade, for you to return!
Don't know where have you gone?
I often cry for hours holding the railing of my balcony,
As I'm living only in your memories
With solitary arms and dry lips;
Sans your love.
I often bring bunch of roses for you,
But everytime it gets wilted.

Daily evening I sit at my balcony;
And watches the cataract, highlands and wood
While harking blended notes. (Birds - Song)
This wood always reminds me of yours.
As I saunter here, I sense your hand is holding my hand so often.
The soreness of exodus breaks me everyday,
Hankering for your hugs and your kisses.

All dreams and promises are vanishing,
I had never thought we would depart for so long.
These saline liquids are unstoppable,
Seems like soon my eyes would ran out of tears.
But I'll not relinquish,
Because you are the only one I love.

And I accept as true,
That one day you will definitely arrive;
Running all the way down the highlands and this wood
with the tears of joy to become my bride.

Query

Cracks teacher's query.
Blue eyed girl smiles at me; bliss 
bells ring in my heart.
