Cherry

Elusive cherries

Elusive cherries

A family together

Finally, the family together, five months since the start. T’was difficult to imagine and Too many ticks on the chart. But we’re finally together It’s us and the boys.

A year on

One year on, And life for my son, tired and shattered Drags on, relentless, pointless. So eager is he to relive And yet feels so aimless Our goal is hope, that we can all cope

Back to work

Arg!

Brief success

A score of poems is my main feat. A score of verses, is so, so sweet

Bus from Hell

Stifling heat, Lack of air, Passengers pushing, Mighty scare. Bus rolls on, Nasty stares, Elbows nudge, Tempers flare. I must get off, This is hell, Bus is slowing, I ring the bell.

Child's love

Nothing beats the pleasure and the joy that we feel daily, and constantly for our children. Nothing can surpass the pride that fills us with everything they do. Their look in their

Children and toys

Toys, do they help to pass the time away? Or do you get annoyed when kids get their way? The blaring horns. The clash of cymbals. The mass of toy soldiers. The cries and giggles.

Control anger

“Why am I such a fool?” I tell myself time and again. Keep quiet and stay cool Don’t jump, just suffer the pain! I can’t control my fury, When they assault my peace.

Just a game?

Its just a game they tell me,

Suffering son

His way

Lego

An endless night, Boredom sets in. No book to read, there is a need. The lego sits there, Boxed and taped. Child’s eyes expectant, Hoping and patient. A rush of blood,

World Cup fever

World cup fever, all over the place. Cars garnished, Painted face. Why do we bother? Why do we fret? The ball will be kicked, Into each others net. We’ll all despair,

Sun's role

Dawn arrives. The sun breaks through, the chill warms up leaving morning dew. It invigorates my heart, To see it climb, Up the cloudless sky In endless time. It warms our hearts.

In a moment

Just when I thought that life had been kind. A crushing blow and all is left behind It’s strange to think that smugness is cruel. The comforts all gone and made to look a fool.

Unfinished

When will it end?

World cup is over

The game is over,

Weather break

Dawn arrives, sun breaks through, cloudless sky, stuff to do. Wake up kids, Must have fun, Quickly, prepare the breakfast, Enjoy the sun. English weather, Turns cloudy and variable,

What can I do?

When despair sets in, his world grinds to a halt. How can I lift him? When life looks so grim, what can I say? Simply, to gladden his day. Words fail me. There is, in me, no spark.

Wrong train

Always rushing.

My child's despair

The loneliness, heavy despair The sorrow, It’s so difficult to cope. The gloom, the misery, melancholy, the signs of a dashed hope. Doctors have come And others gone.

Plight of women

Why can’t we often shout enough is enough? When it seems so irrational to say yes. But when the truth is hidden, one must surely be ready to express. My concerns are simple and

Where are you God?

Troubled soul

troubled soul

My life is a Star

Life is difficult, when the going gets tough. Since nobody prepares you when the smooth turns rough. How we survive? Is anybody’s guess. The will to continue and the strength we possess.

My Story

See, you can guess and speculate, but it’s always left for me to articulate. My story, my journey – one of a kind, not just an illusion of a very creative mind.
