Dream like a Tourist

9 Comments

I went high up in the sky,

Looked down, saw the hills waving at me,

cloud sailing in front of my face,

Stars shining, moon glowing so bright.

 

Jungle trek I went; smiling at trees,

Animals mating and feeding, nature is wonderful,

Huge, gigantic  dinosaur running around carefree,

Birds chirping and looking radiant.

 

I sailed across the large mass of water

My shadow calling forth from the deep sea

Music flowing into my ears in romantic rhythm,

Sea animals asking me to join in the water splash game.

I travelled in my dream as a tourist by land, air and sea.

Water of Life

4 Comments

A tiny little drop of you,

The water of life,

Fill my belly with wantonness,

To quench my thirst,

Wilt, be far from me.

 

I am, but nothing more than a seeker.

I long to rise.

Spring of life,

Flow into me, bring me out to thrive,

Let me flourish, unending quest to survive in the desert,

Where one out of thousands no not his fate.

Produce tiny seeds that will become me once again.

 

I will blossom in beautiful colors of petals,

I will flourish in all seasons,

I will heal the sick,

My thick back a shelter,

All this I will do with my green self.

Make me the giver of all.

Why Deprive Me

4 Comments

Gorgeous, dazzling beauty of mine,

Causing unsettlements in my brain.

Sweet taste of you on my tongue.

Revealing sensational rippling effects flowing through my body,

 

My Maraschino cherry.

The sweet savour taste of you tickles down my oesophagus,

Giving rise to goosebumps on my skin.

Being the best thing that happened to me,

I know not what to do.

 

They deprive me of you,

They said I have too much of you in my system,

They said you will wreck my life

How on earth am I going to live without you

I have to stay away from you to be alive again.

How will I ever resist Ice cream in my life?

Creamy, milky Ice cream.

Empty Heart of A Woman

11 Comments

Bewitched by you first time I set my eyes on your glamorous silky skin,

You belong to me now and no other,

You are my other half, my courage, my strength,

Beautiful you are, enchanting to the eyes, sleek black fur.

Always around my bosom in fulfillment,

With my eyes held up high in pride,

A day without you out there is a miserable one.

Everything I’ve always wanted at all time, I found in you.

You give me courage, protection, my best friend,

That’s who you are.

Never a dull moment with you, my heart.

 

And then suddenly you are gone,

Gone with the wind.

Vanished with all that makes me,

They took you away from me, now I’m empty, confused,

What have they done to me?

Where do I go, how do I find you?

The world is wicked, where is the courtesy?

But you are so harmless, a joy to me.

I feel so sick now, lost in the world without you.

 

The truth is a woman’s handbag is her best friend, women feel empty without this, rarely would you find a woman stepping out of her house without it. Her handbag is the power house- eddaz

My True Companion

3 Comments

In the journey of life, I met you,

Never searched your soul,

I looked into your eyes, what I saw was beautiful,

All I knew was that you were my companion.

I embraced you, loved you, and learn’t from you,

You thought me, accepted me, and shared with me.

Knowing fully well that someday we will get to the destination,

When we get to the end of the journey,

I will breath a sigh of satisfaction;

Knowing fully well that we shall meet again in another world.

It came to me that every time I loose a dog, they take a piece of my heart with them. And every new dog who comes into my life gifts me with a piece of their heart, If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are- Unknown
