Today, I walked barefoot in my yard and realised how privileged I am to have a small lawn in it, a house and rooms to practise isolation and social distancing, food to last at least a month, enough cash- in case we’d like to have supplies delivered.
The pandemic hasn’t been the same for us all. Please be aware of the situation around you. Some need food or health care. Let us think about the animals who depend on us. Let us use our connections, our knowledge ,the social media or at least contact our own circle to help those around us.
The lockdown could be worse for over thinkers, people strug ..read more

A
Prism
Of sadness
A piece of soul
Falls from the eyelids
That place where you stand
Trickling droplets of emotions
Too hard to handle; finally let go
Relieving the strain of that pain
It falls from your eyes like rain
Until you are totally drained
So you can rise up again
To play the game ..read more

I remember the vivid days as a child,
When I wanted to be just like you
But they lied when they smiled,
Telling me dreams always come true
So I chose to make it loud and clear,
I have to become better than you
Without knowing which road to steer,
I‘ll fight through whatever it takes to be better than you.
Those who write their own story can rhyme;
Following the original was never tough to do;
While soon enough, we all become mimes.
I will be my own inspiration and won’t relive you;
I‘ll become who I want to be in my own way,
And I’ll someday be better than you.

Wipe someone’s teary eyes;
Life’s too short to merely cry.
Reserve a genuine smile for those
Who can’t see past their stubby nose.
Call up a friend who’s very ill;
You never know how they might feel.
Acknowledge someone’s panicked look
Or maybe pick up their scattered books.
Say “thank you” to workers behind the scene;
Without them life would be so mean.
There is no need for black and white;
Add vibrant colour to the dim light!
Shake hands with dignity and pride.
Don’t be afraid, there’s nothing to hide!
Go against the worldly flow,
Be yourself and just say “No!”
Tiny pebbles create everlastin ..read more

Over the mountains,
Through the forests,
Throughout life’s journey we go;
Currents may tug,
Winds may gust,
But joy will always show.
Tears will fall,
While bonds will break,
But we should always know;
Past the ice,
And beyond the blizzard,
Will forever lay sweet snow.
Beyond the maelstroms,
And the cloudy skies,
The sun will always glow;
Life will try to knock us down,
But we shall always hold,
Ups and downs will come about,
And make us all feel quite low,
But we will rise,
And fortify,
For this life is ours to own…

I know that smile,
The one I’ve seen so many times before
Wondering if this world is worthwhile,
Which says you can’t do this anymore.
That ever thinning crimson veil,
Between you and reality;
Hiding your gruesome tale,
With a false sense of normality.
The one that conceals the hurt,
That piercing pain of trampled dreams,
Suppressed, broken and left in the dirt,
As your ambition begins to tear at the seams.
I know that smile,
That smile, I’ve worn so many times before…

He has a way of staring;
It drives me crazy to see.
I want to turn and say to him:
“Quit gazing holes through me!”
Unflinching and undaunted,
He keeps the will to fight.
I want to glare, but then, the air
Grows uptight from the blight.
There’s something in his eyesight,
That is forceful all its own;
I look away but cannot allay,
The sense I’m not alone.
I don’t know what to tell him
What could I think to say?
Since what he sees is what it actually is
My fear’s an ambuscade.
He got that way of staring…
It makes me want to scream:
“Now get along! You’re just a ..read more

I watched as you went carrying that sack
And wondered to myself if you’ll ever come back;
But I said not a word, slipping out of hold
Running towards you,taking a chance to be bold;
Only when I reached a fence did I fully understand
That even though I’d reached, you’d never take my hand;
I stood for a moment, watching that plane go
Just hoping it’d stop or pause for a second or so;
But neither came and time flew by
Leaving me here with my whispered goodbyes…

Do you know the difference?
Between the heart and the brain?
Both make foolish decisions,
& both are hard to explain
Your brain is your intelligence
It’s the reason you are smart
But anyone can be stupid
When it comes to the heart
Your heart is very fearless
But your brain, obviously, is not
Your brain thinks things through
Your heart gives it all you’ve got
Your brain will say stop it
But your heart will say No
Your brain will stop loving him
Your heart won’t let him go
Your brain does not forgive
But your heart, of course, will
The brain lacks the emotions
That your heart can’t help bu ..read more
