The Narrow Silver

As we watch the swaying palms We gently glide along the banks The children play along the river As we pass the narrow silver The shadows on the deep grey silver Makes my heart aglow and quiver Wondering if its secrets hold Mysteries yet to man untold A kingdom deep beneath the sand With a marching kingly band A mermaid waiting patiently For her princely charming he

Gods Own Joy

With straw hats covered they work in the sun Ready to cast their nets on the run And as it sinks down deep in the ocean Our heart beats faster with every motion And as it rises the nets full of glitter Drawing the crowds nearby with a flitter As our boat slips quietly away We are met by men with their ware Loads full of fish, prawns, crabs and cray We argue and we tussle And with a great deal of struggle We load our boat with a great deal of mussel We continue along our way All through Gods own land array Watching the waters and the sky Till we reached the land at nigh Hearts bursting and filled with pride To be a part of Gods own joy

City Lights

The city with its bright filled lights Has always given me the frights The hustle and bustle everywhere The noisy crowd without a care The taxi and the auto move Along the road in a snaky groove Id rather be 10000 miles From all these city lights… With the bustling and the noise Of this great busy city heights

Sail Away

I wish to sail away to some distant land So far away beyond time and sand Just me and the great blue sky Where the sea gulls fly oh so high The dolphins swimming by my side And the whales beat the gentle tide To feel the North wind on my brow To taste the drops of dewy snow To sail across the seven seas With no intention of touching shore

Raggedy Anne

My raggedy doll, she is so grand With her patchy dress and face of tan Her curly locks so dark and long Her eyes so big and wide a yawn I love my little raggedy doll And let her sleep by me till dawn. Shes my baby, shes my doll Shes my little Raggedy Anne.

A helping hand

The poor in India need a helping hand At times it seems they can hardly stand They need to be taught to read and write Armed with this they can begin their fight We should encourage and be encouraged to give our mite With this we can end their strife Calling all my brothers and sisters of this land Reach out and give a helping hand

Wishful Thinking

We the citizens need a helping hand Its the time for all to take a stand The Aam Aadhmi the cry of nation Who can listen to their situation? The leader promises a shining India How can She shine when all round is dull? Land scams, phone scams, Is all we hear When will this end is our foremost fear The people who need to take action Are busy forming coalition It is justice that we seek Or is it just wishful for the meek? We are a nation formed by men But fate has bound us to their plan Oh when from this curse shall we all be free? Time alone will tell we shall wait and see!
