It’s your birthday Dad

But I am feeling sad

Because you are not here

For whom I party and cheer

You love your chocolate cake

As well as some chips with steak

Always looking forward to your gifts

Your lovely smile automatically lifts

Today just feels so empty

I was looking forward to plenty

I am aching from the inside

This feeling, I can just not hide

Just one of those days

That feels like a maze

Looking for what to do

Don’t have a damn clue

Ticked off the long checklist

Though social life is dearly missed

The clock is moving fast

Similar to battles of wave and blast

The lockdown is in progress

Oh what a punitive distress

Favourite places are all closed

Hospitality industry seems fully deposed

The sound of rain

Similar to pouring grain

Streaming on the window

What a beautiful glow

Get on those boots

No need for trendy suits

Jump in the muddy puddle

Forgetting the pain and struggle

Rain drizzling on my face

Not moving from this place

Such a beautiful feeling

This weather is so appealing

Wind pushing the rain away

Come again another da...

The holidays are finally here

Dance to the front, dance to the rear

Let the soul unwind and undo

Yet there is so much to get through

Countdown for Christmas has begun

But nothing much can be done

Back into lockdown, now tier four

No more guests knocking at the door

Last minute plans have to change

The whole process feels boring and strange

Lives must be save...

A cute and innocent child

So adorable and mild

Was beaten by her mother

Which she kept hidden

Under the duvet cover

For the littlest mistakes

Which all kids make

Would be like torture

Similar to a day of scorcher

What is the need?

For such an evil deed

Mothers are usually caring

Not harsh and blaring

Those slaps and pinches

Like wild cats counting inches

Hold your head high

Ability to reach the sky

No looking behind

Just a stress-free mind

Face the hurdles

Travelling in circles

Forget the fears

Wipe away those tears

Listen to yourself

Not someone else

It is your freedom and life

Ignoring each and every strife

Be the strong one

Unique like none

Make it work

Joys of affliction lurk

Let those grudges go

The world needs a glow

Life is too short

Let’s be each other’s support

No point being angry or sad

Let it go and be glad

So much to look forward to

Rather than sitting and feeling blue

Ups and downs are normal

Don’t be too formal

Close your eyes and lean back

No need to paint that heart black

Hold onto those that love you

The time is ticking

Quickly do the picking

So much on that list

Can shroud in the mist

Make use of the time

Go that extra mile and climb

No ending to definitive success

Just the green button to press

Hold on tight and firmly

And try not to worry

Learning new skills or hobbies

It will be part of many stories

Time will not reverse

Switch off your devices

And escape this crisis

Let your eyes close

As the imagination flows

In between a heavenly jungle

Where animals laugh and mumble

Joining them in their wildly dance

Observing the mountain from a glance

Swimming through the grimy mud

Similar to that of a crocodile’s blood

Smelling so natural and fresh

Watching fish caught in the mesh

Waking up before the dawn

Getting those trainers on

Making the move outside

Join in for an adventure and ride

Grass swaying side to side

The ducks have nowhere to hide

The fountain spraying water over a distance

What a beautiful view and existence

Buses and cars driving by

White clouds covering the gorgeous sky

A mixture of tunes in my ears

Helping the poor

Is on my list for sure

They are still one of us

Without money and shelter thus

My duty is to look after them

Being a beautiful gem

With a generous heart and soul

That has always been my goal

Giving some of my earning

Without betrayal or turning

Hoping to put a smile on their face

Showing them my love and grace

Probably not their fault

Cooking is an art

Comes from the heart

No right or wrong

Just be brave and strong

Get out those pots and pans

Taking care of the diners’ lifestyle

Flavours to enhance taste buds

Similar to the ocean floods

Though these can be varied

The ingredients all get married

Writing from my heart

Been like this from the start

No fancy words or phrases

So fans don’t fall into mazes

Love to make poems rhyme

Expressions and thoughts that sublime

Usually quite concise and punchy

Reaching different people in every country

Some poems are funny, some intense

Fans realise and start making sense

All coming straight from the soul

Here comes that time of season

That always has a valid reason

Wrapping up in the cosy duvet

Similar to robbing the Goulet

Wearing those thick and warm socks

That feels like it is stuffed with rocks

Turning the heating on day and night

And watching the striking darkness, no light

Having warm drinks and soup

To avoid nasty aches and croup

Popping on the jacket...

I want to party all night

Keep the stress out of sight

Not get into an awful fight

Just make the gloomy times bright

Lockdown is really killing it

No friends around, just sit sit sit

Really hope we get out of this pit

So once again lives can be lit

Missing the awesome old days

Feels like being hit with a blaze

No party means extreme boredom

Let me make you feel better

Your size does not matter

Every inch of you is beautiful

No chance of being irrefutable

Don’t hide your real beauty

Display those gorgeous calves

No need to feel insecure

If you do, I have the cure

Get those lovely hips moving

Your size will not stop you from roving

I never loved you

Being honest and true

I was forcedly tied

So I had to abide

You were not my sort

So I took you to court

Your true colours came out

Without me having to shout

Though we felt rumpy-pumpy once

I utterly found you to be a dunce

For which I paid the price for

Thanks to my mother for sure

Being single is my game

It gives me so much fame

No arguments or blames

Or calling out dirty names

I am a good flirt

That is truly overt

Wearing a beautiful skirt

With my stunning red shirt

Not tied up with anyone

Enjoying life and having fun

Not thinking about what is done

Feels like I am sweet sixteen

Trust is very hard to obtain

Once broken, it can cause pain

Similar to shards of glass

Totally difficult to walk pass

Times are changing so fast

People are not like how they were in the past

As some may have two sides

Of which one the mirror hides

The current timings make it hard to trust

Feels likes the heart is bleeding in dust

People can change instantly

Let’s just live it up

Like an icy crystal cup

Whether sad or happy

Or just feeling snappy

Let’s move and shake

And wriggle like a snake

There is no right or wrong

Never weak, but always strong

Move to the rhythm

Blinded by the vision

Hear the sound and beat

Giving that ooze and heat

Shake off your body

Memories are to treasure

Bringing back blossom with pleasure

Regardless of the good or sad

Don’t want to tell anyone what it was about

No need to keep them stored in

All falling for my beauty

Because I am such a cutie

So elegant and naughty

Even when I turn forty

Doing the impish things

Using my gorgeous wings

Soaring fire that sings

Discarding vicissitudes that life brings

Turning the world from misery to glory

Disentangling the dim-remembered story

Do you understand my allegory?

Help you go that extra mile

It does not cost anything

Smiles are completely free

Don’t hide your beautiful smile

Beautiful colours of this world

That have gradually unfurled

So many opportunities arising

Fresh like the beautiful dawn

The worst tragedy that can be

Life feels empty without you

Similar to somebody that is scared to speak

It would feel like something is not right

Like silent public streets with the missing sun

Loneliness is a killer

That gives strength and funny quirks

Killing this loneliness in seconds

Once again we feel blue

Without having a clue

When life will go back to normal

Without getting too formal

The lockdown has begun

There is no place to run

I can only sense misery

We need to make the most of it

To ensure we don’t fully quit

Maybe learn a new skill

Rather than just sitting still

Life does not end here

Keep pushing yourself to reach your aim

Why is there so much hate?

The world needs love of heavy weight

People are losing their faith

And scared to jump out of their wraith

Religion, ethnicity and culture are a label

And fill each other’s life with fun

It does not matter what your race

Or the colour of your face

There is no need to worry

As the Earth’s alignment is tilted towards the Sun…

And the number of daylight hours increase…

The trees put forth new leaves…

In the early morning, we hear birds chirping in trees…

The bees’ hum filling our souls with delights…

Prompting that Spring is here, so banish the gloomy gus!
