Life is a song
Life is a song,
Sing it your Way,
Sing your heart out,
Sing it to God.
Life is a song,
When I play my guitar,
Let my guitar sings along the way,
My life is an angel when I live in eternity.
Life is a song,
Follow the rhythm,
Follow the heart beat,
Follow the time signature and instinct.
Life is a song,
When seasons come and go,
When we down and happy, ,
When we lonely and alone.

Love Song For You
When I sing
with my voice,
Hearing the sound
from my soul
from my guitar
When I play guitar
with my fingers
hear the songs
from my lovers
from a remote place
When I shout
please hear my echo
hear my song
from the empty cave
When I whistle
hear my songs
from a ship and plane

Spring Season
Look at this world
As it smiles like a baby,
Reaching for treasures
That nature revives.
This is the time
that brings joy beyond measure,
Sweet as the memories
that fashion our lives.
Listen for sounds
that were frozen in winter,
Whispering soft
As a kiss on your hair.
Nature's reborn
And her warmth brings such pleasure,
sweet as the memories
That we used to share.

A Love poem for You
You're my true inspiration,
Having you in my life,
make my live worthwhile,
You’re someone special.
Loving you gives me aspiration
to free my stress and anxieties that I coped.
In times I’m thinking giving up
But You came and I stood up.
Never will I forget
how you always cheer me up
every time I'm down
and for that I'm so happy.
Whenever I'm lonely and blue,
You are there for me,
accompany me
with your every smile.

Beauty of Nature
I went to the garden and drank some ale
And heard the wailing of the nightingale
Blooming there also was a beautiful rose
But, unlike the birds, it had no woes
It looked so happy, so vigorous, so proud
Standing alone and above the crowd.
The narcissus also was looking very grand,
Had a tulip in waiting with a cup in hand
The iris there also lashing its tongue
Scolding them all, whether old or young,
And holding a flask was there a lass
Pouring red wine in everyone's glass
And there was Hafiz singing his song
Telling us to come and sing along.

Waiting for You
My Dearest friend, Lena
I have to wait
The right time
To see you.
I wait and wait
But you never
Turn up
When will I see
You again?
I waited a bit longer
Till I tired and weary
Knowing you
Will come
To meet me
For the last time.
Waiting for you forever,

My Angel
From birth,
God given me a guardian angel,
She is sent by God,
From heaven above.
To protect me,
To guide me every day,
And to give me lot of love.
She helps me when
I’m lonely,
I’m sad and fears,
I’m down and blue,
She encourages me when
I’m discouraged,
I’m not motivated,
I’m not in good mood,
I’m angry and mad.

A Poet
What does it takes to be a poet?
A creative mind and soul
Bump starting with
Daring inner voices.
Visualisation,
Imagery, metaphor,
Get into Dreamy world
Solitude place
Drafting, re-draft and revision
Choose your subject matter
Let your inner gut instinct and intuition
Guide you along the way
Create moody feeling
Dreamy and day dreaming
Context, stanza, forms, tones and lines breaking
Writing in different styles
Get rhythm and rhyme to choose you

Mountains Landscape
Thousand mountains around the parks,
A flock of birds flying high up the skies,
Above the misty clouds,
Above the sea and mountain cliffs.
A sudden appearance of rainstorm,
A heavy downpour flooded the lands,
Trees move and sway in the storm winds,
Water rapid gorging the rivers.
Lose self in the undulating valleys and peaks,
In mystical mossy forests,
Sprawling jungles trails and plantations,
classic tropical flowers, trees and farms
Lose yourself
In the mystical long rivers and waterfalls
In the mists over the highest point of the highlands
And re-discover yourself again.

Farewell, My Afei
O Afei, My Afei,
My cute little doggie,
My small white goppy.
We always together,
For 3 years;
We always love each other
No matter what,
No matter who,
No matter when,
No matter where,
No matter how.
Afei, why you left me so soon,
Making me tear apart,
Make me cry and grief,
Every day and every night.
O Afei,
Since you left me,
