Hard Way
Taste of sweet success
does not come easy
a fruit has to ripe
before we bite
Fortune and fame
is never given free
has to work hard
to get the card
The rocky road
awaits challenge
got to engage today
success is a hard way

Inseparable!
What our marriage meant to be...
An indivisible bond my love,
which excite indissoluble sentiments.
Always together sparks our intimacy,
as if we are to join at the hip;
holding in each other's pocket...
Forever!

Awakening (Love Story 9)
Love like marriage
is tested by strife
it can break loose
or stands strong
either ways...
is never easy!
The essence
lies not in the fate
as claimed it to be
love like marriage
is an epic experience...
awakens our conscience!

Passionate Pursuit!
Art is a magical creation
of love and passion
an innate wisdom
from the heart
Love is overwhelming
when excited by beauty
Passion is inspiring
when stimulated by desire
Passionate pursuits
of love and passion
elevate the art of poetry

Dose of Choco
Can not hold but indulge,
heaven-taste choco fudge.
Oh so sweet and yummy,
chocolate ice cream so creamy.
On each day I love to devour,
loaves of choco bread each hour.
After each meal I want a dessert,
thought of a chocolate cake I assert;
even as diabetic, I can't wait!

Love In Marriage' (Loop Poem)
Two youthful beings meet
meet in the eyes with attraction
Attraction leads to infatuation
infatuation lingers and lit romance
Romance initiates courtship
courtship declares the love
Love employs commitment
commitment imposes a vow
Vow is an infinite promise
promise to love in marriage

Thoughts To Ponder # 2
I run the race
with wish to win
against the best
Many have character
others show power
I rely on humility
Character breaks when provoked
while power fails when over ruled
but humility stands against all odds
At the end of obstacles
true humility will prevail
as character and power fail

This Lonely Heart
Romantic songs I hear
always bring you near
even if you aren't here
I shall keep you dear
Moments I spent thinking
about your sweet singing
your sweet voice ringing
in my heart lingering
In solitude I still survive
memoirs keep me alive
even if you wouldn't come
my love for you won't be gone

Single Blessedness (Acrostic)
Pressures and hassles gone
restless hours are all done
on this retirement day
memories of work stay
indulgence of freedom
draws no boredom
as a single woman
Tomorrow remains unseen
over the years still dreamin'
right now my time has come
never shall I feel lonesome
onwards I live to the fullest

Endless Sorrow
Life has two faces
happiness and sorrow
either ways make essence
of what existence truly meant
With the grace of God
we are redeemed from sin
as Jesus died on the cross
and save us from damnation
Happiness makes peace
but sorrow brings turmoil
reality on earth at present
has shown endless sorrow
