Poem 292 - Winter Days

Image from Bifocal Univision 

Slippery driving, be cautious and alert

For an accident can happen through a little divert

I hate the cold, have a bad cough

Don't have the energy to have a good laugh

Throat pains, as I try to swallow

And even then my stomach feels hollow

Ah! Dear winter go away

You make my life dull as gray.

Poem 289 - Expectations - Safer Home

Image link here

I live in garbage

Dirty water actually

This isn't living

Man pollutes my home

Expecting a safer home;

In the other world

Poem 288 - The Current Youth

Image link here

It seems, we are the future, is it true?

And what are we supposed to do? I have no clue

Questions or riddles actually and I'm answer-less

If we are the future, the world might be a mess

With this generation, I have to cooperate?

And you expect us to wake up earlier than half-past eight?

And by telling me that we - the youth are the future makers, nice joke I say

We'll destroy it not create I'll bet any day

This generation, where technology has overtaken studies

And reading books is not as important as "hanging out" with 'buddies'

Will we change you think? I feel hopeless

We really seem to be in quite a big mess

Hopefully this will all be a big lie

I'm pretty sure you don't need to ask me 'why?'

Poem 287 - Pancake

Image link here

So crisp like paper

Magnificently she removes

Pancakes from the pan

They're brown as honey

Exquisite delicacy 

Hot, yummy pancake

What a gift I have

In my wonderful sister

The most precious gift 

Teases me a lot

But of course loves me much more

Invaluable

Helpful, loving, cool

I'm lucky to be gifted

A brilliant sister
