Some activities in life

Since time began

Build your self-esteem

Like no others can

One such activity

Of which I’m a fan

Is sharpening pencils with a knife

As it makes me feel like a man

THE ORACLES OF ANTIQUITY

 

The Oracles of antiquity,

Were portals to the Olympians

So, the Gods could speak

Directly to those in their dominions

TELETUBBIES NEWS # 2

 

Breaking news, a Theme Park

For the Teletubbies is planned

But it only features one of them

It’s going to be called Po Land

BETTER TO REMAIN SILENT AND BE THOUGHT A FOOL

 

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool

Than to speak and remove any and all doubt

I wish I had heard that proverb before I spoke

Keeping quiet would have been a very good shout

Anyone who actually believes

That cheats never prosper

Have never seen defenders

WOMEN WILL DRESS UP TO GO SHOPPING

 

Women will dress up to go shopping

And for doing chores and errands too

Whereas Men will dress up for Weddings

And funerals, but only if they have to

THE LONELINESS OF GRIEF

 

There can be no lonelier

Place on earth than grief

When you lose a loved one

Mother, father, sister, brother,

A spouse, a close friend or lover

It burdens you heart and soul

Though you are surrounded

By kindred spirits, who also suffer

You still feel desperately alone
