BOEMS BY JA WIZDUMBs BY JA

Poetry, is not just
The rhyming of some words
It's an expression of a feeling
Which a heart shepherds
...

Do a good deed
Or fill a need
Say something nice
Or give advice
...

Happiness, is like a flower blooming
Its petals hid, its beauty looming
Then it unfolds, in all its splendor
To makes us feel, so warm and tender
...

A message of love, peace and joy
Was gifted to us, by the birth of a boy
Bequeathed as well, for all to enjoy
...

My pulse still throbs
The beat persists
My rhythm flows
I still exist
...

I can't live and watch as you depart

So I'm waiting till tomorrow
Feeling hurt and filled with sorrow
...

HAPPY NEW YEAR
Woke up New Year morning
My head in a fog
My body contorted
...

Hope springs eternal

In the human mind
...

If it's me that they malign
Should it hurt, if I don't know
If it's them that I despise
Does it, on my face then show
...

BAD NEWS
Bad news is really hard to take
Especially if, a life's at stake
To watch the torture and the pain
...

I'm running from,
Old Man Time

Struggling hard,
...

Surely there are those
Whom our lives will touch
But not for everyone
Will this matter much
...

Do you poets never rest
Do you not thirst or hunger
How despair and misery sustains you
That is what, I wonder
...

I'm a simple person
With simple plans
Simple don'ts
And simple can's
...

Beautiful thoughts, from a beautiful mind
From conception to print, so well defined
A talent we all, are not able to do
A gift that was granted, only to you
...

I just realized
To my great chagrin
Life is less stressful
Without children
...

Wisdom,
is like a visitor
That if welcome,
stays the night
...

You
Can enjoy life
So much more
When
...

We have been put
In this place
To do our time
And make our case
...

If you, are of the mind
That your life has been unkind
I wonder how you would fare
With just misery everywhere
...
