China town revisited

always those suckling pigs
roasted ducks hanging up
menu- prices
attractive prints of cuisine displayed
on stands in rows
dressing up the windows
looking,of course , very chinese indeed

this cosmopolitan city, London
never a time could I feel do red
that this china town away from mother china bringing surprises

a mark of strange ---this oriental culture
raising eye-brows among those of cultural differences
stopping by the window dressings
a self-invitation to taste
this culturally strange cuisine
in this china town I see and watch be revisited
an always interesting market
for all shoppers and tourists
at their walking-by do they stop!
to sip a cup of chinese tea
and awaiting eagerly the yet -to-be- ordered cuisine
for so long have they heard of and heard about
now to be tasted
this China town worths to be revisited
here in London town

water ! oh! water!

water ! oh ! water!
from heaven above
a gift from nature-- the mother of life
so abundantly common
men in the tropicals taking for granted
none of it so very omportant
even to mention
in fact, too much at times
of flooding -- being the source --water
the curse of destructive force
that humans in the tropics
wishing it never be a gift from nature

water! oh! water!
from heaven above
a gift from nature-- the mother of life
so precious ! so vey precious
just that an always=wishingful longing
from humans,all animals and plants
the arid dwellers in desert places
and the dry mountainous tops
longingly wishing those drops --water
water from heaven above
touching their tongues
that they thirst no more!

water! oh! water!
from heaven above
a gift from nature-- the mother of life
without it none on earth
none!
All living things could survive!

water!
a gift from nature----
at times ,it rains -- drops of water
at times, it rains--- the pouring rain
all great joy-- the joyous time
just those minutes after
all humans,animals and plants satisfied!
and with humility
saying "thank- you!"

London revisited

Among million faces of international peoples
I am here London revisited
watching them walking, talking sitting in the sun
Trafalgar square an always the destination
A global activity going on
yet everyone minding his own
accepting and respecting yours and nies
the cultural diversities and traditional differenses
this London ,a city of most superlative compositions
i am here to watch again

The million of locales and curious tourists
attracted and with great interest
into the national art gallery
looking down the trafalgar
where m asters of the renaissance, the impressionism
are here collected,exhibited and treasured
their works of the most excellence
a must one would surely miss
in this London walk
but I am here again
LOndon revisited

Purgatory

Blessed art thou above all men
Be thee seem among men
Worshipping God-- thee pray to fervently
Thy prayers indeed spell holiness
And piety written on thy face
Thou art holier then men

Yet curse be upon thee
Thou always defile men
So much hurt thou incurred
Leaving those whom thou have hurt
In the cold and darkness to cry

While thou art so holy
So holy and piety
The blessing thou deserve from God
But the curse and sins be upon thee
From men
Thus being given a choice
Nor heaven nor hell
deserved thee none
maybe Purgatory there is
Thou shalt be burnt!
