Hyperbole

Back pain Oh back pain it's a great strain
To ascend the stairs is like climbing Mt.Everest
Do not make a mountain out of a molehill
Ah well when you have the pain you will imprint
The carpets by not moving an inch!

2
I took a nice walk in the park and was baffled by the shark
Boys rode on their bikes and turned back
For the path went on forever and ever around the river
The dogs were faster than a bullet to bully the thief
For the lady's handbag was stolen!

3
How is that when she can do a million things
You sit here doing nothing
Yelled her husband!

4
The pilots were on strike
I got lucky to get on the last flight
Though it took forever to get here
Well I waited centuries for you
And have grown old
Too late for my heart is sold!

Free Verse

Yesterday was rainy,
Today was bright and breezy
Tomorrow might be rainy
For its Springtime you see
And some days are sunny
For small flowers to blossom
Perennials start to pop up
Annuals await to show up in stores
Rainy, windy and sunny
Gets me going
To grow some plants in my garden!

Couplet

I love nature for its beauty
To save and preserve is my duty

The grandeur of its mountains
The freshness of the fountains

Natural little springs
Cool pleasant water it brings

Of which my heart sings
To the music of the bird's chirping

Happy Earth Day
For it's your 40th Birthday

Mother Nature I shall cherish
And make you flourish

In whatever possible little ways
May the God's bless me with Fays

To protect the greenery
And create the ever green scenery!

Counting by five’s

Five beehives full of honey
Ten piggy banks full of money
Fifteen chocolate ice cream
Twenty topped with whipped cream
Twenty-five tortillas to eat
Thirty filled with meat
Thirty-five donkeys dancing
Forty horses prancing
Forty-five monkeys jumping
Fifty bears growling
Fifty-five flowers swaying in breeze
Sixty Popsicles to freeze
Sixty-five Christmas wishes
Seventy gold fishes
Seventy-five toothpicks
Eighty magic tricks
Eighty-five new friends
Ninety New Year cards to send
Ninety-five nuts to chew
Hundred percent true!!!

Bits and Pieces

Tears
Diamond drops
Trickling down his cheeks
Whiny music flows
Filling the soundless air around
When needful things given
Gone are the tears and sound!

Treasures

Precious stones, gold, silver, jewelry, and money
Are these treasures…? No!
Love, kindness, compassion are the true treasures!
Also, worn out toys, long loved books, small shiny
specks of glass or metal, colored wood chips too are
treasures to the little tiny hands.

Life
Life without problems is easy
Life with problems is spicy!

Experience

Every single experience is a page in the book of life
There are volumes and volumes to write about a wife!

Crying
Any amount of crying wont help you
But you have to
Find the ways and means of what to do
And that will only help you,
To stop crying
And solve the problem!

Self-realization
The power of self- realization is far more powerful, than the use of any charms or magical powers!

Change
Change for the best
The world will change itself next!

Bliss

The quiet, calm, happy, and peaceful state of mind is bliss. When one truly experiences this, that person strives not for any other thing in life.

Monotony
It’s the same everyday
Fatigued minds feel that way!


Problems
Destructive ways like smoking and drinking are not the right way to solve any problem.
Constructive methods like painting, writing, playing instruments, singing, or even listening to music, creates a better approach to a problem which helps anyone to solve the problems!

Death
Fear not death
For, it’s not an end to anything
But, only a beginning to something!

Anger
When you are angry, or when you worry
Just write it on a paper and you will feel relieved
Give it a couple of days, the pain seem to vanish
Then tare it and trash it. Try it, you’ll see
How smoothly you can handle things!
