The World at Large

  The descending sun spooks me, As it reminds me of impending doom. The fate of the world hanging on  the joker wearing the crown. A game of deceit and endless conspiracies, Rigged to make the hidden emerge strong. ‘Come one come all’ The sign bellows. Not one peasant decided to enjoy the menu. They are sinking to fall in their own broken ship. All towing to head into the dark abyss. We enjoy playing the game when it is, Someone else who’s head will twirl if they miss. But when the trigger loads and the target is us. When the bullet wants to grab hold on us. We run so far, without a hitch. We run to never stop to check. What happened to those who tried to save us? What happened to the joker who longs for love? What happened to the magician, is he still sick? The old man, next door, did he get his tip? The world of our species amuses me.

She is a queen..A tribute to mothers all over the world!

She is a queen, not a hopeless maiden.
She is a creation of nature that is bound to rule. A prophecy bound to fulfil.
Fear bows down to her and the world never fails to heed her call.

She is a phantom of the dark meant to bring light.
In her smile there is elegance, in her posture there is chivalry, in her words there is justice and in her soul there is magic.

She is a queen, with or without a crown. Her word is final for one and all.
She doesn’t need saving from the world around.
She is the blessing we all hoped for.

A child of God, she has children of her own.
She is a queen within the chambers of her home.
She brought you up and she still never fails to call,
Whether you live under her roof or miles far.

She is a queen, didn’t you know?
She has done everything for you.
She has kept in bottles of stored tears
And her dreams have been sitting on shelves collecting dust for years.
But she still never fails to put on a smile every day.
For she is a queen in her own way.
