Making the world a better place one poem at a time.

Corpse Of Our Love

~ Frank Solanki ~ 1 Comment

Seeing the two of us laugh
In the photograph hanging above
Sighing that it’s nothing more
Than a corpse of our love

If Sorrow Doesn’t Leave Me

~ Frank Solanki ~ 5 Comments

If Sorrow doesn’t leave me
And my heart — woefully bereft
At least I’d have some company
Since you have already left

Happiness, Wake Up

~ Frank Solanki ~ 11 Comments

Happiness, wake up
I need you to be with me
This night is too quiet and eerie
Just sit and talk with me

Happiness, wake up
Without you all is wrong
You’ve been sleeping for too long
Awake and sing a song

Happiness, wake up
A little time with me you spend
I only have Sorrow as a friend
And I’m tired to the end

Happiness, wake up
I’m about to make a choice
My head makes a lot of noise
I’m about to shut its voice

Happiness, wake up
Am I doing what is right?
Should I sink in the dark of night?
Or will you wake up with the morning light?

I Hate Everyone Except You

~ Frank Solanki ~ 14 Comments

I hate the neighbour’s noisy dog
I hate the neighbours too
I hate every human being
Everyone except you

I hate the ones who keep me waiting
And the ones who talk a lot
I hate the ones who think they’re smart
And the ones who think they’re not
I hate the ones who are always asking
The questions that they’ve got
And the ones who are always giving
Responses on the spot

I wish that Earth was devoid of life
Except for me and you
For I hate all the human beings
And many more things too

I hate my friend who keeps forgetting
My money that he owes
I hate the birds that chirp all day
Don’t you get my woes?
I hate the clouds that bring the rain
I hate it when it snows
Am I always so miserable?
Oh well nobody knows

Nobody except you, my darling
What can they do to me?
I have given only you the rights
To make me more happy

Para-Para-Paradox

~ Frank Solanki ~ 4 Comments

One wise fool
One honest liar
One lucky loser
One stoic crier

One tall dwarf
One cold mum
One brave coward
One active bum

One living ghost
One evil saint
Can count to infinity
And back again

If I Furgot How To Spell

~ Frank Solanki ~ 9 Comments

If I furgot how to spell
Then life in skool would just be hell
In our ears the teechers yell
If our papers are not writen well
But that is not the case with me
I’m smartar than most kids I see
With my good frend Emily
Next year I’ll join the speling bee

Two Little Birds Sitting On A Tree

~ Frank Solanki ~ 22 Comments

Two little birds sitting on a tree
Asked each other what they would like to be

“A rabbit,” said one
“We’d hop in the sun”

The other said, “Giraffe”
Then they began to laugh

This went on for hours
They talked about all animals and flowers

They did show a lot of acumen
None wished to be a human

The Mad Scientist

~ Frank Solanki ~ 2 Comments

Every night at the stroke of three
Dad turns into a green zombie
Eats the first man in his view
Then returns home without a clue

I’m not sure if I should confess
That I’m the one behind this mess
I risk losing all my instruments
And end my science experiments

A Monster Jumped Out From The Sea

~ Frank Solanki ~ 6 Comments

A monster jumped out from the sea
Ugly, big and green
All the folks who were strolling there
Fled quickly from the scene

He chased them all one by one
Nobody he could catch
The monster seemed strong and powerful
Yet his speed was not a match

He gave a loud, painful roar
His face full of despair
Accepting his fate he retreated
Under the sea somewhere

Years later when it was revealed
The sighs rang end to end
The monster never came to eat
He came looking for a friend

The World Is A Giant Merry-Go-Round

~ Frank Solanki ~ 1 Comment

The world is a giant merry-go-round
Hold my hand and swing around
Make faces, scream, have lots of fun
Make this ride an awesome one

The world is a giant merry-go-round
Keep your feet firm on the ground
Laugh louder than you have ever done
Make this ride a joyous one

The world is a giant merry-go-round
All my friends make a lot of sound
I’ll pretend that I’m an alien
And make this ride a splendid one

The world is a giant merry-go-round
Oh what a perfect place we’ve found
Bees and trees and the seas and Sun
Make this ride a brilliant one
