Experiences

Loving you feels magical
Charming and surreal
An act of warmth and ecstasy
Unrivalled fantasy
Your love leaves me exuberant
Loving you just feels different

Believe me, Darling
All that I speak is true
Believe me, Darling
I’ve loved a hundred before you

Test of Love

When it seems like
You are failing in love
With no hopes of success
In near or distant future

Then perhaps it is time
To stop dating a teacher

Your Turn

Don’t be afraid
To make the next move
It might make
All the difference actually

Now if only you could
Roll an eight in monopoly

When The Wind Blows

When the wind blew in and
Touched my skin
Your memories resurfaced
From deep within

The memories I thought I
Had successfully blocked
Of how you always left
The windows unlocked

Father’s Day poem

Dear Dad
A very happy father’s day to you
A lot of things
I’ve learned in life
I owe them to you

My childhood was filled with laughter and merriment
And I have several fond memories to go with it
Like the time we had a leaking pipe
When you declared that you were the type
Of man to handle such problems
I saw you carry your toolbox
Determinedly
Like a thief out to pick locks
And you set off to work your magic

You took a wrench
And made a turn
Next came pliers
Oh what a fun
But nothing seemed to work
That’s when you took the hammer out
And landed a critical blow
Perhaps the most critical blow in the history
Of this family

Our house turned into a glorious fountain
Water water everywhere
I remember it like yesterday
Because I was hopping in puddles
But not everyone saw the funny side of it
Especially Mom who spoke some choice words
I had never heard before

Oh well let us not dwell
Too much on the past
Time has passed
But you still make us laugh and
That’s why I needed to thank you

A lot of things I’ve learned in life
I owe them to you
If I ever have a leaking pipe
I have my plumber on speed-dial
Who’d come and take care of matters
In a jiffy
But I won’t make a very good dad
By robbing my kids a chance of being glad
But that’s a story for another day
Because today is your day
And once again I wish you
A very happy Father’s Day

Regret #7210

I have never been hasty
Always been patient and calm
Beats me why I got a
Tattoo of your name on my arm

Sonia’s Getting Fired

Sonia is a really nice girl
If you meet her outside work
But in office she’s a sloth
And a pig-headed jerk
Now Management has had enough
They have grown too tired
Poor Sonia will be leaving us
For she is getting fired

An office’s not an easy place
So many rules apply
Sonia says they’re not for her
She’s the queen of Versailles
But Management disagrees
Their patience has expired
Sonia will not like the news
That she is getting fired

Everyone has their heads
Buried in a heap of files
While Sonia is always away
From her desk by miles
Sonia has sadly never had
A virtue they admired
Management are really firm
That she must soon be fired

If you ever needed gossip
She was the perfect source
That’s how everyone came to know
Boss is getting divorced
Now Sonia is the one
That everyone’s talking about
Management has had too much
She is getting kicked out

The only work she ever did
Was personal and her own
Like planning her next vacation
To Paris and Cologne
When Management came to know
What actually had transpired
The only choice they really had
Was quickly getting her fired

It’s not like she was never warned
One, two, three and four
Sonia laughed them all off
And many many more
Sonia took home sticky notes
And everything she desired
She won’t be laughing anymore
To learn that she’ll be fired

I’ll miss Sonia I’ll be honest
She was useless but entertaining
To hear her speak on her phone
The yarns that she’d be spinning
Sadly now she has to go
A new recruit has just been hired
I hope she decides to stay at home
Where she won’t be fired

I Hope

I hope you realize
What a big mistake
You made letting
A caring intelligent
And loving person like me
Go so easily when
I could have been
Yours forever and
Ever and ever and ever

So that I can finally feel a little bit of validation and maybe be able to go to sleep without crying or without thinking about you or ways to avenge you

Regrets #4002

This world is
Not perfect
Nothing about
It seems to
Make sense

When I look into your eyes
When I reflect on our relationship
When I think about us
I understand why

Regrets #1163

Whenever wherever
I see an old couple
Shopping together
Laughing together
Eating together
Strolling together

I realise how many more years I’ve got to drag this out with you
