I’ve been hopping all my life
From one rainbow to another
Sliding along the curves, hoping
I’ll land upon a pot of gold
With every failure now I know
How my hopes have begun to fade
Every disappointment, every loss
Is now etched upon my fate
Still I dream, still I dream
For these dreams are all I have
Still I hope, still I hope
As I climb another bow

Love Me Once Love Me Twice
Love me once, love me twice
Take me on a trip to paradise
If you wish the moon
I’ll bring it to you
If you love me once, love me twice
Hold my hand, snatch my heart
Outta my chest tear it apart
Give me pain
I won’t complain
If you love me once, love me twice
Take a punt, roll the dice
Smother my soul on a bed of lies
Close your eyes
I’ll name my price
If you love me once, love me twice
Bring Me My Girl
Bring me the scent of summer air
Bring me the sea-mermaid’s hair
Bring me the fragments of this world
Or simply bring me my girl
Bring me a song from a cuckoo’s nest
Bring me a pirate’s treasure chest
Bring me a mountain and a sea
Or simply bring my girl to me
Bring me sweet honey from a comb
Bring me pearls from an oyster’s womb
Bring me the magic in everything
Or simply to me my girl you bring
Maggie
Maggie was young and innocent
To look at she wasn’t nice
Daddy never talked to her
Mommy ignored her likewise
She never went to school
She wasn’t clever or wise
We never called her for lunch
Maybe because she had eight eyes
I know it wasn’t her fault
That she was born this way
Mommy was particularly scared
Whether it was night or day
Daddy never really bothered
Whether she was home or away
I never fancied my time
With her to spend or play
We killed her yesterday
No, it wasn’t a lot of fun
It would have been easier
Had she not tried to run
Don’t look at me like that
No good to judge someone
If you housed a spider
What would you have done?
How To Solve A Crossword Puzzle In Two Minutes
Don’t read the clues
Take someone’s help
Create your own words
Darken some squares
When She Walks
Every flower drops its petals
On her path as she walks
Yet she glides so gracefully
As if floating in air
It’s vain to try and catch her
She’s fleeting and elusive
Revel while she’s there
Happiness seldom lasts
Miley Cyrus’ Flowers, but written by a guy
I can buy myself powers
In my favourite videogame
Stay on it for hours
Do things you don’t understand
I can continue all night
With my online clan
Yeah, they can love me better than you can
Lunar New Year Poem: Spring Comes Riding On A Red Dragon
When Winter refuses to tidy up
Leaving her white blanket
Sprawling as far as the eye can see
Mother Nature must pull her ears
Give her a proper scolding and
Let her know that playtime’s over
Take your snowflakes and your ice
And all your other frigid friends
And be off to sleep
Be kind now and let your sister, Spring
Have her fun too
She’s been waiting patiently for months
Spring makes her way to the ground
Riding on a fiery, red dragon
Leaving a trail of lanterns and crackers
The flowers join her party
They gather in a parade
And dance for months on end
Untitled #13
Hold your cards close to your chest
And a secret up your sleeve
Bluff a little and let the rest
Depend on how well you deceive
Karma Is An Accountant
Karma is an accountant
Who keeps detailed records
Of all human’s debits and credits
And then goes out of her way
To balance the books
