In every path we trudge and travel,
let's stand high, walk with pride and will,
though we know at any distance we could,
lost our way and we might fail...
Giving up is not in my book,
fighting is not also on the list,
what I've learned from life is this;
to try on luck and do my best...
Let's keep this firm grip in our hands,
holding success as the prize,
though our hands may turn cold and wet,
Oh! never let go off the dice...
Yes, luck will be on our side it will,
though the present's bleak, full of mischief,
it's there when you don't look and seek,
lifes puzzle will just solve itself.
A two minute read....
As I was walking
down life's highway
many years ago..
I came upon a
sign that read,
"Heaven's Grocery Store".
When I got a
little closer
The doors swung
open wide
And when I came
to myself
I was standing
inside.
I saw a host of
angels.
They were
standing everywhere,
One handed me a
basket
and said,"My
child shop with care."
Everything a
human needed
was in that
grocery store,
And what you
could not carry
you could come
back for more..
First, I got some
Patience.
Love was in that
same row.
Further down was
Understanding.
you need that
everywhere you go.
I got a box or
two of Wisdom
and Faith a bag
or two.
And Charity of
course
I would need some
of that too.
I couldn't miss
the Holy Ghost
It was all over
the place.
And then some
Strenght
and Courage to
help me run this race.
My basket was
getting full
but I remembered
I needed Grace,
And then I chose
Salvation for
Salvation was for
free.
I tried to get
enough of that to do
for you and me.
Then I started to
the counter
to pay my grocery
bill,
For I thought I
had everything
to do the masters
will.
As I went up the
aisle
I saw prayer and
put that in,
For I knew when I
stepped outside
I would run into
sin.
Peace and Joy
were plentiful,
the last things
on the shelf.
Song and Praise
were hanging near
So I just helped
myself.
Then I said to
the angel
"Now how much do
I owe?"
He smiled and
said,
"Just take them
everywhere you go."
Again I asked
"Really now,
How much do I
owe?"
"My child" he
said, "God paid your bill
a long long time
ago."
send to you with a loving heart...
from a friend.
"Joys of Nature"
By: TGV
Out of nowhere, seeds has grown,
blown by wind from far away land,
flowers with hue of yellow,red and maroon,
has blossomed to this earthy sand...
Peeking from it's stem,
so proudly blessed,
the look of it,
you'll be heavenly pleased...
Calm and soft as early morn,
quietly, peacefully as it sway,
branches strongly carried her silently,
breathing life from day to day....
Butterflies had come to join the scene,
to taste it's sweet with it's hungered lips,
tidings of love it also brings,
to petals it dances as it flips...
While bumble bees gayly hopping,
to sip some honey from it for free,
from flower to flower they're gently moving,
the mood so loving and so carefree...
Soft air swayed the petals gently,
as butterflies and bees we're doing their ritual,
of a very busy day,
so amusing, so habitual...
It's wings flap as the wind blow,
till the end of the day they will play,
no worries of life like humans do,
they're the luckiest on earth to stay...
Wishing I was just a bee or maybe a butterfly,
for a while I will live in my cocoon,
then one day I'll be floating up in the air,
I'll fly and soar high up to the yellow moon...
Sometimes, I also wish I'm just a flower,
like the scene that's written here,
full of wonders full of love,
I will live merrily till the day I wither...
"Superhero"
By TGV
He came like a knight in shining armour,
on a broad daylight,
lashing his whip like thunder,
all to my delight.
Fast and speedy, but how smooth it seems,
can't keep up to his speed,
like a storm and the wind in mars,
with his double fiery steed.
Mercurial though he is made so,
changing lanes, just set him free,
must keep up to compromise and let him be,
to his limited time of stay.
Count the minutes, count the seconds,
it is the best to do,
count the blessings when the hero steps in,
for he'll be gone before you know.
Does he got a gold heart?
Or is his heart made of steel?
Is his mind made of thunder bolt?
That his soul has to dwell?
Does my hero hath soul in him?
Or just made for everyone in need,
can you just linger for a while,
to laugh to smile and live instead?
Can't you just be with me right here?
Never leaving me in sight,
from dusk till dawn and morn till noon,
'cause, I can be your friend day and night.
He came like a brother, a father, a friend and a lover,
but that he didn't know,
for I had sealed it here within me...
He will always be my Hero.
"Savouring Success"
by: TGV
It taste edibly and with flavour,
sweeter than cotton candy,
fruity, smoothy, coated with sugar,
condensed than honeybee...
Extra sweet gobble it straight,
try some nutty crunch too,
frothy mix of whites and pinks
with crusty, crispy fillings,
you have to munch or chew...
Taste those browns, some tawny punch,
like warm cocos in wintery nights,
nor it says, "Self Service",
serve to your delights...
Help yourself and never look back,
while there is time to spree,
Before this day is over be ready,
tomorrow is another concoctive day...
"Revisiting"
by: TGV
The hymnal is opened in front of me,
but can't sing the tune written on its page,
I can still remember how gayly I sang these hymns long ago,
that was during my younger age...
This holy place I dearly loved so well,
I can recall those Christmas masses we had here so fun,
this sacred place where I had my first communion,
will be remembered, though the years are far and gone...
Very well, I've meet some folks few of them with familiar faces,
but people around look at me like a stranger,
can't count the years that I did have missed,
going back to a place I loved so dear...
My favorite priest was so old when he passed away,
I admit I admired him as much as the townsfolk here,
I'm so sad not to have the chance to say, "Goodbye" and "Thankyou",
before God has taken him to His shelter...
Tomorrow I have to go to the other side of the world,
destined for me miles away..so away from here,
but I will always come to visit you,
my old church and my birthplace so fair.
"Dare to be Different"
By: TGV
Life is a struggle,
must live up to its limit,
dragging us to kick up double,
'till we break up to bits...
Help! does anyone care to do,
maybe there's few in sight,
not unless you're maulered and mangled,
they'll give you a hand with might...
Walk with grace, I've heard them say...
Walk with faith I always do...
Walk differently without a mask...
What differences did you know...
This soul is wildly searching wide and far,
to the battled lands of men I bent,
won't give up now, can't go back now,
the roads are blocked, just dare to be different.
"Gently"
By: TGV
Time stood still, the day I met you,
up in the sky I've seen a rainbow,
all days gray skies turn to blue,
when you're with me and I'm with you.
I'll always keep you here in my abode,
paint your smile with strokes so tender,
brushing it gently with my caress,
filled with colors that will last forever.
Happy face I live everyday,
memories will live on all through the years,
keeping me warm and joyful I swear,
will linger on with no tears.
We never made promises, yes never...
just happy psalms we share everyday,
you'll be like a garden that will never fade...
I know I'll cherish you deep within me.
Time is somewhat short of count,
can't hold the hours to stay longer,
all that's left are moments wish,
minutes just slipt away without glitter.
Though signs did warned to just let go,
still I'm finding words to make you stay,
the righteous ones are made for heaven,
Fools are made of you and me.
Yes, fate sometimes is so cruel,
connecting wrong path and ways,
can't take a leap 'till what's done is done,
though caution says how wrong it is.
I should have set you on your way long ago,
I thought of it everyday,
though my heart don't know how to...
but if you do, please be gentle when you leave me.
" Graciela "
by: TGV
The old phone in the corner rang,
there was you on the line,
I have thought of you in trouble,
but your tone seems fine.
I've counted from when you last called me up,
well, that was almost a year,
but, you told me now- you missed me,
and you sound so sincere..
Of all friends that I have in the neighborhood,
We live the closest and the nearest,
but you'll only call me
when trouble arise...
You even went to places of nowhere,
never telling me where you've been or when you left
and gone,
but I treated you just the same,
just like nothing has happened
when you're wanderings are done.
There was one day so much different,
you call me up one early morning,
asking me to come over,
for you haven't slept a wink..
No dilly dally to your place I ran,
but can't believe what my eyes did see..
You were lying with comfort in a hammock,
Sleeping like a baby...
All these happy moments I must call,
will be kept and will be cherished,
to let you know, although you're gone forever,
You will always be my friend everdearest.
"Thankyou!"
By: TGV
You write me some words,
You find me a rhyme,
You sing me a song
that's filled with our line...
You show me happy face,
in every miles that we walk,
You hold out my hand,
as we talk and we talk,
With you life is so free,
With you life is no bore,
when you come around,
that I can't ignore...
Thankfulness isn't enough,
but that's all I could utter,
and though my life may fade,
you must know, you're in my heart forever.
One Moonlight
We've come a long way to share this fleeting hour,
and filled each moment with all the warmth,
the sky, the moon and the sea has witnessed,
while you hold me in your arms as we danced...
Music we hear it sounds so sweet,
cold wind we don't mind it blows deep,
this memory should it linger forever,
just yours and mine to keep...
"Letting Go off My Sadness"
Why do you let the sun set in?
why do we let the days go on in blue,
why do mornings seem so long?
why am I always missing the days I'm with you...
Why do I hear the wind whistling?
from my old window pane...
why do I hear the larks crying?
does it mean, my heart's in pain?
Why is my music sadly versed...
It's supposed to sooth my soul,
why can't I find answers anywhere?
just find myself staring on the wall...
"Wishes"
by:TGV
I wish I may I wish I might
could pull a star that shines at night...
I wish I may I wish I might
turn nights to day make it so bright...
I wish I may I wish I might
turn days so fast 'till you're in sight...
I wish I may I wish I might
could make you stay to your delight...
I wish I may I wish I might
could tell the highest mighty might...
I wish I may I wish I might
could change the wrong, and turn it right.
"Hello Gemini"
by:TGV
Happiness that's how we felt on days when we're together as one,
no matter what the weather or the chance,
it keeps us nearer to each other
doesn't care about the distance...
Living is loving that we also knew,
to hear our heart beating tirelessly,
it keeps us feeling a life worth living,
alive, so young, but oh! yes, giddily free...
To some it seems that heaven and earth are so apart,
ours so near and clouded with colored rays,
sun goes up and sun sets in,
how we love to count the days,
Time, seconds and minutes happily goes
there they sit still but ticking merrily,
for we knew that you and I are one,
I , Myself and Me...
"Realization"
by: TGV
Call it illusion, that has come to an end,
just like a song and a sweet refrain,
it started with "Hello", then end up with "Goodbye"..
though fond memories remain, yet I have to sigh..
Exchanging glances that's how we began,
with ardent flow, kinda whirl of emotion,
the thought of us as un-ending and eternal,
it happens fast like a torrid notion..
But how can one person be intimate with two,
though may chances has find it's way,
how can one person be in two places,
when outcome could be uncertainty..
Though illusion ends, I had had my share..
corners of the world; I've took each pace in discreet,
through rugged roads and rough terrains in winter,
I've traveled far; to all those secret places with no
regret..
"Friendship"
by:TGV
There are friends of quality,
and there are friends of quantity,
there are friends who come and stray,
and there are friends who wants to stay...
There are friends who live so far,
and there are friends who live so near,
there are friends that makes us laugh,
there are friends who makes us swear...
There are friends who walks with us everyday,
there are friends who calls 3:00 in the morning,
there are friends who never call,
these friends though are interesting...
There are friends who makes us cry,
There are friends who brings surprise...
There are friends who makes us wonder,
where on earth had they got their prize...
There are friends who are lenders and givers,
and there are friends who are takers too,
and to all the kinds written above,
what kind of friend are you?
No matter what kind of friend we are,
let's just make life worth living for a while,
when time has come that life is ripen,
at least we can look back and wear a smile.
"Face of Passion"
By:TGV
Oh!, two sad souls down the bay..
"Goodbye" she said to him with a smile,
and to her dainty fair lady he hold her close..
"Come and hug me dearly, stay for a while".
Passionately she kissed him,
though his face so mellow,
waved her hand and said, "I'll be back soon."
He just answered, " I know!"
Days had passed, years did go,
he haven't hear from her again,
forgetful she as it may seem,
but he longs for her returning.
Deep inside, his heart did bled,
though sweet memories lies therein,
counting stars at night he made,
sending his sighs to heaven.
Women are just like songs men sing,
he now thought of it as so,
they're here to stay, may not be forever...
he should have known it long ago.
" I and Me "
by:TGV
Loving you comes so easy,
and I don't have the choice but to love thee,
you know the reason why it is,
because when I'm with you, you are with me...
I can tell you words of disdain,
I can tell you words full of secret,
I can tell you all my sighs,
words of love, or words of hate...
Yes, you are so easy to be with,
to play with, to mess with, to taunt with,
and I know your patience is tested so many times in the line,
but farsightedly you don't mind the humps and bumps of life,
well, rather find it interestingly fine.
Yourself you see like a bumblebee,
you bumble, you tumble out but with modesty,
how I admired every decisions you reach,
when trouble sets from day to day...
I am so blissed to have you in this life,
hence, I am really your intimate,
this life may go and pass and fade,
with me, myself, and I on our last breath.
