Take a cup of envy,

and mix it with some greed,

season it with hatred,

then add some, woe is me!

 

Plus one spoon of ego,

marinade in pity,

righteous indignation,

will make the mixture pretty.

 

Make a quick snap judgement,

blend it with assumption,

now, Prapancha Soup,

is ready for consumption!

This is an ‘old’ poem , I thought it could do with a re-blog 🙂

The Rainbow of my teenage dreams,

colours abound ~ reds, golds and greens.

You’re deadly real, but not quite there,

can’t be held, we can but stare.

We don’t all see the same stormed arc;

my beautiful, beautiful Rainbow Dark.

English: A panoramic view of Howth harbour.

 

 

 

I never went to Dublin,

or strolled along the shore.

I never walked on Grafton Street,

or wore the pearls you swore.

I never came to visit you,

and relive bygone days;

to welcome ghosts that haunted me,

or weep upon your grave.
