Quotes about request, page 18
Tower Of A Nation
A tower seizes the thoughts of a traveller,
Once again, tragedy strikes those below;
The traveller invites repeatedly the men on top
To a duel, and this meant war for them.
The tower embarked on a mission
To view the travels of a nation;
The nation has the tours of a whole nation,
Feeling the duels of travellers
But the travel is over now that you request
A seizure.

Your Serene Face Mirrors The God
i keep it at your line of sight
you pass by casting not a glance
i hide it out of your sight
you demand it without let
i ask you to sleep
you steadfastly keep awake
request you to smile a bit
lowering your eyes glum you look
i overflow in sleep
you drag me along to play
however much i try
i fail to read you, baby
but when you fall asleep
your serene face mirrors the god!

The Way I Miss You
The mind is foolish to think the clock is wicked.
When the gap between times is closing up
The days get so tick like hamattan fog and
The nights refuses to wake from sleep.
If the south feels cheated by Nature
And request for Justice,
Forgetting Nature's justice measures.
The case will remain the same after judgement.
This is why I can only hold on to Nature and simply miss you.

The Fly
The Fly lurks around putrid matter
and delights in savouring human waste.
The dis-tasteful things we love to hate
satisfy his insatiable taste
for foul smelling things that are better
cast in the bin from our very sight.
He does not savour anything right,
he comes to dine without our request
for he is the most unpleasant guest
to find at the table when we feast.

Fray
Joining the fray,
The Deputy Minister!
And like the request you deserve on this love,
But your issuing statements are like the muse of the birds up high!
However, it therefore comes as no surprise to me.
The airwaves,
The political fray,
The court precincts,
And about their rulings!
But every now and then with the muse of your love,
And your statements were like the flying birds up high.

Desperate souls
Keen eyes
Hyperactive legs
Grimace on the face
Desperate souls
The desire goes beyond the want
And fatal will be it's obstacle
Mete follows strong anxiety
Worry and passion
Emotions burning like wild fire
Like the world will crack if it fails
Your weakpoint
Hunger, thirst, anxiety, enthusiasm!
Can the world go beyond the ordinary?
To grant her precious request
To calm her desperate soul

Where she lays
Where she lays
~
Where she lays to sleep
many a flower grows
her beauty water like
flowing without restraint
it reigns into the soul
a light which brightly shines
to love words are given
without request for reply
they seep and drip
from lip to lips
ode to the nectar a kiss
heavenly felt a touch
from hand to the heart
a pillow to her mind
where she lays to sleep
many a flower grows
beautiful

Ink
To see an inked paper with ink
You write also, you keep it tidy.
The request of the teacher must be met,
With all the paper in this planet.
To watch may leave us suddenly with more work,
But evil writing carries progress to astonish,
And the reporting of sins leaves us.
You need pencils but not pride of strength
To gain acceptance, to acquire safety.
I write along my nights with nature
Outside.

The Second Ark (a poem for children)
there is a school for young children
known as the Second Ark
if I am ever a 4 year old again
I will request the Ark
the kids draw pictures
they cook, they sing and they count to ten in Spanish
they jump on a trampoline to help people
it's just a school but it looks like heaven
if I could graduate from the Ark
I would carry everything in my head
and bring it to the rest of the world

From A Water Bubble
you hold me
in a water bubble
precariously on the
edge of your fingers
frail are my limbs
frailer are my wings
multicolored rays
focused on me on
this unique stage
i whirled and whirled
to amuse you, my creator
at the end of a performance
the bubble closed me in
don't bring me back to life
is my earnest request to you
for i no longer can renew my
spirit to amuse you again!
