A Spoon Full of Dreams

A spoonful of dreams,
Now tastes like rotten meat,
Not worthy of pursuing,
All that hopes of creating a life with someone,
Looks like a demolished home,
As rubbles of wishes left scattered,
All that time spent and emotions harboured,
Now worthless like demonetised currency

A joint

Joint of marijuana is heavenly 
For my buddies who seek Nirvana
I've seen them smiling endlessly
I've seen them revealing secrets 
When they're in a stoned stage 
They shared joints at night parties
The air become earthy with smoke 
Overpowering the aroma of spices

Snow in Tropic

I wish we could get real winter,
In this tropical coastal area,
With snow falling like monsoon rains,
Veiling the beaches with lush snow bed,Freezing the rivers and lakes,
Turning hills into skiing spots, 
Coating coconut trees white,
And filling the gutters in roads

What's left of life?

What's left of life?
Years to explore world
Visit unknown places 
As a wanderer 
Meet new people 
From diverse cultures
Learn their histories 
And make friendships 
Taste the spicy foods
Unique to each region
Drink water from oasis 
Ride a camel in desert 
Learn unknown languages 
Speak those to the natives 
Climb the hills with trekkers
Glide on the snow mountains
But a piece of peaceful land 
Build a home of the dreams
Grow a forest in barren land
See sunsets at lonely beaches
Cross the oceans in a cruise ship
Swim in pristine lakes and creeks
Read the masterpieces of writers 
Write poems and stories until I die 
Find someone with similar interests

Border

 

A window of hope

Closed with barbed wires 

At the border of Belarus and Poland

Thousands of refugees 

Caught in between the politics of Europe

While they chose a hard journey

To reach this far

Away from the miseries in their homelands

They dream about a better life in Europe

They're now stuck in the forest in Belarus

Waiting for an opportunity to cross the border

Even as the armed men trying to close all openings

On the Polish side

Some are lucky as they crossed the border

But their future is still uncertain 

They could be deported back to their countries

As the winter embraced the landscape

People are desperate to cross the border

While surviving with whatever given by NGOs

The burning of woods remain the only source of heat

People lie close to each other with blankets

To beat the cold while awaiting their opportunity

To cross the border
