Amateur Poems!!

The Last Journey

o Lord of Heaven above!

The Great Lord of Heaven above

Spare not me, but my friends

For i don't wish to live in this world of trends

Hatred & Betrayal to a person

Makes Him sensitive and unbearable without a reason

Gone with the wind is my happiness

Together with my cheerfulness

Dark circles penetrate under my eye

The thought of betrayal makes me die

How happily the butterfly flies

So will i be when i die

Don't mourn my friend, don't grieve

For nothing now would make me to believe

Let alone the soul to rest in peace

Let alone the soul to rest in peace

Friendship

Friendship is like Mother Earth

It can bear all sorrow's and joys

Friendship is like sun

It is always bright with light

Friendship is like stars in the sky

It can never be counted

Friendship is like the sea

It is very deep and broad

Friendship is like books

It may be good or bad

Friendship is like a flower

It may be soft and sensitive

Friendship is like water

It may be pure or impure

Friendship is like a moon

It may shine brightly or be dull

Friendship is like a game

It may win or lose

Friendship is like me!

Sometimes very angry and

Sometimes very funny!

Seagull

Don't fly away seagull

Don't fly away

In this big beautiful sky

I try to catch you

But i cant catch you,Why?

Don't fly away seagull

Don't fly away

In this fantastic nature

I try to touch you

But i can't touch you,Why?

Don't fly away seagull

Don't fly away

In this wonderful mother earth

I try to kiss you

But i can't kiss you,Why?

Don't fly away seagull

Don't fly away

Late to School !

Tring! The clock rings
It is just 6:45Am
Tring! Again it rings
Oh! My God, it is 8Am
I couldn't eat my breakfast
I couldn't tie my hair properly
I couldn't wear my shoes
I couldn't catch my bus soon
I was late to school
Was punished by the teacher
Was asked to stand outside
All i could say was
Sorry Miss for coming late
