The first one is for laughter
And infinite romance.
For smiling and for hugging
For giving me a chance.
The second is for hope;
And longing for tomorrow.
She opens up this heart
Whenever we face sorrow.

Let's not title it, let's not label it,
Let's break the ice, and enable it,
It's what my heart said, when I walked through clouds,
When my beats whispered, they heard it loud,
I'm back, to reign every fairy, with my silly words,
To vanish every doom, killing the nasty birds,
It's time for you, to wake up, and crawl, a quite long,
Don't wait for anyone, who may walk along,
You are a dawn, of yourself, know it, before they do,
As they are wishing to perish you, before you do,

The people who knew you, know that I was very fortunate to be your son.
If you hadn't passed away, today you would've become seventy-one.
Another year has passed and another birthday has come around.
Seven years ago, you were alive and well but now you're buried in the ground.
When my brother didn't buy you a birthday cake in 2012, I bought you one.
It was both a privilege and an honor to buy you a cake and to be your son.
When you died in 2013, I damn nearly fell apart.
I had to lick my wounds and nurse a broken heart.

A dedication to a fellow-poet who wrote on the wonder of trees:
There was none around
dusk was about to set in
a tender voice I heard
it hardly made a sound:
'Under our warm shades you frolicked
so often as a child--such lonely joys you found

The Christmas of 2012 was the last Christmas that you celebrated on Earth.
You were a kind and loving mother for 41 and a half years after my birth.
When March the 6th arrived, you wouldn't have a tomorrow.
It took two years for me to get over the pain and sorrow.
I can't spend anymore Christmases with you, now I spend my Christmases alone.
You were a terrific woman and the best person who I've ever known.
March of 2013 was the worst month and year that I've ever experienced.
When you passed away, it hurt me terribly and I've missed you ever since.
But I feel much better now, time does heal a man's wounds.
Merry Christmas Mom, I'm sorry that you died too soon.

Never create an unwanted obligation,
Mostly avoid any kind of litigation,
Smile offers the best possible sedation,
Avoid gossip as it leads to confusion,
Be wisely friendly by showing affection,
Create in no mind any deadly infection,
If needed, give with concern protection,
If you can't, accept it without hesitation,
Don't make foolishly a wrong derivation,
From mind, let enmity suffer deletion,

In the embrace of womanhood, a heart's warmth resides,
Kindness bestowed, where humanity confides.
Guiding lost souls through the sea's gentle sweep,
A sanctuary of solace, where hearts find retreat.
Seeds sown by your hand flourish and bloom,
Eden's dream realized, dispelling all gloom.
Love's uncharted depths, a treasure so rare,
A sunflower's triumph, petals unfurling with flair.

I was a diligent safety engineer, modifying the hazardous work practices,
Like the thrilling festive celebrations, when you open up pretty packages!
I took my work very seriously, and my motto had long been safety first,
Like waiting all the livelong day, for gone currant sun's huge color burst.
My word was always trusted, for people valued my professional opinion,
As pearlescent moon values jet darkness, when gazing on her dominion.
I made sure workers abided by safety rules, and it gave me satisfaction,
