by Author Reinvented
Today I went out and I played in the rain,
It was fun, it was wet, and not at all sane.
I laughed and I spun in the rain, and I danced,
I'd do it again, given the chance.
The rain was cool,
And made my clothes sticky,
But the weather was warm,
And not at all icky.

Poverty as a Pandemic Pain
by Ololade Raji
Life in the hood means nothing without a livelihood as those in the hood will choose livelihoods over lives. Maybe you now know why the frenzy virus feeds on your lives through the hunger of those in the hood
But if you fear the virus and still value your life above your livelihood, then, you are not in the hood. And you better not leave those in the hood to leave the hood for food and the virus
For it is good to move their food to the hood so they remain in the hood, then, you would not need to brood over their covid moves to leave their hood
I hope you know the gloom that looms if you do not give a hoot and look beyond loots. Have I just told you how to woo those in the hood with food to stay at home?
If you do not believe that you need food to ease the pandemic pains in the hood, you would neither believe in the corona dirge for a sweet aunt nor a word from this howl

Live like there's no death
by Author Reinvented
Live like there's no death
Run like theres no tripping
Laugh like there's no crying
Love like there's no heartbreak
Kiss like there's no poison on her lips
Cuz if you die, then you'll die happy,
You'll learn to fly before you trip,
Your crying will be as sincere as your laughter,
You'll love stronger than the pain,

Women, not to be a bride alone
by Thirumala Reddy
Hey woman! Yes you, listen out to me,
You might not be beautiful,
But you are surely wonderful.
One might say you are awful,
But say yourself you are forethoughtful.
Have your own voice, soul, and mind.
Because you are a woman,
Born to live, not to be a bride alone.
Live a life of resourceful,

The reality of myself!
by Manuel Cegonha
Everything is a star in the shine,
Feeling the new coming!
That burn,
Time to create!
Candle in being,
work, plant.
To be able to harvest!
Life is not life,

Perfect
by Author Reinvented
Today, I sat out in the sun
On the tea house patio,
Sipping an iced blueberry tea,
Basking in the sun's glow.
I sat and read some enthralling books,
In the wind both warm and fair
(Earlier I found a cozy book store
So I went and bought them there.)

High Time
by Yoko Fushigina
From everlasting times
The sinners, that we are,
Fear blowing humankind to kingdom come.
So that is why the lies,
That we derive by far,
Start fading from the seeking minds of some.
The gospel of our lives
Proclaims the rule of men.
We take what's wanted never knowing why.
