"Good Hours" by Robert Frost
I had for my winter evening walk—
No one at all with whom to talk,
But I had the cottages in a row
Up to their shining eyes in snow.

And I thought I had the folk within:
I had the sound of a violin;
I had a glimpse through curtain laces
Of youthful forms and youthful faces.

I had such company outward bound.
I went till there were no cottages found.
I turned and repented, but coming back
I saw no window but that was black.

Over the snow my creaking feet
Disturbed the slumbering village street
Like profanation, by your leave,
At ten o’clock of a winter eve.

Twinkle twinkle little star.
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high.
Like a diamond in the sky.

LOVERS TRICKS

Close your eyes let's meditate
About getting sense
If you can afford the common one
You'll at least be better than a fool.

Love begins with praises
All its singers with melodious tones
With one conductor or director
dictating the flow...

Dedication to its practice is willingly
Because of the faithful teacher
If you arrive late
punishment is sure no matter your size

Then began choir directors favorite
The most perfect and Un-turchable element
That sings at will and sometimes skips practice
After all, if not him/her,
No one does it better.

Then comes,
The subtle imposition of his/her will
Dragging attention to his/herself in disguise
With polished stubbornness,
Aiming to achieve his/her set goal

What if there's a speed bump?

They either destroy it and have their ways
Or
Their agenda become trash.

Some with ego and ironic words,
If you're not in a hurry,
Why do you complain that the bike is slow?
Why acting heard to get?
Don't you know it's a game plan?
To push your opinion to thrive harder
Though, in disguise,

just to achieve your aim.

Lovers tricks
Tricks...

...and she Said
Hold me dearly,
Kiss Me gently
Then I'll sleep slowly
On my bed, peacefully.

My treasure 🌻

Time will tell,
If my thoughts are real
Then I'll ring the bell
And create a scene

I'll proclaim your goodness to all men
Your friends will seek thy fame
As for your chastity I'll make a bost
For in thee all natures goodness lives

If Edison was great,
And Shakespeare wise
If there be any so great on earth
In wit you pass them all

Your beauty will never be forgotten by history,
You're so beautiful that rose become trash
If I'll live many-longer years
Your smile is enough to keep me healthy

So
Dear heavens best
Your kind is rare
I guess heaven must have lost an angel the day you were born
Because my love for you is more than the love of ten thousand brothers put together.

You're my treasure,
My treasure,
Treasure 🌻.

MY SOLO-LYRICS

Lord have mercy
For I've sinned
Yeah!
I've lost it
I mean all

For hibiscus is my all
My unforgettable
My priceless
My silver
My gold
And my world

So,
Dear Lord
I'm swallowed by this sea
And my thoughts no peace
For I've missed my jewel
My priceless hibiscus

By your mercy,
Please!
Send your Angel
That thy may say my sorry
After it all,
Help my will

So...
Help me Lord.

MOBHAD IS SAYING...

Look at the internet
I mean celebrity Blogs
Especially those that build blocks against me

Look!
They're posting me and
Promoting my death

Those who couldn't speak for me
Suddenly became activist
Seeking to fight for my dead

Those who hate me like hell
And never wanted to hear my recommendation
Not even my name being mentioned where I can get help

They're the one's tagging the "relevant" on their post
So they can see
Hear
Feel
And move on

Those who claim they don't know you
Are the ones that will write the synopsis;
Of your birth
Deeds and death.

Mobhad!
How are the mighty fallen
And their dreams cut short?
Why was the latter you wrote seeking for help not attended to?
Why!
Why were men of substance not willing to help you?
But became activist
After your burial.

What is man to man?
Mobhad, You're a lesson.
A LESSON.

❤

Hear this Clarion call
For your makar made you strong
So you can break all new grounds
Such to liberate men
And women too

Oh!
Listen!
You're like the Lilly
Although your name is Erica
You grow daily above thorns
Yeah!
Thorns of wrong
Such that's so great
Greater than mount Everest

Remember
You're a founder
Also a pillar
Such that will birth records
Indeed a greater one

Hence,
May your twilight unfolds happiness
And your bed time visions
May passion lives forever
With capacity for vetilisation.

Stay strong
Again I say, be stronger ❤.

One day I will announce your name to the whole world
I'll print your image and pest it on the sky
I'll make you smile for 24hr and cause you to sleep in my arms with an endless cuddle
I'll sing lullaby of different types
These I'll do
One day💞

Nothing good comes easy
But why?
Is it why life is busy?
And some people lazy?

🌻

Steeping out in a grand style she said,
"If not perfect count me out"
Step after step she twinkle out Elegantly,
Like cowards he stood mouth wide open

She's beautiful I can't lie
If she's poison I want to die
Yet silver and so I've gone to buy
Just for love if she'll try

Baby you're costlier then diamond and Gold
Even in pounds you're worth can't be measured,
Take it to the bank I've said it all
Wake me from sleep ill still say same

Your nails like stars twinkling through
When upon your plump-like legs I behold
Your face spread like streams of joy
When upon your charming eyes I behold

Dear special one
If by chance I chose to praise,
Eternity is not enough to describe your smile
For there lies the power to soften the mind

If I'll ever seek for one so precious
This I'll ever seek
Ever seek
Seek.

You are lemon my best sweet,
When upon my lips thy body suck,
And in my Oesophagus thy sweetness desend,
My nerves relaxed and my brain calm
You're sweet my best sweet.

COUPLES STORY👫

Soon after the I do
here comes what to do
Mr. Perfect and Mrs. Right
Tell us your story

My brother the first issue is values
Afterward comes unmet expectations
In between grow argument
Such that chase away complement

Expectations may not be the reality
If he's a drunk you'll turn a side drum
Loneliness becomes your woe
Especially if you're a house wife

Every day comes with a reality
About his character and hers too
She'll be so angry if ATM Expires
And can burn you down if her friend lied to her that you're a cheat
When she hit the truth
She cried and plead for pardon

At the passion stage
We couldn't sleep without each other
But at understanding stage sometimes we sleep seperate
At corporation stage we reunite
Just them we're called man and woman.

Marriage needs endurance without beatings
If you can, use forbearance
Talk to tolerance when you're tired
Then put in more effort for better.

These are what Mr. Perfect and Mrs. Right told me.
That they're Happily Incompatible.
💑

Come 🌹

Thou fairest Queen
So beautiful beyond compare
Day and night I think of you
Yeah!
My heart beat solely for you

Come dear rose
Visit my garden
Sit with me on this green grass
I'll feed you grape and apple too

My darling rose 🌹
Your beautiful from head to toe
This I'll preach before our foes
If you'll come and be my love🌹.

My rose come
Rose come
Come.

THE ELDERS TABLE

Before us is the reality
About nothing but what is real

Be careful when you make a deal
I mean on what is ideal
For I your father have had my share of ordeal
When upon my bosom friend I lay my treasure
Something to me so precious than gold
Which I forsake diamond just for to keep
But before my eyes was my treasure traded
Not with gun point but with sweet words
Such that I sleep like Sampson on Delilah's lab
With no thought of tomorrow

Dear Dealer...

Don't mind the smile
I your father say so
Mind your mind
But be kind
Sometimes you have to sleep and wake before you say yes
Not only in might matters
Also in minds matters
For yesterday truth can be today's lies

Remember,
You can't understand everything
But Don't accept everything
For before sun comes dew at summer

Be Careful when you make a deal
Yet make a deal
Make a deal
A deal
DEAL🌻
