Life is tough, sometimes people work too hard
Too hard that they put a lot of pressure
No fight, no desire and the goal was marred
Too much to take, the whole system was jarred
Take care, we have to be always on guard

Quadrille #37 – Be Not Afraid

What’s this fear, that of unknown?
ignorance and not being shown
venturing out not that bad
new experience, let’s not moan
delicate juggling process
we don’t know and have to guess
trial and error is required
anything to make us inspired
don’t need stress

Quadrille #35 – Pepper

plant our own peppers
some are spicy and some are not
the joy of harvest
add salt and pepper
they give a bit of a kick
to flavour the food
you are my pepper
adding spice to my life
and I am your salt

Quadrille #34 – Storm

Thick clouds forming
Eerily calm before the storm
Chill in the air, rainstorm brewing
And when the storm came, even apes wanted raincoats
It lifted the seas, loosened acres, filled the wells
Seducing, like an overwhelming, centrifugal Jezebel
Torrential downpour, chirruped on the road

Zeus was angry – Quadrille #32

Zeus was angry
Hera having an affair
Zeus hurled lightning bolts
Ferocious storms without delay
Wreaked havoc on earth
He castigated the Lover
Earth used to be thriving with life
Humming with magical energy
That echoed in the mountains
Now just thunder and lightning

O Romeo, my Romeo

The still of the night
Waiting for my knight
To rescue me from all this
There’s still some hope
I know I can cope
He came and gave me a kiss
My heart comes alive
Like dancing a jive
I’m all yours, my Romeo!

Quadrille #28 – Spring

See the flowers bloom
Get rid of the gloom
Our days are getting longer
Warblers are singing
And we’re out biking
And the sky, is it clearer?
Tortoises are out
They’re walking about
Crocuses and daffodils
Tulips and snowdrops
Garden as backdrops
Spring’s here
