I’m happy when I see my friends
They are wonders that never end,
In this world, to thrive,
They are remedies for a boring life
When our tro’bles are much and all,
Friends, they make it small,
A problem shared is a problem solved
Only if love is involved.
O when they call my name
I feel blessed with a little fame,
A wonderful feeling of being known
Flits through the hollows of my bones,
Our hearts sing a song so sweet
This makes us smile anytime we meet,
Life’s no longer difficult
While we laugh and forget our faults,
True, a faithful friend is not a curse
And a bad one makes life worse;
I’d rather sail with my friends on a ship,
Than trek all alone through life trip.
To Awe Mother
The wind nev’r ceases to blow,
And so is a mother’s love you know,
Like the moon that nev’r leaves the earth
So she was with me from birth;
And just as the river fills the oceans with water
In this manner, she fill’d me with milk and laughter
Mama, as gentle as a dove,
I’m quite sure that you are from above.
With these great works that you’ve done,
Anyone,
Even, the blind, can tell
That, certainly, papa chose well

Let me come in here:
“When our tro’bles are much and all,

O when they call my name [!, you can as well put a 'h' to 'o' just to lengthen]
I feel blessed with a little fame,
A wonderful feeling of being known
Flits through the hollows of my bones” (sweeps me like a mower in the lawn)
The second is simple, sweet and OK!
Correction in progress… thank you very much, Ostar. Technically, ‘O’ and ‘Oh’ are the same. It’s just that ‘O’ is less frequent.
good work
Well done.
Nice…
i love the rhymes, especially of the first poem.
Gracias… You guyz are great.
Awwww…these are sweet and beautiful poems. I love the functional rhymes and the elegant simplicity of the poem that cloaks the underlying depth in the poems.
I think “life trip” in “Than trek all alone through life trip.” should be “life’s trip”
Well done ayistar. Keep improving your art.
