Behind a mask
As I sat in the lawn
Under the frangipani tree
It seemed so unbelievable
What happened to me
The happy person I used to be?
I don’t have the strength to pick myself up
My entire being brimming with sorrow
Almost as massive as Mount Kilimanjaro
I feel so worthless when I look at the grey skies
towering over me
With my curiosity piqued at where the sun hides
Especially when I’m craving it’s radiance
and I need it in abundance
Are the ominous bank of dark clouds threatening
my future tomorrows?
Depression is a natural calamity
That hits at any time and place
I’ve been let down so many times
and in the most unexpected ways
I pine for the days when the burden is less
I wish there were more
that could undermine the stress
Of each passing day in my life
I pray that each time it visits me
is going to be the last
My feelings and emotions raw
With memories of my past
I want to be happy and alive I ask
erase the frowns with beaming smiles
Where I’m loving life and not hiding behind a mask.

Growing up!
Oh no! Where did all the years go?
I wish there was more time for me to grow
Life is fleeting, years rush past
Things are changing way too fast.
I wish I could take my time to be the perfect teenager,
The world wants to see
I want to splash in the puddles when it rains
And still make my fancy daisy chains
I would love to be tucked in at night
And be told everything is going to be alright
I lie in bed and stare into space
And I wish that time would slow down its pace
And finally, I am sleeping tight
Way before the clock strikes at midnight
But not until I kneel and pray
And thank God for another day.

My Elephant Friend
Oh Oh Oh how lovely!
My elephant friend is coming to tea
She comes now almost weekly,
I can't wait she is coming to see me.
I'll wear my finest dress
And comb my tangly black hair my very best,
She'll come swaying and singing
Her tiny eyes bright and shinning
I'd better go ask mommy.
If she can cut up a jackfruit from the tree,
Its Jess' favorite you see ( that's my elephant friend's name who loves me)
We must have jackfruit unquestionably
And then, she'll be on her way to her family
Who'll be waiting down the road patiently
I'll wave goodbye and never forget
Until the next time I see my elephant friend, Jess

Gone tomorrow
Looking up at her wide, blue canopy it struck me how shallow we be
Earth embraced us in her sublime fragility
Generous, unconditional, asking only that we conserve
But, consumed by greed, unheeding, we pillage and self-serve.
It is my dream to preserve her attractive green dress,
There are so many scars running through her
Causing a lot of distress.
It gets awfully cold and then as hot as can be
Are we actually unstirred?
Or pretending our vision is blurred?
The air is barely breathable
And the dénouement is unbelievable
Trees towering high above are ripped in a flash,
To shreds of paper accumulated in trash
Forests are disappearing expeditiously
Alas! There will be no more birds chirping melodiously
Habitats and oceans destroyed with waste
Crystal clear waters-gleaming, shimmering
With fish in rivers abundantly squiggling
Beaches once pristine and white
Now, littered and at pollution’s plight.
The time is NOW, to make a change
And teach our children well
Or the imposing mount, the glistening ice, the dancing seas, the murmuring trees, the mesmerizing wild and even humankind
Earth’s immodest hues would ebb fast
And become tomorrow’s past
