Poem 1: A year to be remembered (2020)
Mar 28, 2021
A new dawn emerges
Erupting like a volcano
Like a chick hatch rummages
For a new decade must bellow.
Vision just like the apparition
Fuels our zeal and weakest aspiration
Not a mirage nor sheer hallucination
Envisions our greatest precision.
The prior foreseen two scores
The duo n’ a null — a double!
The eager chronicon pores
The duo n’ a null — a bubble!
Lockdown shut up hope
For fear of deadly Covid notice
Vibes shrink around the globe
The masks know no novice
Year vows made so divine n’ sublime
Trust in the omniscient a criterion
For good fortune waves incline
Declare Cleric inspired dominion.
