To the Infinite

Love is a fusion
of all surrounding familiarities
It incorporates in itself
all cares of culture;
custom; state and agency.

The affections of aged men
differ from those of young chaps,
And though it be same;
it comes in different forms and fragrances.
Some with power, pride
and pretence must love different
while those with lifetime on limb,
Their love is infinite.

Sometimes I Pray

Sometimes I pray before I sleep;
Sometimes I pray, the lord; my soul to keep,
Sometimes I pray.....

Sometimes I pray in the morning;
Sometimes I pray for those in mourning,
Sometimes I pray.....

Sometimes I pray for rain;
Sometimes I pray for nomore pain,
Sometimes I pray.....

Sometimes I pray before i eat;
Sometimes I pray for good bread and meat,
Sometimes I pray.....

Sometimes I pray, my baby; that you'll stay;
But only sometimes for these things do I pray,
For I talk to my Lord everyday...
