Maria

Maria, your love is so amazing to me!
And i will stand by you like the well of water.
You are with a view of love so sweet,
And your love is the mountain firm beneath my feet.
Your love is amazing,
Your love is steady,
Your love is unchanging,
And your love is like a mystery to me;
How it gently lifts me up so high than Mount Everest!
Maria, your love makes me sing;
And when i am surrounded by you,
Your love carries me so high!
I am love with you and i can feel your love rising me up;
And all the joy that is growing deep inside of me is because of you.
Your love is very surprising,
Your love is very gentle,
Your love is very sweet,
And your love is like a mystery to me;
How it gently lifts me so high than Mount Everest!
And every time that i do see you,

Novacaine

the taste of your fingers
digging in the dirt
the touch of your hair
falling down your shirt
the smell of your skin
blowing across the bed
the gasping of your breath
the silence never said
the silence never said

you are my chocolate
you are my Magdelene
you are my Everest
jumping on your trampoline
you are my daybreak
falling down like summer rain
you are my flash of life
you are my novacaine
you are my novacaine

Enjoy the passage.

Every hill has a peak.
Not only the Everest.
Every man has a top.
Not only the kings.
So are women, not only queens.
Watch them when you walk,
To find which is good to see.
Your journey is not boring.

The first question which you will ask and which I must try to answer is this; What is the use of climbing Mount Everest? and my answer must at once be, it is no use. There is not the slightest prospect of any gain whatsoever.

What we can do now is contribute to a clearer understanding of what happened that day on Everest in the hope that the lessons to be learned will reduce the risk for others who, like us, take on the challenge of the mountains.

The Hills

Mt. Everest, Mt McKinley
are both too high to climb.
But I can climb the hills I see
and forever pray that's where you'll be.
For there's no hill that is too high,
no precipice too steep
to hike uphill
and take the leap
into the arms of love.

Climbing Up Mount Everest

Out of time
Out of luck
Thought I was just dreamin
Then I woke up
You said it was over
The end of the line
Im telling everybody Im fine
But Im just
Climbing up mount everest
I swear its like
Crawling from here to memphis
Knocked senseless, like
Digging a hole to china to find
You dont love me anymore
Night after night
I come home
Watch it on the news who else was overthrown
I dont understand it
As hard as I try
But I keep crossing over the great divide

Team Spirit Conquers Roof Of The World

honoured are our sports heroes
especially our believed All Blacks
decades legendary team spirit

we view them in internationals
epic test matches against Springboks
Wallabies great Rugby nations

chasing elusive pig skin with skills
in national international matches
which makes kiwi blood boil pride

we watched an Auckland bee keeper
explorer mountaineer philanthropist
forge a route through the treacherous

Khumbu Icefall later breach 12 metre
virgin rock face the 'Hillary Step' in
Himalayas near apex Mount Everest

Badu

From one's nakedness to another are the sins of men,
But i will love you like the sweet apples next door to me.
Sailer, trailer, bailer, failer, jailer!
I am the very lovely muse around you;
And i am the very one you are waiting for.
Badu, do search for me on this love;
And, i will take you up high like Mt. Everest.

Krysinski

Krysinski, ambitions have traversed the boundaries of modesty;
And i am here with the great expectations of love for you.
My love to you is like a Kumasi-bound Neoplan Bus,
But it will grow to touch you like Mount Everest.
I have an altruistic attitude towards this love and,
You have to lead the way forward on this love.

Pretentiousness

He stands as high in his own estimate
as Everest, yet never rests to show
he represents quintessence crowned by Fate,
the paragon of generations' flow,
sure soars, both source and force, all incarnate.
'I am' self-evidence appears, it seems,
with Time and Space combined, to demonstrate
perfection corresponding to all dreams
personnified. Such plateaux elevate
none without reason above lacklustre crowd.
Vice scorns torn virtue, self-perpetuate.
Ahead where most, more modest, bray less loud.
Nor could he cease to brag until his breath
apoplectic opens door to Death.

A Life

Your hidden jellylike fleshes irritate
My little warm brother
Embracing your inner organisms
Authenticating the friendliness
Adorable of pinky madness
Stumbled upon the insertion
Lava flowing with enriched
Armageddon of nutritious juices
Like driving down
The alley of Mount Everest
The reason why mankind
Existence is penultimate
We cannot erase
The pleasure
A life

Man inside the Man

A thought doesn't has wings; But it flies all over
And the man cannot control it seems.
It goes to the Mount Everest
While the body stuck in a desert
And there is no any regard for the superiors, boundaries and barriers.
What kind of an untamed animal the mind is?
It never gets satisfied ask more and more
And this sleepless creature flies forever in the cycle of birth and death.

Lily lily lily of the valley

I have to ask you why Rosalie
QUIT HER POETRY AS EARLY AS SHE STARTED
WRITING HER MAIDEN LINES IN HER TEAHAUS

Overlooking the river under a bridge made of steel
I guess well, it could be because I told her

Life is not fair. Whoever told her that life is fair?

I played games on her,
I ask her why the old monk still sweeps the
Temple stone paths under a scourging sun
And hmm she knows: because the monk is there
Because the temple stones are there
Because the sun is there
Because the sweeper is there.

I ask her an analogous question: and why did the
Mountain climbers climb Mt. Everest?
Because the Mt. Everest is there.

Concern for passion

How high the Mount Everest is
Or how deep the Pacific is,
Is not my concern right now.
How much for me she cares
And how deep for me her love is,
Is my immediate concern.

How warm the sun is,
Or how cool the moon is,
Is not my anguish.
How warm her heart is,
And how cool her look is,
Is my desperate wish.

Concern for passion
Is corporal urge
That occupies foremost.

Malala!

Little girl, courage so high, even Everest shy
Stood against savages, fought bigotry piled high.

Her philosophy: love, her initiative: wisdom
Bulletproof are such ideas, World stunned.

She longs peace, the silent warrior of Nation
Shock enough to move her country's dormant companions.

May u live long Malala, the purest of souls
On return, will find many with you, in your hard strolls.

I Love You In Neon Light

I would write I love you
In neon lights
I would have it in marquee
In Las Vegas down town
In the Champs-Elysees of Paris
I will go to Africa
To the Kilimanjaro mountains
And will have sign
I love you on the top
I love you unconditionally
So you know
I will have the sign for you
Every place you go
I will have it
Even if I go to
Tibet or mountain Everest
So I love you
And you remember that
Any place you go

A Hope Without Resolution

Hopes, ambitions, aspirations,
They are useless if not marked by graveness,
Keep on weaving the trap,
Who prevents you?
You may think to conquer the Everest
Without any solid planning,
You may dream of being a millionaire,
While your pocket is penniless,
And your efforts are not up to the mark,
Always remember that without sincerity and resolution,
Your hopes end in smoke,
And your dreams are shattered.

Let Me Play Football

Let me run on the field
Of a crowded football stadium,
The ball is sticky to my leg,
Let the opponent’s defenders to come.

Let me head the ball with full force,
When my team player does a corner kick,
I want to place the ball in opponent’s net,
That’s an honour more than climbing Everest’s pick.

Let my team’s footballers hug me,
When I score a world class goal,
And I shall preserve my supporters’ celebration
Forever in my golden soul.

Tasting the bitter love!

Darling! I cannot promise you,
That I take you to the Mount Everest Restaurant!
We just peep to a common eating house
And share a small hot dog bun
Better pour more salt
Then not necessary a sweet beverage
Cheap bottle of spring water is more than enough
to digest the stuff?
Watch the TV of Hollywood Oscar winning awards here
As they say all the balcony tickets were over.
And we act our own film once we go there

a humble dedication to Meryl Streep!
