Athee Peter

Think of us and remember
Our born history of the other day,
I wish our story was another sky!
Abiding and endless in all ways;
...

How fortunate am I today!
To fare a day another day,
And stay a little a longer mile;
How grateful am I today!
...

Beauty isn't my ornament
Yet Beauty knows my beauty too,
I ain't rich in charm
I reap little when glamour calls,
...

T'was last in December 1996,
As I lay low and slow
The thirtieth night was reckoned,
The hour mid-night close;
...

When life first became you,
You were your Mummy's child;
When life first beheld you,
You were your Daddy's joy;
...

As one amongst her children,
The Dream that mothered us all-
I embarked a jocund voyage
Amidst a galaxy of friends;
...

I curled behind and melted
Before a smily lovely face,
Whose eyes greeted mine
In my equal bus;
...

Your day is young little pearl,
Stay fair until it's noon-
Until the sun is high and bright,
And warm your heart with miles of smile;
...

It sickens my heart to think
When I remember the sprain in my brain,
Ah me! What a rain of pain!
A gentleman I won't undress,
...
