"whatever happens-happens trip to Namibia after an awesome time in South Africa"


feel not a tourist but rather
adventurer and traveller
simply purchasing a ticket
from wicket to wicket

only destinations known, with no clue
as to what will happen or will do,
length of away time
makes no difference and all fine

last trip pre pandemic to
namibia, south part Africa flew
by, though 5 weeks length great
busing 1 way, flying back was fate

between time no actual plan,
out of capetown begining jan
after n.y.e. party, arriving windhoek
travelling all night it took

got off bus undecided where going,
calls of rides by taxi drivers flowing
to wherever not quite sure
then guy met on bus trip tho bit of a blur

called to join him in cab to guest
house, but found in namibia its best
have ceiling fan in room, thought require
to reduce heat, even tho sleepy and tire

to sleep but ceiling fan must be found
so another place were bound
though next house, no one appear 
at door, which was not our fear 

but rather near falling asleep
after checking 3 houses deep,
till finally found room for night
even with a/c at price that was right

stayed 3 nights, then trip to check sand 
dunes with 8 guys met, to band
together as friends to camp and
hike up and down the land,

followed by trip to etosha national park,
sleeping near enough to hear bark
from wild animal, tho not a scare
as came to see, so no care

If animals close, as pictures to take
though my decision to make,
not use camera but look animals live,
and view awesome pictures after arrive

home, as viewing internet animal site
shows animals so awesome and bright, 
as experience the best ways
if pay to enter park, feel this way pays

off best, next trip to the ocean and
drive through place as desert sand
dunes meets sea, while driving truck
experiencing not giving a fuck

afterward volunteer at orphan home,
with kids no parent, so would roam
the streets free, then eating local food
in traditional way as not rude

eating with our hands like local
people do, so than not the focal
point of being an outsider, so accept us
as local even if leaving for home by bus

Hell couldnt travel anywhere from March for 6 months or so! But finally left home to go on a road trip to Vancouver Island! So wrote a Poem describing this tri!p!


"cool road trip during pandemic"

originally hoped for a road
trip though not pandemic bold
as with cases up decided not
the year or the welcoming spot 

to go, so though rarely stay in hotel
in bc, as have to be in a spell
or lucky to score a special feat
which did, as came across a treat

of 2 way trip by ferry plus three
nights in hotel, as 3rd night free
in southern end of island never
been b4, actually seemed if ever

been to island but trip had
time to chill and enjoy so not bad
as stayed in sooke, a town 
with trails and places around

then drove up the coast to
a cool little village of port renfrew
that really liked, but unfort hid 
some trails, as were closed to covid

or anxious bears, but didn't stop
enjoyment as took a hop
across the lake cowichan valley, 
as been on road when was an alley

for logging trucks by beautiful lake
as had visited before so make
creating circle trip though not fast
as felt nostalgic of times in past

also made a trip into Victoria city
as never spent time there b4 a pity 
always felt city was dead but still
during this pandemic it can fill

our day as took a walk, 
enjoy a bite and have a talk
then took a trip to return on ferry
from nanamio though not in hurry

so stopped to visit a friend in
chemainus an artsy town been
b4 so also headed to a cool
village of coombs to eat and tool

around until went to ferry back
to horseshoe bay as joined the pack
as missed one ferry but not in hurry 
like entire time so trip wasn't blurry










 





"awesome friend"


wandering life's contoured path
occasionally luckily one hath
encounter a beauty of sweet mind
and character, who's unforgettably kind

with sweetness abound
can only recall as happy that found
such a rare gem, but for no more
than a friendship as this one so

far above me with beauty class
youthful age as blessed with a mass
of talent, intelligence and more,
which urban dictionary refers as a flore,

so why friendship is enough  
as would be out of one's mind and rough
to dream in Technicolor 
of such a sexy creature for any other

thought or meaning more, as plenty of suitors
most top of class and many awesome rooters
seeking such a delectable creature in life 
so know will make someone an awesome wife, 

and why am willing to be mere underling,
as could never begin to dream and sing
with thoughts of more, than to enjoy
a close friendship, than thinking to be like boy

friend of such a rare beauty
in nature or be with such purity
so resolve and attempt to be
best lowly friend that is free

to be an acquaintance kind of guy,
thankful knowing the sky
the limit having such a respectful friend
so am willing to be one too till the end



Go Camping they said, it'll be fun they said (love the camping but dislike planning & prep)





Hell we've all been living in a lonely isolated quarantined Coviid World (a kinda nightmare) for months & sadly maybe many more yet to come! As had lot of down time to write Poetry, be my own best friend & dream!

So hell have a few digital friendships but one (knew them b4 Pandemic) somehow became kinda awesome tho never meet personally! Plus would never try to pursue this friend in other ways! Like trying to take this great friendship to the next level beyond being friends! As scared may ruin a friendship which really appreciate more than some relationships! 

As this friendship became so awesome during the Pandemic! That Happy & Content just being a great friend during the good times & bad! As hope they meet someone romantically as would be so happy for them! As want to see them happy, healthy & safe! Plus would hope we cud at least still remain close friends always! 

Bcuz want to stay in contact to assist & be there for them in any & everyway possible if needed! But don't want to convey any wrong impression to my friend! Because in our crazy society, people sometimes misinterpret thoughts & actions! As I feel many peep can't just remain friends without wanting to take a friendship to the next level!  

But after saying that, will admit that this person is so awesome in my eyes! Tho maybe I'd be dreaming but in my next life in a different situation & time! Where in my technicolor dream I am adequate enuf to match/meet their physical standards! Then hell nothing would prevent me from pursuing such a delectable creature with all my might! As would be totally worth making an ass of myself, getting rejected or told to fuck off! 

So since we're dreaming in technicolor, well if were successful in that way! Hell it would be like being in  paradise as the following lyrics would describe what would feel!

(tho hey not wanting to change things in this life & fuck things up!)





In a moment of my many melancholy times during my self isolation during this pandemic! I felt the need to jot down a short piece of poetry describing this feeling!


"a crazy time"


hard to believe

the weird strange 

time and what's going 

on in the world

everything is unpredictable

with people worried

about health, jobs,  

family and friends

mental health issues,

surviving while living

during crazy quarantine



After months of isolation while being quarantined we were able to go out and kinda mingle a bit at resturants, etc! Then WTF we get shit on with Forest Fire smoke blowing in! 

So many of us with throat congestions had to hunker down inside with our windows closed for a week until the smoke cleared! But felt it was a small scarifice compared to many others!

Which got me thinking lately that compared to a lot of peep many of us have a lot to be grateful for each & everyday! "BE GRATEF2UL IF YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS AND YOURSELVES SURVIVE THIS PANDEMIC BASICALLY UNSCATHED & HAVE BASIC OVERALL GOOD PHYSICAL & MENTAL HEALTH!!" As fuck any monetary & material shit we lost! 


"Gratitude"


have some fun

and enjoy the sun

up early in da morn

b4 the day is born


though notice a bit

diff, sun didn't hit

the horizon, my eye

and not the sky


realizing da sun's behind

fog of smoke as remind

one to be grateful of

sunny days and above


all our health inside & out

as what it's all about

for our family and friends

some not closest but this ends


as distant friend concerned about 

people's health so no need to go out

as working from home 

feeling mentally all alone


why we all feel grateful

and normal life is so powerful

and rare friendships flourish

though wouldn't nourish


normally but friendship feeling

grows when people aid in healing

during these strange and

strange feelings in all the land
