Survival of the Fittest

Survival of the Fittest

by Vinita Singh

What good is it they say your nice to me.
What good is it they say your pretty.
You see the world is not a dream,
but a reality.
Emotions and sensitivity are not for
the world to see.
Its the survival of the fittest you see.
They ask me quite frequently what job do you do,
you see. I cant answer this question you see,
Sometimes I just don't understand me.
Those cash registers are not set for me
A decade has passed with customers and me.
And all these interviews you see.
I feel thats just not the job for me.
I hear the railroad tracks as I write this poetry.
Some things are just not meant for me.
What good is it they say your nice to me.
What good is it they say your pretty
I feel the poetry comes easily to me.
Those words come out of my mind dropping naturally.
What good is poetry.
Its the survival of the fittest you see.
Some say who reads the words of poetry,
but those words come so naturally you see.
I'm not in mathematics, I'm not a doctor
or a scientist.
Its the survival of the fittest you see.
those words come flowing naturally.

Love is a feeling

Love is a feeling Of desire evoked with seduction A sensuous touch of affection A moment of two people with deep attraction An anticipation without An expectation Two souls combining With meaning who Have stared at each other with Words of flirtation Love is a feeling Of two souls holding hands And walking Together communicating With eyes and not a word spoken Love is a feeling of desire of Two souls caressing one another And holding each other in comfort With an energy of two bodies In strong comfort.

Dancing Journey

From Club Fitness to Golds Gym to YMCA to Salem College to Forsyth Court to Priddy Manor to Kernersridge to Dancing in the rain. To Hot Yoga. To Physical Therapy to Painful feet and complaining. To telling everyone want to see my dance. To inventing dance as a workout with high intensity to a low intensity workout for the elderly.  From getting excited to getting creative. From choreographing to learning From emotions to expressing. From Dancing outside to Dancing away and marketing on you tube to making queuing and stretching steps. To having my videos on you tube and Facebook. From learning yoga stretches to dance steps stretches to Physical Therapy not a problem but an exercise with biking. I've only grown in the years. I've only learned in the years.                                                                                      June 5, 2020 Copyright@Vinita Singh

Lovers by the Rivers by the Grassland

           The rivers by the grassland Shallow yet narrow Glowing from the sun With a spark As the dust of dawn The rivers by the grassland Shallow yet narrow Define the beauty of a lady Walking nearby holding her lovers hand As she turns to him laughing and walking Etiquitely, wearing her long gown, Dressed in pink, heels so high As she, laughs at his jokes. The rivers by the grassland, As she gazes deeply into her lover’s eyes Standing still and smiling at him. Dreaming only to be with him for eternity by the rivers by the grassland. Only, to hold him by her arms tightly, and comfort him. Whispering words of love, deeply As she, walked slowly, by the rivers by the grassland.                                                                   Copyright@ Vinita Singh March 15, 2019
