Meriam Joseph Poems

The needles of time, it is so really right,
You can’t get it back, it just passes by.
When you’re in a rush, you find it slips by,
When you’re doing nothing, it always respites.
...

Hello, hello,
That's what we say,
When Christmas Eve comes on its way.
...

You might think there’s a creepy castle,
Lost somewhere in time,
You might think it has ghosts all around,
But it’s just in your mind.
...

Drugs, drugs, drugs,
What do you get?
More than harm is its effect,
Oh! What a dangerous quest.
...

In the mist of darkness,
Lies Deep Dark Woods,
Where the river of hatred flows on and on,
The river is dark, it is black
...

Ancient Egypt, ancient time,
Everyone wore robe and not a tie,
They invented a calendar much like the ones today,
They believed in animal gods until today.
...

Broken heart pieces scattered everywhere
Like a rose petal floating in mid air.
Where can I find them? , In the present or in a fair?
...

Malini had a funny dream,
It was really funny,
Don’t know how you’ll feel,
...

I'm thinking, I'm thinking,
That's why, I am really thinking,
There are many things in the world,
That still remains quite untold.
...

Into the future I take a peep,
in the garden as I walked,
appeared a strange black opening,
my tear dimmed eyes peeping,
...

I had a little puppy dog,
He was Jully the funny dog,
He did walk and sleep and run with me,
All I had to do was keep him clean.
...

One day I went to a fancy dress show,
I saw a rabbit on the stage floor,
I thought it was a toy but then it wasn’t,
A real live rabbit, it gave me a shock.
...

Life's good restricted,
Things take its course
Entertainment limited
T'was fine under the force
...

I think it's absurd
And it makes no sense
Have you met the world?
There's just something more dense!
...

Pink top, blue eyes,
She mocks the girl that fakes smiles
Tells her, her slang's great,
Pun intended? no way!
...

First year of all beginnings
Seated in a quiet lighted room
Trying to keep myself occupied
But that's when you entered the room
...

Every single detail captured with every glance,
You're a person in velvet and I'm still a Taylor Swift fan.
We're total opposites, yet one and the same
Sometimes all the difference is just our names
...

There's always that person who annoys you like hell,
But never did you realize that he is the only one who treated you well
And that's the kind of friendship you'd want to pursue,
But you were an idiot, because you never knew.
...

One might feel all left out,
And dark and lonely haunted in past hounds,
Of voices and insults that come in echoes,
And laughing and pointing and dismaying bellows.
...

I'd almost forgotten
How much I loved to write,
The lengths I used to read
The plots I dreamt at night.
...

The Best Poem Of Meriam Joseph

The Needles Of Time

The needles of time, it is so really right,
You can’t get it back, it just passes by.
When you’re in a rush, you find it slips by,
When you’re doing nothing, it always respites.

You can get it back,
But you need patience, of course,
To invent a time machine,
So you can fly through time.

Just count sixty seconds,
And you’ll find it very simple,
To write a lovely poem,
Of this very kind.

It’s not long, it’s just short,
That’s what you really say,
“Just five more minutes with the television”
You’ll switch it off that way.

When you forget to bring or submit something,
“I’ll bring it tomorrow” you say,
But tomorrow never comes,
Because you are made that way.

Keep track of time,
Or you’ll lose it,
Time is really precious,
The needles of time never wait anyway.
