I felt bad, I didn’t participated in last week poem tagging. It’s not because I didn’t write a poem, as a matter of fact I wrote one. It’s cos’ my poem was so stupid that I felt too lame/shame to post it. My very first reviewers say it all (bro, mom).
Anyway I’ll keep that poem to myself and as a replacement, I came across this one. Kinda nice…hey it’s not poem but very much like a poem.

You can download the music here: “What Is It You Wanted?”

What was it you wanted
I ain’t keepin’ score
Are you the same person
That was here before?
Is it something important?
Maybe not.
What was it you wanted?
Tell me again I forgot.

Whatever you wanted
What could it be
Did somebody tell you
That you could get it from me,
Is it something that comes natural
Is it easy to say,
Why do you want it,
Who are you anyway?

Is the scenery changing,
Am I getting it wrong,
Is the whole thing going backwards,
Are they playing our song?
Where were you when it started
Do you want it for free
What was it you wanted
Are you talking to me?

I’ll try again this week.

It’s all because of Ma Moe and her ideas.
I’ll try my best to follow along. I’ll write Burmese and English or mix verses every week.
I’m no poet nor I a writer, so bear with me.

Dying Inspirations

Other day Ma Moe said,
For me to write a poem every night,
I said, “Oh ma, how can I!”,
“For I, not know a poem”.
She said “May you Do or Die”,
“Cos’ I can glare from a thousand miles”.

I begged and dragged and made a bribe,
To write a poem every forth-night.
We settled with our scores,
To have it on weekly chores,

So I scratch and scrub and start to track,
To see how my smart arse progress.
Then my bro came and said,
Are you crazy, what a crap,
That doesn’t make a single sense.

I said, “What you! Don’t be a slime,”
“Give yourself a simple try, to make it a better rhyme.”
But I know he doesn’t care,
He thinks poems are dull as squares.

So here on Mayvelous I shall scream,
To regain my dying inspirations.
And I stare, glare, flair and share the rhythm,
With a little tag for Sarnil and Jason.

Tagging You: Criers, 99Sanay, CMS, N3, Sarnil, Jason

No nah nah not me! Ma Moe started it!!!

Thanks KoDathana (I don’t know his name), Ko Nyein Chan and all other Burmese Bloggers for their help and encouragement on Burmese Blogging. I’m still practicing. This post took me 3days (3hr/day, 1para/day) of my time. I want to write more but so tired and stopped it just like that. You bet, I’ll try again later.

Updated: Thanks so much for corrections, but I think I’ll leave it as it is for my very first post. I’ll come back later and will laugh at it. Thanks bros.

From Ko Nyi Lynn Seck
Hello Sis
May I fix some spelling for you!

Dictionary- အဘိဓါန္
Daily Activities – ေန႔တဓူ၀
Want to write – ေရးခ်င္တာေပါ႔ရွင
္
ခုံခံုမင္မင္
Traditionally – မိရိုးဖလာ

ဆရာလုပ္တယ္လို႔ မထင္ပါနဲ႔ေနာ္႔။ ဆရာၾကီးလည္း မေခၚပါနဲ႔။
ညီမ ဘေလာ႔ခ္မွာ Slang ေလးေတြ ေတြ႕လိုက္ရေတာ႔ ေတာ္ေတာ္ သေဘာက် မိသြားတယ္။
ၿဖစ္ခ်င္တာၿဖစ္ ေမာင္ဘခ်စ္
စိတ္အေတာ္ေလတယ္
အားေပးလ်က္ပါ။

From Ko Dathana:
here are some spelling mistakes i saw…
စာတေၾကာင္း, တေန႔တေန႔ = စာတစ္ေၾကာင္း , တစ္ေန႔တစ္ေန႔ (spelling for “one” is တစ္ )
ကြာရွားလွပါတယ္ = ကြာျခားလွပါတယ္
ေန႔ဓဒူူဝ = ေန႔တဓူဝ
ေရးျခင္တာ=ေရးခ်င္တာ
ကိုယ့္မိရိုးဖာသာ ဗမာစာ =ကိုယ့္မိရိုးဖလာ ဗမာစာ
and… u should say ျမန္မာစာ instead of ဗမာစာ
