Worship and Praise To God

I worship in His word for it is to 
deliver me
I give praise to God for he is the only 
living God
I worship in the Lord for in him i 
walk not by sight but faith
I give praise only to the all  Mighty for 
even gods fear Him  as the living God
I serve in worship not gods that 
comes before me in flash
Thou i serve in worship the God who 
comes before me as Holy Spirit to live 
within me to be His only flash

So who am i to be denial to such 
honour??
For i  worship and praise God not 
because its a JOB
I serve in worship and praise for it is 
for LIFE

Conviction of Caregiving

Infront of  her they called me a 
bloodyfool
When my heart called her beautiful
Lies she was told in their alibi
But she told how she felt them as a 
sweet lullaby
When they said she was to mourn 
her bereaved cares
She said she fear not in the pain of 
her cares
For she gives care to the pain she 
would bear
As she showed lament in all her tears
For my tears  not to be of swear

Then i mourned all her bereaved 
cares with bliss of tears
For in her love she exercised caution
Opening my heart handled forth to 
come
For i saw the roots of caring for 
someone with constant attention
As she stood as a pilla made of cedars
To rafter the house  my heart

Attitude To a Bigger Dream

It became  bigger than it should be
As i realised it was impregnable
Pregnancy over ninemonths to be real
As i heard all it's walls kicking
To the pain i am to feel
when the  water is to break
Then fear struck, the thoughts of me 
elude
As i almost came to compel to do the 
exclude
For i had the thinking of fear and 
defeat thoughts 
Ineffective became the dream i had 
inside as i gave it thoughts of fear
And made it's death out of fear 
certain
Making the bearing of my fruits to be 
of misfortune

Untill i one day profoundly  seen the 
need of thoughts of faith and courage
As i became the magnetism towards 
my dream
For the scenary behind the picture 
was of success nomatter how badly 
things would seem
Facing the origin of my inferiority
I started making being a candidature 
a priority
I became a candidate for any 
examination in life to restore my 
immortal baby
Found myself to be the antidote in 
modification in confidence as i 
overcame the insecurities i had
For i allowed faith to sweep all my 
doubts and made the baby to be 
manifest

Wisdom In Her Beauty

It was a face that made the moon worth shining for.
With the greetings  of the morning that had her way of walking in a room,
The  joy in her presence, with love subjected to frustration.
A new thing to her.
Pure as the virgin Mary, in her virgins territory ,
A home made off no wisdom  being destroyed by foolishness .
Her profound look ,the body of truth with no lonely eye to deceive  for nothing was false to mislead.
Love of an infant , a bond to true love

The Vow

All beautiful you are my darling
I see no flaw in you
Your love among millions was 
outstanding
For i saw you and called you blessed
Your love is so warm to be praised

Your love is as strong as death
It gives birth to jealousy unyielding 
as the grave
Love that bruised me to be brave
We went off and off with being 
distant
I am gladden by it for it was for 
commitment

As i slept with a heart closed
You arose to open to my love
And i opened to you my lover the 
door of delicacy

For you are beloved better than 
others
The most beautiful of women
Your love is beloved better than 
others  
That you changed me so?
The most beautiful of women

I belong to you  O lover 
And your desire is for me
Forr in you  i have found the one my 
heart loves

Incalculable Love

I have seen love that is most pure
Love destroyed and need no cure
Love born in a rainyday to grow
Love of a champion rejoiced love in 
his run
His love as a tent for the sun
As a bridegroom coming forth from 
his  pavilion
Love so real to nees any companion
A devote to a strong heart union

So who am i  to calculate  a delight of 
such
What reasons are there for me not to 
give in so much
Why cant it become a fixed mark
That show no wrong on the edge
Love that  never change with time 
and age
Love that needs not works of potions
Love that carry one question
The need for  'I DO' in return
Then i see no reason to limit such 
beauty
The love better than wine
Love worth being  yours and mine 
 
How complete the delights of your 
heart
How generous is your heart 
To keep all the old and new delights
A constant feel
Incalculabe and immeasurable

Sixteen On the Street Corners

Sixteen she became more of a sexist.
With her skin smooth to reek the care
of her mothers touch.
Sixteen in a black backless dress,
a mistress look,yet a woman to every 
men passing on the street corners.
Men with no back bone, i call  then spineless.
Those that made her every breath heavy,
when life was at ease.
Breath  under nudity the scenary behind her.

Sixteen  missing periods and window period.
Cometh was a life of prescribtions  and mother hood.
A used up beauty at sixteen, nolonger useful to them.
They saw only a usedfool with beauty nolonger in use.
Beautiful to bloodyfool with a child to call every man on the street corner father.
            Sixteen on the street corners

Beloved

I delight to sit in her 
shade
A fruit sweet to my 
taste
Her left arm braces 
me
Her right arm 
embraces me
A paint of my heart
For i am a faint to 
her love

Show me your face
Let me hear your 
voice
Turn you eyes from 
me
For they overwhelm 
me
Your love appears  as 
dawn
Fair as the 
moon,bright as the 
sun of dawn
Majestic as the stars 
in procession
A heart of a better 
profession and 
declaration

I place you as a seal 
over my heart
Water's cannot 
quench your love
River's cannot wash 
it away
If one were to give
All the wealth of her 
life for your love
It would be utterly 
scorned

O love come this way
That they may all 
gaze on you
Come back come back 
this way
For you never left 
As the flowing blood 
streaming down my 
heart

Love Worth Not Forsaken

It was love that grew young, 
So it could have more time to give.
Love that had the greatest of feel,
Enticing to a touch so pure to those-
That  live in the braille to see in the -
Delight  of its raised parts.
Love so worn to soon be one with the dust, 
But praised with remembrance in the best and-
Worst of remembering. 

Oh love not forsaken, 
Put to rest on a bed of nails- 
Yet so in comfort. 
Oh love the beauty in the stride of -
Your long legs, the parade in our journey.

The Fault

To lie in vain to rest 
in a bed beautified by flowers, 
was not at ease nor peace. 
As the frequent flowering 
to a hearts grave 
was of the bride married to its death. 

She who made my love selfish 
to cage a heart in its chest, 
and love only by flesh 
to cherish to perish love's delights. 

     BITTER SWEET 
Now it art in deep soils of the grave. 
Only water was at need, 
And the mother earth breast fed 
all its need and craves. 
Breaking the water, due was a heart 
moving in a heart called a home. 
        UNBROKEN IN VULNERABILITY
