Best Baptising Poems


Premium Member Holy Lord
As the living water
Moves within streams 
falling down from the mountain source 

Baptising love in crystal light 
With burning flames inside the soul 
For keeps each word holds reverence to your name...

A Hue of Heaven
Above lime trees, below the lemon sun
The bees and birds bathe in the skies lagoon
Of this fine hour I gaze what has begun
To me to be the quiet birth of noon
In symphony with natures harp and tune

A hue of heaven brushed above the air
Of sacred...

Honest Lies
Begins with an appreciation of ledgers,
Clear, true and definite in appearance,
While a long journey through the never evers,
Finding fallacy in every reverence.

As much As I can I try to never,
Subdue that darkness within, such pain severed.
Sweats and strength wasted as it recur,
Anguished in thoughts of...

"See: A Marriage Worthy, Letters Offered to an Aching Bride"



See 
The blood of man
drips from his fingers

note the true 
Son of Man
No loud crimson 

cardinal feathers
gently caressing
psalming minds

No White Hat 
nor flag in hand, yet 
Purple hearted

when War came 
carrying in his 
arms crucifixion

nails for...

Yesterdays News
Contracting iris, I split my eyes
Pouring forth gold from a can opened sky
Globular syrup thickens the glue
Canopy black turns to canopy blue
Erasing the stars and so tragically you

Conducting the birds in an orchestral play
Rolls out red carpet that heralds the day
Baptising the sun, offsetting the...

Relief
Gathering winds cumulate moisture seeds
rolling athwart tempestuous seas,
that float in gossamer clouds on
cooling breeze, easing savage
summer swelter parching
stark expectant fields.
Sweeping inward
monsoon black,
lightning
Flash!
crack!
Thunder,
splat! Heavy
drops, dance, dart, dash.
Joyful hands clap! Young
feet, jump, splish, splash; relief
floods. Torrents rain down warm on
earth’s upturned face, rivulets run
wild along nakedness, baptising
thirsty...

Harare
Harare


This is the City that never sleeps- 
Life in every lane stirs or creeps
Full of laughter and hardly weeps.

Roads are lined with trees in bloom
that torch to flight all the gloom
as a lamp on vigil for the Groom!

Harare, a melting pot of culture
resplendent inside every...

Seasons
At First Dawn, 
The curtains part.
The sun gently peaks over a distant horizon as its rays lightly stretch over the sky.
What was once the darkest blue speckled with small jewels is now an abstract mural of roses, daffodils, and tulips coalescing to create the stage...

Antidepressant
In the red dust bowl of a dry river bed
an afterlife flowed to the distance ahead
where the eyes cannot figure the view at the end
or what lies in wait around the bend.
Gnarled fisher of dreams in twisted pain,
serotonin running on empty again,
hook, line and sinker...

Moonlight Dream Dancer
She goes out because
She can't step inside a spaceship
And go back in time
She can't retrace her steps
And figure out
Where it all went wrong
So instead...
She dances
And with her mind like a spaceship
She does blast off
And escapes her sad reality
She dances good
And she dances a long time
And...

Explain It Away
I can't live in mystery
I'm waiting with bated breath
Where and when I'll stand or fall --
The hour of my death --

The facts of life are meaningless
There is no moral code 
There may or may not be another side 
Til then, get outta the road

Go ahead
Explain...

The Morning Wakes
The morning wakes the sound of birds
The trees are flooded with delight
The poet search his heart for words
To bid farewell to sultry night

The dew hangs fresh upon the grass
Baptising my tired fevered feet
I am come home to love at last
Hibiscus and the jasmines sweet

Go stars,...
