Best Brace Up Poems

A Fool in Love

We could have been in love sometimes somehow
With the person we least expected
That feeling is always wild
That it could last you for a lifetime
True love is scares and hard to find
In the midst of our daily hustles and buzzle
We get caught in...

How steep is the slope in front of you
that you see it practically impossible to climb?
How wide is this Ocean
which seem insane to cross over?

Brace up, put your mind together
and just imagine the snow falls in June
and Flowers grow black petals.
Imagine Togo experiences Winter
and Red...

Hold the head from hanging low,
On your face, let a light snow. 
You fought and prayed, had a say; 
Answering, God had His way. 

We trust for the best and fain 
To take His answer as gain. 
What we mourn, eternal loss, 
Brought Him glory...

Unnumbered human corpses
mutilated and spread
like illegally-shot elephants in Waza Park!
From ‘man know thyself’
to ‘man hates himself’-
humans mutilate humans!

Future-bound glorious infants,
feeble moms
and luck-abandoned dads
bombed, suffocated, shot and slain
by politico-economic drunks!
Yawning stomachs here,
blood-dripping arms there,
open-mouth frozen heads here,
rotting breasts there,
decomposing legs here…

We are in Homs,
we are in...

She recall her day when she sat by the window
And saw the defiled sky to brace up on with spiritual phantasm
Of some demonic begrudges – amassing and making
The flushing spirit of the late evening merriments and bichrome realism.
 
She beshrewed the iniquity rushing by, but...

God be praised and thanked for His wondrous grace
Surely awesome with His marvelous love
Always available to match His might.

Upon Him do I brace up my work’s might
While excelling as steward of His grace
Faithful in sharing His Gospel of love.

Always, I beseech His unfailing love 
To...

Sorry,if I looked ungrateful
And my attitude makes friendship stinks like rotten eggs; 
Sorry if I am afar from our poetic accord,
It is not just me, it is my tutelage.

All a while I am a pupil
In another Land and different tongue
The Land I must know,the tongue...

Almighty God*, Source of breath and Sustainer of life,

Now and always, I seek for Your new, fresh, rejuvenating favor.
Earnestly along Your guidance, I beg for Your assured triumph 
Wrought by Your workmanship while I worship You, exalting Your name.

Brace up my faith, as I wish...

We decide how we will die 
by how we live,
we can only achieve what 
we can concieve,
what we will recieve lies in 
what we believe,
what we get are the grain 
of what we give.

Nothing works by itself, 
someone is working it
small seeds grows to 
become...

Amid falling leaves, I stand motionless
trying to understand their falling off;
is it agony of going into oblivion
or joy of freedom from a bondage.

But whatever it is, I feel amazed
at this repetitive magic of nature;
at the start of cycle of renewal
in physical and metaphysical sense.

Why do...

On a cold frosty December morning snow has already visited the land so bare so dreary,
With its mighty sword it has cut down dahlias and made us look after any tender plants,
In the north sky the aurora borealis, flashed, a winter tale says it is...

Called for blessed volunteer service flight
My soul responded with mixed feelings’ height
Yet prevailing was God’s compassion-might
Thus, I plunged into care giving delight.

Acknowledging ambivalent heart
I faced orphanage tasks midst challenge-dart
Strengthened by Christ* to fulfill my best part
With divine approval right from the start.

With years of care...

Shall I say I care 
    yet not dare show I do?  
    Your looks lock onto my eyes:  
    the charm, the shine spells 
        ...
