Best Descendants Poems
Precious Descendants
Oh white wave
Mistress of the sea,
And you, bright fame
Of the island;
Together you teach
The one who is like God;
A heavenly flower
That blooms with your touch.
Protected under the
Wings of constancy
Rejoice, for your
Grandmother is a Pearl;
Cloaked in iridescent white,
Layers upon layers,
She shines in her
Wealth of wisdom.

They Be The Descendants Of The Confederacy
By Roy Merritt
Way down here in the land of cotton
A great many people are mean and rotten
A great many of them are foul you see
They be descendants of the Confederacy
They love that flag the Stars and Bars
Fly it from their trucks fly it from their cars
Some wear hoods only their eyes you see
They be descendants of the Confederacy
They be fools who feed on hate
They be fools a bunch of stupid ingrates
They be people who vote for poverty
They be descendants of the Confederacy
They want to go backward fast not slow
They want to go back to days of Jim Crow
They want to hate blacks burning crosses to see
They be descendants of the Confederacy
They no longer like the Democrats
Cos’ now they the party of the working class
Republicans the ones who feed their treachery
They now the party of the Confederacy
They fell for their lies the Republican scam
Thinking these Republicans ever gave damn
Ever gave a damn for their future you see
They be descendants of the Confederacy
Way down here below the Mason Dixon
They love our food our Christian tradition
The notion they’re kind full of hospitality
They be descendants of the Confederacy
Way down here in the land of cotton
A great many people are mean and rotten
A great many of them are foul you see
They be the descendants of the Confederacy
The ugly descendants of the Confederacy
The truly ugly descendants of the Confederacy
MAL AND JAY GOT MARRIED AND HAD 2 BABIES.
It is all happening in a vacuum,
This impossible grand illusion
Burning in its full spectrum
Never meant for our narrow vision
Our spaceship built itself in orbit
Launching satellites to add to its moon
The descendants of a crash-landed astronaut
Our noses always trying to balance a spoon
The atmosphere’s aqueous delusion
Allows us to breath like fish in an aquarium
As seen from a different dimension
Destined to exist in this diluted medium
We are chasing endless days
Not fast enough to escape the sun
Preparing the last days before it dies
Our impossible universe undone
Seeds, they sprout
Sprouts they grow
To the image
Copied below
Descendants rise
Far above
The quagmire
Of our love
Arise and be
All you can
Be inspired
Be a man
Hesitation
Reflects doubt
Direction
Down the spout
Deliberation
Reflects thought
Lead beyond
Needless naughts
Arise and be
All you can
Be desired
Be woman
Descendants rise
From the ash
Of desires
Yes today’s thrash
In ardour
We are sown
Way beyond
What is known
Arise and be
All you can
Be coloured
Be hue man
Be true
Be you
Hands in hands and eyes
To eyes,heart to heart and
Verdicts upon verdicts...
The hearts have merged and
Nothing of asunder.
Ebony descendants.
Their loves powerful arms, like thunder,
Rigid insinuations yet
Like flower,
So they watch all night
To see it never wither.
Ebony descendants.
Ebony arrangements
Nature's love horns sparkling
Like silver.
Always together like
Lilies and valleys.
Walking shoulder high,Proudly
Brandishing ebony complexions
Like coco-butter or something
Like sweet chocolate.
Theirs is so pleasant.
These black descendants,
These ebony make ups
These elastic African sunsets ...
Yours is hugely elegant
Yours is truly excellent....
Thank God for your presence.
Father, because of you I feel so relaxed,
Through You today I'll chill.
Let all be well inside my heart,
Because calmness is your will.
I'll take it easy all day long,
Because You make my heart leap with joy!
You cause happiness to surge within,
Like a child with Christmas toys!
Hope in You blossoms in my heart,
As flares of joy flood my soul.
It engulfs my spirit inside me.
And makes me feel so bold!
The joy of you rushes through me Lord!
Making my heart sing happy songs.
I feel intoxicated as I think of You,
Because that's where my heart belongs!
My God I'm so relaxed and chilled,
All is well with my mind and soul.
Because you've always watched over me.
From birth and now that I'm old.
I choose to see life as easy today,
And stay calm, cool and collected.
As the joy of your love ripples through my heart,
Reassuring me I won't be neglected.
Contentment just tip toed in my mind,
Now I'm buzzing with happiness.
Because I rely on a perfect God!
Who's desire is to give us the best.
Lord, what you've created is AMAZING!
You make life AWSOME & BEAUTIFUL too!
Life is DELIGHTFUL,FASCINATING and FABULOUS!
As we learn to trust in You.
People of the world should grab a bible!
Open it, say "Lord, please speak!"
Because the Author of this book,
Is the One that all mankind seeks!
Stop trying to navigate a life that's cursed.
There are spiritual things we don't understand.
We're on a journey from cradle to grave.
That the Creator himself has planned!
Do let anyone discourage you,
Saying that Jesus stuff ain't cool.
They'll realize as you will too.
You were one of the billion's of fools!

*Perhaps you’ll read the companion poem THEY WERE NOT GROWN
Man against man
Who shall it be
Descendants from trees
Hunters and gatherers
Conquest or wars
Achieve power and immortality
We kill with both hands
This curse from our past
We pray to our Gods
Enslave or genocide
Forgive us Lord,
We are descendants
From trees
