Marrying you is my biggest dream
When it will happen now I can’t see
In anticipation I wait 
Since our first date
I know with no doubt, that you’re my soul mate

I sit and think, another fantasy
Of different ways you’d ask “will you marry me”
Our own little house,...

Though he suddenly picked a side
Rules following he had to abide
He changed his mind quick
Came up with a neat trick
Then stuck his chest out with great pride...

In a lovely place paradisiacal, 
where the softest showers bring
blooms that open up their petals 
and then begin to sing
and shimmer in synchronization, 
with undulating hues,
vocalizing for their Maker their 
sweet melodious tunes. . . .
is where I saw you first, 
fair flower- among that...

cotton stands waiting in field

If I’d picked up a snooker cue, when I picked up a pen;
and then gone on to build a break of eight or nine or ten.

If I had only listened more to those who understand;
who told me not to play the game by using just...

My palms would sweat. I’d get physically sick.
Why was I always the last one they’d pick?
There were times I would not be selected at all,
for a physical game, I was pretty darn small.

I watched as they’d point, whisper, and scheme;
avoid if they could choosing me...

I was walking a dark path
Among black trees
Time always running
Careless and mysterious

I was running, towards nowhere,
Without meaning, without will
I flew and fell again and again
Over a dark and invisible ravine   

Then, I picked up a marble
A translucent colored glass
I gazed unwittingly through it
Unable...

Not just divinely chosen* 
but especially hand-picked by God Almighty
We faith-anchored stewards of the Lord are blessed to
Explore His appointed privileges
Experience His awesome presence
Expect for His authoritative power
Enjoy His abundant provisions
Expose His assertive precepts
Exemplify His amiable personality
Expound His assured promises
Excel by His assigned pursuits
Extol His...

We walked over the rough soil
previously churned by machine,
exposing potatoes to open air.

Mechanized harvesting 
sheds debris
like careless love hands 
whose only aim is gain.

We picked up those potatoes
scattered like rubbish, 
floating on ocean waves.

Peelings pitched as casually
as the unwanted debris of our lives,
left a freezer...

Roses are red and violets are blue

But yesterday I met a daisy whose color was a mix between the two

A sight no one had seen before, but everyone had heard the fables

Of royalty that could be found and taken with one pick

But choose the wrong...

Dont you recognise me?
am the one
the one
you called names
the one whose weight 
you made fun of
am the one who was not 
good enough to be your 
friend

am the one whose colour  
was a shame to you
am the same person
the only difference is i 
dont...

I went off to Las Vegas for some berry
On to some fun times ... not to get bury
Perhaps wide eye a show, and sight see 
Not end up at the bottom of the blue sea
The voice of the red devil said, why not
And like every...

What if! I were a girl…
Born of noble parents,
Owning jewels’ palaces in town
Willow-wood’s cottages in countryside;
Long-eared tall dogs--chained in yard, beggars –waiting in queues on doors;
Feasts served to the hungry strangers,
Wine and coffee offered to the visitors;
Having horses, herds, farms and servants,
Tens of gardens of...
