Rise up to the blessing of another day.
To all that awaits you this moment.
To all that will challenge you and enlighten you.
 
Rise up to the opportunity to live in your truth and appreciate the truth of others.
To make a difference and matter to...

Break forth, o dawn! Rise up and sing the sun
from underneath the hills into the light.
Put out the crimson fires and take a run
through azure laced with lazy wisps of white.

To sleep, o moon! It’s time for you to wane
and nestle in below the canopy.
Dear...

Rise Up Warrior And Slay The Savage Beasts


Rise thyself up and fight the angry storm
Tomorrow will certainly be far too late
Stirring winds are flashing their usual norm
In conjunction with busy hands of Fate
Trees swaying, limbs breaking, man what a roar
The angry gods are gifting out...

You have to fly 
to keep your wings,
You have to look
to see better things;

You must have faith
otherwise, you'll fall,
and before you can run
you first, must crawl;

How can you have hope
if you don't believe?
If you don't even try
You'll never achieve;

If you wan't to know
you'll just have...

I was walking in the sunshine
With nothing on my mind
Searching through the memories
Trying real hard to find
To find that certain memory
Buried underneath the dust
Then I heard myself say
"In you lord I trust"
I felt a certain comfort 
I had never felt before
As I became in ...

Rise up and face the world 
Continue to live your life 
Days will come and go 
Some moments are filled with corruption and strife 
But, you have to keep going 
Do not drown in sorrow 
Take positive strides at things 
In order to make a...

Today, I took a ride
Skies are bright, sun is shining
The radio on, to lift me up
From this new place of challenges,
We all now face 
Mountains are capped white with snow
Shining in the backdrop of blue
My heart goes out to everyone here
As I send best wishes...

thunderous clapping of wings
the rose bushes sway

Rise up from poverty 
Get off of those streets 
There is nothing but uncertainty 
You never know the predicament that you may meet 
Take back your life 
Move towards the light 
Get out of the darkness 
And make your life bright...

RISE-UP

Why are we dumb as woman and man?
The world is [really] not like that to live in.
          We don't let stressors break us down when we should address them right now.

The nit-wit and the nincompoop
cordially bowed on the concert hall stoop.
Greeting the doorman, quite gaily
who nodded back, though more grayly.
And nobody dared to complain or bemoan
that fools were ruling the cobblestone
streets, where urchins peddled faux-wares
beneath the stoop, out in the square.
And the nit-wit offered a...

It really puzzles me when it comes to how 
humans process and react to circumstances, 
for instance, 300 girls are kidnapped by 
lowlife cowardly terrorists,  while the world 
community sits back and says, " oh what a 
shame". Well im sorry words of outrage...

Rise up ye armies of peace and love
Make known you're tactical plan
To rid the world of this evil scourge
Of wars and the killing of man

It's not too late but it soon will be
Beyond our efforts to change
This world is still a beautiful place
To neglect it...

Rise up  child, 
Rise high.
It is time to ignore the existence of racism  discrimination , antagonism,  tribalism and  xenophobia on earth. 
As It is hard for you to change some people who hate the truth. 
Stop playing victim to favour others, 
Correct your small mistakes...
