Songs of Wababu 5
Words are suppressed before actions prevail. Feelings are denied before intentions laid. Their are many of us who want you, but only one matters. We all chatter your name in STORIES OF MEN, but still as the day falls my feelings rise for you....

Premium Member He Is Risen Linking Pin Sonnet
He Is Risen (A Linking Pin Sonnet in the Spence Style) The stone was rolled—rolled far from death’s command, Command could not contain the Son of light. Light broke the tomb and touched the trembling land, Land kissed His feet, awakened by His might. Might bowed to love, for love could not stay dead, Dead gave way when life began to...

Premium Member We Rise Anyway
Lift the chin, my friend. Let the dawn break through whatever yesterday left behind. The path was never meant to be clean or quiet— it’s blood, and gravel, and stubborn breath. But you’re not walking it alone. We carry one another in sideways glances, in cracked smiles, in hands we didn’t expect to hold us. In the eyes around you, look again— there’s fire there, flickering low, waiting for someone to believe in it. Speak...

Rise and Reclaim
You whispered love, and I believed, But in your words, I was deceived. I gave my heart, laid it down, Only to watch you let it drown. I thought you cared, I thought you’d stay, But in the end, you turned away. You smiled sweet, but it was a mask, Hiding the truth you never said. The promises you made felt real, But now...

Beyond the Label
“A geek!” they cry, But I’m not a trend to pass by. The teacher glances A frown, a silent glance. Laughter scatters like falling rain, But I remain firm, unshaken. Eyes roll, fingers point, But in my heart, I won’t disappoint. What they miss, Is the fire within. Worlds I build, dreams I chase, I move forward with steady grace. Call me a geek, But what you speak Is...

Premium Member The Rise of Gods and the Fall of Giants
From icy void, a giant stirred, Ymir, the first, his body blurred. No sun, no moon, no stars to gleam, Just primal frost, a waking dream. Then Auðumbla, the cow of might, Licked salt from ice, with all her light. And from the ice, a god arose, Búri, the ancestor, as legend goes. The Æsir came, with Odin's lead, Gods of battle, sowing seed Of...

rise above
I will rise above. Fly like a dove. Peaceful and free. Nesting in a tree. Or in the breeze. Ready to seize. So full of love. Just like me. Make the world freeze. As we rise above. ...

Grand Rise with the Sunrise
I Grand Rise with the Sunrise When darkness lingers and doubt creeps in, I whisper to my soul, "This is where we begin." First light breaks through the distant hills, Golden fingers stretching across sleeping window sills. I rise not because the day demands it, But because my spirit understands it— That every dawn holds sacred possibility, A canvas waiting for my brushstrokes...

Premium Member Echoes of praise rise around you, your beauty, an unwritten hymn
Echoes of praise rise around you, your beauty, an unwritten hymn, Words and poems weave through crowded halls, but you, only you, Hear my speaking silence, a mute symphony whispering into your soul, Burning gazes seek you, like darkness chasing the full moon, Yet you offer me the first ray of light, a vision, a forgotten dream returning. Your shy...

Rot Slow, Rise Anyway
The bed is soft, familiar. Not comfort, not really, just known. A sinking, a settling, the weight of existing pressing down, but not enough to break me. The dishes stack in the sink, a quiet monument to days slipping by. My phone buzzes, I don’t check. The world is moving, but I am not. Not yet. And still - something in my chest tightens, not in...

The Next Zimbabwe - A call to rise
**The Next Zimbabwe: A Call to Rise** In lands where dreams were forged in fire, A tale of strength, of fierce desire, From ashes of despair, they’ve learned to climb, Zimbabwe’s spirit soaring through the sands of time. A currency’s fall, a lesson steep, Where once was value, now shadows creep. Yet...

Rise of little brother
When big brother becomes too big So large it has to put on a larger wig When the inner cloister is as big as the outer And detecting dissension becomes too easy to stir That is when its helm begins to self-sabotage The appeal of change is no longer a mirage Its sheer weight disables its ability to pivot Like Rome’s...
