bursts of laughter
in the playground
where the inner child
of grandparents on a high
ignores age restrictions

in your dreams I sail with you
searching the lost gem in you

your shadow I kept in me
prolonged dreams I reach for you

red & white stripes, blue with stars
merlot reflection
muted-purple silhouette
prolonged sips, flag pole on porch...

Love song

Kissing, hugs, embracing
Romance, date nights, compassion, bliss

It seems not even your own God could answer my prayer,
Truth be told, he may have someone for you that is better.
Even after you have moved on, my love is still getting stronger....

S eeking refuge from Evils' way
E ager for comfort at Heaven's gate 
K indling faith amidst prolonged wait 
E levating love above human ways...

Hi there reality
It's been so long
Since last time we have chat prolonged
I think I'm just gonna say hi
Then bye...
I'm leaving again
You're no better than then
Always in restraint...

Embalming 
your memory
the funeral
dragged on
Returning 
the remnants
that pain
had prolonged

The pallbearers
stationed
each side
of the grave
A grieving
reminder
that time
— had enslaved

Solitude... 
Like an old sad song...
Loneliness....
Just a day prolonged...
Desolation...
Like an empty sky...
Dejection...
Like a bold-faced lie...
Despondency...
All your hopes dashed...
Disillusionment...
Alone...
And unabashed......

My family is temperamental... half temper... half mental
Some days both apply, but I try not to be judgemental
We should all try to get along
Help relief be prolonged
When the pot boils over, temper and mental are coincidental...

self-doubt exposes fear so deep
my thoughts to myself i keep

my hesitancy for help is prolonged
for my wanting to belong

the uncertainty of people's thoughts
leave me all distraught

the struggle is so real
how did i get in this ordeal?...

But at times relief's prolonged
When the pot boils over, temper and mental are coincidental...

Terry Lad a fiddle player
plucked his fiddle with his bow
And whenever he raised again
the cats would lull endure.

They followed him good and gay
that wasn't very cool.
It made the stray dogs prolonged a bay
to hear the fiddler play.

The earth continues to fight
Against the virus
Strenuously
A prolonged war indeed
And once MCO is off
Families start to gather
Hearts come closer
Love reunion
Suddenly
I heard a heart cries
Before MCO again
Please hurry back home, love
I miss you so...

In ghana
no one dies
before a short illness
no tarriness
quick, swift

no prolonged sickness
debilitating, painful
by the barrel of a gun
or incantation
by the bonnet of a car
or prophecy

no one dies
no sudden death
before a short illness
no one...

RECOGNITION
forefronted
by
consistent
&
sensitive
voices

a prescence
of delicate
artistry
 shaped
in
symbols
of
discarded
object
 trouve

now
alive

sensitive
fragile
 connections
of
elusive
 truths
unstretched
but
prolonged
&
immense...

pain of the prolonged wait
anguish of the extended break
cold stones of winter
fertilised soul hydrated heart
melodious mind
flowering the world of letters
blooming the heaven of words
questioning innocence of
the immaculate conception
the poet is a blessed soul...

A simple reflection
With a voice 
Not of, silence
That has been broken
But, 
Of the art that has been 
Mastered, 
Elegantly spoken

A simple imagination
With a vision
Not of, infinity
That has been prolonged 
But,
Of the reality 
Always, 
Where it belonged...
