Upbringing Poems

My Time Is Now

The starry night,
Put me on a Trailblazer,
Walking through a crowd,
Without making a scene,
Of all the people I have seen,
Is there a place where I have been,

Until the eclipse,
Overshadowed by the blink,
It is not what it seems,
I did not play a game,

RAISE YOUR KIDS WITH LOVE

Raise your kids with love ?? and affection
Travel with them and share with them beautiful stories of people.

Once entangled

Got out after nine months,
laid on her back,
In her arms,
On her laps…
She would snuggle me in her arms

Capitalists sell prayers and hope
From China, PRC, to you and me
In images and words: forward these
To all your contacts - such positivity
Yet we hear, embedded spyware 
Comes with readymade China prayer
To Jesus or more often, "the Universe"

LORD, I owe my all to thee
My two children from a first marriage
And my current, S. African family
Blended families

Love Unspoken

"I love you" was withheld
for lies weren't to be told.
To make this statement bold,
(too hastily expelled)
sin nature must be quelled.
Who can this task uphold?

Cautious with statements vain,
(no room left for error
as love's image bearer)
we claim not to attain
such love for truth of stain.
(Threat of the ensnarer.)

Yet we pray to show love
so that we may know

Bad Upbringing

When I take my nephew
to the park to play basketball,
I look around to spot trolls
who litter and destroy.
" Look at those hoodlooms,
how they behave and talk! "
" They are my friends " he
