I Have a Poem

I have a poem for peace to the world
A poem that’ll spread the message with its fires
Towards the planets with holocausts or killings
A poem that’ll talk about reality amongst the 
Communities tortured and marginalized
A poem that’ll be against female genital mutilations
With sex violation and child abuse
A poem that’ll sail on the oceans, seas 
And lakes.

I have a poem for peace to the world
A poem that’ll born the richness of solidarity 
For the poor and needy ethnicities
A poem that’ll climb the mountains with rocks
Against the tribal war and hatred
A prayer that’ll linger across the borders, horizons 
And skies.
 
I have a poem for peace to the world
A poem that’ll never accept dictatorships
But the democracy to embrace the integrity and equality
A poem that’ll victoriously shines in the midst
Of darkness to steer the world for light
A poem that’ll challenge the axis of conflicts, hunger
And war.
 
I have a poem for peace to the world
A poem that’ll change the masses from
Racialism and imperialism to harmony that prevails
A poem that’ll face no fear on the Leaders
Of the earth in the nuclear advancement
A poem that’ll heal the children, mothers
And fathers.

I have a poem for peace to the world
A poem that’ll resist the subjugation towards
The innocent creation and nature burning
A poem that’ll uphold our dignity and rights
Against the imperialists nightmares storms
A poem that’ll reign on the rivers, streams
And valleys.
 
I have a poem for peace to the world
A poem that’ll fight for my rights, your destiny
Against poverty and violence
A poem that’ll take its paths on the clouds 
Of machinations with tribalism
To bring back reconciliation within the dust 
Of bloodshed of massacre
A poem that’ll call for the struggle 
Against the tyrants holding the oppressions
And discrimination towards culture
A poem that’ll condem the child trafficking, slavery
And child soldier.
 
I have a poem for peace to the world
A poem that’ll reflect on the lives
Living in despair with no hope for future
A poem that’ll free the deprived races
From the rising massacre and destruction
A poem that’ll boldly demonstrate against
Military dominance within the humanity dignity
A poem that’ll swiftly tread in the slums, towns
And cities.
 


 
Yes!
I have a poem for peace to the world

A poem!
Like Martin Luther King had
A Dream.

Lost

Here we see love once lost in the tumbles,

Coming swiftly from above the skies,

Towards the sea we lodged in rain of just,

To warm cherish our thoughts to sail by lust,

Beneath our souls to the garden of blues.

 

Here now we find get it from the clouds,

Thy long wounded broken love needs change,

On the sea sailed with oath to hold,

With tireless returns it blossoms for unfold,

Where unmated it stands naturally to glow.

 

Here its some miles we came shipping,

Seeking such love we had in those tender hoods,

Thy loves once threaten and loosened,

Certainly lost and now strangely contained,

To refine and to renew it once it smells olds.

 

Here magically risen to conquer ‘n to sooth,

Every injured feeling within for victory,

Underneath the flowers to tread by candle,

With every hope in the living hearts to handle,

Beneath our souls to the garden of blues.

My Sweet Valentine

You are my sweet valentine of my heart,
A valentine to be sang by the violin, 
A valentine to fly beyond the tranquil, 
Till the valleys flowers catches the flow,
Truly you are a sweet valentine from the moon!

I tried my strings to toss you,
But I found its unworthy to let it varnish, 
Cos you are a signet bestowed within the statue,
To resole my heart broken by a thrash,
Truly you are a sweet valentine from the moon!

You are my sweet valentine of my heart,
A valentine of a bird longs to twitter,
A valentine of a starling waits to mimic with charm,
Till the rain of romance quench my hair burned,
Truly you are a sweet valentine from the moon! 

I went to the gardens lawns to search,
But I found none even on the leaf,
Cos you are sublime and sealed unto my veins
To subdue my loneliness into happiness,
Truly you are a sweet valentine from the moon!
