Abena Larteley Poem
Unlocking enslaved brains
Breaking unbreakable chains
How enormous is his humongous Grace
We fail if we perceive success is by virtue of race
Many believe in science
Others have faith in signs
Because of their own experiences
And perhaps life's expectancies
But praise be to the one who created the sun
And gave us His Son
To him be the Glory
Who redeemed us from slavery
It is He whom we ought to trust
For woe unto us if we should rust
How glorious it is to continually hope in his promises
Than cling to life's vanities.

Abena Larteley Poem
Too many faces in one face
Too many happenings in one phase
It's like I've been hit with a mace
Stabbed in the back, no one to embrace
Which is which, corn or maize?
I'm confused, yet amazed
You used to set my heart ablaze
And there was no way I could resist your gaze
I promised to pursue, to chase!
Perhaps it's time I quit the maze
I can no longer bear the hurt, the disgrace...
Tracy, Gracie, Nancy, Even in your case
I couldn't find Grace
It's time I take a new dimension
I refuse to waste space
I'll direct my pace to another
I'll chase another lover
This time, I'll pursue the Lord
My heart is safe with him.
