A Home Too Far

Here again, we are hopefully looking for a route 
Leading to a  place believed to be our root
A place where we were free before taken to be slaves

All we hope was to be free from their oppressive sleeves
Searching the earth to find our home, was the only hope
We knew, though we were at the verge of discovering our home

But the clues were very hard  and dark to see us through
Lighting candles in the forest to see a real path to the home
That we cherish , was the only skill we have to get us through

The woods, yet still it was way too hard and dark to get us home
Letting go, was not an answer, but reaching our goal was better
And it was the only the only thing that matters

Glowing In Grace

Shining are the stars, 
Shooting in the sky
Staring is the Moon,
Standing like one who mourns

Spinning is the Sun,
Speeding as a lost son
Sparkling is a red rose,
Smelling in one’s nose

Swimming is a fish,
Shaking in a cage
Swelling is my boss,
Shivering in  an old bus

Shooting is an arrow,
Showing in a road that is narrow
Singing are the nosy birds,
Selling their songs just to have bread

Snoring is one fat pig,
Sleeping as if he’s not big

Hopeless Hustle

Working at late hours,
Seeing ugly owls,
Yet still the paid isn't ours

After all of the hustle
And so much bustle,
Our bowls are still empty

Even if there's a meal,
Hmm, it must be salty
All that we pray is to be heal

From the hash-ness of poverty
And  to have our own property
The hash calling of our boss,

Is the same as an old bus
Even if he doesn't call U at all,
Just do something , after all
You'll still be call

Sweet Aroma of Success

Whenever my skin creeps I can just retrospect on the rich-man's speech About his way to success

At times I imagined myself sitting in a Palace like a prince who controls a Whole kingdom

Oh even when I recount on his path to success this makes me anxious
About being the master of my own destiny
 
Without fear I see myself controlling Kings, queens,princes and princesses
But sadly it's just an imagination

Success has a beauty called test Which tests anyone who wants to be It's beholder with its steps

Everyone dreams of attaining success not knowing it is a series of steps that entail a difficult process

Success can be experienced
If there's a plan to unravel its tough Steps

Perhaps thinking as a successful man
Makes you realize that you can obtain Success

From Love To Lost

Thinking that you are the girl made of red,
Hoping you could change my wrong to right,
But you was the one who makes me wept

Many times I was called Mandingo-drum
But I didnt listen, and I was so dumb
Though, I didnt take heed to their words,
Yet you still make me felt so worst

Not a day you weren't my first thought,
But, it was futile, because there's no trust
Thinking that the pain l felt was from afar

But you gladly showed it to me that it wasn't far
Yet still I showed you love full of weep
But, you saw it very far to reach your so called beep

Listening to the voices that say one day my love will reap
Was the only thing I could do to give me peace of mind
But you couldn't mind if l go mad, after all you wasn't mine

I thought by showing you love could make you see only red
But sadly to you, I am way too dead

Christmas Gists

All is here with its tease,
The coming of beautiful  trees
With light of bright  rainbow  colors,
Standing tall in the  hearts of others.

Oh! those lovely nozy seasonal flies,
Which buzz like a melody of hashless Cries
Bringing joy in the hearts of kids 
Making them think about gifts
Is what this great day really gives

The breeze of this event brings jubilant spirited heart 
In the stone heart 
Of anyone, percifing their anguish heart

Hmm I can't forget about those times that I used to danced As a kid in my home town
As a means to cheer the trouble hearts like a clown

With huge imaginations, kids shared amazing stories 
Sitting in cool chairs 
About the wonderful Christmas 

Skipping, dancing and singing under a cool weather
Is me holding a Christmas ledger

Oh! yes like Crantoranto lecturing Spondee about his African Ring,
Pazanh suit and native slippers

What a very joyful day for kids?
Even we adult still missed celebrating Christmas as a kid
Oh! Christmas, what a blessed day for kids?

Listening to the voices that say one day my love will reap,
Was the only thing I could do to give me peace of mind

But you didn't mind if I go mad, after all you wasn't mine
I thought by showing you love could make you see only red

Valarie, My Val

Hi Valarie, whenever I see your photo in my gallery
I remember your voice, eyes, smile and also your tone That sounds flattery

Whenever you gaze into my eyes, my world goes mute
At times, when I go blank of inspiration, you serve as My Muse

Every sixty seconds, you are here pounding continuously in My heart
Whenever I was cold, you served as my personal fire Hearth 

Every single beat of my heart knows how to identify the Letter V
Even the saliva in my mouth knows that your name Ends With E

If loving you is a mistake, then I don't want to get Anything Right
Because you are the only mistake I want
The one I won't dare to get 

Loving you till the end, and hoping you change from Val To Wife
