Springtime

Spring is in the air
Love is everywhere
I see a girl walking in the street
My heart skips a beat

On the fence sits a lonely dove
She is waiting for love
She spots another dove
And she knows it’s time for love.

There is no time for dating
So, they start with their mating
He takes no chances
He starts with his love dances

Round and round he dances
No time for taking chances
Very soon they start mating
Because there is no time for dating.

All in a day

It’s all in a day
It’s the only way
Living day by day
They capture the way

Nowhere to go
Life is so slow
Live today
Die today

Death on the street
To live this way is no treat
They live on the street
With disgust they meet

At 14 they kill
that is a bitter pill
They don ‘t care if they spill
Your blood at will.

In the street
They will meet
To kill on the street
Is what they need

To Rape kill and Mame
To them it’s all the same.
If they don’t rape kill and Mame
To them it will be a shame

They will be kicked out by their own
They will die all alone
In a field lying on their back
Dead in a burnt-out shack.

Walk Away

For the life of me I do not understand
Why people cannot lend a hand
To children who are being abused
And children who are being used

Being abused by a grown up
After lying all day in the pub
At home abusing his own
she won’t let out a moan

Whenever they are alone
To nobody this is known
At age 10 she lost her virginity
Also her dignity

Age 14 now
And she made a vow
He will pay
He will have his day

With his life he will pay
Death is the only way.
The baby in her she will abort
Even if she must go to court

One day they were alone at home
He feels he is on the thrown
In ten minutes, he will be slain
Killed with little pain.

He was found in her bed
The bed turned red as he bled
Quietly she walks away
She won’t ever again be the prey.

Cape Flats - 1

So, maybe you can tell
Heaven from hell,
blue skies from rain,
a day full of pain.

Can you trade a walk in the park
for a glimpse of the dark?
We are the captured souls, like fish in bowls.
Do you want to exchange, from living in chains?

Beating around the bush is not of any use, 
in the blink of an eye, you will die.
Life in the Cape Flats
has been taken over by brats.

They will rape, kill and maim.
even though they don’t know your name.
Every gang has a name,
they also have no shame.

People here live in fear.
There is always some parent who sheds a tear.
Young girls falling pregnant
from boys who will not leave a remnant.

A child heavily pregnant with a child
has been left alone like an animal in the wild.
The boyfriend is long gone
making a call to another one.

Parents going to work, trying to make a living
leave their kids at home in a life so unforgiving.
Kids must look after themselves,
even though the oldest is only 12.

Most households live a life of struggle.
That is a life so radical.
The gangs rule the street.
To them, somebody must bleed.

The community forms groups
but everybody has their moves.
The gangs make them fearful.
If they cross the gangs, they will soon be tearful.

The gangs of the Cape Flats
are like wolves in a pack.
If you cross them at your own risk,
you will end up on their hit list.

The gangs have no regard for the law.
To them, the law is a flaw.
Drugs rule their lives.
They will do anything to survive.

The Cape Flats has become a hive of activity.
If you are not careful, here you’ll meet your destiny.
Known for the activity of many gangs.
The shots fired, bang, bang, bang.

Innocent people run away.
There is no way they would want to stay.
They have no chance of leaving.
On the Cape flats, their lives have little meaning.

Five minutes

Anxiously he waits for his wife
She was supposed to be home at five
He needs to teach her a lesson
He knows she will after this session

five minutes later, she opens the door
Without greeting he hits her to the floor
He promises tonight he will give her a hiding
Never mind the pleading

He beats her face to a pulp
Bleeding from the scalp
He shows no sign of stopping
and she cannot stop sobbing

He starts kicking her
She is full of fear
She tries to get up
She slips in her own blood

All afternoon he had been drinking
Beating her without blinking
Eventually he relents
Now he can boast to his friends.

He is the boss in his house
A complete madhouse
The sad part is she does not report him
He sits on the couch and hums a hymn.

Mommys Boy

What makes you kill a little boy
His only joy is his toy
At 5 he is still a baby
And that’s no maybe

A gang member shot him in the head. 
He has been left in the street for dead
Was not even in school
Shot in the head by a fool
                                  
This is all he ever did everyday
to eat his breakfast and play
Not a care in his life and mind
yet he was treated very unkind

Never will he play with his toy
the gang came and took the boy
he was killed by a grown man
The reason, because he can

Two of Us

In the park she sits on the bench
Her man is a romantic, not French
They met at a get together
Now they bonded forever.

After 2 decades they are still in love
Although life has treated them rough
Many years of hell
They have so much to tell

After many years they are still in love
They suit each other like a glove.
Their love for one another
Makes them adore each other.

Kids all grown up and gone
Now they live alone
It is like living on a thrown
Now that they are alone

She sees him walking down the street
On him she will never cheat
Many years ago, she made a vow
In life with him she will plough

Their future looks bright
They are now living in the light

He sees her, the prettiest girl
To him she is his Pearl
A kiss on the lips
And into his grip, she slips

At the end of the day
Going home is the only way
To be with his wife
Whom he will love all his life

Lying next to her in bed
He lays and strokes her head
Lying next to her
He feels like a connoisseur.
                                                                            ©™ AC the Poet

Child in time

A parent is shunned by a child
That is a loss to put it mild
For the parent the suffering remains
Like water down drains

Living with pain
For the parent the pain will remain
The parents have done nothing wrong
The child feels very strong

Decades of giving and loving
To the child this means nothing
All the parents ask for is love
that has gone out the window like a dove. 

A parent’s fear
Is not having his children near
At night sheading a tear
Year after year

Not sharing in the child’s joy
Because the child gets annoyed
The parents live on the sideline
for the child the parents will never shine

(Dedicated to my Daughter, with endless love)

Moonshine

Today the sun is shining
Tonite there will be a bad moon rising
It is killing season
As usual for no reason

One member split on one of their own 
They going to catch him and take him down
They going to take him down to the river
And remove his liver.

As the member shakes and shiver
He thinks about the river
A famous place to kill a member
That he can clearly remember

He remembers the begging for a life
Against the victims neck a big knife
He can’t avoid the outcome
In the gang’s eyes he is scum

Now the moon is rising
And the gang is full of despising
He knows they going to cut him down to size
As he cries

How can he convince them
To spare him
The gang catches up with him
His future looks very grim.

He beg’s to be forgiven
But the gang is driven
They want to see his death
See him take his last breath

The next day he is found
Hands and feet bound
Laying on the ground
His liver could not be found.

Love all around

Love abound 
I feel it all around
Love is in the air
Life is a love affair

I am surrounded by my love all day
Living like it’s the only way
Let’s dance off the floor
Dancing out the door

Love is on our side
Love we won’t hide
Love won’t fill me with pride
But I will bring my side

You fit me like a glove
Like two doves in love
I will dance around you like a dove
All day long showing my love.

Keeping her happy my way
That is what I am going to do every day
For me it’s a way of life
That’s what I want for my wife.

Can’t bear the thought of being without my wife
She is completely and totally my whole life
The best place ai night 
Is to sleep next to her, tight.

I feel love around
Let love abound
Let love be the motto in life
And there will be no shortage of love in your life.
