Happy Marriage

I HAVE BEEN MARRIED FOR FIFTY YEARS,
BUT IT SEEMS I JUST MARRIED LAST YEAR.
FIFTY YEARS MIGHT SEEM LIKE A LONG TIME.
BUT SUMMER NEVER SEEM TO LAST A LONG TIME.
THERE IS NOTHING THAT BRINGS SO MUCH HAPPINESS IN MARRIAGE.
AS THE THINGS YOU DENY YOURSELF FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR MARRIAGE.

NEVER EXPECT YOUR MARRIAGE TO BE ALL ABOUT LOVE.
FOR MANY A MARRIAGE HAVE CRASHED BECAUSE OF THE OTHER LOVER.
A PESKY BUTTERFLY MAY PERCH ON YOUR BEAUTIFUL ROSE.
EVEN THOUGH THE GARDEN IS FULL OF OTHER LONELY ROSES.
THERE ARE MANY THINGS YOU CANNOT CONTROL IN YOUR MARRIAGE.
BUT TRUST IN GOD CAN DO WONDERS FOR YOUR MARRIAGE.


THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A HAPPY MARRIAGE.
BUT THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE HAPPY IN THEIR MARRIAGE.
HAPPINESS HAVE NEVER WON ANY WAR.
IT IS SWEAT AND BLOOD THAT WINS WAR.
THEREFORE  START EVERY DAY WITH A PRAYER TO GOD.
FOR YOU CAN NEVER WIN ANY WAR WITHOUT GOD.

Rainbow

Foolish virtue,
Flying with vultures.
Stupid light,
Shining in darkness.
dirty  pig,
Dancing  on the pit.
Flags of rainbow,
Hoisted in Sodom.

Let Freedom Ring

Let freedom ring for every monkey in Tennessee prison
Let freedom ring for every monkey in Texas prison
Let freedom ring for every monkey in Mississippi prison
Let freedom ring for every monkey in  Alabama prison
One day !!
Black monkeys and white monkeys , chimpanzee and baboons
Shall eat one big ripe banana
Let freedom ring for every monkey in prison

A New Song

when hope flies away
and dark shadows awake.

When night comes
and dreams cease.

when you are alone
and the world is lonely.

look up to the stars
and sing a new song.

Don'T Talk To Me

Don't  talk to me about summer nights and red roses.
about pink butterflies and goosebumps
about candlelight dinners and enchanting dreams
Talk to me about the  cold winter nights.
about the lonely black mother,
and the angry black boy.

Before

Before the devil
comes for you.
Before the hell
screams at you.
Take the bible
and count your sins
