Phuti Lethabo Morifi Poem
Against all odds by Phuti Morifi
Breaking it loose from the toughness
Moving the mountainous stones not slipping trough the rocks
Walking a thorny road barefooted and ignoring the bleeding pain
That’s where it all started
In a small world beneath my breast there is a beat
Everything appear very slow and limited
It seemed useless to keep my faith
it seemed doomed to keep dreaming
But against all odds i am grateful for all that i have
I feel the braveness whenever the world see the ignominy
I feel ease whenever the world see the sadness
I smell the greatest aroma whenever the world smell the smoke
I move whenever the world see me neutral
I look around my grace everyday when i open my eyes
I smile at my reflection every time i see my image
I pause and watch see the solidity in me
i feel the best out of my toughness
I can break it all loose in my quietness
i can break it all loose in special sadness
i can open the darkest cloud with my faith
i can open the locked doors with my believe
I am given the authority to break all loose whenever the world get tough
I am given the authority to believe in what i see and feel within me
i am authorised to fly where ever i want
i am authorised to move whenever i feel
Against all odds nothing can stand before me
Againts all odds nothing can take my keys
Against all odds nothing can stop me
Because i am the manager, the Clothe President
Just say the leader in my life
Against all odds nothing is ever impossible

Phuti Lethabo Morifi Poem
That Life that i missed
Even when I feel the pain I always rejoice in the moment of my sorrowful blessed life thats when that time tick and ticked before i tick.
When I am much more happier I cherish the moment till it melts into darkness
While my heart pain my eyes tearing, my body overloaded with a unrelieved
That’s when i felt my eyes being fill by tears down my chicks drying my the face of my heart, as the sunset,that when i believed the time ticked before i tick.
I started to miss my home,I missed home, I thought of the love and warmth I get when I am home
surrounded by people who love me most. That’s when I miss my mom polishing my back, smearing my face with a lot of oil,holding me on her warm chest,that’s when I remember the days I use to run with my father down the bush,with him carrying me on his shoulders and sometimes I tried to challenge his athlete talent
That’s when I remember the taste, oh the tastes that filled my mouth with juices
Ke re ka gopola bonnyane bjaka sebakeng sa mahloko
ka gopola mothotho wa dipeu tsa nageng,ke ra bo mamupudu,matswaitswai,ditamatisinyana le mabilo. Those days when I was worry free. Ke sehlefala ke sa kgathalle whose watching
Mind you I miss those days.
I remembered the days when I use to refuse to sleep waiting for them to arrive
That’s when I reminisced the memories of my innocent happily days of my life
Panic,Love,Laugh and live and grow and i feel the new beggining.
I felt change, i feel the new prosperity.
Then the darkness perished

Phuti Lethabo Morifi Poem
For it is the action time and it is just now.
The turnaround time is more for one to to step back
As for the nature is now so swelling that the spot must be corrected
For it is the time to sharpen your ox and work with to shape the future
Or generations to come is to suffer our loss
The flops of ours has caused much harm
But let it not compromise the destiny of our generations to come
Now it is just the right to to protect one heart
That the nation shall be freed

Phuti Lethabo Morifi Poem
I inhaled the breath that lifted my soul
I was on the neither part of my life that is kinder lost on the mist of my burden
There comes the smell that my breath appreciated and my heartbeat to the low pulse for a minute
It took me back where i have never been in person though in spirit i reached
To the bottom of my heart i felt the spring that lasted for years
The colourful adore i smell planted in my heart that i cannot refuse to leave the moment passing my side.
The loaded verse in my space get emptied by the roses of my life
That's when the begging of my destiny began and my life became colourful
Like the red rose

Phuti Lethabo Morifi Poem
Too little to soon and here I am
Neither did I know we shall arrive
So short,so recognised noticeable and shining beyond the cloudy clouds.
Did we ever choose this day or it suddenly choose us?
In such a short notice here I am sharing with my demons.
Digging from the same pot towards the same goal of accomplishing our heart desire.
On Tuesday the 14 in such a short notice,a sudden moment was chosen that I shall accomplish by the hands of my enemy????After all we ought to keep them closer.

Phuti Lethabo Morifi Poem
Where are the footprints of my origins
Little did i know who i am,was and where am i about
For i myself just know my surrounding and just only
All i can remember is being called by a name
For i then have no choice but to turn my head when i hear the sound of "my name"
For me it is just magic,do i even know the meaning of magic or the magic meaning or i am just writing what the magic controls me to do.
Di i know where the human race began?The language formation and the history of it all did i know?
Did i know i have foot and finger print that are kept for my identity?
