Education Is the Key

They say education is the key. 
A key that can open all closed doors. 
A sharpener to our minds. 
Provider of brighter life and expectations.
	it's like a shining lamp in a dark world
	even better than the shining stars in the sky
Different parts of the world,the key takes us there. 
The key doesn't choose religion,race, tribe, class or where you come from. 
You just see it and take it. 
Grab it with your hands and don't let go. 
Explore all parts of the key.
Understand its richness and wealth.
 	With various  ingredients like maths, languages, sciences, 
geography, engineering among others.
	 It makes you the most intellect in the world. 
Greatest scientist, engineer, doctor, teacher, leader among many. 
	With the key: 
You talk, they listen and understand.
 That knowledge of the key is a weapon. 
A weapon that can slush dragons into pieces.
 	The key is a healer of diseases.
 	A solution provider. 
It aggrandizes unimaginable things never seen before.
 The key is like a drug that never expires.
 The greatest inheritance of a child.
 
To get the key is a process.
 Step by step you learn. 
Never give up when the going gets tough.
 Don't stay down if you can get up.
 Gather all your strength and move forward. 
Wipe out the sweat and tears. 
Don't lose focus keep going.
 With hard work and discipline you will finish the race.
 Sweeter than honey are it's fruits.
		 Who wouldn’t want this key? 
			I ask! 
Go get the key and don’t look back.

Mind Power

its small not to see yet fresh inside
the curly of its skin sweet to see
the touch of its feet sweet to feel
the breath from it nostrils so warm
to kindle the lights of a candle
simple structure and lifestyle
sweet and sincere sound produced
from its heart bounces the love
all the very confused realize the dreams
the chance to focus leaves not a scar
a great mind combined not wise like it
see from above is a kingdom
from below is all we need to have
the silence of its throne is bearable
war can never separate its consciousness
its contagious like a drug in African land
to finish it will kill all we have today
to see its eyes directly brings blindness
all we need is faith to conquer
ask me tomorrow never comes
it lives in its past to survive today

The Broken Twig

Why this day you break
The only productive twig 
The giver of life to many 
A shelter to the birds 
Of different kinds and color 
Not even a tear you wipe 
Your eyes dry like charcoal 
In love you were with it 
All gone never to be 
Not even a seed you protected 
To continue the twig life 
Why think its cursed? 
Yet the best it produces 
Even in dry or wet seasons 
The twig will grow stronger 
In another world. 
A new person will till 
Till fully grown to produce

A Tap In My Shoulder

A tap in my shoulder
With your bare hands 
Soft and tender
Very comforting indeed
A twinkle in my heart
A broad smile in the face
The shiver in the body
Till the tip of the nails
The blood boils 
The heart beats faster
The warmth in the body
Emits a hot sweat
In the cold weather
A new day 
A joyful moment
Glorious indeed
The eyes widen
Like its dark in the night
Mouth agape in wonder
Of laughter or a smile
Side by side 
All new 
In paradise indeed
The freshness of the air
In a smoky place
So sweet to feel
The touch from you hand
The palm so soft
Don't let go
The moment is refreshing
Like water from a well

Love Is Pain

i dwell in the cage of happiness
with no surprise at any moment
with full protection from the gods
nature controls and modifies me
my all happenings are guided
no feelings from within i had
only wen i met the angel to know
full of surprise and emotions in her
a moment with her seemed a second
for the first time i realized myself
all i could do with a blink of an eye
was no longer gone but within
when the moment came to depart
not for any reasons i can recall
not for a word i said depressing
not for the voice i changed to kill
all within i felt pain all over again
to discuss wasn't a problem at all
with strangers i can't really tell
happiness suddenly changed
then it will never be again to say
only hope i  have to reclaim back
all i had is lost never to be found
but only the feelings of love still remains
 in my heart is like a dry well
awaiting for favors from gods
to rain to re transform its beauty
this time i feel and can see
not all that glitters is gold
not all white is snow.
love has no end but pain n pain
