Poetic Prayer #2

Dear God,

These days are trying
and many around us are dying
for senseless reasons
and as we pass the seasons
we continue to sin
and think that we are about to win
but the only champion
is the one heading to Zion
safe in the Father's arm
where no one can harm
raise alarm
because Jesus' love brings calm
it help us not to get caught up
but instead to wise up
and focus on God's way
and continuously pray
and not let the devil sway
our hearts his way
we got a work to do
and as we trod through
the rough times and the pain
let Jesus' love reign
because he did on the cross for all
and he picks us up when we fall
our God, the one who takes us through
refreshes us and gives us live anew!

POEM: No Shame

shame

I've got no shame in my game
cause I know I'm not lame
and while my hair is not tamed
step in my way - you might get maimed
but seriously, I love my name
and I'm not driven by fame
but God knows why I came
so as I keeping burning my flame
Don't think I'm just the same
as I was back in the game
cause I don't live in a picture frame
and I don't play lil kids games

POEM: Top That

BOOM!
I clap
and tap
in rhythm
BANG!
can you hear
the band
as they
play the
sounds of life
CLANG!
as the cymbals
rang
I sang
then jammed
with the music
that never stops
you can't
top
that

Moving forward

It's pet peeves time again. What really riles me up? Anything stupidness does. However, I can't stay peeved for every foolish thing. I have one grey hair and I'm happy with it. I am not trying to get anymore right now!




It's all about learning from mistakes and moving on. As you read this post, you're probably thinking that the ribbon is being unraveled but it's not. You just have to learn to move on. Life is not that serious. It's short and you don't have to try to fit in with the popular crowd or follow the popular creed. Just do you and be happy with your choices. Try to make the best decisions and enjoy the simple things. Appreciate life and love yourself!

POEM: All I need

In my place
at my pace
in this little place
beside a small case
all I ask for is
Peace
a small release
no rice and peas
an unsigned lease
as I head to the east
all I need is
Peace

POEM: About Play

It's not everyday
that you have the most to say
but in some way
you just feel to play
instead of being gray
come what may
you'll have to pray
you have debts to pay
and you carry your tray
but be a ray
of sunshine or a bale of hay
let's sit on the Cay
picks whelks on the bay
and be happy like a Blue Jay

Happy 2025!
