At the corner of
the room I see you,
I see your heart
fluttering like a
butterfly looking for
flowers to drink on
the juice of the nectar.
Hungry and dashing
here and there
collecting and competing
with the honey bees.
Both at work on same thing
but different purpose.
With so much love they work,
sensitive and not hurting
the flowers.
Unwittingly triggered pollination,
with love visiting homes and
gardens with their presence.
Gently without complaining,
they both share same flower
without striving to ****
themselves over nothing.
There's enough abundance
distributed all over.
Beautiful as it
unfolds to reveal
the secrets of life in nature
abundantly displayed
in full supply.
Let the heart follow
the one it's attracted to
and fully enjoy every
single moment as
if it's the last.

My word,
My life,
my heart,
my being,
my world,
Intertwined,
Interwoven,
knit together,
equally yoked,
with a blast of
subtle energy
Saturates my
whole being,
beautifully blended
with the whole nature,
contained in one place,
resonates in synergy.
Is it not necessary and
better to do away
with anything that makes
you feel so bad.
Life is even too short
to waste on
unprofitable issues.
The whole
universe are yours,
above and below.
All the elements,
earth,
water,
fire,
air,  
wood,
metal,
salt,
sulphur,
copper,
silver,
gold,
stars,
moon,
sun,
Mercury,
Venus,
Mars,
Jupiter,
Saturn,
Uranus
Neptune,
Pluto.
Sings in unison,
play their flute,
beat their drums,
just to please you.
The elementals,
fairies,
elf's,
moving daily,
weaving with grace,
blissfully sharing,
distributing with enthusiasm,
working tirelessly just for you.
You are a unique masterpiece created
to show forth the beauty of God's glory.

Sad beautiful truth
we must confront.
Love has wings,
flies away when
not nurtured and
if iniquity wraps
the heart.
Love with all
your heart at
this present moment,
before your morning
turn into night.
Love stays
only when your
ego dies.
It will embrace
your heart,
only if you can
genuinely forgive
yourself and the
one you hurt.
Love kills the
pride of self
with its light,
piercing softly through
the darkness of
the soul.
Softly it binds the
two hearts together.
Nothing can be
more beautifully gracious
than hope uniting
two in love
making them one.

I welcomed you
yesterday as you
lay besides me
as my covering.
My heart this morning
sings along side
the morning birds,
songs of love
to wake you up.
As you shine
beautiful soul,
my heart is glad.
Smile for me
as the morning sun.
Because of you
the world smiles
back at me.
Here is a
good thing,
the future is bright.
Hope and your ideal
makes the difference.
Wait for tomorrow,
your sun want
to see your
beautiful face.
As I turned
to look back,
only to find out
that today is
yesterday's tomorrow.

And it began
just like that,
free from any pressure,
just introduction and
our friendship bloomed
like a rose flower.
Yes, you it is,
Beautiful you,  
with a beautiful
alluring smile,
stolen as it were
as if from an Angel,
passionately exquisite,
she is so polished
that I have never
heard her made
a Faux pas.
She is Immaculately
beautiful.
Her beauty is supreme.
How could my
rivals not see it,
they were blinded
by her glittering
and shimmering beauty,
dazzled by its pureness,
a purity adorned with grace.
I am touched
by her decency,
moved to tears
by her softness,
with words watered
down to the tiniest detail,
beautiful to the core.
Her heart was pierced
and bleed out of any
imperfections within
but unwittingly configured,
prepared and upgraded.
We are now interwoven
and blended together in
synergy to each other
to love deeply.
Certainly heaven will
help us through this
stormy waters of life.

Beauty is found
everywhere in all
created things in nature.

Even where the
surf searches the
sand for symbols.

Have you ever
found the unknown
lonely footprints left
at a quiet beach.

Even down the
dark places deep
in the ocean where
all kinds of beautiful
exotic creatures known
and unknown plays.

Unperturbed by the
presence or
pressures of man.

Check out the
beauty at plains
of a running brook.

Meandering and flowing
through the meadow
with the hills and
the mountains beyond.

Heard across the street
from a high castle,
the light little footsteps
and the laughter
of a child running
through the quiet path.

Look up in the sky
at night and behold
the handcraft of
the Almighty displaying
gracefully with stunning view.

What can i say
of the animals
in the wild with
the exotic flowers
in their lonely enclave.

Displaying their loveliness
hidden away,
living happily and
quietly in
their habitat.

Have you ever
taken time to see
how the light
of the sun shines.

As if smiling
to greet you
first thing at dawn.

How lovely and
radiantly beautiful all
creation including man
turned out to be.

Simplicity is so simple that
our mind are not well informed
in it's simple formation.
Simplicity is the ultimate
form of sophistication.
In it there are complexities
and it's quite interwoven.
Beautiful in its form.
It shows us the beauty of
creation telling its own stories
with peculiar history.
Nature is so deep and
captivatingly beautiful.
Intriguing in its own way
and profoundly awesome.
It's amazing how much of
it we really know.
Its so confounding how
many people really comprehends
the principle back of it.
In simplicity nature speaks.
Spirals of things visible are
so complex that it's configuration
and formulas are of simple nature,
only to be deciphered by a simple mind.
The mind of man is sophisticated
and complex but simple.
It's rhythm pulsates within the
intricate formation of the spirit behind it
making it one of the most simple
but not so understood things of nature.
Like a jigsaw puzzle it's sophisticated
complexity is made simple by a sound mind.
The mind has to be disciplined
to decode it's hidden ciphers.

Endure your struggles
they are your strength,
divinely arranged to show
and teach you how to
reach your blessings.
You must learn how to
get past these life lessons.
To enjoy the value and
beauty of the rose your
hands must be pierced
by its torn.
It is only when hurt by the
torn of the rose that you
know and value the
tenderness of its petal.
To get close to the
honeycomb for the
taste of honey,
you must experience
the pains from the bee sting.
Inner beauty comes only
when the heart is purified
by the harsh realities
experienced from
the goriest encounters of life.
The scar left is
the assured sign and
reminder that you survived.
Purity of purpose is reposed
to make our lives right.
Here you will discover an
uncharted paradise with
a terrifying threat beyond
your imagination.
There is something so
dangerous in true beauty.
It's hidden treasures are only
revealed in the heart.

Life is like
an egg,
simple and
extraordinarily
beautiful.
But first ask
yourself what gain
has living in
the past
brought you.
Except for the
euphoria or
pain and anxiety
it brings.
All are illusions.
Sometimes you
understand without
knowing and sometimes
you just know
without understanding.
All depends on
the platform of
individual comprehension.
In this present moment,
be awakened.
Waisting a lot
of time catching
your breath from
struggles of the past,
and anticipating of
the future you
have not previously
prepared for,
instead of living
fully in the
present moment.
There is no
right or wrong
perception,
both are alright.
It is still
your choice.
Life has an
explanation for existence,
that's the whole
mystery buried in
the present moment.
Like a dream,
it becomes elusive
when you can't
decipher or find
it operational in
your present moment.

Death is just the taking away
of the gross material that
enshrouds and hides
the life essence that is you,
setting you free from your
temporary cocoon that has become
your mortal prison.
In your freedom,
You will find there's no death.
Live your life fully with gladness.
Be aware of your awesomeness
and make a mark with your life.
Follow the path of righteousness.
Realise that you are nothing more
than a sojourner on earth.
Enter into each day with
joyful tenderness in your heart.
Take whatever comes to you,
either good or bad as it is
without much ado,
for they come to make up
the textures of your life.
Be strong and courageous
Remain calm in the face of adversities.
Be unshakable,
for all you encountered and achieved
is for a while and for a purpose,
to make your life a worthy one.
Do not for any reason cause anyone
to weep or go through an unnecessary harrowing experience because of you.
Live wherever life places you in harmony
with those in your sphere
knowing you are there to serve.
Be aware of what will be a source of
your future annoyance,
and with wisdom deal with it
or completely avoid it.
Remember who you are always.
Do the right things.

Henceforth may you
find favor with men
and the gods.
May the road
before you open
to fulfill your secret
desired dream and destiny.
May your destination
hasten towards you.
May the valley
lift its head
to become a pass
over a difficult
path for you.
Even the mountains
will level up
so it becomes
easier to cross.
The desert will
become habitable and
supply your needs.
The heavens will
open the door
to the
source of bounty.
Even the earth
shall ***** out all
confisticated possessions
belonging to you.
The wind shall
blow away hardships
and clear the
way for you.
The rainfall shall
indeed wash away
all filthiness and
restore your former
glory.
You shall never
be thirsty or
hungry ever again.
Laughter shall fill
your mouth and
you will sing
a new song.
There is such
a beautiful place
between the mountains
and the rivers
that is suitable
for all the lovers.
May it bring
solace and comfort you.
May its fruits
nurture you and
heal you.
Your household
shall be the
abode of the
Angels.
All beings shall
bear witness that
you are indeed the  
beloved of God.
Shalom.

I know that
love is a
beautiful thing
and it's catching
up on me.
I really miss
the feeling of
the heart in love.
And I felt
the flame of love
from the deepest
part of my soul.
My heart beats
so fast with
the systematic rhythm
of the symphony
of the spirit.
The rhapsody of
which engulfed
my soul powerfully
touched my heart
so beautifully and
left me speechless.
This is all
my soul wants
and it is enough
because it is everything.
Can anything be
as sweet and
lovely as a
cool hearty smile
of a loved one,
on a sunny afternoon.
You just have
to see with me
that a man
with a beard
looks like a king
and love is
all it takes to
have him by
your side.
Make it right
and enjoy yourself
in his kingdom.

Because of you,
I can say what's
on my mind,
laugh at myself
and put a smile
on a sad face.
I do the
impossible things
with the
right mind set.
Because of you,
I became better.
Your inspiration
motivates and propels
me beyond the limits.
Because of you
I became a superman
doing all kinds of
amazing and supernatural
tremendously incredible
great things with
giant strides.  
Because of you
i can climb
all the hills
and mountains like
the Spiderman.
Because you are
by my side I
became more than
a conquerer.
Positivity became
my ally and
generates me to
a spiritual high.
Because of you,
I know everything
is working the
way they should.
And for that
my heart is so grateful.

Absolutely no-thing,
people, places, experiences
is responsible for
my happiness,freedom
and peace within me.
If you need
to swear before
people believe you,
you lack integrity.
and have no dignity.
Salt maintains its
integrity amidst pollution.
Have you seen
where a salt
buyer demands to
taste it before buying,
no,because salt
has proved its
integrity over the time.
You don't need
to shout for
you to be heard.
People keep quiet
to listen to
intelligent people.
You can because
you matter.
It is clear
that the desire
and the ardor
here do not
do nothing.
No one can
tell you what
brings to the energy,
the flamboyance and
the manifestation
of the spirit,  
except the only
one who has
supernaturally received
the gift of
seeing it and of it.

Tear drops on
my rose flower
are changing colour
while dropping
on the table
and flowing into
my silver cup,
touching my lips,
transformed it into
something uniquely
unimaginable to
quicken the heart
and cause it
to beat faster.
I can hear
the subtle messages
of your heartbeat .
How can you
attract the bees
on your flowers
and then ****
them for *******
the nectar from
different flavors.
To love the
wrong person
is dreadfully depressing,
for you will
dine with the ants,
it is a terrible
curse or a spell,
that may not
be broken.
It is the
closest you can
be to an
earthquake.
I conjure now,
you will never
be jinxed.

What my heart
sees is the
beauty in you.

And my eyes
beheld the reflection
and silhouette of
your essence.

To feel you
is what my
heart desires.

The universe shrinks
before my eyes
becoming the ions drops
in eternity binding
the feminine shape
of you.

This happens when
two worlds collides.

There's no breath
except the breathe
of you.

There's no air
except the power
of the wind.

There's no thirst
except for the
taste of water.

There's no light
except the sparkle
of the sun.

There's no moonlight
or the twinkling stars
except the brightness
of your soul.

There's no soul
except the spirit
inhabits the body.

There's no life
except the
quickening spirit.

With the light
in your eyes
and the sun
in your smile,
you shine and
radiates beautifully.

And now
because of love,
our lives merged
becoming one.

Easy to please,
not really,
hard nut to crack,
I think so.
You cannot please
anyone ever,
even yourself.
Only your best
you can do.
To be perfect is a form
of mental illness,
it drives one crazy,
even those seeking it
and the ones you want
to please can testify.
Perfection is an ideal
we all will want to attain,
but to merely assume
perfection is to cease ones
advancement towards it.
Error as an opposite pole to
perfection has perhaps a value,
it may cause you the need for
further future personal
development.
Such an error has cost me a tear.
It has taught me such
a great lesson.
A lesson very regrettable.
Simplicity is the only way out
of that error.
Easy does it.
Not all who wanders are lost.
You can command nature
only by obeying her.
It yields to the one with
an ear to the ground,
and leads such a one to
the higher ground.
Everything seems clearer
and easier.
Besides can you really be perfect
and without errors?
That's the beauty and essence
of our make up.
So before you judge me,
make sure you are perfect,
or that perfection you seldom
possess will exclude you,
because you are not perfect.

The sign of promise made,
Appear first in the morning sky.
The Rainbow smiling down at me,
While it is still drizzling,
With a flicker of the morning sun,
While Saturn sits watching and smiling.
The abstinence about to end,
My heart desire has been answered.
With this assurance,
I know it can only get better.
The cosmic law fulfills all things,
above and below,
mundane and spiritual.
The struggle is now settled,
peace now reigns,
supremacy of the Almighty is here.
His power overrules all existing powers.
The rainbow smiling  down at me,
as I look up under the drizzling rain,
with the subtle morning sun as a witness.
Behold the Rainbow.

I saw her for the first time,
as she steps out,
My heart skipped a bit
Like the very first
time I heard her voice.
There is something so familiar
about our meeting,
about her presence.
As if we have done that before-
a déjà vu.
She smiled and came up to
meet me and my heart raced.
She is truly beautiful,
heavens gift with
an alluring beauty so striking,
Passionately exquisite,
stolen as it were from an Angel.
Everything about her is beautiful.
She is splendour of her kind,
A gift of heaven to me.
My heart calls you to come forward
and surrender,
this love is my
garland of flowers for you.
Now come beloved,
With grandeur,
make my heart your dwelling place.

Will you be mine,
my love,
my friendly lover
and my most
loveliest friend.
Will you be mine,
my candy crush.
A love that
will never die,
a love to
be desired always,
my darling dear.
Will you be mine.
My heart is
waiting for your
entrance into this
place of love.
Come quickly,
my beautiful one.
This place of love
is prepared for you
my precious one.
The sound you
heard is my heart,
full of joy,
beating the drum of
love just for you.
Will you dance
with me my love.
I didn't set
a trap in
my heart as
a cage just
to catch you,
whip you or
make you cry
but i decorated
this heart with
beautiful garland
of flowers and
so much love
in it to
accommodate and
love you.
Accept my kind
offering with love.
Will you be mine,
my love.

When you witnessed
and survived war,
seen villages destroyed,
lots of family
members dead,
lost the people
you love
and care about.
You know a
part of you
died with them,
and you will never
be the same,
then you will
understand why
it is good
to seek peace.
You will understand
diplomacy.
You will negotiate
with the assumed
enemy to find
the right way
out of the situation.
You will never
do anything that
will cause your
people to go
through unnecessary
harrowing experience
and nightmare or
cause the annihilation
of your tribe and
communities and children,
women and the elderly.
You will respect
and value the
dignity of your
people's lives and interests.
You will learn
tolerance and discipline
to deal with
the most difficult
and complex people.
Be more tolerant
in handling difficult
situations.
You will be
convinced and know
that war is not
just the solution
or the answer
to any problem.

Oh be quiet,
and listen,
did you hear
the steps of tiptoe,
like someone just
entered my inner space.
Be quiet now,
I bet you didn't hear
the whispers of my muse.
Generous words he says to
calm the shattered nerves
of my restless soul.
Like the gratifying
sweet soothing wine,
an elixir to heal
your brokenness.
Like the mouth
watering flavor of
a rare nacter
in a beautiful gold chalice
trimmed with silver.
Like a warm chocolate
dripping from a lovers mouth.
Like the aroma
of ylang ylang and
lavender oil on a lovers body
seducing your senses,
so are the sweet words
of my muse whispering
in my ears.
Dripping like thick juice
from a honey comb
into the mouth
of a ready heart.
The words making magic
in my mind as
I write them down
in my parchment
for you to read.
Can you hear
the muse whispering
as he steps out
of the sunset on
a spiders web waiting
to ride the moon.

Be still,
you can hear it,
the voice within
the cloud and
the firmament,
as it speaks
to the heartbeat
within your soul.
Listen to your heart,
listen to the
inner voice within
your soul.
Listen to the music
of the flute
playing within your soul.
Listen calmly to
the wisdom of
the words from the spirit.
What do you hear,
little grasshopper.
Do you hear
the flutter of the butterfly
or do you hear
the rhythms of
your heartbeat.
Do you hear
the desonance of
a broken string
or the healing flow
of the symphony orchestra.
Did you hear
the flapping of
the wings of the song bird.
Did you hear
the voice within the wind.
Be quiet,
be still and
you can hear
the laughter of
the one within
the ocean waves.
Listen,
even the stars
whispers words of love
to the heart
that can hear it.
Even the rose flower
sings as it opens up
to share its fragrance
to greet the morning sun.
Listen,just listen.

Things unspeakable,
like a river meandering,
surge in my soul,
calls out to me,
inspires my mind with
intriguing force.
Afflatus of the cosmic  
impressed with love
enough to be true
caressed my whole
being with power
to dare to do
the impossible.
This impression of
what is inside
my being cannot
be fathomed.
The beauty of the
spirit engulfed
my soul.
Nurtured by grace
and infinite power,
emboldened by
the influence
of love divine to
heal the afflicted.
And now I possessed
the dynamic incredible
unction to influence
and affect my world.
All these are possible
because of grace.
More grace has
been given to excel.
Be thankful and receive it.
Rejoice and be grateful for
the glorious treasures available.
When grace speaks
qualifications dies.

In this life,
you cannot have
both world's,
no it can't be done.
You choose one,
either right or wrong,
you win or you lose,
you die or you live,
you either keep on
keeping on,
or you keep on living
on the ground floor.
Both cannot merge.
But another hidden way
belongs to those who
finds the middle path
between the extremes,
they will always come out
victorious for such is
the beginning of a glorious
life free of the perilous
ways in the world.
No mediocrity,
only a higher life above the
ordinary full of incessant
activities with an extraordinary
lifestyle.
Is it possible?
Affirmatively yes,
it is possible.
Pesky lifestyle of others must
be tolerated or be avoided
to win your battle of self.
With enormous gratitude,
live your life amongst others
with joyful tenderness.
And when you win
enough of your battle,
then humanity will blend with
your vision for they are looking
out for such a one in their midst.
Be that fellow who has

I know the feeling experienced,
when everything crumbles
before you without warning
because you were not paying
attention or prepared for the
pressures of the pesky people
who contends with you to mess
up what took you a lifetime to build.
Everything crashes and tumbles
before you just like that.
Starting all over again is like being
born again in a world of uncertainty
full of intriguingly mesmerizing awe
and revulsion.
Where do you begin from here,
how can this happen to you,
you wonder how much time you have
left to get things done all over again.
Don't worry about it,
just begin from the beginning.
Pick up the crumbs,
the left over and the pieces of the bricks
and pebbles thrown at you to forge again
the blue print with resilient
attitude to create the masterpiece
that will guarantee you a unique
spot in the world that stands you out
powerfully into the spotlight.
Unbeatable and a valued and
treasured friend in the world.

Beyond the far side
over the hills
and the mountains,
across the river bank
and the ocean,
within the cool breeze
of the sea,
at the heart of
all seasons of
ages long gone
and the one to come,
the firmament holds
the secrets of
creation and the ancients
because it has
seen it all.
The sun and
the moon,
the stars of the
galaxy are the
true witnesses to
how man evolved
to become what
they are now.
But their infinite
loveliness are beyond
comprehension.
All the deep
dark secrets absorbed
are hidden and
pulsates within
their heart beat
Unimaginable and
intriguing are the
fabrics woven
interchangeably to
form whatever it is
that made up
the intricate complex
and textures of our lives.
Amazing and glorious
are the beauty
of their breathtaking
presence.
Delicately and beautifully,
yet without threats
they protectively
wrapped us in
their infinite loveliness.

Never wait for

Open your eyes
and you will
see the answer.
Look again with
the eyes of
your heart but
deeper beyond
the surface.
Be still and
view as if from

deceptive and
so confusing.
What you see
with optical eyes
are actually illusions
and not quite
usually true.
For the heart
knows what is
in the mind
of the spirit

revealed but yet
not too open.
Until you seek
with a sincere
heart it is still
not yours.
You must with
effortless effort,
completely yield
yourself in surrender
to it's biding.
There is a sacrifice,
to be paid,
a perfect one,
the one that
empties and drains
the soul in need,
but certainly and
fortunately it has
been paid and
eternally you are
justified and redeemed.
Because you overcame,
you are now,
the freed forever.

Black Friday,
the life of
stolen essence.
Indeed it makes
me sad every
November of
every year when
they celebrate
their conquest
and supremacy,
******* Africans in the
mud and spit on our
beautiful ebony face,
yet we joined
them in celebrating it.
Have we ever
told our children
to understand
this story filled
with the sad history
of our ancestors
captured and taken to
shores unexpectedly,
forced and unwilling,
in chains and in pains.
Humiliated and abused,
dehumanize and molested,
hungry and dehydrated
through this unnecessary
harrowing nightmare of
their journey to this
unknown cold world
where even the weather
was unkind to them.
Their suffering was
unnecessary.
Death awaits on that ship
and on the ocean
and in that creepy place
unknown to them.
So many unfortunate
ones died in the
hands of their captors
and others died
because of illness and
others sold and resold.
Unspeakable atrocities
follow them everywhere.
Oral traditions is our weapon,
have we not all jettison such.
Do we read history,  
do we know enough
as to be able
to repeat to our kids.
Is the black
Friday not cursed.
They rejoiced and
pride themselves
over making much
merchandise over us
with no regrets.
They enriched
themselves over
our sweat and left us
impoverished in chains.
Who can beat into
us some right
senses to think.
We are not and
no longer in chains
but our minds are
still enslaved.

Most people definitely
lived a genteel lifestyle
in a blissful manner.
Love this beautiful life.
With each day you can
find the balance of the
rhythm of passage of
your life within the circle
of the activities around you.
Serenity and peace is
the only guide to a
blissful lifestyle.
Always thrive but
never struggle,
for everything will come
to you with time.
Your deepest desire will
attract your own good.
Your destiny has been
planned, prearranged,
mapped out and designed
for only you.
Your footsteps are ordered.
The part you have chosen
is a mysterious one and
complex in nature.
Each day brings the best
part of all our struggles
to make up the textures
of your lives.
In pursuit of your own personal
happiness individually is the
purpose of your being
here on earth.
Fill up all the gaps,
right or wrong,
head or tail,
you must have at least
done your best work.
Always remember that
the ocean can never be filled
or satisfied with any amount
of water you pour into it.
Let your effort and your part
done be enough.

You are not
a butterfly but
it seems you
move like one.
The way you
flutter about tells
stories about you.
Don't you ever
keep still for
a moment.
Joyfully you
roam all around
looking for where
to perch.
Even in your
rest you still move.
Your heart rovers
about thinking of
what to do and
where next to be.
But you love
the flowers
that blooms and
blossom in the open.
You love nectar
from each different
kinds of flowers
in the orchard.
Your life is
full of energy
pulsating with subtle
expression of beauty.
I can see how
colourful your
world has become.
Beauty is
wrought in you.
Gentle and fragile
but elegant and lovely.
Minding your business,
you are very dutiful
and like the butterfly,
that pollinates the
flowers with a touch,
you transform every
life in your sphere.
There's no idle
moment in you.
You understand that
each moment has
a purpose in creation.

Bouncing back
from rejection has
a way of
affecting us.
The pain is
a lot like
physical pain,
we feel the
pain so deeply,
its heart wrenching.
This is how
perfectionism fails us.
It's best to
celebrate the little
wins and imperfect
moments alongside
the big successes
to combat our
fear of failure.
We all have
an area,
closet,
shelf or
drawer that
remains a mess,
despite our
best efforts.
Hiding behind the
scenes of our
closest is a
terrible idea.
Take a walk,
go for that
long swim,
be creative,
take a new class.
Spend time with
nature and do
some gardening,
until your heart
is ready for
someone new

The breathe of
the immortal flows
in me and
vitalise the royal blood
in my being.
My spirit is
ever so young.
I have a
sober and
quiet mind.
With a humbled
and grateful heart
i come to you.
Your presence
comforts me.
You formed me
solely from the
space dust that
fell on the earth.
I came from
above and now live
below on earth.
I am the man
of heaven and
of earth.
I watched the
sunrise at dawn
and the sunset
at dusk.
I can be anything
i want to be
because of the
power that works
in me.

Don't be lost
in another persons
dream of you.
The only person
i ever lost
and needed back
was myself.
I am lost
but now i
found me again.
I've been
wandering around
myself for a
while and thought
it was a
tree until i
looked up and
saw my face
and my eyes,
never really
realized i am
actually here
within myself.
I'm never really
lost but only
disappeared from
myself a moment.
Am i ever
so glad
to be right here.
Discovery of self
is an amazing
thing in itself,
it's like a
budding rose flower
unfolding daily
in the sunlight,
sharing its fragrance
subtly in the wind
to the end
of nowhere.
It is loves
unfolding dream
that comes in
the hours of
our aloneness to
light up our lives.
It purifies and
lifts the soul
higher to embrace
the bliss that
unfolds quietly
in our being.
In stillness
we absorb and
abandon ourselves
to it's splendor.

That is one thing about fate,
if you don't follow,
it will drag you to its direction.
You can't fly close to the sun,
with out the intention to be burnt.
There are wounds that never
show on the body but are deeper
and more hurtful than anything
that bleeds.
It is like a broken rib,
no one can see it
but it hurts everytime you breathe.
This broken heart,
can it ever heal.
As soon as someone
physically harms you,
leave them.
It is not love anymore,
it's an unhealthy obsession
where they no longer respect
you as a person.
You can do a lot better.
Don't settle for someone
who can't treat you right.
Do not invite afflictions that
are not supposed to
be part of your life.
One can quickly become hurt,
bitter, nasty and even evil because
of a rob off with the wicked partner,
not knowing that the energizing
healing elixir of the universe is
hidden in divine love which is
the cause and effect of all harmony.

They have never been here for me
when I needed help,
like I was for them.
But I wondered,
as I watched,listened and waited.
How will it be on that day
on my long absence,
when that day comes
when I pass on,
will everyone miss me,
Since they did not help me,
will they now show off their fortune
to celebrate my demise,
wear me the best clothes,
put my body in the best casket,
spend the money
they never shared with me,
to entertain my friends
they have never met,
cry over me as if they meant it.
I can't imagine how
it will be on that day.
I guess it will be lonely,
as I'm used to loneliness.
All I ever want is for them to
remember me as loving them.
All I ever want is for
them to understand
why I never complained
about anything or
how they have treated
me as if am an outcast,
an unnecessary annoyance,
yet they call me beloved,
friend,Dad,brother,uncle.,
Mum,Aunty,Sister.
My heart hurts so much,
but you'll never see my tears,
Yes,I took it all in,
I took the pain,
I took the shame,
I took the blame,
I guess it's all good,
it's alright and,
it is nothing...
I'll be fine.
But you know what I found out,
They truly didn't know me,because,
I am like a time capsule
that has never been open.

The life of
the courageous is
definitely not death
but to survive
by any means
necessary and live.
Cowardice is definitely
not an absence
of courage,
it means you
survived today for
another time.
It means safety.
It means you
have won just
for the moment.
What is the
point of dying
when you can
save yourselves.
Even the best
General in an
army loses a battle
and strategize
for another day.
Cowardice means
inner strength to
bear humiliation,
but is it
not much better
than to die.
Let me tell
you now in truth,
there is no
honor in death.
Only thing that
gets you honor
is to stay alive.
To survive is
more honorable.
It means you
took in the pain,
endured the humiliation,
it makes you
even more disciplined.
You are counted
among the titans
that survived to
tell the story.
History will not
be written or
complete without you,
you can never
be forgotten as
an eye witness.
You are not
a coward but
the brave.
Your scar tells
a story of
your bravery.
That wound means
you survived.

The enemy in
you is yourself.
The enemy inside,
peeping within
your soul,
whispering through
your mind,
plotting his follies
in your heart.
Hidden behind
the veil and
hiding inside the wall,
he built a
self made prison wall
and fenced himself
in his dungeon
where he wrought
abominable wickedness.
And God said,
love your enemies
as yourself and
he obeyed and
loved himself
for he is
the nearest neighbor
to himself.
There is no
enemy more wicked
than your heart
and no soul
with more problems
than your mind.
Only you can
choose to be
a saint or a demon.
The key to life
and death has
been given to you
because you are
the possessor of
heaven and earth.
Speak now to
yourself aloud or
whisper softly and
quietly to your
soul to redeem
yourself from yourself.
The first and
the last enemy
to conquer is yourself.
Love yourself enough
to love others
enough like you
love yourself.

It is a call
of service and
to serve.
Iron the clothes
between the
golden cross and
the rose with
blue curtains.
The sacred sceptre
lies in the
center of the
sacred alter
of which only
the chosen is
allowed to approach.
Approval of the
temple guardians
are required to
access the alter.
Many have been
afflicted and slept
because of
disobedience.
Approach the castle
of life with
square and trowel
to work and serve,
and love enough to
be embraced into
the fold of
the Heirophants,
highly dedicated
and consecrated.
Do you hear
the call of
the divine deep
within your soul,
then answer
the call of
the spirit with
sublime gratitude
to serve.
Not looking back,
Ever!

Distorted reasoning
comes like a
wildfire to confuse
the mind.
The mind needs
calmness without
ripples to feel
the flutters of bliss.
I have three eyes,
two to look,
and one to see.
Even the man
the gods protect,
protects himself.
My heart is
my God,
that is where
the God of
my heart dwells
and so i
fear no man.
To be careful
is not to
be afraid.
If you want
to live,
then conquer
your fears haunting
your heart.
Deep thoughts hidden
in the depths
of the heart
without verbal
expression distorts the
heart and confused
the mind.
It needs utterance
to be free.
I would rather
breathe through
the unknown and
allow it to
unfold before me.
Take me where
you wish so
my destination is
a mystery and the
journey becomes magical.

Approach the castle of my heart,
With Love and Joyful tenderness,
Raise the banner of love high so I can see it.

Casualty of love
is a terrible
and unbearably
unfortunate thing.
A circumstance
that can happen
to naive
unsuspecting ones.
A situation that
can be avoided.
A vibrant hot
stone that can
be hurled at
a distance.
Like a javelin
thrown in a battle,
so can it
pierce the heart.
It's brokenness can
break the spirit
and cast a
spell to jinx
your love life.
Heart attack
of the coward
to wound a
heart in love.
To ****** and
abuse the one
whose sole intent
is to make
you happy is
the way of
a sadistic ****.
To hurt the
heart where the
spirit dwells is to
offend the gods.
The cupids will
haunt you down
with hot oil
poured over their
arrows tip dipped
in fire to
pierce your body.
All disappointments
in love hurts
so bad you
can actually feel
the physical pain.
The promise
and fail,
the artful deceptions
of a crafty
cunning lips
whose mouth is
full of lies.
But all of
these ***** and
is disgusting.
It surely has
consequences too,
that can definitely
not be forgotten.

Change the change,
the pupa became
the butterfly.
The cocoon became
the carcass.
Change must come.
Darkness must turn
into light.
The victor in battle
became the victim,
and the weak became
the dominant one.
Change is needful,
for the weak
and frail one rules
the mighty.
The elites and the
influential became dumb,
walking around
without directions like the
zombies.
They became like the robot,
a methodical machine
without a heart.
There must be change,
because the generality
of people are ignorant.
Change your acts and
priorities to allow
change take effect.
Change has arrived,
to mend the errors
of the ignorant ones.
This change must change
hands to restructure,
and restore.
It has come to rebuild
with your help.
Articulate and obediently be
useful to make it right.
Be the change you want.

Dream of flowers,
and magic of the
chandler light,
full of love and
and vitality,
caused by early
morning dew.
Charmed the heart
to prepare for
the evening pomp.
Feelings of warm
cozy embrace,
in spring evening.
Waiting for dinner
to be served.
Tonight is one
of many of
those unforgettable
beautiful moments.
Smiles and giggles,
mixed with the
clinks of wine glasses.
Soft music allures
the heart to
amorous mood.
Lovely special
evening outing,
never to forget.
Looks like I'm
charmed tonight.
But I'm liking it.
So come along,
let's explore this
charming evening
together.

Beautiful evening,
with a beautiful
full moon.
We watched as
the shooting star
flew by.
Star filled sky,
at this lonely night,
we hold hands
going forward together.
Nature itself bears
witness to our love.
The night creatures
sing their songs
close by,
as the moon
dimly lights
the way for us.
What a moment,
so beautiful
and magical,
adorned with smiles
and laughter.
Fireflies everywhere
as if to guide us
to the garden.
Beautiful flowers
welcomed us
with their fragrance.
With the stroke of
quiet radiant evening,
a new beginning
just began.
Today is cherished
and unforgettable.

Days passed before
my tired eyes
with their
incessant activities.
Moon and the
night came to
quite my eyes
to rest my
tired body and
rejuvenate my being.
Spring is here
to awaken and refresh
everything once asleep.
To enjoy the
rain and prepare
for summer.
Summer is here
again at last,
it comes to
bring vitality
into the spirit.
And here comes
the beautiful autumn,
reminding me once
again to start
packing for the
fall where subtle
changes affects
and brings gladness
and beauty.
Welcome the winter,
and it's brightness.
A part of the
world in a
world of its own.
Nature at its beauty,
displayed before
my very eyes.
Here nature is
born again.
Glistering on the
rooftop,
a speck of
the snow flecks,
resonating with
beauty of the
shimmering sun.
A time to
hibernate and to
reflect on all
that have passed,
and waiting for
the spring once
again to come.
Going around in
circles of life,
nights and days
came to pass
in line with nature.
I lived another
circle of existence,  
another beginning
of another year
filled with love
for all that exists.

Colicky baby crying,
calling out to
mother for help,
to do something.
With magical voice,
mother soothes,
swaddle baby with
hands of love.
Rocks baby with
songs so sweet,
to quiet with
lullaby to sleep.
With hands so
gentle mother
massages to calm
the wild cry.
Baby is so
blessed to have
a face with
heavenly smile,
a voice so
soothing and calm,
to tackle the
colicky troubles,
like a lemon balm
to cast away
the cry of pain
with a drop
of ginger in water.
Mother knows that
the colicky cry
all the time
means trouble
for baby.
Thank you
Angel mother
for being here
for baby when
you are needed.

The color in
the world effects
my mood and
my being.
Everything is not
just black and
white though.
I like black,
and i also
like white,  
when black and
white intertwined,
a fusion out
of another is
not only a
mysterious essence
of beauty but
a hint of
pure color of
beautiful gray.
All colors affects
me deeply in
an uncanny mysterious
and amazing way.
What color is
your mood today.
What is the color
of your hair.
What color of
blood does your
heart bleeds out,
there are many
shades of red though.
What color distorts
your life essence.
What is your
favorite color.
How much does
the color in
your world affects
your life to
keep the contract
of the mind.
What color,
but what is
this color anyway.
