Love is not
bad in itself,
neither am i,
for what i
feel inside is
of love,
pure and divine
in itself.
Is it that
am not so
good enough
to be loved
or love to find me.
With all this
feeling surging
inside of me
like a river flowing
within a cave.
Am I missing
anything or is
there something
i should know.
Just sitting here
watching the
day goes by.
Can someone
come get me
before i fall
off the stars
into the sea
and disappear.
I'm really seeking
for you around
the corners.
No wonder I'm
in trouble with love.
Pushing me here
and there without
getting stuck with
someone.
Can't get enough
of all the
goodies in it.
I keep demanding
for more.
I'm so undone
for nothing
is ever so
bad that it
couldn't get worse,
that is for
sure how it works.
It can only
get better always.
Now i know
that love is
catching up on me
while i'm running
the other way,
going on a
journey to the
stars and the
sea to find it.

You know the
answer already.
You are not the
big fish in
a pond and
neither a princess
in a hut.
A princess have
dignity and decorum,
not a prisoner
of love in a palace
or some sort of
lowly maid in
a street corner
of a lonely
abandoned hut,
entreating for love.
And not the
one who enjoys
being abused
to prove that
she is in love.
A man who
****** you and
mess with your
sense of self
is not worthy
of you.
You are a
precious jewel and
a special gem.
Worthy of everything
graceful and beautiful,
valued and treasured.
Come home now
estrange daughter
of the house
and adorn the castle
as a princess.
Your prince will
come for you,
a true prince,
that is worthy of you.
©2018,Emeka Mokeme. All Rights Reserved.

I behold your face,Divine one,
Come in all your glory.
Come gently,like the wind
Rushing into my being,
Infusing it with
your wondrous power.
Come like the sun
In all it's splendour,
Warming and caressing my heart.
With grandeur and ecstatic bliss,
Holy Spirit divine
shine forth in me.
Come like a gentle rain,
With tenderness,
Cleanse me of all
impurities of mind and body,
Heal and make me whole.
Come tickle my soul.
Come with compassion,
Come with your Joyful tenderness,
Your sensitivity and warmth.
Come fill my being with your light,
your life and your love.

And I will tell
you something
you probably
don't know yet.
Your earthly
tabernacle must
be protected by
all means necessary
because the God
of your heart is
resident within the
castle of your soul.
Therefore let no one
enter your inner
kingdom unless they
come with love,
respect and dignity.
What you allow,
is what will continue.
You have an obligation
to be better everyday
in every way possible
because of the grace
that you have.
Intimacy is not purely
physical,
it is the act of connecting
with someone so deeply,
you feel like you can
see into their soul.
What is in the heart
will come out in the life.
Out of your dreams,
be born and out of your heart,
be alive and out of your soul,
be light for you are nothing else.
©2018,Emeka Mokeme. All Rights Reserved.

What do you do when
you are in love with someone
who is not in love with you.
The heart is tortured and
goes through unspeakable Criss.
It's like one going to the airport
to wait for the ship to berth.
Just like one selling a
precious gem stones and
calling on the poor passersby
to come and buy knowing they
cannot afford it,
saying i have all you want,
come in and have a look.
Walk away from the one who
has no interest in your life
for your heart will be burned
and consumed by its flame.
Are you fulfilled and happy
with someone outside your self.
Is this unattended love wrecking you.
Your life is molded in response to
the call of the divine.
Stop now and listen to your heart.
Is forcing yourself into someone's
life worth it.
Someone who really doesn't care
about you or want to be in your life.
Conflict of interest can ruin the
essence of your heart and mess
with your sense of self.
Recover yourself from this unnecessary
union for the sake of the one who is
waiting to adorn your heart and beautify it.
The cosmic law fulfills all things.

The warrior in
me arise to
fight back
as he confronts
the troubling monsters
within the gate.
For the very
first time
he will not
sheath his sword.
He knows that
God will forgive
but he won't.
The demons within
are not
worth forgiven.
The warrior is
ready to fight
his battle against
whatsoever stands
on his way
to the kingdom.
He must conquer
all to gain
entrance into the
inner corridor of
the spiritual bliss.
Since a son
decided to have
a son before
his father,
the warrior will
show him that
it is not
possible ever,
because the river
does not and
cannot flow backward.
With the sword
of the spirit drawn,
and the help
of the Almighty,
the warrior wins
his battles of self.

Pining for the one
who can never love you
hurts the heart.
Why will you be pining
away over the one
who never cares for you
and playing hard to get,
while another is there
dying to prove her love
to be with you.
I must be a fool
with the eyes open
but actually really blind.
How can I be looking for
perfection in an imperfect one.
There is nothing like I will
love you forever.
Truth is there is no forever.
Everything is just now,
take it and run with it.
I know you are annoyingly crazy
but I love you anyway.
Your heart is beautiful
and that is enough for me.
Happiness has already found us.
Let's just take it and make it happen.
The morning is here
to bring good news,
that desired pleasure and
comfort that yesterday could not give.
Beautiful is the beginning of
something uniquely magnificent.

Wait with me,
in silence for
the first time
under the
pear tree,
so the sun
will go down.
Walk with me,
even if you
don't want to,
I'd like to
show you the
beauty of
the night.
Sit with me
awhile to share
the thoughts and
the dreams of
my heart.
Sing with me
this new song,
to comfort and
bring solace and
soothe the
broken hearted.
Dance with me
tonight to drive
away this heartache
for the moment.
Hug me for
just this moment,
so i can hide
inside your
heart beats.
Pray with me
a little bit,
even if you
don't know how.
Let's laugh
out so loud
even if you
don't feel like,
it will make
you feel better.
Let's just hang out
and hold each other,
it will make
a difference.
Let's just smooch
and kiss
for a while,
and feel the
breathlessness as
our heart pounds
together in the
dance of love,
it's better than
arguing over nothing. ®

Creatures of the night,
howling and cooing,
in the dark forest,
sending chills that
run down my spine,
with goose bumps
all over my body.
It's really spooky in
this quiet night as the
drizzling rain makes it
more difficult and
uncomfortable to see
in the dark.
The tranquil of this
night is so frightening
and makes one go weak
at the knees.
I can hear the ****** biting
the wood to make a ridge
so the flood will find its path.
You can hear every
footstep of these creatures
moving in the dark.
The flapping wings of the
dreaded vampire blood *******
hammerhead bat flying so low
above my head,
another nightmare of the night,
the night owl staring at me,
the park of wolves barking
at a distance,
the creepy noises of other
animals in the deep dark night,
the noise of the ruffled dried leaves
by the king cobra hunting.
It seems they are watching
your every move in the dark.
The whiff of your scent
they perceive from afar.
Alone in the quiet dark night
with the night creatures
is a perfect place to test your
nerves and witness
the beauty of the night unfold before you
in display of their magic.

So much bitterness
in the heart of man
makes me wonder
if there is hope at all
for reconciliation
or to remedy
this bad situation
and challenges
trying to consume the masses.
I still wonder
if this looming menace
can be contained and diverted
or replaced by something
more meaningful.
This is a time for
sober reflection.
What do we really
gain in all of these?
Isn't there a better way,
there must be.
Now that their mind is made up,
have you thought about
the next step to take?
You need to make a
move to relocate now.
I've always told you
to be careful of what you seek
or you'll find hell.
Now you are at a crossroad.
What are you gonna do,
you tell me.
© 2017, Emeka Mokeme.All rights reserved.

It can be
a part of
what you enjoy
doing at will.
You are happy
with the fragrance
of their life.
The flowers of
the African orchard.
Magnificent and exotic,
beautiful and graceful,
inviting and lovely,
they adorn majestically
our surroundings
here and there,
without moving,
ready to sacrifice,
and lay down their
lives for you.
In your admiration
of their loveliness
you exhibited your
weakness and ignorance,
harvesting their lives
for merchandise.
In your cruelty,
you forcefully use
and waste their
fragrance without
any remorse.
Not minding the
pain they feel
as you cut
off their parts
for your happiness.
As they endured
your barbaric gesture
for centuries,
you called it love.
You didn't know
they feel the
pain too as
they screamed out
in Kirlian distress test.
Who will ever
listen to their
cry and help them.
As you squished
and mashed to
squeeze out their
oils and fragrances
to enrich yourselves,
without reparations.
How does that
make you feel.
No sympathy or
empathy for them.
Yet you claim
to love and
have feelings.
Be careful of
what you enjoy
doing else you
will be judged
by nature.

I was once
a bamboo tree,
bending over for
everyone to climb,
dancing in the
wind by the
moonlight.
Listening to the
flute and the
songs of the birds.
I am the
feed of the
animals,
I took in
their farts smelling
all around me.
Now am taller
and stronger.
I was once
a young iroko tree,
standing tall with
dignity and pride.
I am matured,
and become like an
umbrella for shade.
My presence alludes
strength.
But now i am
the sacred dwarf iroko,
the mysterious
anunuebe tree of
which no one
or any living thing
is allowed to
come near or
approach or fly over
without serious
consequences.
No one can
climb me,
it is not allowed.
The once loved
is now the abhorred,
revered and respected.
I'm no longer
bending over
for anyone and
will not allow
anyone to climb
all over me.
You must approach
with respect to
be allowed entrance.
This is my
natural stance.

And the light
entered through the
heart to affect the
known and unknown.

There the rivers
flows through its
tributaries to give
life and light
to heal the body.

Though the heart
is hidden in
darkness away from
the light.

But it is
full of light
and eternal divine love
to cast the
darkness away.

The beauty of it's flame,
full of warmth
and loveliness  
can melt the iceberg.

The darkness,
dispelled and quietly
receded yielding even
to the tiniest light.

Infiltrated and penetrated
through the cracks
into the heart
to vitalize
and give vigor
to the soul.  

The darkness,
can never struggle
with the light,
for there is no
power in darkness

And no power
of victory to
conquer you.
For there is always
a way of escape.

The world is about to witness
a profound phenomenon,
Such that will baffle
even the wise ones.
Don't look very far,
It is already here,
Closer to you than your breathe.
It's already in your home,
In your head it's already there,
It has found a resting
place in your heart.
Your life is full of its
complicated complexities
You act it out everyday.
Your life is messed up
because you allowed
it to influence your judgement.
You don't know what
you did not know.
This phenomenon will
shake the root of your faith
and all that you believe in,
thwart all that you know,
all you have ever done or achieve.
The secret vault is
opened by the ancient
creatures trying to find a place
and a new home to dwell in.
Out of it comes the
influx of the unknown nature.
Advanced are their arts
that all you  knew is like a child play.
Be prepared oh man for
you will not be able to cope
with what will befall you.
A new age has come,
Dawn of new age is here.
The old will be wiped away,
and done with.
The new is subtly manifested.
The people will faint
whose heart is full of sin.
For the brightness of
their glorious presence will
burn out a part of the masses.
Some will be taken.
Be comforted for
you shall overcome.
Be strong and fearless.
Be bold and courageous.
Prepare yourself to
be counted among
the victorious few chosen.
Don't fret, be unshakable.

Victory is accorded to
such matters as the
blending together of
the day and night,
the light and darkness
confronting each other,
fighting for balance.
Morning wins over the night,
even as the night wants
to conquer the daylight,
so even a flicker of light
drives away the darkness
wheresoever they meet.
One must bow down to the other,
yielding to the others invitation,
without struggle,
both seeking for dominance,
but unwittingly ending up
balancing each other.
As darkness is not adapted
to sustain the splendour
of the glittering light of the sun,
but suddenly becomes totally
invisible,
entirely receded and
immediately vanishes,
thus also when the power
of God which fills all
things with good,
abundantly shines forth,
no place is left for the
tumult of evil.

Now you only
see the outside
of the *** and
not what's inside.
Until you open the
*** I guess you'll
never know,
for the aroma you
perceive may be
the problem of
a different scent of
a potpourri and
incense on the table.
After the plate is set,
you may still be
hungry when whatever
is inside the ***
is not so good
and pleasing.
Because of what's
inside the ***
the appetite may vanish.
They said that beggars
have no choice but
that is not true,
because if they don't
have a choice they may
end up eating ****.
When you lose yourself
because you love
chicken soup so much,
you may end up
eating a vulture.
What went down,
is an important
message so amazing
you can't believe it,
it's too good to be true.
We must seek justice
by any means necessary.
Deal or no deal there
will always be a
perfect time to reason
with the unreasonable
and irrational fellow.
And that time is now.

Deep love
like deep rain
receives its strength
like deep breaths
from deep feelings
from deep emotions
from deep heart
pounding like
deep drum beats
calling the deep
to answer the
deep making deep
impressions upon the
deep canvas of
life's threshold
to bring comfort
and solace to
our being.
With deep
happy thoughts
deep memories
are made.
Deep within ourselves
hopes are rekindled
so deeply.
With deep love
the greater light
are subtly ignited.
From the depth
of our being
deeper than the
oblivious abyss,
from the world
that surpass hope
and fear comes
deep courage,
with wings to
make us fly.
Deeply to delightful
high we know
deeper that the
higher than the
highest watches
even deeply
our oppression from
the very beginning.
Our hearts in
deep solemn silence
offers deep gratitude
to the bliss received.

You see all these people
creating a hullabaloo to
discredit others will end up
in a deep trouble.
You can always see how dark
and degrading their lives are
by looking at the things they do.
They have followed the path
of their destiny.
There will not be any help
to rescue them.
The atrocities of their crimes
are so heavy that even the
holocaust and hades will
be too light to compare to
what will happen to them.
To destabilize a united people
through ethnic conflicts and
inciting the young and the youths
to be violent is not so good.
They called it ethnic cleansing.
Erasing of what the Almighty
in his infinite mercy puts in place
has a grave consequences.
Man in his thinking thought he is
so ready to confront the rebound
of his follies and ignorance.
Their actions will eventually
touch everything and everyone.
There's no escape for the evil one,
retribution awaits such a one
for their actions attracts the reaction
and consequences of their deeds.
They must be careful of what
they seek or they will find hell.
Tolerance must come into play
for peace to be achieved.

Now I know for sure that
you are the one that my
heart wants to love,
the only one who has
touched my humanness.
You helped to bring Joy to me,
and for that I give the rest
of my life to your care.
My heart speaks for you,
my soul yearn for you,
my whole being resonates
to your love.
Two hearts meets in the *****
of love forever.
Let's not mind if we reach the
shore or not.
This heart will always love you,
for you are the best.
Life for me is beautiful with you in it.
How can I not have you as a
covering for the rest of my life.
Delightful is the day I found you.
Grateful to be called your friend.
I'm so glad to have you as
the love of my life.
Waking up everyday by your
side is awesome.
Because of you I am favored.
I lived a genteel life
but now abundance surrounds me.
My house is now a home,
a sanctuary of love,
where healing takes place on my
dining table because of your kitchen.
My life is fulfilled,
because the God of my heart smiled.
I say thanks to you.

So far away are you.
How can i ever get to you
when my heart is weary
from searching in the
darkest corner for you.
Even the brightness of
the firmament could not
reveal your hiding place.
Open your heart
so i can know it.
I want to know it.
Though it is deep,
unfathomable,
unfamiliar,
and unspeakably confusing.
I will die trying to
know and understand it.
Know that however hardened
your heart seems to be,
the fire of love from
my heart will melt it.
Look deeply into my eyes,
you'll see the reflection of
my yearning soul calling out to you.
Hold my hand let's walk together
for destiny is calling.
I'm the only one who
knows your heart.
You knew that i know.
What is keeping you.
What is holding you back.
This fear will overwhelm you.
This thoughts of the unknown
will destroy your faith.
Allow me now to give to you
that strength lovers use against
any forces that threatens their happiness.
Let's not mind if we reach the shore or not.
Come beloved, destiny calls.

Wonders of the world
is too insignificant to
what you will experience
in your life for opening
your heart to receive the
fairest impressions of God.
You are the best gift life can
ever give to the universe.
Infused in you are the
unimaginable seed of greatness.
You are for signs and wonders.
Created and endowed with
enormous and immense abilities
to subdued and have dominion
over all things created.
Your words and thoughts can change
situations and make things manifests
from something for nothing cannot
give rise to something.
Thoughts are definitely something,
and your words are powerfully alive,
you only need to properly project it
into being to give it form and bring
it into your reality.
All things resonates to you,
whether positively or negatively,
depending on the platform you stand.
Everything responds to the octaves
of your vibration within the wavelength
of the rhythm of the pendulum swinging
circumspectively overly around you.
You can do anything you want to do
if you really want to do it.
But you have to learn how to do it differently,
because you are definitely differently configured.
You are an absolute dot stretched into being,
vitalised by the power beyond the ordinary
and full of grace of the divine light.
You are the light of the world.

Beyond this
gate of death
is another life
quite unknown.
Beyond everything
that we do
or acquired,
there is no
longer true heartfelt
desired satisfaction
when the goal
is reached.
Out of all
our painful struggles
disturbing thoughts and
concerns with
sleepless nights,
nothing is really
gained but memories
that will soon
disappear and
remembered no more.
Is it really
truly worth it,
the many greedy
things that made
you think that
your brothers and
relatives and friends
were your enemies
because you wanted
what doesn't
belong to you,
something you will
probably never see
again and will finally
leave behind and
sold out by
the ones you
tried to please.
All my ancestors
prowess and victories,
and lands left
behind are sold out
and no longer valid
and valued.
Should I really
continue in my
struggles to amass
the things that
will someday in
the near future
be discarded.
What now are
the essence of
all these struggles
that has induced
health challenges.
Is it not
better and beneficial
to invest more
within my spirit
where the true
treasures are built.
All what I've
acquired has turned
around against me,
to destroyed me
without having the
chance to enjoy it.

Where is your honor,
where is your faith.
Did your strength fail
or are you hiding
your face from shame.
Nothing much can be
done for anyone who
has lost the will to live.
When hope eludes you,
then death is eminent.
Do not be defeated
by the pesky unfortunate
circumstances popping
up here and there in
your life to harass
and disparage you.
You are not of the
down world but full of
zest and of life.
Hold on to your life
with so much love
and gentleness.
Your life is a gift,
cherish it.
It is a treasure worthy
to be guarded with might.
Honor it with dignity
and respect for you
are a unique blessing
to the world.
Never be untitled for
you are greater than
anything ever created.
Supernaturally superior
to anything in the universe.
Be glad that you are here
and all these too shall pass.

Tell me what it is that you can't do,
or become,
tell me what it is
that is too insignificant to achieve.
Life is not worth throwing away
just to please certain people by
forgetting the truth and essence of life.
You don't want to die for another's believe.
Using your death to **** their assumed
enemy means you are one too.
Blowing up yourself is an abomination.
Anything unnatural that could cause
anyone's death is not worth anything.
Avoid it like a plague.
Hide yourselves from it's way,
when it comes with fury to meet you.
Close your ears from it's path,
as it uses subtle words to cajole you.
Guard your heart from the troublesome
tempest of it's bait as it keeps knocking
on your door to convince you,
using all kinds of manipulative
crafty intimidating tactical
techniques to woo you,
just to send you to your death.
Don't buy their ideas for it has nothing
to do with your vision.
Death awaits anyone who does not listen
to the secrets offered by wisdom.
It may look so strange and simple,
but it carries within it the age old beneficial
heart warming truth that has time tested
safe haven to keep you alive.
Heed to it's invitation to live.
Cowardice is not courage,
it's only an end to your beautiful life.
If there's truth in dying to prove your cause,
why are the initiators don't die
first to prove their case.
Can't you see that it's all for nothing.
Be wise and say no to their call.
Your lives matter.

in your imagination.
Holding so tight
of the things
you claim to
love is obsession
and not love.
Free your spirit
to reclaim yourself.
To love is to
feel pain,
it is sometimes
painful.
It will even be
more painful if
you held on
so tight.
But love will
ease it of you.
You don't have
to suffer the pangs
of the bite of love
for i genuinely
love you.
But this love
brings you pain
when you
hold tight.
I can't breath
since you
won't let go.
Hold me gently,
i'm still yours.
Hold me
loosely and
you'll have
me forever.
No need to
suffocate what
you love by
holding so tight
or I die. .
Free me so
as to last.
Water me with
words of love
to sprout,
not to wither.
The love in
my heart is
just for you.
Respect and care,
is all I need.
I'm not a
toy or a piece
of possession.
Neither am i
a rubber stamp
you pick up
anytime you want
to stamp your
heart when
you need me.
I'm still yours
even in my
freedom.
What is the
essence of my
imprisonment in
your heart,
i'm not a
caged animal
but a soul
willing to share
my heart and
my love,
my life and
my essence with you.
But set me free
so I can be
like the butterfly
looking for flowers
to drink on
the nectar,
hovering around
you with
tremendous gladness.

Don't be distracted
Open your eyes
so you can see
the deception of magic
unfold before your eyes
Stay wake now
do not slumber
Stay home and
be alert
Through your window
peep in the dark
to watch this movie
It is about you
About your very life
Five big G
dancing in the air
on your streets.
Disguised as a
mechanic working even
in the rain.
No a technician,
planting his technology
in your frontyard,
no your backyard
unsolicited.
With impunity
they worked tirelessly.
No consent seemed,
that's how cruel
they are.
Robots are better,
they say.
Delibratly introducing
something new.
Artificial intelligence,
the next level.
Covid-19 vaccine,
to help you heal.
But microchip inserted,
unwittingly to monitor
your every move.
Digital certificate,
you must produce,
or no buying and
no selling allowed.
Don't think you
are safe.
To sleep with
a wild lion
or a cobra
is better than
a deluded and
demonic sick lunatic.
Stay awake and
stay home,
be safe but
don't be distracted.
Enjoy the movie.

DÓOR KICKER
A door kicker
takes no *******,
he takes bullets
to save and
to protect those
he loves.
In this dangerous land
filled with chaos,
he must become
a nightmare to
the wicked ones.
He must be
careful but
now it's time
to be careful
not to be careful
for the sake of
what he must do.
His instinct as
sharp as a razor
to cut deeper behind
the enemies territory.
His blood he must
shed with gladness.
He bled to
secure the land
for the sake
of our posterity.
Our extinction hurts
and haunt him.
Like a wounded lion
in search of
its absonded prey,
he hunts down
the terrorist and
oppressors messing
with his people.
Putting pride and
ego aside,
he fought without
surrender and no retreat.
Willing to lay down
his life with
absolutely nothing to gain.
His altruistic ways
baffles and perplexed me.
In such a one
my faith grows.

Before it gets
too dark to see.

Would you do
something,
anything at all
to put on the light.

Darkness is fast
approaching,
even the light
of a firefly will do.

I don't know
what i don't know.

But if you know,
you know.

Before it gets
too dark to see.

Complexities and
confusion all around us.

Wailing,
groaning and crying
heard daily everywhere.

Even at day time,
it's getting dark,
too dark to see.

The soul is
weary from its toil
and exaction.

Slowly everything
crumbles in the
ashes of the struggle.

Everyone agrees that
it is time to
do something.

But i think
it is time
to light the
candles and pray
before it gets
too dark to see.

The people are
already grumpy and
groveling in the day
as if the darkness
just appeared.

It's not too late
to do something
before it gets
too dark to see.

Even the light
of the moon
at night and
the sun in
the day will cease.

All you need
is the glow
of the light within,
before it gets
too dark to see.

You will surely soon become
the sacred animal for sacrifice,
to cleanse the land
and purify the abominable
acts of our people,
instigated by the unreasonable
ignorant elders.
And for those that have died
on account of their ignorance,
have paid with their blood
to cleanse our land.
These sacrifices are
not willingly given.
Will the gods accept such
a waste of human lives
to ameliorate their anger?
Or will another sacrifice
be performed to appease
their already inflated anger
over these ethnic cleansing
by a group seeking for dominance.
These strangers in the land
could not tolerate our differences
in this forced relationship.
Their greediness and overbearing
attitude is frightening.
With hidden intent,
Cunning and Forcefulness,
with intimidation they unleashed
mayhem to our people.
Dazed as if hypnotized,
with voodoo and hoodoo at work.
no one is doing anything about it.
Everyone is watching as our families,
Our friends, youths, children,
women, the elderly,our farms,
barns are destroyed,
properties burnt down by
these strange ones.
You will soon be the next if you
still stand and do nothing.
Do not be an unwilling sacrifice,
do something.

Hiding within the air waiting for you to fumble just a little bit in the presence of your beliefs before it strikes is doubt. It is a stranger meddling with your heart.

Personal Glimpses

For I know that my redeemer liveth,
and that he shall stand at the later
day upon the earth.
I am the way,
the truth and the life,
no man cometh onto the father but by me.
I am purified,
I have passed through
the gates of darkness unto light.
I have fought upon earth for good,
I have finished my work,
I have entered the invisible.
I am the sun in his rising.
I have passed through
the hour of cloud and of night.
I am Spirit,
the concealed one,
the justified one.
I am The Lord of life triumphant over death,
there's no part of me that is not of God.
I am the preparer of the way,
the rescuer into the light.
Out of the darkness let that light arise.
Before I was blind but now I see.
I am the reconciler with the ineffable.
I am the dweller of the invisible.
Let the white brilliance of
the Divine Spirit descend.

A fresh start
for all of us
to love more,
do more,
to act more,
strategize more,
learn new ways
of doing things,
learn new trade,
acquire new skills,
upgrade yourselves,
migrate and relocate
to new environment,
move away from
things that didn't work,
invest in our growth,
add value to our lives,
help change our
priorities.
Explore new frontier
and horizon.
Another new dawn
emerged for another
beginning of
something uniquely
magnificently new.
A dream is born,
a desire to
accomplish something,
sprouts in the heart,
a promise comes true.
A vision manifests,
new arrangement of
something occurs.
The change we
always wanted
level up with us.
Aspirations are forged.
Challenges are confronted.
New goal begins
in earnest.
The culmination of
the past efforts
and projects begin
to yield results.
We want to
stay focused with
determination to get
things done.
We plan not
to fail or faint,
forget not to
plan or we faint.
New paths are
forged because we
are the pathfinders.
May God's love
unveiled by his
Spirit shield you,
protect and bless you.
May the road
arise to meet you,
may the wind
be behind you,
the rain wet your path,
may the wheel
of fortune turn
in your favour.
May grace and
the kindness of
individuals surround you.
May it's breast
satisfy you and
may you find
peace in its *****.
Embrace it with gladness,
it is yours to take.

Ruffled and unsettled,
pressed by the 
loneliness deep
within my being,
joy flew away
like a bird
and perched on
the window pane
of another.
Pain seeps
from the heart
into the bones
and tissues like
hot oil burning
even the marrows.
Only the birds messed
empty cage remains,
to tell the 
intricate and intriguing
stories of once 
inhabited beautiful island,
called "my heart".
How would i
tell another the
beauty and glory
of the joy
long gone,
left on a
beautiful but now
abandoned heart.
Dropped like an
old used earthenware.
But certainly it is 
still needful and
useful like an 
uncultivated farmland.
And the truth
is that this 
very thing
is really worrisome.
How would anyone
new begin to
understand the depth 
of love once shared
by this very heart.
But is it
really real love or
just another mistake,
because i couldn't
win her heart.
Can true love
really be lost.
It is a terrible
accident for it
almost consume me.
Where is this
love hiding,
whisper now to 
my ears where
your true self abides,
so my whole being 
can truly move on 
and my heart may rest.

You are not that
easy to fathom,
not as simple
as you think.
Very difficult
and complex.
Even in your
assumed simplicity
you are still
profoundly not
so simple.
Do you know that,
a different version
of you exists in
the minds of
everyone you know.
Because of your
complex nature,
characteristic traits,
change in moods,
reaction under pressure,
demeanor and manners
exhibited in any
condition and situation,
unwittingly gives another
different version of you.
You are not
really exactly what
you think you are.
There are so
many things wrapped
up in excellence
within you.
The perception
and understanding
of you is quite
different from how
you see yourself,
even with your family.
We surprise ourselves
most of the time,
then give excuses
and reasons why we
reacted in certain way.
Our unique combination
of our differences is
what makes us stronger
and beautiful.
Admit your version,
even your new edition now
and enjoy it immensely.

He speaks
with love as
if on fire
for her.
Waiting by the
corner of the
long road,
love has the
best gift for her,
gifted to the one
so broken,
not knowing that
love has
something so
beautiful to offer,
and now they
found each other.
Entangled,
their heart connects,
love captured and
consumed their souls.
Who said
there is no
longer love
for the aged.
Age is a
matter of the mind,
and if you don't mind,
it doesn't matter.
Like a package
wrapped and kept
in the arctic
to be opened
in due season,
she waited by faith.
Like an aged wine
in the wine celler,
matured and confident,
she will taste
and perform well on
the dining and
the other room.
And now their
hearts trapped as one
love blossomed forever.
As for you
who waits long,
loves gift will soon
exchange hands
and love will bloom.

The tenderness in
your beauty softens
the lines of sorrow
in my wrinkled face.
The elegant movement
of your graceful steps
flows like that of a running brook
in a quiet country side.
The velvet softness of your hand
reminds me of the
tenderness of a rose petal.
You my dear,
are a soft sweet flowing
melody of a symphony orchestra,
a beautiful work of art,
unique and complex,
And it amazes me
how in your complexity
you are profoundly so simple.
You are etched in gold
by the hand of The creator.
May your days be filled with all
that is beautiful and Devine.
You are loved a lot.

If I'm allowed to talk,
what will i say of you,
my love.

What can i say
even now,
as words to
describe you escape
my mouth.

But the heart
still holds you up
as if you are water
in a container
to quench a thirsty throat.

A life giving
fresh air in
the heat of the desert.

A warm covering
in a cold weather.

There's no words
to describe you,
no i don't have any.

To describe you
is like describing the air.

You have no color,
you have no taste,
you can't even
be touched or
seen or even stolen.

But yet,
you have eyes
to see,
you have hands
to feel,
you have face unseen,
you have taste unmatched.

Like water,
you chose the heart
you want to dwell in.

You flo ,w anywhere
and wherever you choose.

Talking about you is
to talk about
your essence,
divine and pure sweetness,
excess love and beauty.

You are so
profoundly powerful,
yet perfect and uncommon.

How can I
shelter myself
from the madness
of this world.
I live really
quietly here
in this place.
No noise
but calmness from
the silence and
stillness of the forest.
I am happy.
Here I have
everything I need.
There are
abundance of
various fruits,
herbs to take
care of my health,
water unpolluted.
It's time to
spend time
with myself,
enjoy the serenity
of the spirit,
give myself time
to relax and feel
the subtle energy
of love within
and all around me.
Never really bother
about anything,
and allow my
consciousness to attune
to my spirit
when it's ready.
Take a long
walk alone at
beach and around
nature.
Just enjoy the
calmness of the moment.
But inwardly listen
with effortless effort
to the rhythm
and heart beat
of the ecosystem,
the forest and
the circles in nature.

There is poetry
in nature.
The way you
breath is poetry.
Meandering of the
river is poetry.
There's poetry
in rainfall.
The songs of
the wind is poetry.
The harsh anger
of the cyclone
is poetry.
There's poetry in
a child's laughter.
The piecing eyes
and the toothless
grin of a
child and the
elderly is poetry.
Poetry is written
everywhere,
even in glistering
star in the
galaxy.
Beauty is poetry,
and the ugliness
of discarded things
are poetry too.
There's poetry
hidden everywhere
you look.
The art of
cooking is poetry.
The heart expresses
itself in poetry.
Love is poetry.
Life itself is
poetry written in
the sand of time.
There's poetry
everywhere and in
everything,
if only you
can look.

I can't tell you what to think,
for your thoughts are
exclusively yours,
and they are elusive.
They come and go as they please.
With it's complexities,
It comes whenever it likes,
overloading your head
with it's multiple waves to create
and recreate your being.
It's rhythmic interchange
balances everything concerning you.
I cannot tell you how or what to feel,
your feelings are exclusively yours.
Both your thoughts and your feelings
are quite interwoven.
Manifesting as emotionally motivated thoughts,
or thoughtfully motivated emotions,
all working in synergy to bring a
perfect union.
The paths you walk,
the things you do generates them.
Only you can draw
the map of your inner life.
Though the understanding
of it eludes you.
But the path you choose to walk
is eternally exclusively yours.
It leads you to that place of your rebirth.
It may be peaceful.
Your printout may be chaos.
This design is your very own,
created by you.
But in all,
only you have the power to change it,
and make it right.

In the universe;
there are thousands of flowers
that blossom,
each with it's own Beauty,
yet no one is answerable to the other,
in synergy they work together,
giving out their beautiful fragrance.
Some are mild,
some sharp and pungent.
Others don't have any,
yet they exist together,
finding a common ground.
They pour out their fragrance,
give out their beauty,
to soothe and comfort the human spirit,
demanding nothing,
giving out freely,
an immense helper,
glad to do their work,
ready to share their life,heal or die,
never tired or complain,
breathing out what we take in,
and ever so humble,
they lay at our feet,
always at service to our needs.
Beauty is beauty.
With gladness and joyful tenderness
accept the beauty that is yours,
for it is only yours and no one else.

My mouth cannot
tell all it encountered
and I can't deal
with all this drama,
controversy and
the embarrassment
and confrontations.
It is too much for
me to handle.
I really need to
leave but not
without my love,
I must pick up
the pieces for my
heart is manipulated
by this game of
love being played out.
It is very disturbing
and devastating,
hurting everyone
concerned.
Arrested development
was necessary.
The choice I made
is uncomplicated and
with eyes of mercy
comes a cry for justice.
Come in and
have a look,
I have all you need.

Don't tell me it's our uniqueness
that makes us beautiful,
There's no beauty in hatred.
Please don't tell me that our
different diversities make
us colourful and great,
Our diversity has brought us shame.
Don't tell me to be patient
because I can't stand this
unnecessary killing of my people.
Don't ever tell me that
it's going to be okay,
because it will never be.
Their sinister presence makes
me very uncomfortable.
Don't tell me to submit
to this forceful arrangement,
It is ungodly,
it is unnatural.
Nature from beginning
never made it so.
Who has ever killed his
children asking to go out
to the field to play,
Or asking  for bread to
eat when hungry,
Or forced a loved one to stay
in an abusive relationship.
I am sick and tired of being
sick and tired to see our youths
mowed down in our presence
while our elders watch.
My soul feels smouldered
by the pressures from
all these atrocities.
And now a godly abortion
has become necessary.
And don't tell me it can't be done,
Everything is possible.

I pity you
when you can't
figure out who i am.

I pity you
for your lack
of the knowledge
of me.

You have no idea
who i really am.

Look again beyond
the imagination
of this realm.

This figure
you see is not
what i look like,
it is not
the real me.

I am different,
very unique and
complex you see.

I am a creature
of the light,
divine in nature.

With the
dominant force to
subdue the oppressors
and adversaries.

You can't bear
to look at me,
for my glory
will daze you.

And dazzle your
little mind with
the confusion of
the ignorant.

I pity you
for not knowing
the one in me.

I am more
than you could
ever imagine.

Do you really
think that all
you knew or
even ever see is real.

All are illusions,
a dream of
which someday
you will wake up from.

Right now,
i will fizzle out
of your presence
just for a while.

This moment
is a dream,
a beautiful good dream.

Whatsoever you
allow is allowed.
What you watch
and hear takes
preeminence in
your mind and
pattern itself in
your daily acts.
Take care,
put a leash
on your thoughts.
Whatever you
allowed inside
controls you.
See not that
which distorts
your inner vision.
It will mar
and mess with
your mind.
whatsoever enters
the estate of
your mind
takes a seat.
While dining
with you
binds it with
fetters so strong,
you may never
escape from
it's grip,
for the soul
becomes dyed with
the color of
it's thoughts.
Whosoever brings in
the ant infested
firewood invites
lizards for a feast.

She came out of nowhere
into my life through the one
close to me for blood speak,
wanting the best for me.
Now I'm stuck to her heart,
glued to her love just like that.
Wondering where was
she all along.
But she came at the right time
to rescue the broken and fallen me.
Restore the lost hope
of my fragile heart.
Mend the brokenness
of my empty world.
Now I'm alive again.
Everything seems anew.
Deep calling the deep.
Can you hear the butterfly?
Could even hear the
grasshopper chirping.
The laughter of children
at the backyard,
so beautiful.
Seems as if I just woken up
after along slumber to face
the broken world afresh.
My heart is so grateful
for a time such as this.
Like a finger pointing to the moon,
you don't keep looking at the finger,
Or you will miss all
the heavenly glory.
This is the final chapter.

Ancient of Days.
You who dwell within the Throne
Enshrouded within the clouds.
Through the sun you behold
and look down on earth,
Your eyes covers the whole world.
The sun is your essence.
Your glory radiates your universe.
Through it you give
life to all that exists.
Multitude of stars
shows your glory.
The ocean and seas
rejoice at your voice.
The heavens waters our forests.
You are the breath within breath.
All created things resonates to you.
My heart today
and always pants for you.
I bow down
and prostrate before your throne.
Jehovah;
that is who you are.
I am forever grateful.
Thank You Lord.
