Alexander The Great
Mikaeel Barendse Aug 2014
The best ever military commander
Was a young king named Alexander.
From the Macadonian city state
He was known as Alexander the Great.
A brave man - he had a lot of bottle;
A wise man too - taught by Aristotle.
He fought many battles & always won,
His army never lost a single one.
Turkey, Syria and Egypt all fell,
So did Babylon, and Persia as well.
But after 13 years of war, his men
Said they wanted to go home again.
That was the end of conquest & glory
And that's the end of Alexander's story
Thinking of arts.

The ruler
Mikaeel Barendse Aug 2014
Ruler of the land of the dead, 
Owned a dog with more than one head,
And a gold chariot - beautifully constructed.
He also had a wife, whom he had abducted.

Beautiful Woman
Mikaeel Barendse Aug 2014
Woman are the ones who are always there,
To make sure everything stays fair.

They are the ultimate force who sat up all restless nights,
In the fight for human rights

Woman had many foes ,
But in the end they are the ones who rose.

The new generation is fearless ,
Where woman stand together tearless.

They stopped whispering in the shade ,
And forgot to be afraid.

Acceptance of defeat ,
The heart of the sun,

The battle is over,
The woman have won.

Eyes of the heavens,
The hand of the sun,

The Old life is over ,
A new one has begun.

Where woman are strong ,
Where they belong.
Woman's month♡
