Respect people,
Don't think you're better than everyone else,
Keep being open minded,
That way you'll learn even more.
And treat people the exact same way you'd love to be treated,
Its natural to be nice to people and expect them to be nice to you too but unfortunately that's not always the case,
Don't forget self respect,
Reflect what you admire.

Its great to be good friends with yourself,
Not in a selfish manner,
In a way which can  accommodate others into your life,but also not allow them to take advantage of you.
Know yourself,
Love yourself,
Talk to yourself,
Laugh at yourself,
Its worth it..
Trust yourself,even just a bit.it can go a really long way,
Trust your instincts.
You won't ever know anyone,the way you can possibly know yourself.
Love yourself.

Embracing the power of thoughts,
Believing in the power of dreams,
Having ink as a way of release,
Yearning to put all feelings on paper,
Getting satisfaction from your written words,
And excited by new words.
Writing it all without fear of being "judged",
Writing because you can,
Writing because you should,
Writing because you must.

Acrostic poems prompt
Creativity and require to be
Read with an
Open mind,
Systematically and understood
Though understanding differs.
Inspiring more fun and
C**reative styles.

Love your SELF,
There's nothing you own so much as your SELF.
Respect your being,
You're important,you're different and with a unique purpose.
Appreciate who you are,
Even if people judge you wrongly,
If you're on the right track,keep moving.
If you don't love yourself,how will you love another?
For what you do not have,you can not give.

If all wishes came true,
The world would be
Really   messy.

You dwell in a weak body,
In flesh that gives in to temptation,
And defiles your salvation,
Immortal soul,
The body in which you live will die,
Immortal soul where shall you go???
Are you going to be safe?
In heaven above?hell somewhere?or maybe roaming the earth restlessly,
Immortal soul!!!!!!!!!
Where is your home after the flesh?
What will be your new address when your home fades to dust...
Immortal soul,I sure hope you'll go to a place of better peace and quiet,to find yourself a home with better lyrics and lines of soul soothing poetry,
Immortal soul,
Immortal soul,
Immortal soul.

Go
Ahead
And
Pen
Your
Pain.

Here's a poem to my first love,
The everlasting love,
That which no one will ever afford to give me,
The love that covers my reality,

From dirt,you picked me,
From doom you rescued me,
How wonderful is your love,
Purity,innocence beyond that of a dove,
Genuine,beautiful..
To leave your throne,
I'd be a fool,
I am your own...
So hold me closer,
Closer than ever before,
So tight that no one will ****** me from your presence,
My Lord,my Saviour,my hope..
I love you,despite my sins I love you,I need your grace everyday..
Your love is extravagant,
Loving me so dearly when I'm only a servant,
Oh how marvelous.
Marvelous is your love oh Lord,
I will forever praise you Lord for you are king of all the earth,and for this purpose you created me.

The feeling of feeling invisible;
Feels like dreams are impossible,
Because no one really sees you,
And it feels like about success,you have no clue,
And you feel you being praised isn't due,
It hurts,it feels hopeless
Until you realise that its not about who sees you,
Its about what you know is within you,
The power in your mind,the power of your thoughts.
And your will to rise above your own expectations,
Then you'll move from invisible to invincible.

Dream dreams,
Reality is harsh,but face it;
Everyone needs some hope,
Abash negativity!
Manage your fears.
See your dreams realised.

In the newspapers,
The front pages contain ******,**** defilement,******,etc
Usually on a daily basis,
Its so saddening to think that such things happen daily,
Has humanity gone to the dogs?
Children are dumped,thrown and abandoned in public toilets or streets,
I wonder where the motherly instincts of humanity have run off to,
Children killing parents for money,rituals
Has humanity gone to the dogs?
Thought our parents are our biggest treasures.
Youths losing their minds and doing all sorts of things including wrecking their own lives in the name of "fun",
Demons being entertained and angels being called fake,
Is there hope or maybe we're just nearing the end
The solution? - love.

Morning signifies a second chance,
New opportunities if you look for them and a new beginning
Let the disappointments of yesterday go,
But don't forget to learn from them..
Yesterday was,today is,tomorrow may be...

Being humble,
Helps you see life from a wider perspective.

The wind is blowing tirelessly,
Delicate flowers are falling,
Branches are all shaking vigorously,
And I learn something from them,
No matter how hard the wind may blow,
They only move,
They don't change their shapes and colours,
The flowers may fall but at some point they allow the same wind to blow them into the sky and make them fly.
So I learn that hard situations shouldn't change who we are,
We only need to adjust our attitudes,
Struggles are there to make you a victor,
Like the flower being made to fly by what brought it down,
You let your struggles elevate you.

Fly without fear of falling,
That courage I envy.*

Beautiful in their feathers,
And content without covering up.

Can not cook nor farm,
But trust their creator that they wouldn't starve.

They fly high,
Up to where they belong..
Doing what they were meant to do.

Beautify the earth as creatures of the sky.

Nature is life from which we can draw inspiration,
Looking at the trees and how they give me oxygen to cool off my perspiration,
I stand in awe and sigh as I breathe out my exasperation,
I feel like nature understands my deperation,
My desperation to fully accept that I'm part of the awesome creation,
This drives me to desire to become someones motivation..

Born through a ******,
Symbolising how pure he had to be..
How perfect he would live to be worthy of dying for all our sins..
Holy above all humanity so that if we repent in his name,we may live in his righteousness.
Glory be to the prince of peace,
Oh hail the King! Bless the Lord!
We commemorate his birth because of his greatness beyond measure... Love too big and grace too deep.

For God so loved us,
That He gave His only Son
To die for us,
And if only we believed in Him we'd be saved,
Even now,its never too late for salvation,
We all need compassion,
The goodness of a Saviour.

Opening the eyes of your heart,
Seeing things as they are supposed to be,
Being clear about what you want in life,
Setting goals,
Running after them,
Creating deadlines but not giving up if things don't work as planned..
Knowing that life won't always give you what you want,
And realising that whatever life throws at you,you can handle because life itself is enough hope..

Be yourself,don't imitate
Find out who you are;meditate

Its easier to be someone you're
  not in order to fit in,but there is
     No fulfillment in that,life isn't
         About impressing the
             Crowd.  
           At the end of it all,crowds
       Will always be there to
    applaud both your uprise and downfall,
       So what's there to really live
         For in the crowd?
           Do what fulfills you as a person,you won't live here twice.
   Do what makes you happy,
      You deserve that.

Pure endless love,
Even when I'm unworthy of being called your own,
You still take my hand in yours.
Before my existence you lived,
All mighty and awesome but you adore me,
Who am I??
What makes me worthy?
Just your love shown upon the cross,
That's what makes me worthy of your love.

Life is like a journey of a million miles,
Starting very simply,but complicated.
Conception first then birth that breeds smiles,
Adolescence steps in with its own troubles to be daily contemplated,
Adulthood too with delicate dignity and pride,
Life can be rough but its a long beautiful ride,
Life then offers its glorious crown in grey,
Something to take pride in,
And never disguise..
A show case of wisdom from deep within,
And a sign to never despise..
Not all see this glory,
And so if it is upon you,consider yourself blessed,chosen.
For nature took its time and watched you proceed with deep lessons steadily.

Thirty years ago on this day,
You vowed to be together forever.
When  I  think  of wedding vows and look around , I find the vows to have lost   their true meaning.
People are rarely together forever.
If  not  for  this  day I'd  have  lost  all  hope in  "together forever".
Real  love  is  beyond sweet names and showing off,
 It  shines behind  closed  doors where  no  one  is  there to  watch not  just  in  public.
Real lasting love is in friendship, understanding,
respect and not fear.
Its rooted in the spirit Its roots are grounded in its creator LOVE himself : GOD

Have the heart to
   Accept
      People for them,                
         Pardon peoples mistakes,
            Your own too.

Gets you tired all day,
Keeps you up all night,
***** out your strength,
Makes you think its got no cure,
But you later realise all you needed to do was to keep calm,
Be orderly and have fixed schedules.

The best thing about having
big dreams is that no one else has to believe in them for them to happen,its just you.
They're yours alone,your responsibility.
If people frown upon them,
That's their business
When you work towards making them come true,its for sure they aren't meaningless.
So don't give up!

Realities differ.
Your reality is the reflection of your belief system.

Its usually about what she hears,
So please tell her the right things,
Don't say you love her if you don't mean it,
Because either way she might believe it,
If you don't think she's good looking,that's your opinion keep it to yourself,
What's the point of you telling her anyway?
Note that not  every girl fully acknowledges her beauty,
Being soft isn't being weak,
Don't take that for granted,her softness,fast loving and beautiful nature ; that's what makes her strong,
Because it brings forth experiences which toughen her,
She's a girl,she's beautiful.

Life is cold,
Oh maybe life isn't cold.
We people are,
Making life miserable for each other.
Hating and not accepting that we were meant to love not hate.
Hate just hurts,its no good feeling.
It brings us misery and lures us into thinking its strength.
Getting rid of human life so fast!like it didn't take a process to be born. Life is sadder these days,
The news is so energy sapping.
Its hopeless,the only hope is love.
Love,accept,respect,judge less.

We don't do things because everyone else is doing them,
For us its not about impressing the crowd,
We seem odd and people wonder if its all pretence but that's who we are,
We were not meant to fit in but to stand out,
We have our own principles to live by,
We don't follow the crowd because we love to think for ourselves,
We're proud of being unique,
We love it and we have embraced it.
We don't care who judges us for it because that's who we are,
We are the **misfits

They scream so loud,I wonder how come most of us don't follow them.,
They are these voices which never stop,
They make you feel there's something you need to do,
They try to take you to the next level beyond mediocrity
But you shut them up by ignoring them,you sit on them and they get extinguished but they never die,you can always rekindle them..

Daughter of the soil,
Bathed in gold,
And clothed in black foil,
True beauty that only a real artist can mould,
Shoulders broad,waist slender and curves broad as the shoulders,
The hourglass figure in place.
Knees darkened by hard work with no boarders,
Smile that brightens her face,
And a presence that spells comfort,
A woman ; love replica
Beauty is default,
Flawless is the woman of the soil,the woman of Africa.

Sometimes
You
Have
To,
Hold your own hand,
Pat your own back,
Blow your own horn..
Not to be selfish,
But to learn to be there for your self when no one else is there for you.

Respectful
Forgiving,
Understanding,
Joyful,
Uplifting,
Selfless,­
Considerate
Appreciative,
Priceless
Forever.

The body rarely appreciates,
So however we treat it,
Eventually it depreciates.
The soul,
If we give to it,
Will grow,
Its glow is eternal.
Beautify the soul,
They way you would the body and even more,
Afterall its the inside that reflects on the outside.

You choose your path,
And when in wrath,
You choose how to react,
With people,you choose how to act,
When wrong,you choose to either accept or deny,
But the laws of nature;you can't defy
When you're wrong,you're wrong.
You can't run away from the consequences like you can from a ball when playing ping pong.

Do not give up,
You started for a reason,
Don't stop till you see that accomplished,
Shut your eyes from comparing your life to others,
Shut your ears from negativity,
Press on!
Press on!
Press on!
Even when they think you're mad and naïve press on
Great things don't come easy,
Give yourself some time,
You need to press on!
Press on and inspire someone someday.
Excellence comes with persistence.

Everything that has breath isn't something to last forever.
Time here on earth is limited.
Follow your passion;that very thing that makes your heart skip beats.
Love yourself inside out,embrace your flaws and let them rest in your strengths.
Living life to please others is a waste of breath.
We leave this earth individually and if we have to leave it with regrets then we'll bear the pain alone.
Live in such a way that when you're taking your last breath,your heart will be at peace at its last beat.

The difference between right and wrong is clear,
One is right,
The other is wrong so it has to be left.
The similarity is that both right and wrong are true,
Its either its right or its wrong.
Scaling whether something is right or wrong is quite easy,
Just dig deep within yourself and the answer lies just there.
Judging right or wrong by societal opinions is like walking into a ditch of fire.
