An empathetic mindset and love are what we need for a better world. It’s utterly monstrous weather out there. Each time the breeze touches my skin, I shudder and sneeze. I’m cuddled on the bed, clutching a phone in one hand in a dark room, too lazy to read or even find a light. No… Continue reading Reflection: A Cold World

Amuse: A Letter to the Squirrels Living in my Roof
New landlords Okay guys, I traveled to my country home or just say my village. I was welcomed by squirrels racing on the rooftop. I thought it was a cat at first but cats don’t fly on tree branches. I finally saw one skinny squirrel holding his chin. It wouldn’t wait for me to get… Continue reading Amuse: A Letter to the Squirrels Living in my Roof

Amuse: The Hen’s tale
First she walks for a while and then turns to stare… She cackles, laughing at the appearance of these slim aliens Wandering about, aimlessly, pushing all manner of carts And wearing all manner of fleshy things that smell awful One thing is peculiar: these humans change their skins each day, And it is unclear why… Continue reading Amuse: The Hen’s tale
Musing: Stressful Days

The Rainbow, 1st
1 The rainbow is my favorite color Her beauty radiates upon the cloud Dressed like a man wearing a talisman Savoring the scent of the sweet airs, A mirage because the rain won’t fall after all 2 There sits the rainbow across the firmaments Watching quietly, observing the rules of the airs Belittling the heights of… Continue reading The Rainbow, 1st
My muse: Rejoice
My heart rejoices, but why I can not say! The sun has risen, the land is golden The firmaments are bright, blue and grey Dews melt, trees dance, flowers open I rejoice for the lights which has come For the love which I see all about me For the little fine hamlet I call home… Continue reading My muse: Rejoice
The sun set behind me
I see my shadows in front of me
It was just evening fast approaching
I was a traveler known to myself
Running from the world, living in my own
I walk the hard way, to come back for more another day
Though trying to cut of every dismay felt, I must say
No one cares, no one wants to share
Painting the dying world, yet no one says a word
So I hide myself in my confidence, one on Gods providence
Hoping to see the light, never to give up the fight
But I sat in the dark thinking I would become the Batman
When myself will humbly say, ”it is not possible good brother
You can’t make a difference sitting in one quiet spot”
So I stopped running…
Reach my hands
Help me stand firm
Draw me close to Your embrace
Let me see the beauty of Yout Love
Teach my heart
To do the needful
To slay not time in any way
But to master the seasons of wealth
Touch my words
That I may speak only wisdom
Let my lips heal, paint love, draw warmth to all
Let my speech dry the tears of the broken
Take my feet to places,
Where the sands are gold
That I may behold beautiful lands
And savor the strength of the young Cheetah
Give me strength, give me…
Trust me with Your power
That I may soar above the skies
Let me be what Your Love is
Yells, cries of children disturb the nights silence
In the moonlight they dance, they play in the distance
Casting shadows upon the lonely tree’d pathway
Tumbling on sands, caring not for neither man nor scorpion
They make figures, people and tall castles of clay
Happily they yell, desiring nothing under the queer moon
Meanwhile the wind blow, the mosquitoes flee
Wild trees swerve like a mad reggae dancer
Children noises mix with the dancing windy trees
As the young night went black and darker
Harbinger of Sahara news, king of the queer dust I hail you
Your entourage of heavy sand storms and dunes
Display her works of art on our glass windows and faces
You give us wonderful attire, a ghostly look
We wonder, we make guesses of why you love the dust
She paints everything; flowers, careless food, the pond
And worst of all, the innocent faces we carry about
But when your strength goes, we have air void of your asunder
The feet crack, the lips go extremely dry
No one knows your origin, even the nomads
The camels, the horses smell you and grunts hard
And when your dust meets our water, it gives another scent
Where the rivers flow, you carry your dust to
So if we escaped from your the city’s airy dust
We run into the embrace of the river mudded clay
Trees stand aghast, confused of what is becoming
But alas, you come and go
You and your cruel crew
So where next are you going to,
And why must you paint us so?
The Tree leaves fall
Permit me a sec before reading this piece. I am pained to see the world destroy green life, I feel the grieve of these wonderful creatures, I feel even worse knowing I might not be able to save all the trees from the cruelty of my own kind. You all know that the trees are… Continue reading The Tree leaves fall
Amuse: Poetale of a town boy
I have become the village belle Just that in fact, I am not a girl Nene was so good in eulogizing me She sang of my praises even when I did nothing She told the villagers about my escapades in the city She told them of my big eye glasses and how it fit my… Continue reading Amuse: Poetale of a town boy
I wish I could smile forever
Sometimes it does not come so
I wish I was to pick comely flowers
Out in the fields where grain grow
I wish I could help the dying world
Though it seems some wish otherwise
I wish the nights are free of the cruel cold
For those who have no shelter or house
I wish that mankind loves one another
And help to wipe tears of the oppressed
I wish that it would rain and the waters
To the hungry lands of the farms flood
I wish I could ride a white horse on a joyful hue
In the lonely mornings thru the countryside
I wish you could see how much I loved you
And that nothing would make me leave your side
