The long legs of the antelope have been broken
The beautiful ones we all admired.
Poor antelope, she wept
all the way as she was brought back home.
I left with my pride now they are gone
how do i feed my children,she mourned
They took everything from me she wailed
They fed on my pride.

Have you ever been in love, I asked? It depends on your definition he replied . You young people have your definition of love, we old ones have ours. So tell me, what is your definition of love, i insisted. He paused and stared into space for sometime, like someone seeing something that can't be seen, with a smile he said, its who you call home pointing towards his aged pretty wife who was busy with her chores. If the one you call love is not home he said still looking at her,then it's not love . Do not invest in it,little one, he finished looking at me making sure I understand his point and I nodded in deep thought.

I have my destination,
was hoping for a ride that will take me there.
Then i found Give Me A Chance
Looking promising and strong .
I hopped in for its word, thinking
It will be at its best
Give Me a Chance was just a gloss.
It never made it to the destination
Just like everyother ride i have tried.
Again I am back on foot and my journey continues .

Hello beautiful,
the world awaits your Rising.

a sail,forget about the sea dramas
nature will always play its course
Safe landing balls down to who captains your Ship. Is it You, did you give the power to others or to God?

because they can make me sniffle
and God!how I hate the feeling.
Less heed to pins
could lead to bleed
Little or no care
brings in tear
and just a little love
like a bouquet 💐
to liven up the day or
a favourite dish to humor the day, can make more than a little
difference .

that I need you to have my back
so I can enjoy my swing ride and you need me too.

Thank you for those times
you stayed
when you had every reason
to walk away......
you still stayed.
I gave up on me
but you believed
and laughed at my shadow
that vanished at the first
sign of darkness.
You were no warrior
but your belief....
you gave it your all.
When the prize is won
if ever your strength fails
I will still say,"Cheers to those
that stayed,to those that fought
to loyalty and comradeship,
to life and winning
and to you my friend,
till forever ".

The child has come
The child has come
But before you sound the drums
pray !tell,is it a giver or a carrier
a giver it is we were told
then sound the drums
another hand for the field
what if its a carrier,
Someone asked,
then make merry,
another goldmine is found.
