THE MIRACLE BIRTH


It really was a miracle birth
The birth of He who conquered death
Not conceived by the seed of man
Born of a holy clan
Born of an incorruptible seed
Oh! What a miracle kid.

The angels sang and announced
The stars smiled and were pronounced.
Born in little Bethlehem,
Healing came from His garments helm.
In a manger He lay,
Born to show us the way.

Born to die and rise again,
Had to go through rain and pain
Now above the clouds He lives
Everlasting love and life He gives
C’mon and sing Hallelujah to the king
Earthly choirs rise and sing.

Let us rejoice and sing
Ding dong ding the bell rings
I hear the heavenly choirs too
He came for you and you
C’mon and sing Hallelujah to the king
Sing Hallelujah to the king!!!

AN ODE FOR MY LOVE

My soul longs for you,

my heart beats for you,

my flesh reaches for you.

you are my heartbeat,

you are my everything.



My days are clumsy without you
I dash my foot against stones,

my language is utter gibberish.

My nights are unending without you

Insomnia becomes my very companion,

I can't wait for the morning light.



You make my life so beautiful

you are the definition of beauty,

You are love in its fullness,

Your love has arrested me.

I will forever be a prisoner

in this jail of your love.



You took away my dark past

when your love came in.

Your love is greater than life!

I will forever be a prisoner

in this jail of your love





I regret my naive days

when I mistreated you.

I regret my foolishness

when I took your love for granted.

Love endures all things, so you held on

How on Earth can I repay you?

A million thanks won't be enough!



You are my treasure, my one desire

My muse, the air I breathe.

Thank you for loving me!

John 15:13

"Greater love hath no man than this,

that a man lay down his life for his friends"

A TWIST TO LIFE


Life they say is a mystery,
We all soon become history.
Life I say is busy,
People everywhere like zombies.

Life I say is crazy,
No food for the lazy.
Life I say is wavy,
Frequencies make you dizzy.
Oh! I feel all queasy.

We strife ‘coz we aint informed
We strife ‘coz we ain’t reformed.
Now let us be on guard.
Lads times are hard
Lasses free your fads.

MY BIRTHDAY POEM (365)

It's another 365,

It's time to give all you have,

Not just a time to jive.

Enough existence, it's time to live,

Enough impurities, it's time to sieve.

Let's begin to weave,

It's another 365.


Funny how days go by,

Funny how many died.

Funny the times you cried,

Rib cracking the times you laughed.


It's the dawn of a new day for you!

It's the beginning of beginnings for you!

It marks an emancipation for you!

It marks a liberation for you!

It marks a new year for you!

It is the dawn of a new day...


Forgetting the past 365,

Working with everyday of the new 365.

Forgetting your past slacks,

And pressing towards the ultimate mark.


Count to 365... I know it took long

Look back at 365... I bet it was short

But how about looking forward to 365...

I look forward to 365...

HAVE YOU

Have you ever done something so evil, 
          you felt like the devil?
Have you ever felt so ashamed,
you wished a whirlwind would take you away?
Have you ever felt so disappointed 
          in someone you appointed?


Have you ever felt so much pain
          you couldn't fight back the tears?
Have you ever put your best in something

         only to get as much as nothing?
Have you ever been so vexed
         you could tear a lion apart?


 Have you ever been so scared 
          inexplicable how you got wet?
Have you ever been so broke
          hardly could you afford a coke? 
Have you ever been jilted

          and reminisce  how you were treated?




Have you ever been mistreated 
          yet you were patient and waited?
Have you ever been misinterpreted
         even after you consistently repeated?
Have you ever been so hungry 
         you thought you'lld die?




Have you ever been so embarrassed
         you wished the ground would swallow you?
Have you ever wished you were never born?




If at one time or another ,
you've had one such experience or worse
but you're alive today to read this
then you'll understand that truly
'whatever doesn't kill you ...
can only make you stronger'...
