Life

life life oh God given life
you and me given without strife
i'll say life comes from life
if i lie read science, religion about life

oh wonderful life how long more
to stay for mans heart grows sore
as he found for the earth it has core
but for life only mysteries more and more

the one who made life for man
and made it for great and small man
i know everything you can
grant he so we enjoy it as breeze fan

The fool

You lack intelligence
so it makes you wise with indigent intelligence
go meet your friends your fellow
empty head and just a hollow
if you disagree, hit your head, hear sound that follow
your words like where frogs solo

i crave your indulgence
pray ask for wisdom, intelligence
aimlessly walking from coast to coast
with head now ignorance toast

look for a way to be groomed
if you continue this way, you are fore-doomed
argue and shout no more
rather yourself do restore.

U and us 1

so the candle burns lightening the room
and giving heat like two bodies touching at noon
i will sit and wait till the time is set
and ripe for me to stick my neck and bet
until it burs to a point when the room is lit up
then i know that its time to take up

you are to my countenance joy
and to my heart conquering like troy
your eyes pierce my heart
leaving me no option than in love to act

come i'll stroke your hair
don't leave me oh! lady fair
go nowhere rather sit on my lap
while i admire you and to the almighty lower my cap

Rainfall

Tiny droplets of water pouring, falling
at before evening; hear thd clouds calling
the sky dark, breeze, swift wind
as the leaves try to form wedge wind
oh..what beauty of the air
as i try to control the wave my hair
people worried and excited run about
some happy, some not, run north and south

so the drops fall hamering the ground
the dust it raised made i frowned
waters the earth leaving moistured sand
and its little droplets fall from trees hand
in happy frowning i get my bucket
as it stopped, it left crying the cricket
me; snake had good time slippery, sleeping
in darkness i was groping, toads were gleeing.

U and Us 3

Since the day we met along
we sang ourselves the world a new song
even as we see our face
every and all over the place
us is like fresh bright rose; admirable
in a farm of, but unaffected by thistle
from afar i see you still
walking lonely and slowly still
let our hearts beat for each other
let our passion flow through our veins

let no situation hinder us or block
but our love flow like spring from rock
fine, pure, natural and healthy
and with lips and heart we sign a treathy

listen damsel to the voice of my pen
hear the shivering strokes of its ink
it curdles our heart like chicks of a hen
also keeps us amongst black as pink

Thanks

A sign of emotive fulfillment
used for, create pschological accomplishment
is needed be in all human attitude
another name which is gratitude
its absence makes owls hoot
humans need learn it from their root

encouraging and happy gyrate
its product or i'll say it does create
what a wonderfull thing; giving thanks

now wedging my chin i ponder
as i sit, stare, i wonder
trying to understand in its essence
the eruption of its volcanic presence

imagine as the rocks break
pouring lava of happiness from the heart break
whose crater filled; when overflowing, tears of joy

My Mother

Who watched me in bed cradle
and when life brought storm, made good use paddle
and fought with gods to make me live
with hope watered me tree even i hadn't leaf

who cried when i fell ill
and if i died pwore herself to kill
motivated her husband solomon of wise counsel
for she was in his song the damsel

what a creature with beauty and preety
as nature had her be dark and lovely
for whom i'll stake my head for a treathy
cos though discipline was still humble and comely

stood to be a mother of nations
kept apart and head of gods feminine creations
wonderfully her children did groom
which made them stick together as broom

U and Us 2

Like a golden amongst eggs
so it is you stand amongst eggs
with tendeq soft heart
with it we love grow fat

i will not give up on it
untill i know who the shoe best fit
oh i think i've found the person
though i preffered big boob, slim abdomen
now i love the way you are
despite my choice that went too far

your skin as shiny as olive fruit
and lips ar dark and sweet as strawberry
your eyes show as flowing crystal stream
and nose finely as hills surrounding jerusalem
stay with me i plead
that we may write ourselves a love creed
to bind us till deceased
come to me let us roam wild and freed

Gaff

Oh what a wonderfull moses staff
that works wonders deleting laugh
and traps all man that from life way stray
leaving his sumppuous body to rot and throw away
now listen to my noisy wisper
the cause of my brave horse's wimper
listen to the secret of life
the source and end of husband and wife

thn words you read now is the earths wicket
hear the whistling
words of the widgeon and cricket
it says that for life only one can fortell
he is the one to you, i tell
that same is he, the secret of life
tis he that bid us live without strife

its him that holds the knife and life
he is the father without wife
now here is the secret
