Yearn

Everywhere we hear about trust To build each other we just need to trust To confess, we believe, it builds up our faith To hide the whole Word, it strengthen our faith The Word puts to practice, its heart is in action To do good than say, gets a better reaction To hope for the things that are yet unseen Is but a believers dream, still he yearns for the unseen

Sheaf

They look at me yet not see me They listen to me yet not hear me They touch me yet not feel me They talk yet dont comprehend me Just a shadow upon this earth Floating, flying see me crying Sailing, soaring hear me crying Dancing prancing feel me dying A feather so insignificant blowing A spot, a sheaf of life I moaneth.

Tiger

Tiger, tiger in the night light Burning so radiant in the moon light How long will you shine your radiant light? So majestic your stripes aglow Tiger, tiger so magnificent and divine You roam the jungles forests and pines How long will you shine your radiant light? So majestic your stripes aglow Tiger, tiger your coats of gold You look so fierce and are so bold How long will you shine your radiant light? So majestic your stripes aglow We stand together and join the fight To ensure your life should be our right We pledge no longer to fade your light So majestic your stripes aglow

My Deliverer

Everywhere I turn darkness seems to lurk The shadows reaching out to take a hold of me Surrounded by fears and untold pain, I hear you have been delivered from all your fear ‘I have you safe in the palm of My hands’… Whenever I am lost and so weary The world around seems so crazy Surrounded by all the chaos and confusion My hope is in Him my Fountain of Strength He makes me rise on eagles wings The foolishness of the world around me Its ideals seem to be thrust deep within me Surrounded by foolishness and its fruits I learn, my God is beside me to guide me The foolish He takes and shames the wise’ The weak and the lowly He makes strong Broken scorned and died so now I am strong His obedience became for us wisdom from God Strengthened with wisdom and love from above For the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom

Grandpa

My Grandpa with his stick and hat Would be up and out at six All dressed up and so grand He would be out till noon Hed then drag in a dear friend or mate And ensure that he has a full plate By sun down he is out and about To sing with his friend down the street Fenny for his night time company While regaling us with stories of old And as he prays and prepares for bed Plans for the next day fill up his head.

Airborne

I recall an instance so vivid and clear Its image in my mind not so much a blear I m taken back to a place and time When I was on the plane my first time My parents friends decided to take It upon themselves to watch over me And calm all my nerves, a herculean task As I moved, around screaming and yelling For my mom and dad whom I did not see They sang and tried all they could to cheer me But in vain for I was crying in pain Wanting to see those that I love As the plane soared high in the sky To console me they then began to lie Look out the window at the clouds Your family then youll see Floating high upon the clouds I looked down and lo below I saw my parents on a cloud They were so far below They didnt hear me shout I begged them not to leave me here Alas! They didnt even hear That all I wanted was them near When suddenly the clouds parted With it my parents departed Just like magic vanished in thin air Leaving me with bitter memories Of my first air borne day!

The need of the hour

Education is the need of the hour Doesnt matter the place or the tower If the village and the city are to meet Education is what they need The 2020 vision is at reach Not until the two ends meet To fulfill our entire nations need The village and the city meet Education for all will put a spoke In the minds of all who vote Words from those who bribe the nation With false hope and endless propagation
