(NaPoWriMo14 Day 29) "be fruitful and multiply," He said man and woman He made them, in the beginning men looked for women women looked for men but he never gave the map or leave the clue just the heart muttering the path right or wrong blindly following the path the eyes see the light the heart feels the hurt then the search begins again I looked for him everywhere, anywhere I could not find him then I lost me I went looking for me maybe when I find me he will find me

(NaPoWriMo14 Day 28) out of the pages of your notes they filed out to caress my heart the most beautiful words I ever read right in front of me their soft touch took me to the future your sincere mind lay bare before me "I'm asking words to dance" asking them to soar with me they took a bow to do my bidding we danced and soared to the altar to the beat of "I do" the sweetest beat I ever danced to I'll never love another

Life unfolds as it is written No dictates of destiny my worries can alter While I make my plans, it follows its patterns Hoping in his pouch are days brighter I wait in prayer for what tomorrow brings Laying 'em all at the feet of the Maker He sees tomorrow, He can heal my sorrow Hoping He makes do His promises to the latter

Strife of Voices

( NaPoWriMo14 Day 24 ) Another day of the sun is here At birth for the strife of voices The babies grow biggger and bigger Wailing louder and louder One over the other In a strife to triumph over one another One in songs of praise The other in divine guidance It's like a battle between the two Who makes the loudest noise A dance of superiority A war of mediocrity I wonder who wins the banter Undecided to rejoice That it's not of violence As it is now of noise
Today

(NaPoWriMo14 Day 22) Today on the heels of tomorrow Right from its birth All through the deep dark night Till the light of the morn "When will tomorrow be?" "Tomorrow never is" We are today in pursuit of tomorrow Chasing it all day today I have it now, we think Secure in the folds of our palms Letting loose when sleep our eyes closed At light the search begins again Today matters most That we fail to remember Not yesterday, gone forever When we die all over Tomorrow is another When we know not the better Today is ours to matter When we live again I become today It's all I have

(NaPoWriMo 14 Day 18 ) Let all people with gladness sing With joy for His glorious reign Christ the King lives, His praises ring Let all the people with gladness sing The empty tomb, His victory bring The guards at the tomb watched in vain Let all people with gladness sing With joy for His glorious reign
A Reminder

(NaPoWriMo14 Day 16) The black blue sky breaks light As each star appears Winking and twinkling To the rhythm of the night The clouds swiftly moved Giving way to the rising moon Each in her heavenly beauty Each to her earthly duty A reminder of the first night When he ordered the light to be Only man ceased to be What He intended him to be

(NaPoWriMo14 Day 14) A little supplication from my mouth to His ears for this special day Life might hurl all sorts of things at you today Stuffs that make you want to curse the day Stuffs you accept without a sigh all day Just keep holding on through the day Never let go today Never complain about the day Choice will befriend you someday Your eyes will live to see the day God will grant you a token for good one day
A Gift for Keeps

(NaPoWriMo Day 12) This is a poem written by a very good friend of mine. It talks about the meaning in a name this one is about my name(Olufunke). I'm sharing it here because it's also my day and a very special one. I feel so rich to be so blessed by such wonderful friends and great family. They made it so easy. Love you all. A gift given for keeps A treasure uncommon In care given To watch her grow A life of gold A plate of bronze A mirror unbroken Smashed yet reflect A rare gift of time A huge space for season Yet her in search A gift given for keeps This poem "Birthday" is dedicated to me by a friend for my day today. I'm really honoured to be so blessed Birthday New minutes and Hour! New days and new week! Before life understand! It have added together with sand! Some life has been ground! Ye they have been bound! Now plus with new month! General party is ...
My Tattoo, My Triumph

(NaPoWriMo14 Day 11) The battle between good and evil Between life and death From the consumption of the fruit To the birth of its seeds Pain and sorrow The siblings of death Angels of the night Sneaking up on my soul Like the cowards that you are Never whisper or whistle Feeding on my body Leaving behind these tattoos With your hatchet and hoe Hacking down my tree Limb by limb Bit by bit Cutting deep into my soul I am the prey I am your victim I am the slave Of fate and chance You are the warrior I am the shepherd Beating you at your game I am stronger than you Your lesson my weapon Happiness my helmet Patience and perseverance My sword and shield Love my compass Guiding me through the night I am a conqueror These tattos you left behind My seal of championship And on my parched lips The tale of my triumph

(NaPoWriMo14 Day 10) what I seek in life I found in you the apex of my desire being without you my greatest dread you flow in me like a river current I get tipsy, just thinking of you passion flood through me at the sound of your voice I want to be with you inside you beside you beneath you take me away and further away to that land far away where nothing else matters where time and sun stand still

(NaPoWriMo14 Day 8 ) I know not what lies in his heart The eyes and the mind give no hint I know not if his love is genuine Nor if it be as true as mine I know not who he thinks of Whether it be of lust or love I know not the beat in his heart Nor if it dances to my heartbeat I do know what lies in my heart My eyes and heart give the light This passion in me must breed This ache in it must be filled

(NaPoWriMo14 Day 7) Had I known what life held I would make ready, always on guard Afore my eyes made a flutter Swimming blindly in blood and water If I knew how the battle'd be won I would make ready my weapon of war Shield and armour gleaming in the light When not favoured I speed my flight If I knew where the line's hottest Ready and steady to the front Forward to the line fighting for freedom To survive, all foes must face If I knew what life would hold I would wait for it to unfold Layer after layer no running to and fro Taking each day like the gift it was

(NaPoWriMo Day 6) I am a vessel of honour In the house of the great master A living sacrifice for him A light to light the path for all Whether wood, clay, gold or silver I am a vessel of honour Bought with a price, His precious blood All that I am to Him I yield A broken vessel, a dishonour Conformed to sin and lust for world I am a vessel of honour Sanctified for the master's need From all youthful lust must flee Never dishonour His holy name Embrace all things holy and pure I am a vessel of honour

( NaPoWriMo Day 5) Silky smooth soft spread Cramped legs and wrinkled sheet Streaming sun through the curtain Dancing on an angelic face A crescent smile adorned her lips Would think that enough To soften his stony heart The hard set of his jaw Eyes shooting fire from across the room Crushed the ecstasy of the night before When time honoured their union The loud unspoken words Whispered the death of the morning after As time stood by the only witness When it smothered their passion And never move again

A child knows to cry Before he knows the word He learns to smile Before he forms the word He loves a friendly face Before he learns the name He masters the face of a foe Before he masters his name He knows to deceive Before he captures the word It is in man to do good It is in man to do evil Both implanted in him Along with the will to choose He has the power to choose Who enslaves him

Happy National Poetry Writing Month for 30 Days of April. This blog..."where talent and personality bring forth quality"........is going to feature a poem a day through this month. God helps me :) This is my first attempt at participating in National Poetry Writing and I'm glad to take the first step. So take me as I am. The prompt for this poem is from the Bibliomacy oracle. <em>"Reality is usually a poor copy of the imitation. The original is an echo of what is yet to be." - </em>Me and My Pharaoh by Charles Bernstein #NaPoWriMo day2 <strong> A Puff Of Air</strong> <em>In you I found the answers I sought</em> <em>Embrace your promise of eternal love</em> <em>Peace so sweet the river cowers</em> <em>Happiness so deep the ocean cannot fathom</em> <em>In your arms I found relief</em> <em>From p...
