Wake up to a bright new day,
A day filled with promises and enthusiasm,
Look higher than high,
Letting go of the moments of unjust;
Monday stares at you while you wrap yourself in the quest,
Tools picked out of the crumble,
Lo Monday here I come to conquer,
Goals set,
Action taken,
Motion in progress,
Achievements realized,
Victory is mine for the taking,
I AM A WINNER!!!
Peace derailed
from layer to layer
beneath the corrupt hawk lies
living flamboyantly
like there’s no tomorrow.
Laws bastardized
injustice to the poor
the pretentious snake looking for prey
the strong are growing frail
insecurity reigning, smiles fading.
Follow not
the ways of the careless jug head
stand firm, wail until you are heard.
write, until the books are full
knock, until the doors are open.
Peace be recovered
Lawlessness redefined
Follow the path to a great nation.

Storm raged my inner being
almost wrenched out my heart
with fierce agony, I walked down the streets
dogs barking at me
flies created settlement in my filthy hair
I staggered around dragging my feet
nowhere to go
while contemplating suicide
the lord appeared
he wiped away my tears
held me in his arms
fed me
clothed me
he shamed the demons
and set me free
here I am today, the storm is over
I can see the light now as heaven has smiled down on me.
I have always loved this song written and produced by R. Kelly, it was released back then in year 2000. Please enjoy it as much as I do. It’s a music that will take you back memory lane, ginger your spirit, revive your inner mind, set you on the motion path of inspiration to determination, to survive and succeed regardless of all obstacles.
Storms will always wither away, just if only we are patient and believe we will make it. We all go through storms, no one on this earth is an exception, the strong one will stand the test of time.
Everyone including me has a story to tell, the good, bad, ugly and stimulating ones. We shall have good stories to tell as we remain firm, strong and faithful for others to learn from it and also have hope to move on.

I set out on a journey with high expectations.
I met tribulations, trials, rage, stampede,
I cried from pain,
I feared for my life,
I stumbled in shame,
I fell from being tired.
I said to myself,
I never knew the journey would be this tough.
Along my way, they appeared to me,
Knowledge,Wisdom, Understanding,
Each one of them showed me the light,
They said to me successful people are not gifted;
They just work hard,
Then succeed on purpose,
Never give up.
I rose up unsure of what awaited me,
I moved on with determination,
But cried out in confusion,
Can a journey be this far?
Can a journey be this tough?
Can I survive this journey?
Can I stand the test of time?
Why so much thunderstorms?
Why is the road so rough and narrow?
I dried my tears never giving up.
I continued with the journey,
I walked with bold steps.
I brought out the sword with the words,
Which I had long forgotten,
And it said to me;
Trust in the Lord on your long journey.
Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord,
And whose hope the Lord is-Jeremiah 17:7
There was a rough tousle of wind,
And I heard,
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And do not rely on your own understanding.
Acknowledge him in all your ways,
And he will make your paths straight- Proverbs 3:5-6.
I have journeyed far,
The journey has turned me into a success story.
A journey everyday that has unfolded passionate discoveries.

My heart,
Transparent like a glass,
See through my innocent soul.
Trying to pave through my heart?
Tender as it is?
Do you not see?
that mounting on my heart,
shatters me,
to bits and pieces too tiny,
cannot be put back into shape.
Can be shaped back together?
How?
Will it be the same again?
Same way it was before?
Or stronger?
Like starting all over again?
Why then treat heart that way?
When all you have to do,
is to tread with care,
not break heart into pieces,
care for heart as you care for your life.
