WHAT IF TOMORROW NEVER COMES BY JOSEPH-SAM SARAH

Image
Sunset overcomes the peace of still night The rain triumph in winter Thunder strikes when its subdue anger rise Paranoia conceive visible trust and confidence But if tomorrow never comes. The blind robs falsehood of its savings The rich saves up for generational seconds Change beget power from grudges Eventually ending in the belly if sins But what if tomorrow never comes. Twinkles behold the eye of lightening Trees watch quietly to the tune of roaring wind Imitations continuously beat the heart of married belief Rivers flow like tides of blind distress But what if tomorrow never comes. Tongues gnash their teeth with enjoyment Tormenting ache becomes substitute for sweet death Hollow widens above singular threat The world paint itself while sinking in seas But what if tomorrow never comes.

My little chat with a crying boy By Paul_Speaks

He shed tears with all his strength and looked confused, I moved close to him grabbed his hands and asked why he cried this hard, at first he wasn't responding because the reason for his tears took all he had, in no time I was also shedding tears like I already knew what had happened... When he saw the drops roll down my jaw he murmured and said ' It's 2 weeks I lost my parent and i have been abandoned and without help (in Yoruba) . As if I wasn't even shedding tears at first I started crying like I knew him from Adam, I drew him closer and told him YOU WILL SURVIVE, not because of anything but because you still breath and because no matter how the night falls the morning will surely come. The boy held me and said please I want to make it, I want to survive and I told him : You've started surviving and you have started making it, don't just say what you just told me act it... I took some time to pray with him.. He felt calm later and told me maybe

That Great Year!!! By Akindele Jomiloju

THAT' GREAT YEAR!!! The mighty Trees fell Wind blew incessantly Storm went crazy The Moon looses its elegance The stars lost it sparkle Yet I survived My compass lost its direction The sailors lost the ship to the waves The Toad refuses to croak but crackles Yet,I survived I buzzed, I mumbled, I babbled And blabbed That I had no shoe Then I saw a toddler without a leg With smiles on her beautiful face She shook her head and said, "I survived" Then I realised how blessed I am Of ingrates,I am chief Because HE lives, I'll survive
