RHYTHMS OF GRACE

 


I began studying  your pattern

That majestic rhythmic movement

Oh how it flows like the spring

Giving an untamed harmony like the fountain

Your royal movement brings acceptance to the rejected 

Your touch makes the unseen becomes seen

Your countenance is a billboard that shows the way to pure Love

I began studying your pattern so I've said

That glow that emanates from you

Oh how jealous you make the sun feel

How dark the moon is in comparison to you

The stars are mere bling-bling compared to your light

Again, I began studying your pattern

That majestic rhythmic movement

  1. Beautiful piece Sir.
    The wonders of our maker.

    If Grace was a person, it would be called "BLESSING" because it has been a blessing to me, and I'm certain it has been to you too.
    Well done sir.

  3. If grace was a person I would name it love cause for me, it is an undeserved love I receive daily from the father. He love me so much, he won't let no harm or hurt come near me. What I lost through my foolishness, he restored and upgraded. Grace is undeserved love for me.

  4. If grace was a person, it would be characterized as another chance, not a second chance or the last chance. Just another chance. The chance He gives is endless. The forgiveness He gives is unlimited. His love is reckless, unfathomable, FULL.

    Thank you for this, Sam.

ANOTHER FEMINIST POEM

Hello Mr . Man!   Now I need you to listen carefully to another feminist poem As a woman I'm going to tell you how strong I am,  How independent I can be,   And most of all, how opinionated I assume myself to be  But not like you normally hear it.  I am independent enough to know where I'm lacking  But sometimes I need you to point it out because I forget Independent enough to get myself what I want, when I want But I'll still love a little surprise from you...  It warms my independent little heart  I'll pin my feet on the ground and say that when the wind comes Me, myself and I are gonna keep my feet steady But I want a hype man to tell me I can do it  I have opinions too, it bruises my ego when you don't let me talk Oh you don't think I have an ego? Her name's Dora She's always exploring and trying to find things that are lost or hidden  She doesn't take no for an answer But she's always seeking help Mr. Man,  you know that

THE NIGERIAN SYNDROME

  Nigerian syndrome Everything has to be a lie, or not completely true It's just too good to be true How can it be that cheap? How can it be this simple? No not here; not in this country You can't just give me a free lift; you definitely want something from me How can you offer a voluntary service? No not here; not in this country You saw the money in a bag and you didn't pick it up? That's hard to believe; impossible I would say I could go on and on about this matter But hear me Ingenuity exists, so does genuity  Don't forget that Flee from this syndrome By: Sambasy

HEART-FELT

  It's amazing how far we've come and how farther we've decided to go I agree that a few times, we've spent some seconds trading anger places But running at a loss time and again During those times, my realization of what you are and mean to me  Becomes even deeper than I can imagine  I know again that you are that special someone with the special package—the whole package I agree that sometimes I have chosen cowardice over being a hero but it's fine  I will keep growing, though, and learning to be more fierce in battle  I'll be here making sure I win with you, for you and us Par: Ever

SCARS

I thought I was happy  But superficial excitement was all I had  I thought I was living the life  The life of the big guys  I had said to myself  "you're a big boy" In my realm I was the 'eye-catch' I thought I was living the life  The life of the big guys Little did I know that I was hurting  I was blinded by excitement  I was in a thick darkness  But then You found me Your light healed me of blindness  I saw  I saw the deep injuries on me I cried  I wept I screamed  I became frightened  Oh! What have I done?  How could I be so stupid?  I condemned myself  I was so filthy Then again,  Your light healed me of ignorance  "you have been bought with a price My love for you will not end My blood has made you whole  This is true, you must believe " I was happy  But what about my scars?  Though they're still there,  I won't feel ashamed  I'll wear them as my batch My batch of testimony  I love my scars Cause t

CHEER FOR ME

I want to write Please let me know you'll read this Show me that the words I have taken so long to craft Is what you stare at in magnificent awe With your mind trying so hard to comprehend Because I won't paint this picture again It may take so long for this canvas to be filled again Beautifully painted brush strokes of As and Bs You'll see these become something beautiful Promise me that you'll read this And I will have the strength to pick up another paint brush Promise me that you'll read this And I promise to write again even if you don't.  PAR : Ivy Esera             12/01/2020 Let us know what you think about this piece in the comment box
