Pugnacious..

Like a scorpion your sting

You find it your only thing

Quarrelsome and disputatious

Of things petty even not precious

The wise went ahead and said,

"Do not

answer a fool

according to his folly,

or

you yourself

will be

just like him."

Try tame the tongue

Beside its fangs

It can disintegrate

And leave regrets

The only tool is love

Go that and have

And the scorpion will lose the sting

For love is corrective

Insouciant..

Let me be free

Yes, carefree

Free from all troubles

Free from anxiety

Free from all worry

That's all I want

You pin me tight

I can't take a flight

At my face you roar

Filling me with terror

I don't want be in pain

And myself I slain

Guide by the truth

Like how a baby you'd soothe

Then let me a step take

To survey life's lake

And if you hold my hand

In my optimism I shall land

..from an insouciant mind..

It's mine..

Strong is the spirit

Go ye forth, no relent

Tough be and let them comprehend

You are heads away from the tail

Every battle you are bound to win

As victory to you was a covenant

Fear not, for your steps are of faith

'coz your heart is  being subservient

You may suffer wounds and get scars

But your eyes are so focused to destiny

And no matter what, a crown to wear

Yes, a crown

Take a step, go forth, victory awaits..

It's yours

And when you get there

yes, "It's mine,"

you'll softly say..

Health..

What is health?

- wellness.

- the state of being free from illness or injury.

- a state of well-being or balance, often physical but sometimes also mental and social; the overall level of function of an organism from the cellular (micro) level to the social (macro) level.

All creatures do enjoy in good health

The best that any can have is health

A little ailment brings a lot of discomfort

And torments the body with threats

Illness with all sorts of names they do come

In that, we appreciate medics for support

A life of drugs to us was never intended

But when subdued in it, I pray, swim safe

A sanatorium ain't a better place to be

But without them, where would we be

Hearts pray for healing and good health

For it is worthy more far the worldly wealth

Practice simple health by your nutrition

And govern your body applying restriction

Subject your body too in field of calisthenics

For it is a great campanile, but not of bricks!

..Wish you good health..

Busy World...

There is a time 'busy' was never busy

Today, time has been replaced by 'busy'

Yes, East West North and South we do occupy

But for need of some time we need to apply

Industries and offices all round they are run

In roads, traffic,our fuel, without will, we burn

The busy term gradually taking full control

Whilst everyone with phones you'll see them scroll

Nothing wrong having things to do or to meet

Perhaps opportunities are plenty in cities' street

But what is the drive to this called 'busy state'?

Nothing much but money to fill the life's plate

So, in the right, go and seek hence you shall find

Later, when you achieve, to yourself try be kind

For what is worth after success and get destroyed?

No need, utilize to the best as you had prayed..

Taking Heights.

What heights of life to climb

For daily search of success

All around we do try to find

Like what was lost to get the bless

We sojourn here and far for victory

Just to leave behind a great legacy

See, if you survey East or West

It's all about hunt for life's best

Dad might instill virtues the hard way

Mum implement them still with no delay

People then there envy your faculty of life

But that is your parents' wisdom drive

Thank you for them that do strive

For in all life zones you'll do thrive

Victory is yours dear friends

As you try meet all ends

..all the best..

Unity.

Unity is strength

No matter the length

Yes, you can stand alone

But two are better than one

You say you do it better

But we two, 'tis more better

When you do fall

Am here for your call

When you do cry

Let one make them dry

When you stumble

I'll not let you crumble

And when in aid

It will be like all was paid

Unity conquers downfalls

Bringing good scenes as waterfalls

It strengthens  life's strings

Displaying amazing things

Come let us pull together

 Here a sister there a brother

It is worth it all

When unity gives a call

Unity is strength..

For the record...

Have you ever been interrogated?

Things that they have to know

Simple but very salient

Yes, for the record

What is your name?

Even when you are fame.

Where do you come from?

Even when you own part of the state!

What is your surname?

Even when as an adopted child.

What is your mother tongue?

Even though you are a linguistic.

Are you married?

If no, you have the potential...

..and more questions

answer as they come

as it is for the record..

No more No less

In granny's hut..

It was known every evening where the feet leads

Not even mind nor the eyes

The hut was warm, and we packed like bread in the oven

Chain of stories, what ears don't here often

As her raspy stammering speech told it all

All of us keenly lending her all ears

Deeper we sunk in the anecdote and felt real

That when she narrated you'd feel the thrill

To some point, she pinned our imaginations with fear

A wisdom way to send young to bed for a lesson they wouldn't bear

The old ma'am would only giggle and do the proceeding

As she knew how sweet was the tale feeding

History was filled in her as she spew memories

Actually, as listeners, we jumped from the present and lived the past

With gestures, sounds, mimicry she made it so lively

She was gifted that everyone was yearning for more

"hey, good night friends, tomorrow God willing," she said..

The library where all read and heard from one.

In the granny's hut..

Trouble Maker..

Your work is to watch

But with an intend to spoil

Your work is to suggest

With what that misleads

Your work is to cook

That which is rotten

Your work is to build

Where no foundation stands

Trouble maker

Your work is to write

What the eyes says illegible

Your work is to talk

That hurts innocents

Your work is to master

Taking advantage of power

Your work is to disintegrate

What was to stand strong

Trouble Maker

Giving your all..

Many things we do plan

But a times, they go undone

It is no bad to set them goals

But to them, do we accomplish?

See, everyone is talented

In anyway, it is a talent

Though we are fond of despising

Not knowing the potential therein

For what thrills in you, go meet

As long as it drives to proper merit

Fear not, an inward pressure leads

And like obliged, you'll perform

Give your all to the nation

Wide, extend it to the world

As knowledge is seen in practicals

It is a talent, worth hidden treasures

You can make it

Just a little try

A little encouragement

And we turn the world around

An if from you I ask a piece

'twill be by

Giving your all in service..

HAPPY NEW YEAR..

By God's grace, friends we have crossed

For it, it was not just to you purposed

Your efforts wouldn't too bring the new year

But here we stand cheering, Happy new Year

Here is the day

Yes, first day of the year

A new page many to open

With all their do's and do not's

In that, I hope the past will act a shadow

For the new year, I wish you victory

Just play positive in all you do

And blessings shall strain not to pour

All the best..

HAPPY NEW YEAR
