Near

Far I don't like it when you go

Leaves me cold as by the wind am blown

Every time my phone rings

Of you memories fill sweet things

All around my world you paint love

That nothing else I'd ever have

Just need you nearer than near

For you drive away lone and fear

Your presence keeps me warm

Safe, held by your strong arm

Distance, am hunting you mercilessly

To cage you forever and eternally

For what I like and love please be near

You are the treasure I value so dear

But if you have to go, open your heart

Then me in there and it wouldn't hurt

Since around you, I belong...

Lost?

So much was he treasured

But it ended at the grave

He was honorably buried

Last respects they gave

'Is all lost?', friends did ask

He was unique, one of a kind

Covering all like the husk

Preaching unity, all to bind

Would you really say lost?

No, actually, he ran his race

His mission at hearts he post

And he settled down his case

Nothing is lost

Just a space of time

And heavens will host

Those stood by the line

We know not what morrow brings

But faith and hope in us holds

Promising inside like wed rings

Keeping us firm in respective folds

...it is never lost...

Extra Mile

Nothing you'll ever do that will satisfy

No matter the formula you do apply

Extra mile you'd want to scamper

In attainment yourself to pamper

Watch keen as your steps you stride

And don't you be drifted by life's tide

Your natural wisdom will count

Exploit it like the only fount

Men will always vie for the extra mile

Since their stores they want to pile

Slumber not when you are full of ability

At ease, show power of your integrity

It is chasing for the extra mile

Where gratification adds not all while

That the need of mining may increase

And acts of laziness in depths decrease

Your effort will always be blessed

Victory glowing from what you faced

Fear not to go for the extra mile

When the fundamental you want to file..

Blended with venom!

Of all that she did evil was present

When will she ever do just a thing decent

She woke up with the sun from the East

She tarried not from her work before sunset

But what was her plot all while the days?

Disfigure, devastate any that humbly lays

Her own parentage she'd simply execute

For her personal gain, both ugly and cute.

To her, terminate to acquire was her theory

And after its application, a story in history

A warm welcome she will offer anyone

Alas if you fall on her list, 'one by one'

Notable repast for you will be blend by venom

That she'll enjoy your quietus like any norm

Yes, she needs more of material than you

Her giant doting being sweet-sour and untrue.

Go slow as you see her signs being evident

And be enriched with wisdom to avoid accident

Her bait is blended with venom

So, near her, never try to roam!

Seed..

Not only of what you sow

But even of words you spew

Did you know the chem in a grain

Actually, it brings forth of its kind

A bean seed can't produce a maize plant

So, you reap what you sow

Same way in life

What do you feed your mind?

Is it what that tells all who you are?

Yes, good or evil you'll display.

Take heed of what you eat.

Take heed as you digest it.

Take heed when utilizing it.

To others heart, sow healthy seed

And the best in them you shall see.

For every seed brings forth after its kind..

Never!

Never a time for me to despair

For if I, ages will I live to repair

What then do I need to be bold?

When success is as a story told!

A step empowered with confidence

A mind filled will bulk prudence

Focus on what your inside says right

And slog like never, day and night

Though my victories may be delayed

But am firm as it's not being denied

As long as I have breath

I'll conquer all width and breadth

That is from the unfathomable spirit

A waning heart should adopt it

Never give up when its at your face

No matter your pace you'll win the race

Say never to despair

Whenever you cover all in prayer..

Stand out..

To the workplace by zeal you landed

From many your papers were honored

Everyone knew the potential you got

You had to utilize it not letting it rot

But now here comes colleague pressure

Filled with indifference as their pleasure

They start prattling to munch your mind

Mind them not and to them be blind

Life to you may seem so unfair

That's when you heed to their engaged gear

Better be strong your life to focus

And all their mess will come to pass

I believe that you are brave

More than hiding out in a cave

They'll not give you rest

As they'll attack at levels best

They are after your household name

Since you are playing a quality game

Don't you suffer trepidation

Stand out to scuffle the intimidation

No place you'll ever ride smooth

So tear toughs with canine tooth

And like an eagle soar great heights

Beaming with triumphant lights..

..let go and stand out..

Change not to suit them

but

Let them change

by

What you disgorge.

The Clishmaclaver..

Even before the cock crows

You are up as if set for an expedition

Only to find out that

You rose to watch

You rose to listen

You rose to team up

And seal with tittle-tattle

With your idle troupe!

What do walls of the estate say?

Chapels, mosques, offices and markets?

They are familiar to your voice!

Your scent

Every dog can easily smell

Your footprints

Even the disabled can follow

Your laughter

Defines the anecdote you're sinking in

Your eyes

Betraying your loyalty

Your mind

Deep in an unscrupulous state.

Do you know what you are doing?

Shattering the best of the community!

Go build, not to destroy

Go advice, not to mislead

Go help, never to injure

Spew words with vigor

Your world to revolutionize

"where you are

please don't be

a

Clishmaclaver"

The Bus..

It is always on time

Stage to stage for its  passengers

The conductor knows them all

The driver knows their destinations

Everyone therein sits with great comfort

Positioned to their respective seats

In low tones you'll hear people talk

As the bus grips the road smoothly

Another morning comes

And at my departure stage I stand

A little while here it comes,the bus

My nerves sure to arrive safe

From passengers we no longer were

But brothers and sisters we became

The bus ferried and knew its own

Passengers being adopted and adapted

Am waiting for the bus

Am sure its on my way

It knows my destination

And am certain to be there on time

..the bus..

Presenteeism..

For real, hard work pays

But is your work only for a day?

See, they set working hours

24 hour jobs running in shifts

That together the best to achieve

Surprisingly, others work lengthy

Extending working hours with poor output

Oh my, a break is good

To work don't be glued

Its best when done in time

And when all can sing the rhyme

Don't try be good for nothing

When duty lays for something

Work on and in time

Not working till over time

Abrade not your tissues for another day

Or sick in a sanatorium you shall lay

Work when you are fresh and sober

And with might you'll perform

Remember, I said not, don't work

But, silver and gold no matter how deep

They will be mined..

All the best in your exertions..
