GOLD IN THE MIDST OF CHAOS!



Alas, we came back,
Through thick groves and swampy forests,
We made it through the dark nights,
And the street lights;
Only to step to the other side,
To find something more precious than the calamity that threatened the tide.
All wrapped up in a cozy film;
And to the delight of our souls; we would have given up the parade,
Unless we had stopped to consider the length of the charade!
But all through this, it was worth the ride,
Well prepared, was the feast on our side,
Into the mist which threatened to overwhelm our sight!
We tried, but it seemed we had failed;
Several times, over and over again; our hearts lurched in the adventures of time,
Only then to realise we were at the very brink of discovery-
At dusk, standing face to face with stark reality;
We had finally found precious gold right there in the midst of chaos!

PEOPLE AND PLACES

 People and places, Dresses and cases; Times and seasons, On the move, on the go! Running towards the finishing line, Drilling treasures from a gold mine. Whispering and gossips: Two faced liars and deceivers. Too many people caught up on trips; Just too late to return the hires. But let's all remember that there will be a time of reckoning: Judgements, rewards and beckoning, For those who made their stay worthwhile though sometimes painfully lingering; Yet there would be some who though hindering, Will have their words displayed on Eternal boards and on walls, Where there will be darkness, howling and growling!

BELOVED MY PATH

 Each moment I wake up,  Listening to the sounds of the waves washing through the shore,. Wondering in my mind the next step to take; If only I wasn't too anxious at this point in time on the horizon of wantoness; I'd see clearly the path which trails down the road of glory and yet tenacity; Which in my heart and deep down in my soul, I deem fit to castigate, And not profligate; But instantly, show someone who needs some love and attention; Advice and direction, Like never before, who lived among the thorns and thistles of merriment and bliss;  Which has now cut deep into the imprint of the soul,  I am glad to say, that I didn't take that plunge into that deep dark hole of despair,  Which comes from obscurity and even uncertainty; Well, I certainly took the right turn, upwards, And this, I must say, has been the best thing, I could ever have done in my entire life!

THE PRICE OF FAME!

 The price of fame;   What's in a name? Feverishly gearing up your act; Not knowing what rules to enact. You keep looking into the mirror; As you rehearse your lines with all vigour; Knowing that deep down in your soul, You have missed the mark with just a meal in a bowl. You know, you have sold your soul to deception; And there is just a thin line between reality and imagination! You let the very essence of who you ought to be, go; just for a moment of faded glory, and now you say no! Yet there is One Who still knows and grieves; For by His stripes we are healed! His Love and Scars are a reminder of His Sacrifice; So don't let it be in vain even in your lingering demise! Poem written by Ewoma.
