Letter To a Girl Child

Everything seems impossible when it’s not done
Though when dark times hit, people tend to give up and run
But to where, it’s still under the same sun
This is one of the truth ignored by man.

Yes! Fate is fate, but giving up is not an option_ Cause adaption in any situation is a key component that leads to evolution as the earth under goes its revolution.

This word is for you girl child, a flamboyant feminine soul
Beautiful, smart and intelligent, keeping the fire burning like coal
With a different perspective of life as a goal
And inspiring to the female folk, a role you ought to keep in control.

Despite how at times you may doubt yourself, just remember, the power lies within you_ the power to bring every Jericho down and to move every mountain

Girl! Indeed everything seems impossible when it’s not done.
But take every chance and opportunity to give out your ability or capability_ keeping in mind to secure your integrity.

Desmond Tutu said, “Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world at par.
You ought to do the same, success is your portion just follow the rules of the game.

Go along with your vision_ let your brains spill with abundant_ knowledge to foster development to the nation.
An achievement man will have had been remembered for till the Day of Judgment with celebration.

I know this message may sound braggadocio_ but believe you me, you’ll always be unique and special.

Anyway, to every Girl Child_ go forth, be the light of the world and thunder!

The Mysterious Word

What is this word…?

The word like a hummer that breaks every yolk
The word like glue that seals blessings like a padlock
The word that created heavens and earth when He spoke
The word that conceals believers from their enemies like a cloak

The word like a double edged sword that pierces
Slaying darkness and its forces
The word that regulates behaviour and reinforces
Though some trust in chariots and some in horses
The word is the birth of all sources…of power

 It’s sweeter than honey
Nourishing souls like nutrients of a chutney
Giving hearts smiles like there is something funny
So important for life like a kidney

This word was there from the beginning
It was there with God shining
And this word is God himself brightening

Prayer

Son of David have mercy on my soul
I was blinded by the evil like the known ancient Saul
And now all my enemies want to see me fall
But with your love and mercies you make my ways beautiful

Jesus Christ! Set me free
I am just a branch and you're the tree
It's my humble request only to u I plea
So I give myself away for me to worship thee

Vanity

I’ve handled wealth I’ve handled money and all I got was vanity
All my precious time wasn’t used to build Christianity
Only based on fame taking my own popularity
Chasing around the wind just to get my prosperity

Now! Am ready to take the cross
Christ died for me and rose
He never sleeps, slumber or doze
Just for me not to lose my course

You shine your light upon my path 
To the wicked you take your wrath
You taught me all the Bible truth
With your word you filled up my mouth

Take me to another level, another level
Where hell will not prevail, not prevail
Chasing the demons away and the devil, and the devil
Giving all the lost and sick a revival, a revival

My creator my potter
Connect me to your one and only alter
Things to be better
Connect me to your heart and living water
Life to be sweeter
Connect me to my guide and only mentor
Whatever we face doesn’t matter... It’s you at the center.

Her Beauty Without Blemish

Beauty without blemish... This is a unusual behavioral response  to this beauty mishmash...

All along I've been in darkness...Not until her glowing splendor of beauty shone in my life with meekness...

I could do anything to impress her... I knew you're for me Vanessa..

Your lips speaks a flamboyant melody to my ear.. How I wish u were here...

Your smile so cute... It gives me goose bumps as I stare with my mouth mute...

Your hair is long, dark, exquisite & tempting to touch...although you said you don't like people touching it, I think of pulling it back your head & hope you don't scream ouch!

Cause I can't withstand seeing you in pain... I would rather suffer for your gain..

Vanessa! I love you, though I know this sounds insane... Can't help it but to wish I was dancing with you in the rain..

You're loving & cool...and I wish I was there with you...

I know you may think its all a chaff but it's true... Just as Roses are Red & Skies Blue...

Your image isn't fading from my eyes... Indeed in you that's where True beauty lies...

This is for you from deep down my heart... I hope and pray will never get apart..

Abash Poverty Abash

Abash poverty abash!

Your evil ways are so detestable to mankind
How could you grind great minds?
Persisting from generation to generation intertwined
Plotting destruction to the anticipated tremendous future aligned.
You’re merciless, how could you kill the old, children, the lame and blind?

Abash poverty abash!

Your evils can’t be out spoken, ranging from stress, mental disorders and suicides.
To mention but a few alongside crimes, indeed you must be rectified.
Worldwide compiled statistics of people defiled by you pop up and some wish they died.
How could u leave people naked, homeless and sick? Your ways can’t be justified.

Abash poverty abash!

Long gone are the days where we could fear you, now the world is a global village
The UN, GGAF and other stake holders are providing sufficient knowledge, to curb your existence
You Poverty! Your millage across the globe is drawn to zero with your image
No more crying and complaining, sustainable ways are being implemented.

Abash poverty abash!

I urge everyone to come on board and sensitize the best ways to ensure zero poverty.
We’re the light of the world and the future we want.
More especially the youths, walk the talk to an amazing society...

Testimony

I was sick to the point of death
I didn’t know it was turning around to a strong faith
All my friends departed
I didn’t realize that my life was regarded

By the God of all
Who is there for me and fought each and every war
Lombapano madalitso ni two-two 
Kung’ala muchila newo yayi ndine muntu
 
I lost everything like Job
My house my money including my job
But God never left me alone
From the beginning of time He made me His own

Born as an oracle
From down to top, what a miracle
I move in grace no obstacle
Though my life was a mess and so critical

When I was sick He gave me health
When I was poor He gave me wealth
Now my life is a testimony
The way that I’m living and tasting money

I’m defined by what God says
Sacrificial death that the son had to pay
On the Cross, made my worry on a pause
And now with Christ I’m a boss… Hear this…
