The race is not for the swift, but those that endure to the end.


"Criticizing is easy, art is difficult."


"Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work". Thomas Edison

WAR
Until the philosophy which hold one race superior
And another
Inferior
Is finally
And permanently
Discredited
And abandoned -
Everywhere is war -
Me say war.

That until there no longer
First class and second class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a mans skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes -
Me say war.

That until the basic human rights
Are equally guaranteed to all,
Without regard to race -
Dis a war.

That until that day
The dream of lasting peace,
World citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion to be pursued,
But never attained -
Now everywhere is war - war.

And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes
That hold our brothers in angola,
In mozambique,
South africa
Sub-human bondage
Have been toppled,
Utterly destroyed -
Well, everywhere is war -
Me say war.

War in the east,
War in the west,
War up north,
War down south -
War - war -
Rumours of war.
And until that day,
The african continent
Will not know peace,
We africans will fight - we find it necessary -
And we know we shall win
As we are confident
In the victory
................Bob Marley



Woman
woman labours and her voice is muted
weak she is not a claim refuted
of strength and courage unspeakable
She is soft, appealing and most desireable
be not fooled by the veil of coyness
Within her lives Diana the huntress

Attached to her is her a primary duty
This creature of mystery, a being of beauty
As though a vision from above
She is Venus,Goddess of love

A mantle of labour she proudly bares
A woman achieves most all she dares
healing hands of which she is blessed
The imbalance she has been chosen to redress
Bowing not to humility
Now bares the name Bridget
goddess of fertility


A diplomat she was born to be
Standing firm,her motto,her creed
She keeps calm when there is strife
Seeking nothing but the truth
She is Hera, Goddess of youth


The odds may be against her sometimes
In her quest for fulfillment
her zest hardly declines
A tapestry of resourcefullness
Named woman, she is blessed

Forever Young
Once held I within my hand
The keys to all this promised land
I sequented life in the passing years
and put to rest unfounded fears

Somewhere in time and ages
left a mark upon these pages
The world I saw, yet unseen
As I feted with jocund company

Sweet clarity accompanied my youth
Never bending in search of truth
My feet ne'er faltered though I swayed
I kept to and walked the narrow way

Trapped within this net of gold
Life's essence now unfolds
Rest easy now my hope of gain
Youth may be gone,still young I remain

Winter's Tale
Branches, stripped bare of foliage
wind adds strength to the carnage
Icy fingers cling to naked twigs
with reflections mirrored in pools
silent, still and limpid
Winter wears her coat of shingled finery
A gray sky keeps the sun in captivity

The cold of night turns new pages
Howling winds over the horizon rages
decrescent moon in the heavens bright
keeping guard o'er a frosty night
Winter's bridal veil of white
stretches far into the night
claiming land and sea and skies
While daylight's fragile mantle gently lay
where light and shadow interplay

Keep CHRIST in CHRIST-mas

Presents wrapped and food aplenty
Christmas festivities can be rather lengthy
Cards exchanged and carolers singing
tired shoppers and tills aringing
Drinks flowing as though from a river
With lots of kisses for the present giver
Overeaten and filled to the brim
drunks wish you "Merry Xmas" with a grin
It is the season when all are supposed to be jolly
yet discord is sown amongst families and friends
The madness of the season seems never to end
Wishing "Glad Tidings" to each other
and a time to remember,brothers,sisters,fathers and mothers
Joy to the world we lustily sing
But; aren't we forgetting the most important thing?
What Christmas means and all it should bring
Peace, joy and happiness to all mankind

Our Saviour was born upon this day
Celebrate it,yes we must
Just remember to keep CHRIST in "CHRIST"-mas

PASSION FOUND

I waited in the moonlight for your gentle footfall
You approached from the shadows
Offering your hand, I placed mine in yours
We walked along the beach, the scent of the night's flowers
heightened our senses to loves long awaited call.

Lost in thought, we strolled at a gentle pace
You stopped and pulled me close
I felt your heart beat; and with my fingers
traced the sinews of your taut muscles
that rippled beneath the invading fabric
Of your white silk shirt

You held me closer, I did not resist
I lost myself in your passionate kiss
My ears quickened to your harp-like tones
My heart followed and leapt as I involuntarily
whispered your name

My head was spinning, body inflamed
You got on your knees and gently eased
me down beside you.
Arms entwined around each other
locked in a death defying embrace

Your hands began to explore
Slowly tracing the contours of my form
Setting a fire deep within my core
You gently eased my blouse from
around my shoulders
setting free what was hidden

Your lips bore down and took control
and as your hands found the mound of Venus
You locked your thighs around my waist
fingers searching, seeking, finding every fold

I felt the blood coursing through your veins
So intense was our embrace
You my lover, my knight, my Thane
had taken a girl and brought her to
womanhood and quickened the pace

We were one body united in the dance
of what came naturally
losing ourselves in each other, no holding
back, no barriers to cross, our union took
whatever we had as substance
We had reached that magnificent peak of no return
And chorused together as our pleasure sent
muffled cries into the still moonlit night
fulfilled, we laid in each other's arms
our energies spent.

Giving Love

Do you truly believe in love ?
the type that is freely given
It's the motivation and the reason for living,
Nourish love, give love, live love
true Love gives all, and nothing less.
Loving unconditionally, we are truly blessed
Nourish love, give love, live love

Love is a GIFT you give, and real Gifts
have no strings attached
Love energy between our souls flow easily
Nourish love, Give love, live love
Real love should never try to be matched


There is no need for trading or dealing
Love should be a natural feeling
Nourish love, give love, live love
Genuine love requires practice and intent
The energy of love should
fully permeate our daily experience
Nourish love, give love, live love

Only when you truly learn to love yourself
can you freely pass on this emotion
Nourish love, give love, live love
Goodwill, affirmation,kindness,devotion
Are the necessary tools for love’s true growth
Nourish love, give love, live love

Love is giving just for the sake of giving
Choosing to love one another, we enter
the realm of higher living
Nourish love, give love, live love
To us this energy was freely given
It is a natural expression that does
not expect an outcome
Nourish love, give love, live love

Some have used their love as tools of barter
And held back on giving love when their
Steps of progress have faltered
Nourish love, give love, live love
Let go of such a selfish deed
Learn to conquer insecurities
Nourish love, give love, live love


Remember to use the tools of forgiveness,
meditation, and visualization
They are there to assist us in overcoming
the negative experiences
we encounter each day.
Nourish love, give love, live love

Wanting

I lay awake for hours planning a lovers tryst
When I can hold you, love you; cover your face in kisses
Your heart I feel I know is a place of love
If our love ever blossomed for all to see
Would require intervention from above

I had randomly picked you out of a crowd
Our eyes met, senses engaged,
our souls bridged the chasm of uncertainty
In an instant I became one of the beguiled
Reason had imprisoned itself in a cage

You were mine, I had made a pledge
And pictured in my mind
thoughts of carnal knowledge
My loins were fully awakened by your aura
I had tasted the righteous drink of Soma
It’s intoxicating flavour made me forget the truth
My feelings were converted into a ferocious brute

My obsession occupied my every waking moment
No longer in need of sleep or food or nourishment
I feasted on the visions of the mating of us instead
Anxiously plotting ways to be together in your bed
There I would satisfy my hunger and my greed
My longing for you was urgent; and prayed
For the day I would succeed

Wanting to seduce you into submission
Feel the moisture between your thighs
For needing you my passion was not in regression
I imagined hungrily tasting your bitter sweet juices
Pressing my parted lips against yours,
setting tongues in battle
I would have allowed my wanton desires to lead
Where ‘er it chooses

Giving me to you would have been a pleasure
A mission that I would have treasured
I would have made you mine, vowed with my life
But sadly reality calls
………………………I’m someone else’s wife
