Unite For
Better Tomorrow
Let us
unite to make this world a better place
Where
we can wake up every day
with a
smile that reaches our eyes
Where
we can sip our coffee joyfully
not
frowning, expecting a bad day
Where
we can go to work energized, feeling safer,
The
heart is overflowing with joy knowing
it’s
another brand-new day to show kindness,
where
we can invoke a universe of happy people
to be
a blessing
Then
this world will soon feel it
This
world will soon be filled with kindness
Then
life will be more bearable to live.
Am I Special?
I run,
scream, can’t stay still
Mood
swings rule my day
Explosive
nature is what I display
I’m
crazy my peers say.
You
call me Special.
Honestly,
I don’t know how you can.
Reluctantly,
I can see why.
Society
makes fun of me
And
I’m labelled Special
When
what everybody mean is -
I am
Special.
A
crazy kid whose emotion is unstable
Does
that make me Special?
That’s
what you whisper
And in
silence I suffer.
Is
there a life for someone like me?
With a
malady nobody understands.
As I
reach my academic ceiling point
I hear
I need professional care.
How
dare the Society implies
That I
can’t learn and behave in a normal way.
Yes, I
think I’m special, unique in many ways
But my
mom loves me just the same.
And,
did God in his wisdom make me Special?
One More With
Feelings
A love
that sparks through tiny lights
Illumine
our hearts and take us away
from
the darkest past.
Let
the stillness of silence
Bedazzled
by our love
Unmindful
of the sound of silence
Let
the deafening silence
Deafen
the world
with
the thunderous beating
of two
hearts IN LOVE.
Let
our hearts twinkle as one
Let me
be your melody!
Let me
be your thought!
And
let the beating of our hearts,
Makes
you hear me whisper
"I
am yours and You are mine!”
Love Me
Love
me like in a love song
Love
me like the yellow bells kiss the first droplets of snow
Oh,
love me like the nuzzling kittens purr in sweet throes
Love
me like there's no tomorrow.
Love
me till the sun sleeps
Love
me till we turn red with passionate kisses
Love
me till we gasp in the moonbeams
Yes,
Love me till the music rests.
Love
me beneath the silence of our heartbeats
Love
me underneath the countless sparkling night stars
And
love me even if we are miles apart
Yes,
Love will find its way to our hearts.
Only One Mother
Earth
We
only have but one life to live
On
this Eden, we called Mother Earth
The
God who created our heaven and earth
Designed
it so pristine from its birth.
The
man and woman
And
all the living things
Only a
living God could create from nothing.
Did
God create the bombers?
Or the
bombers create their gods?
Our
own adversary is no other than our brothers
Poisoned
their mind and became evildoers.
How
good to breathe and to be alive?
On
this precious, precious earth!
Which
envy, enmity, natural calamity
Subdue
its natural beauty.
We
cannot find peace even in the place of worship
Peace
became a piece of broken dreams and hopelessness
For
all the loved ones who lost their dearest!
We are
a human not heartless monster
We are
created in God's image and not of Lucifer
Goodness
and not evil are our first blanket cover
We may
never understand, but "it's now or never."
Your Eyes
My Feet
Your
eyes,
Will be
my eyes to see every sparkling beauty
My
feet,
Will
be your feet to walk you through uncertainty.
I will
run with your feet in sunshine and rain
Going
up on hills, valleys, dales, and mountains
And
when the “tides’ of life run against us”
In our
lifetime, my feet will chart our course.
You
will see with my eyes life’s splendour
Thank
God for His handiwork that we adore
Let’s
marvel at the lovely blossoms of every spring,
And
the blinding silvery shine every winter will bring.
I will
always be your eyes, my dearest,
And
you will forever be my feet.
And we
both witness with my eyes
Rapturous
joy in every present guest.
My
eyes will always “look for hundreds of reasons”
not to
give up on you,
And
your feet will always find a single reason
To
walk us by faith in any season.
