FRIENDS


Good Friends are hard to find, but when they come our way they give meaning and purpose to our life’s.
Life without a companion is said to be useless,but to get a good companion is a different opinion,
what we see now is serious betrayal.
People come and go in one’s life but memories still stays; “Good or Bad”

What matters most is what you are remembered for when you leave.
Friends in your life are like pillars on your porch; sometimes they hold you up,
sometimes they lean on you, sometimes its just enough to know they are standing by.                                                                                            
A Friend is always regarded with Love, Affection and Loyalty.
They look into your eyes and tell you your Rights and Wrongs without any casualty,
They are there to Lean on anytime,
They bring smiles back to your face every time,
They stand by you in wilderness and in stormy weather,
Hold your hands and make you share in their strength together.
Good friend always multiply your joy and divide your grief,
when you make a fool of yourself they let you forget it.
They are always there to bring out the best in you,
They never get in your way unless you are on your way down,
And they always walk in when others walk out.

A friend is someone who is there for you when they’d rather be somewhere else.                                    
A Friend is who walks into your life and makes positive impact
and when leaving leaves a good foot prints.
The right kind of Friends are those with whom you can dare to be yourself,
Someone you can dream aloud in front of without loosing yourself.

Treat your Friends as you do your best Pictures and Place them in their best light because of the future.
Who is your Friend…..?

THE KING

I heard the python danced
and the Scorpion king scuttled
The village square was agog
Cos' the python did rattled.

Who are we
A mortal man in this struggle
Our time is running out
But all we do is grumble.

I heard the python danced
And the hyenas got confused
The jackals also stumbled
Since the Lion King returned to jungle.

GRIEVE

My soul grieves with a sorrowful heart
Roaming aimlessly in this dark space called earth.
Twice have I brought to life
Yet, he didn't make me smile
Twice have I exercised his covenant
But it has come to naught.

Were the atheist right, believing not in divinity.?
They said there's no power in the Trinity.
Everything happens by chance
Prayers are only a waste of time
An exercise in futility
Showing religious stupidity.

Yes, we prayed and fasted
Unto him alone we sought for help
But help never came, seems he left us to fail.
He has afflicted us Twice with pain
I wonder what we stand to gain
Hearing of his mercies, yet he refused us same.

Why Lord, why have you afflicted us again
Why have you forsaken the works of your hand.?
Our expectations again has been cut short
Our joy was short-lived
Why did you raise our hopes
Why did you bless us just to stress us, or is this to test us?

In everything we are told to give thanks
I thank you for the life you gave and you left behind.
But I'm still confused deep in my mind.
Your faithfulness is ever sure
Fruitfulness is always assured
But the blood you gave her is caricature.

We will still serve only you though, because we have no other God.
Hoping someday you will give us double for these troubles and crown us divine success for testimonies.
