Sunday-Morning: African Traditional Religion poems

Nature Picture Library Man praying under East African yellowwood  (Afrocarpus gracilior) tree in church forest. Church forests remain largely  intact within a degraded landscape as they are considered sacred. Near  Zege, Ethiopia.

Go thou and look for the House of Prayer! 

To the mighty place, and there 

In stunning nature see the GOD OF LOVE. 

The growing organ's ring 

Wakes not my spirit to enthusiasm, 

Like the wild music of the breeze cleared forest. 

The lovely special stepped area and the spiritualist vest 

Energize not such zest in my bosom, 

As where the early afternoon tide pillar

Flash'd from the wrecked stream,


Fast vibrates on the stunned sight; 

Or then again where the cloud-suspended downpous

Compasses in shadows over the plain; 

Or then again when leaning back on the clift's immense tallness 

I mark the surges burst in silver light. 


Go thou and look for the House of Prayer! 

I to the Woodlands will fix, 

Feed with all Natures charms my eyes, 

What's more, hear all Natures tunes. 


The primrose bank will there administer 

Faint aroma to the awaken'd sense, 

The morning radiates that life and euphoria confer 

Shall, with their impact make me feel great inside. 

Furthermore, the full tear that down my cheek shall take, 

Shall talk the prayer of praise I feel! 


Go thou and look for the House of Prayer! 

I to the forests change my direction 

What's more, meet RELIGION there. 

Needs not frequent the high-architecture dome to pray,

Where fitted windows dim the dicey day: 

With LIBERTY, loves to meander. 

Wide over the heathy slope or cowslip valley; 


Or then again look for the haven of the surrounding forest, 

Sweet are these scenes, and when the evening 

Pours in the north silver floods of light,

We charm the Reflexion in the quiet misery, 

Furthermore, considers on the world to come.

STILL THE ONE

My first promise was  i'll never be your EX. Second was to never,ever let you go. That is i'll fight for you no matter what! And i was ready for what will come next. I had no thoughts of loving any more. You had wholly engulfed my heart. Good thing i still love you the same.. I couldn't love you more i was at the climax. You also made your promises Im greatful you kept them. We still progressing.. despite the ups and down. Cause i know i  for a record you've never let me down. You always pick me, and dust me up.. Its now our Seventh anniversary. You've told me many of the  best things i yearned to hear. To an extend i just remember a summary You always tell me i have no idea of how much you love me.. You always say you love my deep voice. Its the music that everyday you want to hear And I'm always your best choice. I know they will be more,same time next year. We've the best moments that i just want to live in. Like the day i took ...

Bad Day

Cause I slept drunk yesterday, I wake up with a spinning head I can't tell left from right. I have to pull myself together and after a litre or two of chilled water with a squeeze of lemon I become steady,trying to wake my wife up since I can't do shit on my own, it's dark ;4 or 5 in the am-so I think, dogs are barking And a cock can be heard from a far,"why are you so stubborn!" slowly whispers ,my wife. Assuming that is rhetorical ,I let her be, I have to fasten my pace so I cannot be late for work. The weather is chill and mist has formed in most part of my neighbourhood, again I can't see shit and this time not because of the darkness but the mist. I have already left the house when I get a call from my boss "Hello, I thought we spoke yesterday and you promised to be here earlier than now!" "What!?,I mean sorry, I am on my way sir."I reply not knowing what we spoke about the previous day. My head is still floaty, memories about last nig...

Why did you laugh?

Why did you laugh? When you know your smile robs me of my senses, Takes my identity and also flashes my bright eyes, Unable to think about anything else but submit to you, Rob me of my masculinity and make me feel like a little boy. Passionately, intimately, you look me straight in the eyes, For your eyes are the windows to your heart, I can gaze straight through your beautiful soul, For I trust your eyes will never lie, no matter how hard you'd try. You should know, three things that makes my life complete  Are love, laughter, and you, my drug, my addiction, The laughter has lasted since the very first moment  Falling for you babynaa, has been so much fun. Regardless of whether it's giggles at the kitchen table  Or even full loud laughter any place we're capable  Every single smile, is an image of our affection  You're my dream come true, all I ever dreamt of. Our adoration, well that is somewhat more significant  Radiating through when our giggling is rid...
