THE JOURNEY




Life’s a journey
Trail the path;
Though you will walk through the bush that’s thorny,
Even sail through the sea that’s stormy

And in darkness; you will need that Light
It’s the Word that speaks right
So you don’t become overwhelmed by that plight

Just be led by that Captain,
Whose faith can help you move mountains
He will guard you
By Him, the Earth was laid as a mat
And the heavens; spread as Blanket

Get your mind ready
You will need to guide it steady
Seal it; from those who will fill it up with perfidy
Open it to Imports from the Word of Life; it will help you achieve your destiny

Today could bring you rain;
Enjoy quite well with discernment and Ears to the Spirit
Coz Tomorrow might yield drought, and your soul could grow weary
So be wise along with enough Simplicity.

And note this; mind thy companions, the company of wolves are multiplied
Search among the hills, down the greens; behold their; a company of sheep
They will lead you to the settled grounds, along the quiet streams
You will find there; the Good Shepherd, the One who lays down His Life for His sheep; submit to His Authority

Be Brave; because you might fail; but you will learn
With one click of Success; for more, you will yearn
Within the allotted time; spread a lot of joy
Be the Sunshine


This; I have observed underneath the Sun
In the course of my little while

OUR WORLD: FAR FROM MEEKNESS

Our sphere though laden with many souls, but not many 'souls' Many clans, many groups, many races, yet many hates  Discrimination, prejudices, stereotypes, greed and bigotry forms at least many hates  Our faces gloom, many faces dried, yet many hearts filled with hates Help is far, piety is missing, bliss is wanting, we've sent meekness packing  We are proving our worth by monuments of mammon and by violent contest, for we've sent meekness packing Enough has been transformed to scarcity, safety to war; for greed came knocking, so we sent meekness packing  We are considering our unique identity above our humanity, less or no empathy; for we've sent meekness packing Though we strive and fight, though we battle for supremacy  Alas! as it is written in the books of Yeshua, only a kind of humanity shall reign upon the earth The meek, yes the meek: they shall inherit the gains of this sphere Yes! they shall reign in the lands, hence, we could choose their path Bo...

Nay! Not an abode from they that slay

-As conquest grew and wars loomed  - A hand grew mightily up in the lands of sreal - A hand that slain, as of first practice, the flesh of bears and blood of beast flowed like streams. - He slain the 10,000 and the 100,000 - The flesh and foreskins of men wearied him  in the land of philistines for yea! They were many that lieth waste  - He grew mightily by the Hand of His Lord, His kingdoms stayed knitted together; indivisible - This man sought a house for His Lord of lords and His King of kings - Nay!! saith His Lord, thine hands are filled with violence and thine feet tread upon streams of blood, they flow before me as oceans - Hence, should I dwell in an abode coupled by these hands, nay!! - I have chosen thine offspring, he shall give me an abode I desire, from the hands of peace  - No one takes your place in my heart - But nay!! a house of blood!! I wouldest not take from thee  (Tales And Rhymes Of a Man GOD Loved So Much) By Bolaji Olaniba

PREPARE TO MEET YOUR GOD (ON WORLD TERRORISM AND HEARTLESSNESS)

POEMS THAT INVOKE THOUGHT PREPARE TO MEET YOUR GOD (ON WORLD TERRORISM AND HEARTLESSNESS) By Bolaji Olaniba There is one whose ambitions are greater than the sacred life of the people He tosses his glass of wine to the massacre of the common man The news of scattered human flesh pinches him not He is immovable, because of his never satisfied political want *Sigh* Hope in the existence of the SUPREME ONE; Common man. Though the ideology of our political dogs seems greater to them than the human Blood All around the world are leaders whose smiles are as Dane guns *Sighs* Hope in the existence of the ALMIGHTY ONE; common man. They stand upon watery ideologies Claiming they will see it out with all their ability, That they represent men called; ordinary But they end up with staunch grudges Maiming same beings by virtue of great greed. Religious they say, political they claim Being sponsored by those who put out teethes of deceit Me...
