A POEM FOR MAMA



Oh mama, what will I do without you?
How far would I have gone, if not for you?
You taught me how to walk and crawl
You taught me to stand up tall when I fall

You taught me there is no shame in failure
Every man need have something to fight for
You are the brightest of all the stars
You groomed me into a man under your wings

Fortunes and luxuries can’t match the sacrifices
The love, affection, care, support and tears
Through difficult times, you bleed for me
Thousands of miles, your words abide still with me

You taught me I could change the world
You believed in me, despite i was just a little boy 
I would never lose a smile, if the world falls

You are made in heaven, the day the sun calls

CONVICTION



Do you need a reason to smile?
Do you need a reason to be happy?
Do you need a reason to be sad?
Do you need a reason to be angry?
Feelings only makes us human
Emotion sometimes get the best out of man
Why wait for a reason to express the mind
Feelings expressed sincerely are unharmed

QUARTER PASS THE MOON







Its quarter past the moon
The night silent for a moment
Dreams are crawling, hopes perishing
The wind's calming the night
But shadows of men are out of sight
Life seem cursed, hope the world survive
For life is weighing on a thin line
The moon profusely praying for man
