THANK YOU

 

My day would be incomplete
If out of the joy, beauty and value you add to my life
I can't spare a minute each day to say thank you
And show appreciation for been there for me
Despite my imperfection and shortcoming
You found time to put a smile in my heart
And also made the flower in my heart blossom
With love from the depth of my heart
I want to say....
THANK YOU

BE GRATEFUL

Be grateful to the wind for the breath of life

Be grateful to the star for making the night smile

Be grateful to the sun for a brighter day

Be grateful to the cloud for sending down the rain

Be grateful to the moon for the beauty of the night

Be grateful to tomorrow for the blessings of a new day

Be grateful to the heart for the feeling of love

Be grateful to yesterday for the memories she brings

Be grateful to friends for the comfort they bring

And be grateful to God for the gift of life

ONCE UPON A TIME

On a cold evening in December when harmattan was at its peak

An angel was in labor, the world excited

And the evening was full of stars

It was barely few days to Christmas

The moon's brighter; she didn't want to miss a moment of joy

For there it was conceived, a bounty of joy

There was a thunderous whisper in the air

The trees dancing in their colorful leaves

Like the morning should never dawn

I think it was Sunday, for it was a perfect day to be happy

If not, how could one tell why the cloud's rejoicing?

Cheerfulness filling the sky

The drummer beats the drum as the people dance with joy

Pleasantry exchanged with claps and hugs as everyone started singing

Aloud you can hear a thunderous shout, daring the night not to slip by

As we celebrate a birth envied by the gods

Birth of a child destined and crowned for greatness
