    Song

    May 3, 2023 - By 

    Do you like any song?

    The sound that cracks the cords.

    Stretches the lungs wider.

     It brings a song.

    Everyone enjoys singing.

    The host of heaven sings every day.

    Harmonizing with musical instruments.

    Together they form a unique melody.

    Many people like to sing.

    Whether in the choir or alone. 

    It’s always a joyful time. 

    No one can resist the sound of a great beat.

    An unplanned smile always pops up when we sing.

    Even birds do it from the tree tops the whole day. 

    Some people can’t concentrate without listening to a song. 

    It’s a sleep therapy for a few tired people.

    Even drunk people sing after consuming alcohol. 

    Every church’s praise time does it before the sermon. 

    To many, it’s an imperative aspect of the wedding ceremony. 

    Plenty of people will sing when they receive good news. 

    When do you sing?

    God expects it from happy people.

    All grateful humans freely do it regularly.

    Are you the one who turns on the radio every morning to the music channel?

    Is it not possible to be a cheerful person who doesn’t sing?

    Sanguines will say it is their nature to do at any time. 

    Cholerics think they don’t have to do it.

    Phlegmatics will grin when they hear the mix and lyrics. 

    Melancholics will be shy to sing alone.

    What kind of songs do you sing?

    Bible verses of song

    James 5:13

    Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise.

    And magnify Him with thanksgiving.

    Therefore my heart exults,
    And with my song I shall thank Him.

    Psalm 95:2

    Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving,
    Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms.

    James 5:13

    Is anyone among you suffering? Then he must pray. Is anyone cheerful? He is to sing praises.

    Then Moses and the sons of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and said,
    “I will sing to the Lord, for He is highly exalted;
    The horse and its rider He has hurled into the sea.
    “The Lord is my strength and song,
    And He has become my salvation;
    This is my God, and I will praise Him;
    My father’s God, and I will extol Him.
    “The Lord is a warrior;
    The Lord is His name.

    Revelation 15:3

    And they *sang the song of Moses, the bond-servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying,
    “Great and marvelous are Your works,
    O Lord God, the Almighty;
    Righteous and true are Your ways,
    King of the nations!

    Football

    April 22, 2023 - By 

    Do you play football?

    In a big rectangle carpeted in green.

    They seemingly aimlessly run around.

    Chasing a tiny inanimate object.

    Bumping on each other to seize it.

    Getting injuries from elbow hits.

    Or foot and toe pain from hard smatches.

    Angry abusive slangs follow suit unexpected.

    Rarely dead from shock to tension.

    Errors typically bear the name of goals.

    The possession adds as one side keeps the object longer.

    The strict rules struggle to keep the order.

    Yellow and red cards never stopped mischief.

    Grabbing the chance in the mistake makes a celebrity.

    Full of endless accidental efforts nicknamed strikes.

    Anxiety in fans impacts adrenaline levels.

    Overwhelming joy and sadness at the bad or good end.

    All focus on the ball.

    Attention to the referee’s sounds.

    Adjustment in styles from the coach.

    Encouragement and union talk from the captain.

    The ball is our purpose in life.

    The sole direction we must head to at all times.

    Rejecting the challenges and pushes from the opponent.

    Seizing the opportunity to score in life after a fault.

    What does football say to you when you watch?

    Language Voice

    April 14, 2023 - By 

    Do you know you have a language voice?

    We deeply want the fluency.

    We strive for proficiency.

    Desperate to grow our correspondency.

    We long for consistency.

    Language is who we are.

    Aware that with practice we can get the pregnancy.

    We question values and relevancy.

    We work hard to improve illiteracy.

    Everyone’s  understanding  is the reason for our consistency.

    Language is who we are

    But does everyone get what we mean?

    Some people might get our plan.

    While managing it like the Faculty Dean.

    We have to learn to take the words as a loan.

    What is a language voice to you?

    Language is who we are

    Daily practice is all that makes a valedictorian. 

    Memorizing tenses and writing exercises like a documentarian.

    Being ready to switch words speedily like a linguistician.

    Accepting old reasons without delay like a historian.

    Language is who we are

    Decoding meaning and context is the focus.

    Agreeing to do the daily 25mins repetition a plus.

    Admitting its a process with nothing instantaneous.

    Gladly smile over mistakes with curves unpretentious.

    Bible verses about the language voice

    Genesis 11:7

    Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, so that they will not understand one another’s speech.”

    Genesis 11:1

    Now the whole earth used the same language and the same words.

    Genesis 11:6

    The Lord said, “Behold, they are one people, and they all have the same language. And this is what they began to do, and now nothing which they purpose to do will be impossible for them.

    1 Corinthians 13:1

    If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

    Colossians 3:8

    But now you also, put them all aside: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and abusive speech from your mouth.

    Workmanship

    March 30, 2023 - By 

    Are you God’s workmanship?

    I am a great work in progress.

    Workmanship without regress.

    My destination has an address.

    No one can end or aggress.

    Every day I take a step ahead.

    Refusing a move behind instead.

    Determined to expand my gifts I spread.

    Planning for my story to be read.

    A purposeful beautiful unique software.

    Mother Stay in Touch

    March 23, 2023 - By 

    I check every flash for you, mother.

    Stare at all lights.

    Hope it’s a ‘helo’.

    Imagine it was you.

    Why did you go?

    Stay in touch, mother.

    My phone notifies.

    My eyes blink open.

    Expecting you will say “Na”.

    How you called me softly.

    Mother, where are you?

    Stay in touch, mother.

    You said “school non-stop”.

    I took all the ‘firsts’.

    Wore the thick happy robes.

    Your hug was absent that day.

    You would’ve wanted to see, right?

    Stay in touch, mother.

    We made designed plans.

    You had to pick the dress.

    The four wheels were for you,

    It didn’t taste like yours.

    Why didn’t you tell me earlier?

    Stay in touch, Mum

    Sometimes I hear you loud.

    Unconscious but alive I feel you.

    That ‘proud of you” look is gold.

    It builds mountain-high courage.

    Who could deny your love?

    Stay in touch, mother.

    That tight hug still wraps me. 

    The healthy yumminess on my plate.

    Melodious daily psalms resound deep.

    Stitches on my torn jacket felt new.

    Devotion prayers, who will lead?

    Stay in touch, mother.

    Honesty was a door principle.

    Faithfulness meant a commitment to you.

    Integrity wasn’t just a trait.

    Selflessness is all I saw you do.

    Who will tame the wails of your living  DNA?

    Stay in touch, Mummy.

    Even as I hunger for your touch.

    I feel your breath in my dancing heart.

    Retrospections let me hear you again.

    Introspection makes me do it right.

    You cannot touch me I know.

    But I am staying in touch with you, Mom.

    This poem is a tribute to my beloved mother, Frida Imbole Maliva. I’m grateful for all you were in my life. Even after more than 25 years since you left this world, your memory remains vivid in my heart. I hold onto the love I have for you, Mom.

    Music

    March 3, 2023 - By 

    Do you listen to a specific kind of music?

    Passing on every street corner.

    Big woofer speakers boom loudly.

    Vibrating beats made by expert DJs.

    Attracting and calling everyone who passes.

    The sound is irresistible.

    But what are the lyrics?

    Songs of nowadays are thick with immorality.

    Neatly embroidered with misconceptions about sex.

    Entangled in relationship abuses.

    Soaked with political condemnation.

    With a scarcity of reforms proposed.

    Strangled with nudity and vulgarity.

    Enshrined in pressure carcoons titled as culture.

    Ok! Truly, what are your lyrics?

    Music is the soul’s food, one Grandpapa affirmed.

    But it can feed or kill the soul, I say.

    When clothed in positivity and hope.

    Or imprisoned in the Word of God.

    Its life and encouragement to humans are unmeasurable.

    But sincerely, what are your lyrics?

    As we listen, we become.

    We accept as we hear deeper daily.

    The opened ears roll down to an empty heart.

    Our thoughts only grow from our lyrics type.

    Our lives reflect the memorized and meditated words.

    But seriously, what are your lyrics?

    Bible Verse about music

    Ephesians 5: 19

    “Addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart.

    Psalm 98:4

    Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.

    1 Chronicles 16:9

    Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk ye of all his wondrous works.

    Colossians 3:16

    16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

    Nehemiah 12:27

    27 And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites in all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem to celebrate the dedication with gladness, with thanksgivings and with singing, with cymbals, harps, and lyres.

    Tired Fingers on the Keyboard

    February 16, 2023 - By 

    Have your fingers been tired because of the keyboard?

    Sometimes the pains in life weigh on us so strong.

    The only feeling left is hardening.

    We become strong and thick because of accumulated hurt.

    The pain ends up looking like a stone.

    We think it’s impenetrable. But is that true?

    Absolutely it is true. 

    Pain breaks and can break.

    Can it really break?

    Yes, it can and it can be used to build again.

    Just as broken stones construct a firm building.

    Make a sustainable road. 

    Every pain which broke us can build us too.

    The tiny particles are still stones.

    Mixed in cement and sand plus water.

    The concrete is harder than wood.

    How are you using your pain?

    To rebuild or to remain depressed?

    Pain can be reused, use it.

    Everyone has had it many times like you.

    You are not the only one having pain.

    There’s eternal gain in your pain if you trust God. 

    If your fingers are tired on the keyboard, use the notepad.

    Bible verse about tiredness relating to keyword

    1 Corinthians 10:13

    No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

    Matthew 11:28

    “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.

    John 4:6

    and Jacob’s well was there. So Jesus, being wearied from His journey, was sitting thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

    Galatians 6:9

    Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.

    Airplane

    January 11, 2023 - By 

    Have you flown with an airplane before?

    How did we make an air conditioner to refresh us in the air?

    The tales of the giant bird’s belly are long to tell.

    It always feels like a moving freezer to me. What about you?

    How is our safety surrendered to a tiny belt-like strap?

    Our liberty to displace confined in an almost undanceable space.

    The freedom to stretch our necks constrained if a poor man..

    How did we know we could roll up and roll down wheels?

    Speeding so fast in minutes after strolling so slowly at the runway.

    It’s creepy to have legs that can hide.

    How could we think of making wings that don’t flap?

    Nor tails that don’t shake?

    A flying bird with a beak that doesn’t open.

    Whose idea was it to make windows that can’t be opened?

    Controlled by a host of buttons named pilot’s board.

    One of the times we can sleep, eat and only shake.

    Bible Verses relating to an airplane


    The airplane, a remarkable modern invention, is often credited to human brilliance, but its creation is ultimately attributed to God’s wisdom. The convenience and speed it offers in travel underline God’s intention for global connections and interactions among people.

    Proverbs 2:6

    For the Lord gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding.

    Psalm 51:6

    Behold, You desire truth in the innermost being, And in the hidden part You will make me know wisdom.

    Ephesians 1:17

    that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of Him.

    Ecclesiastes 2:26

    For to a person who is good in His sight He has given wisdom and knowledge and joy, while to the sinner He has given the task of gathering and collecting so that he may give to one who is good in God’s sight. This too is vanity and striving after wind.

    Proverbs 2:10

    For wisdom will enter your heart. And knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;
