REMINISCE

#Poetry When I reminisce my childhood, Now I'm grown up How naive I was in my neighborhood With friends which I grew up With no resemblance of parenthood But whenever I look up He tells me my future is so good Encourages me to cheer up When I recall my childhood Now I'm fully grown up How I kicked round game in my neighborhood With buddies which I grew up All my pals were very good I was cheered and lifted up I walked home a champion and felt good A winner still even now that I'm grown up ...

We made it at last!
Sokomba Esther A

We made it at last!

Every other day I quiver in fear My mind begins to comprehend it all Then I wonder if I do really hear For all that matters to me is the fall The fall of a nation that is all done Trying to pick the bits and pieces again Not a single soul can do this alone Every inch of the burden on the rain Then the cloud of all our burdens displayed Every step of the journey is spooky with pain Not minding the threats marched on and prayed Then combed the forest for the only key Alas! Alas! The journey was w...

Women's Day
Lambe-Rohi Bethel-Gold

Women's Day

This one was for Women's Day To the women who rise before the sun, And shine even when the day’s undone. With strength so deep, with hearts so pure, Your love, your power, will always endure. In the quiet moments, in the loudest roar, You carry worlds, yet ask for no more. Through every storm, you stand so tall, Reminding us that we can rise after every fall. From mothers who nurture, to daughters who dream, You are the fabric of every team. A sister, a friend, a warrior at ...

SO THIS IS LIFE?

So this is life? A life that our mothers went through pain to bear. Nine months, not nine days nor nine hours of heavy load, To bring thee into this world, with all its pains and woes. The struggles, the strife, the endless toil, The moments of doubt, the tears, that boils Of sorrow, anguish, and hurt. The weight of responsibility, the stress, the fray, Is this really all there is to life's grand play? I think of all the dreams, the hopes, the fears, The sleepless nights, the endless tears, ...

AMBULANCE
Oluwagbenga Abiola

AMBULANCE

"Ambulance" With sirens keening, lights aflame, A lifeline hurtles, swift and unashamed, The ambulance thunders, a guardian true, To rescue the fragile thread of life anew. Like messengers of mercy, the paramedics descend, With skilled hands and compassionate hearts that mend, They coax the flickering sparks of life to glow, And guide the wounded soul back to the world below. But sometimes, despite the frantic pace, The ambulance arrives too late, a heartbreaking space, Where death has alread...

#poetry Sensual music serenade my muse Volume right, the melody in my heart I make love with her on paper , my idea of intimacy They say poetry is prayer so I clutch the pen like it's rosary As I rewrite the gospel ,hymns of praise and adoration forth A fanciful experience of love that haunts, torments yet a tragic one that fulfills and liberates ; To marry her is to starve me the active craving of eternity ,the very thing that keeps me alive!

BE THE CHANGE YOU SEEK

We are the very change we seek in the world. Within, Without. If all that is within us is light, But if there be no manifestation without; Then, total eclipse. And darkness covers the earth. And the world, in darkness. And gross darkness the people. Transform yourself and you see the light. The light is trapped within without. And all will be lit... When we are the glow. For creation is travailing until now, Waiting for yo...

What I should have posted on International Women's day, well, every woman deserves to be celebrated on a daily.

How Gracious She is A woman is a lot of things. She is first of all a girl, a daughter and a sister. In most families around the world, she is to be the chef, an expert cleaner and the second mother to her younger siblings. A woman is a problem solver, a hardworker, and in so many cases, a multi- tasker. A woman is a nurturer, a life-giver, a comforter, a peace maker and a peace giver. She is courageous, audacious, luminous. She is a teacher, an influencer, a pacesetter. She is God's perfe...

We feel Like You Do

And we're also nursing. While we were worrying. And also believing. #poetry#Nircle, #missTobore#Nirclestories #Nigeria

The Game of Youthfulness

A balmy day it was when Deceit hid the coats No one saw, no one heard The screams, trimming through the trees Lured by allure while aroma beckons They went, sneering at the insight of the wise She was camouflage in innocence Masking the scent of her truth It came as no surprise When the silence paid obeisance to the air Scant seconds after they left the path. @sailaabby718822 Photocredit: StockCake #Poetry #Storyteller #NircleFamily #Nircle #Creative #NircleStories #MyNircleFeeds #Poet #Ni...

NOT THE THIEF IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
Ako Philemon

NOT THE THIEF IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD

Not the neighbourhood thief, Neither the village dog known for the evil. The blaring of trumpets, The beeping of the alarm... The very speech [gossips, rumours]; assasinating his character. That very name he incurs upon himself, Casts an aura around him; a countenance upon him. And soon enough, his name spreads wide and far. Not always of his acts of duplicity, Not through his grave deeds. But through news that washes snow white. And picks its victim clean; every man of his manner of ...

IDLE MOMENTS ARE CREATIVE MOMENTS

Idle moments are creative moments. There comes a time in everyone's Life That loneliness hits hard. When idleness stares in the face. The peaks and troughs of every man's Life. When creativity is at its zenith. Thoughts to flee, get rid of it pursues. In the plight to wade it off. We seek company Of friends, relatives.... And companies come with their woes... Then, the regrets of lending out an invitation... Better we had stayed lonely. That still small voice that muses... That creative ge...

Set yourself free

You are a book with unwritten pages, A story waiting to be told. Don't let the ink of others define you, Write your own story, bold. Break free from the chains that bind, Shake off the weight of what's left behind. You are a bird with wings untamed, Fly high, and never be ashamed. Your voice is a melody, unique and true, Don't let the echoes of others drown you. Sing your own song, loud and clear, And let the world hear your voice, dear. You are a flame that flickers bright, Don't let the w...

Just Smile, Life Won't Wait For You to Stop Being Weak.

Life's a train that's always moving fast, It won't wait for you to get your footing back at last. It's a river that's constantly flowing free, And it won't pause for you to catch your breath, you'll see. Just smile, life's not going to wait for you, To stop being weak, to stop feeling blue. It's a journey that's full of twists and turns, And it won't slow down for your doubts and concerns. So take a step, and then take another too, And keep on moving forward, that's what you do.

When Doubt Knocks, Open The Window of Faith

When doubt knocks on your door, with whispers cold, And fear creeps in, Don't let it in, don't give it space, Instead, open wide the window of faith. Let trust and hope, like sunshine bright, Pour in and fill, the dark of night, Let the warmth of conviction, like a flame, Burn away the doubts, and ease the pain. For faith is the key, that unlocks the door, To a world of possibilities, and so much more, It's the anchor that holds, in the stormy sea, And the compass that guides, to destiny. ...

It's a good day, today, The sun is shining, in a bright new way. The world is waking, with possibilities wide, A fresh beginning, where love will reside. It's a good day, today, To leave the past behind, and start anew on the way. To chase our dreams, and make them real, To spread love and kindness, and let our hearts feel. It's a good day, today, To take a deep breath, and let our spirits sway. To let go of worries, and trust in what's to come, To know that every moment, is a gift to some. ...

Man, House

A house, Man. A house is built by man. Man is made by God. A house becomes old because of lack of maintenance. Man becomes old because of the stresses of life and sicknesses. A house is broken down. Man breaks down in distress. A house is to be redesigned. Man is to be rejuvenated. A house is to be rebuilt. Man is to be restored. #poetry#Nircle #Nirclestories #missTobore #Africanchallenges #Nigeria ©2024
