Even Fools Have Their Day?

The world is so kind,That even fools have their day,No, I’m fooling you,It’s not fools’ day,As if there was something praiseworthy about foolishness,Instead,We are allowed to fool you,And you in return fool me,And we fool each other,Then we end up being a heap of fools,Or how do you call a person who fools others even […]

Time Well Spent

It is time well Spent,That time spent in correcting the errors of the past and unlearning those vices which are almost becoming one’sl second nature. It is time well Spent,That time Spent in poking holes in self and doing a thorough soul search to clean any cobweb that is hiding in the recess of one’s […]

I Tried Another Way

I tried another way,Other than ‘Trust and Obey’Recklessly refusing to heed the voice of love,Sweetly reminding me that there is no other way to be happy in Jesus,Outside the path marked ‘Trust bad Obey’So I took the Nearest diversion to the left and increased my pace,Seeking to take gigantic gulps of whatever there was on […]

A Woman Called Somebody

Her life had taken a downward pedestal,It seems like she was losing her hold on life,If her life depended on apothecary she had exhausted them,For some reason, her condition outmanoeuvred even the balsam,Even if she heard that there was some physician Somewhere,She couldn’t afford it,Her issue had milked her dry of her substance,She was sickly […]

If I Had a Chance to Preach in a Funeral

If I had a chance to preach in a funeral,I would ignore the dead,Not because of disrespect,But because my most tantalising articulations are too late for them,If they were my friends,I would tell everyone who care to listen,The precious memories we shared with them,I would speak as much as I can remember of their goodness,Any […]

Your Best is Good Enough

There is always room for improvement,As we see in the appraisal letters,As well you can be promised better,If you put more effort next time,And it seems it is almost taking another shape,Being a vicious circle of an upward look,With a margin of improvement yet again,Being dangled unto us soliciting our reach,And to many we are […]

You Better Get You Ready!

You have made it through the steep slope, And on the top, you are gloriously standing, Basking on the warmth of the glorious summit, Congratulations, Only remember one thing, After the peak comes another depression, A threatening precipice or a gorge it may be, So, while you are celebrating your accomplishment, Remember to have your […]

“Please Mind the old man!”

I saw him trudging slowly, Burdened with weights, Suffering from obvious fatigues of a long journey, Her daughter also lifted whatever the luggage remained, Innocent and simple, I concluded that it was her first time in Nairobi. But she was safe, a caring father endured all odds greatest of which is age, To see her […]

SUMMERTIME IS COMING

We have had to endure cold,And wander in privation untold,We have hard to settle for spaces flint,With comfort but a pint,We have had to maintain our fidelity,When the chords around sing infidelity,What about hostility to piety?In all the feasts of gaiety?So we must crack our heads all the time,Finding an excuse to let go of […]
