Don’t Judge! Think Twice ~By Annette

Most of us are in cocoons that only we as individuals are aware of. Pits that we fear the worst and would rather bury it in our hearts than speak it out. In our minds, we fear what people will perceive of us. Sometimes, we feel alone and have…

CONDEMNATION

“Words unsaid, scenes unfold, secrets untold, in his eyes we behold”.

Partner in crime, you made me.
What a beautiful way to frame it.
With me on the cover page,
In a newspaper? In this time and age?

What use is information written on paper?
Till you went on and made it public!

Now the streets…

A Lady’s Dreary Dream

A Lady’s Dreary Dream
And there she was,
remorseful holding in what she couldn’t reveal.
She sat on a curb in a field of daffodils,
reminiscing his louche creepy charm.

The old man sat playing his golden saxophone mellifluous by the rill.
Her lotus dress reminded her of the nights they’d dance
And chance under the…

A Motswana Child With Dreams

I am a Motswana,
A young girl striving for success.
Trusting the gifts that we have been granted
By our ancestors and God.
Believing in the power of my voice and the beauty of my skin.

Embracing the uniqueness of my hair, which is as black as mud.
The way I walk reflects the flow…

I am a Poet By Sengri

If you could see me now,
You would know that I’m itching to write again.
I’m dying to let it flow through my fingers onto this paper.
If you could see me now,
You would know that I can’t bear it anymore,
Rather I say the passion is ripping me apart.

I’m waiting for you…

Society My Home By Catherine Banda

Society, my home,
Society, my refuge,
From time unknown,
You have been my haven.

I cry, I weep,
When all I see is that you are now
A technologically torn area.
What was our unity force
When I wandered into the depth and breadth of your beauty
Has become our contender.

We have become adversaries
And strangers in one abode.
