Favoured Soul

Born just like Leonardo da Vinci. His star is visible by shepherds on far and near fields. At his naming were wise men and women with gifts. Alas! Same is seen, being led to the gallows of destruction. Being marshalled by soldiers of his own ignorance. What deserved him this brutality? Unachieved dreams being his accusers claimed he committed crimes against his own destiny. His counsels made up of hope and prayer came in with several appeals but nothing positive came in. In his own voice he said, Am like a man whose torch is going out in the caves beneath the forest of Balor. A drowning man clutching onto a straw. A straw offered by a politician with no certainty of lasting. I also dreamed the dream of the greats. But the dream of inclusion has been lost by the reality of illusion. The lamb at Golgotha. He still counted on his lawyers till there came a light. A voice of favour lighted up his candle. Dancing with it he began, forgetting the pains of yesteryears. Then wisdom gave him a t...

Strong Soul

Am not sure when again to soar, but to soar again, definitely am sure. A wound to the chest but not enough to prevent my best.  The heart I still have, I shall again chest the open air and pull up my best cos my best yet is to step its foot on the last stair.  Though the wound is living behind a scar, the ground I won't stay because I am a star.  Deriving motivation from the vibration in and around, I'll have to put luggage of the past in the thrash very fast. Yes, It is impossible to wash away the leopards pores, yet it has nothing to do with its hunting course.  This is staying around for long  but am assuring the world am strong. Am still the eagle, refusing to be depressed and forever remain single. If a story is to be told of a broken person, it wont be of me, cos mine is going to be a courageous lesson. Wise Makafui Afun

Love On The Wait

Touch my heart Let me melt into your arms Am a singer bird waiting for someone to listen to my sweet melodies Chirp chirp chirp my lyrics go And sweet they sound in the ears of the one who loves me Soften your hands Then I can feel your touch better Allow me in Then enjoy my rhythm The sweetness which is reserved for you For you and you alone Wise Makafui Afun

Plagiarism Killing Creativity

Let not rage relieve peace off her duty That is the mood of a woman when another takes away her beauty For what is left a shine on the face of iron when it gets rusty So don't see someone's honouring event as your party Don't especially with impunity That's no pay for a person's ingenuity It's evil coveting someone else's ideas your property Plagiarism destroys creativity It is honour stripping activity Dip your mind into the well of creation and draw out the complexity Then understand how it is to create And appreciate how plagiarism makes creativity emaciate Like a mother hurts when her child is in pain A creator feels when his efforts are being rendered a vain Credit he who credit is due And earn honour for your own efforts too Wise Makafui Afun

Prayer of a Backslider

Let my hands still hold on You oh keeper of my soul. My dreams hang around You but my will seems sold. My heart is heavy for i'm reaping the setback I've sowed. Please invigorate my being once again to lift up my soul. For the battle is still and the reward is that crown of old. How then lose I a portion I have for long wanted to behold. Give me assistance anew oh loving Father. Be it me among your children once again when there's a gather. Oh mercy my Maker! Let my prayer prompt peace within me. For my heart war against my mind. And fleshly desires being the mastermind. If my crave for You can't win me your presence, Consider the blood because it cannot lose it's essence. For am he who was bought with the ever valuable blood. In it am forever clad. Wise Makafui Afun

Difficulties of Life.

It is the difficulties of life that make it worth living. Without them, there are neither winners nor losers, The first nor the last, The strong nor the weak, The fast nor the dull, The courageous nor the weakling, The rich nor the poor. The difficulties of life exposes the boasting coward. It tells how prepared one is in a chosen field of life; It defferenciates the experienced from the inexperienced, Professional from the novice and the best from the worst. The difficulties of life see only the enduring,patient and courageous sail through to success. Don't think there will come a day when all will ever be equal when the "defferenciator", which is the difficulties of life still exists. So you see the importance of the challenges of life. Therefore, if you want to sail the sea of life to success, Then u have to endure it,be patient and be courageous.  Written by; King Wise Makaphui Afun    

My Mother

I know a warrior, a woman. A man with a softer side but never allows to be pushed aside. She accepts no no until her children are satisfied. Always on her feet face to face with terror and defeat. Yet she dances strategically to the economical beat. Strong not just for herself but also for her children. Her plans for tomorrow is set even before he comes knocking.  And satisfaction of her family is her spoil of war.  Second in command but not to her family's demand. Can't compare her to any other Because, she is my mother. By ; Wise Makafui Afun
