BLISS CURTAILED


Haps sung with strings and harps

Sometimes said with strings attached

Especially those of iconic mishaps

Wishes recited with rhymes detached

All in the name of what will people say

We woefully help make their day


Birthday rhythm of the morning

Sincere condolences for the night

As if to help in mourning

And to stick till you feel alright

Marital support with gifts on site

Naming ceremonies graced all in white

Forging unity with heart and might

But no one to say goodnight


Many troubles behind the sweet smiles

Some that go with us for many miles

Pains that can't be seen in eyes

Needs beyond individual ties

Sometimes it's lack of mere love

And the sense of humor we don't have


Our backs turned in pursuit of nothingness

Hoping to survive by curtailing kindness

A table is set with no dish

And meal served without fish

Then why proclaim the brotherhood fetish?


If only we would take a second look

Purport at will to read each other's look

Maybe we shall not just type the good wishes

Perhaps our words would warm hearts

Then the true intention of anniversary 

Would shift from budgets against salary.

December, we can't regret; a sanctuary. But first let's not forget.  The one whom it begot; January. From drought through frost to flood: Such a flying time we've had. Although it hasn't been a boilerplate, I have so much with you to contemplate, Since we all began the year at the same place. Was yesterday not January? That skin drying and lips bursting mammoth. The longest yard of a measured cloth, Hated by salary workers for a month? Then came one so feeble. Short, stout and stable. February came with calm, And soon, we all had bread in palm. He came waiting for Easter, His holy moly sister. The fasting months soon approached: Marching to April as it May. Remember our sacrificial lamb; Jesus, our non-sink sand, The solid ground on whom we stand. Here is the mouth-watering, The mixed-cropping, The earth-soaking. June's journey with Julie to July, On an August occasion we can't deny. That led us to the quadruplet "BER" factory, Where the bittersweet ch

RFFS PRAYER

Anytime I'm called for duty... Wherever deployment takes me, Pervert from my path, any mutiny... But give me the strength to be; The rescuer, the protector and the fire fighter. Whenever I'm gone for stand by... Lord, grant me a listening watch.  All incursions, hazards and risks, May I with my crew identify... Where unavoidable, enable us to mitigate.. Be it in the terminal, tarmac or boarding gate.. Should there ever be an emergency, Wherever fire may rage.. Should there be any shout, No matter the skin or age.. Help me put the fire out, And my neighbor, help me save. And if by your will... Any blood may spill... Leading to any fatality, Protect my wife and kids, And preserve the rest of my crew.

GOOD SLAVERY

So they forced us. No, they persuaded us. Or they educated us? They rather Christened us. Whatever they did to us, Has been as good as, The wisdom their book has. Are they truly the words of God? It mostly feels like yes, Other times a bit more less. Like prophecies in poetic verse, Alphabetically scripted in wisdom, Not known where they come from. I'll read it nevertheless, And you should not do otherwise. At least it will keep you from any mess, And the meditations shall make thee wise. If the revelations make you cheer less, Read the chapters that make you fearless. Just Read The BIBLE
