Simple Dirge

-
A dirge was sung,
For one of our sons,
Since his last smile.

He shined under this sun,
Casting shade of shadows
On many near afar.

He caused a stir on the scene,
Stunned the status quo ante,
Stretching the strands of stakes.

A simply complex character,
On the sentence of his stance,
He is a subject to be studied.

Superintending over some stunt,
Sucks his struts to the shore
And reset the stage for seekers.

As a soldier with sober grey,
He shared some salient space,
With a supplementary tenderness.

Several sons on this site,
Under this sincere sunset,
Shall sing silent solo dirges,
In salutation to our souls.

Fare thee well Senior Kwesi,
Stay on Jeremiah John
To the coast beyond,
Sail gently Papa J

Signed by 
Another Kwesi

Don't Rush

Don't rush the process, Because growth is gradual and incremental. Don't rush the procedure, Because there is a reason why the seasons are so. Don't rush the strategy, Because every circumstance is meant to prepare you. Don't rush the methods, Because you need to learn the nuances of life. Don't rush the cycle of this day, Without smiling or learning something new. Perhaps while going through the day, we ought to PAY ATTENTION.  Sending you my best wishes for the new week. Kindly Take care and be good. Greetings. ©KYB ✍🏿28/08/23

A Valuable Duty

-
Image
In our quest to satisfy our daily needs of what to eat and wear, we very often forget or give less attention to the very things that equally needs our care.  Sometimes our busy schedules in search of money or comfort are making us take little care of some pertinent things in our lives that we ought to care about.  Oftentimes, we also become too petty, bemoan and complain too much of our challenges of what's not done or what's still needed to do. Today, in seeking a balance, may we always value the little things like our faith, integrity, concern for the human family. May we ever desire to respect human dignity and be prepared to summon the energies we are blessed with, to make the positive impact we intend to make. May we always be mindful of our duty to CARE, everywhere we find ourselves today. It is an honour to reach you again, this hour. Do have a wonderful day.  Take Care. God bless you.✨ Greetings  ©KYB ✍🏿13/10/2020
