What is life

 What is life
Or the meaning of it all!
I eat and I pray
Today I see the sky
And tomorrow I will see it again.
One of my friends rejoice
For tomorrow he marries
Whilst another 
Is in deep mourning. 
O Sun you burning flame of gas
Is Jupiter the works of your hand?
French fries are better with salt
Open to hear the song bird sing 
A dirge or a bliss but will I be in tune?
Love is kind, when it ends
Death kisses the hand of him 
Whom fate has destined to fall by the flame
Or natural, of which old age has claimed.
What is life and what are we living for?
Collectively it does not exist 
Because individually we must close our eyes.
Fools, there is a God whom we have all ignored
And smitten us with his gentle bow
For we fail to bow the knee.
I know if this is all I know,
Jesus is King and to this King I sow
All of my threads, weaved in sin I wish I did not know
But the drink takes me to places 
That makes me not sow.

I will Ascend

 Humility smiles as Diligence seeks
For the poor to please
Another soul to release
From burden that we must all bear
But not in equal weights!
Are God's blessings blind like Justice?
Why they and not me?
The world spins
But we are not the sun!
Blessed peace
I abandoned by my careless ways,
And I fail because I bow to sin's desires,
Even Rome, fell!
The devil fell,
Christ descended
But only He ascended
And mankind will once again ascend,
I rejoice to when 
Jacob's ladder I will Ascend.

Many begin to love God

 Many begin to love God
But fail to finish.
The lust of the world takes them
And like Demas, they are gone.
It begins slowly,
A little here and there.
Diligence slowly gives way,
Discipline to prayer goes away. 
Many begin to love God
But very few finish.
But those whom God has eternally Loved
Will never lose His Eternal Love.

Night of Sorrow

 Night of sorrow
Came on the wings of an Eagle's flight.
To the mountain of doom
We all marched to bow to death
But not to fear.

K.Oni

Trouble comes and trouble goes

Difficulties arise and pass away. Life has a beginning and an end. Who knows when? Some are deliberate  Some are sudden And some are slow. B...
