RenewalA Poem by Chebem Ike
I dust my self off this dusts
And bath in the pool of ever flowing goodness And free myself of the clinging mud of mediocrity I dry myself in the sun of ever radiant rays of hope I shed this old suffocating air of selfishness And breath this new refreshing air of selflessness I put on a cloth of power And walk on beautiful boulevards Bearer of brighter future, for one and for all I walk and touch blossoming flowers of sprouting hopes And plant trees of newness and plant seed of change My trees grow spreading their branches for all and sundry To comfort and to care My trees grow fruits I put them on several basket of friends Under the umbrella of peace and oness My soul glows from within From a fire kindled by love a fire that flows Like a river, violent and meek, purity and calm This fire burns the odds and shows the way of love And sweet melody exude from the flaming hearts around Obfusicating formal cries of woe within and without This melody is a song of the free We sing for we are free Free from self and enshrouded in communion A communion of the renewed © 2015 Chebem Ike |
