Early morning, 3am

I am still awake

Feeling my heart ache

Struggling to collect

The past that was wrecked

Reminiscing, I swam

-

 

Exhausted, I’m

Knowing life is opaque

And how often people are fake

Innocent mind they infect

Purity, they foolishly reject

Not finding an answer; I climb

-

 

Staring at stars; love’ em

I see the floating clouds that make

Onlookers feel fully awake

Crisp, dark night fully reflect

Majesty of God in full effect

Magnificent nature; a true gem

-

 

Deeply satisfied, I’m

His presence melting my ache

His shelter, I must take

Slowly, I will learn to collect

Because moi, I truly respect

Losing my fear, I finally rest; 4 am

Little young Delilah

Lost in the woods

Where vultures preyed

On the innocent souls

-

Feeling alone, lost and scared

She fumbled humbly for food

A lunchbox dear Mom made

Some rice, veggies and fruit

-

How long will it last?

I will starve to death

And my body would rot

In this darkness to hell

-

Cruelly the cold came right into her

Blanching her sense of security

And hunger chewed with surety

Her tiny tummy without deter

-

Oh what shall I do, oh what I shall do?

She wondered with clear purity

Her dear heart lightened as the wind blew

Her mom’s whisper, “have faith when blue”

-

Contently she slept

Once again, peacefully

Wrapped with leaves

Under the snow-laden tree

-

So Delilah didn’t hear then

The pitter patter of tiny feet

As tiny creatures of the forest

Emerged miraculously

-

“Oye Hoi, Oye Hoi

What’s that my league!”

Inquired the brave Elf-Captain

“Sire, ‘tis just another human child”

-

“Her feet so cold, her lips so blue

Why wrap her quickly, be gentle, I say

Oyee! What’s that? An empty lunchbox?

Make sure to fill it up with food”

-

My dear! How she survived alone

Wonder what miracle she holds within?

Inquisively, he peeked at her soul

And encountered the Light of Faith

-

Amazed at the strength he felt within

He just had to borrow, just a bit

Trembling, he held this sparkling glow

As he transported the girl to her abode

-

“Oh, how in the world I got back here?

Was this a dream or simply a miracle?”

Glancing at the silky maroon kente

A surprised Delilah smiled knowingly

-

An excited Elf-Captain hurried to his villa

Where Cuvette de (1) Sila (2)was primly set

This magical bowl now fully unlit

Would change his famine-struck town when lit

-

So, beamingly he placed the light of faith

In the centre of Cuvette de Sila

And voila! The bowl glowed mightily

Oh dawg! what a mighty glow

-

Faith, that’s faith my dear you know

A beam of light in the darkness some sow

A strong potion, verily a mighty sword

Simple Sweet Understanding with a sturdy FLOW


1-Cuvette de is French for “Bowl of”

2-Translitteration of Russian word силы meaning “Power”
