MISSING THE OBVIOUS.
Rejoice Bonjoru

MISSING THE OBVIOUS.

Puppies confined, because their mother lays weak, and their suckling unkind. Their cries, a heart-wrenching shriek; scratching, biting, desperate to be free. Their pleas broke my heart, and freedom's door was opened; could they see? We, too, are trapped, in struggles and fears, crying out for help, through all our tears. But God's answer may come in unexpected ways, and we, like puppies, may miss freedom's gaze. We strain and strive, but God's already provided a way out, a rescue, if we'd on...

THE HERO I KNOW

THE HERO I KNOW

Many times, We are told tales of superheroes, That wore capes, Had smoothed hairs, and big muscles. We are told of how they saved the world, Kept an orderly world, And beat the bad guys. How they tried to hide their identities, And lived normal lives. Perhaps this is true! I suspect someone! Someone who might be a superhero, pretending to be no hero. He wears simple clothing, And loves to sing off key, He does not have a lot of hair left to be smoothed either. This superhero hero does not ...

NOSTALGIA
Rejoice Bonjoru

NOSTALGIA

Take me back to laughter that never ended, To nights that shimmered with stars uncounted. When dawn broke slowly, and our sleep was sound, Untroubled by the worries that tomorrow would bring. Take me back to when love that was shared without condition was common, When people actually cared, and hearts were open. When mistakes were forgiven, and weren't judged, When the nights were beautiful And days, pleasant. Take me back to days without responsibility, When emotions flowed smoothly, like ...

YOU LEFT.

YOU LEFT.

I stared you in the eye, As your soul drifted from a stare you couldn't maintain, I asked you to stay, but my plea landed on a stone wall. You told me you'd never leave, You liar, hahaha ahhh! You held my hands, Taught me what it was I needed to survive, to fight like a warrior. But when it was your turn, You raised your hands up, You loser, hahaha ahh! Shameless, look who couldn't even stay around?! When death came over, You accepted him into your bosom And ran off with him, How could you?! H...

A DRESS APART

A DRESS APART

Three dresses sit in the closet, Sisters, all made for the purpose of wearing. Dress one gets picked today, Dress two, tomorrow. Dress three's turn, somehow impossible now, As Dress one gets picked again, Then Dress two again. So it went on, again and again, Day after day, month after month, Spring, summer, autumn, winter. Dress three's turn just never came. The two dresses begin to fade with their achievements. after all, What's the use of a dress if it's not worn? Worried, downcast, feeling us...

A photograph of beauty

There's no such beauty as watching two old school lovers play like kids. The delight it brings just by watching their demure display of respect, loyalty, and affection. Their tender approach to suggestions and the way they carry each other along, nothing beats their unity. The way they tease each other, gist and gossip partners for life, the way they smile broadly when together, and the way they communicate even when far, is always a thing to admire. They work together seamlessly, taking on ...

The Sweet Feeling of Christmas

The Sweet Feeling of Christmas

The air is crisp, the lights are bright and blinky. A magical time, a wondrous sight The sweet feeling of Christmas is here A season of joy, a time to hold dear. The scent of rice and fries fills the air As carolers sing with joy beyond compare And father Christmas shares laughter. The tree stands tall, its branches wide, illuminated by the blinking Christmas decorations lights And the sky colourful from the magical fireworks A symbol of hope, a Christmas pride The fireplace crackles, warm ...

Scream out!

Feeling anxious? Scream out! Feeling overwhelmed? Scream out! Feeling hurt? Scream out! Feeling silenced? Scream out! Feeling disrespected? Scream out! Having suicidal tendencies? Scream out! Feeling victimized? Scream out! Being bullied? Scream out! Feeling trapped? Scream out! Experiencing abuse? Scream out! Feeling lost? Scream out! Struggling with self-doubt? Scream out! Facing discrimination? Scream out! Feeling ashamed? Scream out! Hung on the past? Scream out! D...

WHO REMEMBERS?

WHO REMEMBERS?

Oh, sweet memories, A childhood filled with rollercoasters of emotions comes streaming down my consciousness. From cradle, you begin to experience the sweet and the pepper, Because a child is too young to experience the bitter. One time, I sat underneath the bosom of my mother's mother, Under the moonlight, listening to her tales of a king who married a widow's beautiful cow fat. Or how the greedy tortoise got his rough shell. One time, my mother eyed me through the corner of her eyes For wan...

BEYOND DISABILITY
Rejoice Bonjoru

BEYOND DISABILITY

In twilight's hush, he dawned with vibrant shades of darkness, Sometimes a sprinkle of white blurred splashes. Early loss of sight and ability to not witness the revolutionary ugliness of the earth, a transformative test, Grants him a story, yet to be told, and forever blessed. Physically confined, yet unbroken in spirit, He surpassed the able, his will unshaken, his heart unlit. Breaking barriers, he defied convention's bounds, A successful life, no liability found. His disability, a mere fo...

LOST IN SILENCE

LOST IN SILENCE

On a couch, she lies, lost and still, A phone in hand, a mind unfulfilled. An empty barrel, once wine did hold, Now echoes silence, hollow and cold. Idleness clashes with inner drive, "What to write?" echoes, a battle to thrive. A pen dropped, rolled away, lost to time, Infinity's vastness, her creative prime. Her brain, a balloon, bursting to express, Yet, words elude, like shadows in the mess. She searches deep, for inspiration's spark, But finds only darkness, a creative embark. Quiet, unmo...

The color Sorrow!

The color Sorrow!

The sky is blue, The heavy rain, seized. The mother lays blue, Turning in violent seethe. The baby, willing! The mother, whining! The midwives, trying! The father, hoping! "How long yet?" The mother asks, in violent despair, "How far yet?" The doctor asks in evident distraught. The sky is grey, The mother lays blue, The child lays blue, The father grieves. #poetry #Nircle #motherhood #childbirth #life&death #firstpost.
