When all is said and done
And the day is as usual
But with great personalities, it gives you reason to be grateful
When life brings both the good and bad
With each come a lesson they help us to grow
And in our little corner we are bound to glow
For such gift, one should be grateful
When all help u to merry for a proportionate increase in life
But you use time to reflect for a considerate decrease in life
The decisions made both wrong and good
A cocktail of experience you are proud to have lived
For these little things we need to be grateful
When saying thank you is not enough
When showing gratitude cannot equate to sacrifices done for you
When time spent for you cannot repay in money spent for people
But to do the needful is to say thank you to all
So I am grateful 🙏🏾❤️

The sun was high and his rage was fire
A husband of steel with an uncompromising will
His words were rough
And so were his emotions very tough
To show care meant he was weak
Dressed in his pride
He makes his wife a common bride
It’s hard to see what cannot be felt
Regardless the gifts of sight
Freeborn in the efforts of Adam
It’s evident some lanes are claimed by those who are less prevalent
A sheep in wolf skin he was
Wearing the garment of a patient man
But whenever the night drew near
His personality switches to ‘Del Diablo’
A victim of love she was
Emotion distorted womanistic intuition
Vows never to make her wow
But relish any chance to make her aww
Love led the way
Right into the open arms of her tormentor
What happened to the warm moistness of a kiss and love promised
Indeed depression has done it’s duty
Covered in denial he refuse her home
He made idols the immaterial
Victimized
Not knowing what had befallen his wife in that material
A crime to hug her in the day
To make her smile was never his way
Excuses and qualms was all he could say
But when the night came
The lion in him became a kitty seeking to be pitied
Shift in this consciousness
Birthed his zeal to ignore the pathway to God
Casting her in the illusion of true love
A disservice to the very existence of his soul
He looks at her face, blind to all that he is shown
The idea of running the show, is always a problem to begin with
He stood tall by his hills in the day
But goes begging by the knees at night
For what he may have at ease
His stubbornness made him a fool at nine

Out of sweat and pain
Screams begot dreams
Out of tears and the waiting years
A child is born as a sign of hope
Out of the blue when all has no hue
Grace as child came to color a family that was gray
Out of toil and when life seems to coil
Love and care breaks all that there is to fear
A mother’s love knows no equal
A child’s innocence knows no stain
Their lovely beautiful union
Only the heavens can tell
#MothersGrace! ❤️
