Jim Agunga Poems

..The beach, so peaceful and serene,

caressed by the soft moonlight
...

from where i stand,

i can easily conduct a band
...

One finger starts the typing,

One mind comes up with the words,
...

He gets into his normal coffee joint,

greets the waitresses who knows him,
...

Like a song with no singers,
I lay my heart to be read,
Like a movie with no characters,
I let me be watched,
Like a letter with no words,
I let you try figure me out,
...

Love! you dealt a bitter blow,
You led me across the mortal plains,
Bedewed, bedimmed amongst a show
Of tearful clouds; eternal rains,
long long drive,
to the land of milk and honey,
where she was waiting for me to arrive.
...

We all have to settle for the right one,
each of us will one day choose one,
and in the choices you make, go for one,
...

One piece,
That is all I have to give,
It might not be much,
But please accept this one piece.
...

You came into my life
when i thought i couldn't thrive
but i still hope to strife
and all i would talk of is to live.
...

i want i want..
i want to live happily in this fine Kenya of ours,
share my joy with the happy family i have,
share the smile with my deserving friends that smile with me
...
