Alex Francis Komban Poems

The child looked intently into my eyes
And to my surprise started uttering words of despair
Words which sent a chill down my spine
Showed me memories containing my terrible wrongdoings
...

The beautiful game is liked by one and all
Such is the captivating nature of football
The game unites many, but can also push
Countries into war, hostility and agony
...

My lady luck strode towards me majestically yet gracefully
She was, to me, the very epitome of female beauty
Her white robes dangling from her bare slender shoulders, fluttering gleefully in the wind
Her black flowing hair dancing as if they were whispering playfully to the air surrounding her
...

From as far as the days that I can think back
I remember seeing my grandpa, my godfather
Watching me all the time, loving me the most,
Holding me lest I would fall down
...
