Daniel Ukwe Poems

In lands both near and far,
Where people struggle day by day,
There reigns a force so dark and mar,
A curse that will not go away.
...

Bitter one's leave, their journey done,
Their time with us, now forever gone.
Memories they've left, still linger on,
Of laughter and love, now replaced by a dawn.
...

Moses, wandering in the desert sand,
Encountered a sight that made him understand,
A bush that burned, yet was not consumed,
A miracle before him, it seemed to loom.
...

Born into bondage,
A slave boy's life begun
Chains and shackles,
His only companion
...

In the world of endless possibilities,
We choose the dreams we seek.
We pluck them from the field of imagination,
And let our hopes take a peak.
...

Where I belong, oh where could that be?
Is it in the mountains or by the sea?
Maybe in a bustling city street,
Or in a quiet town with fields of wheat?
...

So take my eyes, and see for me
All the beauty that surrounds
The colors of the sunset's hue
The stars that fill the night with sounds
...

Her Scent

Her scent, a fragrant breeze,
That swirls around my being,
...

In the shadows of the night, where the moonbeams shine,
And the winds howl with a chilling spine,
There's a world beyond our own, where the witches dwell,
A world of magic and mystery, where spells are cast and tales do tell.
...

Old school love,
the kind that lasts,
where hearts are joined
and time moves fast.
...
