Sound Of Poetry Poem by Sentamu Aziz

Day in day out
A lot keeps knocking
Luck and Blessings
Short cuts and long term
Good, Evil and confusing
Be keen on what you choose

Sunrise brings smiles
Challenges and frowns
A lot of hope in the day
For the binoculars we hold
Is none but faith
That drives our courage
Till a sunset of smiles

Deep thoughts of wealth
Steered with no effort
Will keep you in bed
Dreaming of no foundation
But castles in the Sky

God gives plenty of life
That death is never a worry
For a life planned so well
To the fullest you enjoy
The fruits of your struggle
As your tree remains firm
A shelter for your grannies

Prayers are said
All are answered
But some keep demanding
Without even thanks
Of what got so far

A day at a time
Brings smiles of conquest
A step at a time
Leaves journeys behind
How you move
Think plan and react
Holds your destination.

Strides of faith
Are bricks of hope
A prayer of thanks
Is a Breath of happiness
A plan of wisdom
Is a hanky for poverty
A step of effort
Is a seed of Victory
