Seth Yuhi Musinga Poems

Under the oak tree, next to the river,
With NONHLANHLA my sweet rose.
I look at her lips and the big blue eyes.
I take her hand gently and bring it close to my lips
...

the benevolent affection of God for His creatures,
the reverent affection due from creatures to God
sharing and caring for others
sharing laughter and tears
...

Mother as wise as Solomon,
beautiful as the purple flush of dawn,
eyes like eccentric moons that quiver in some stationary tarn,
her love dwells like moonlight in my face,
...

Dlungwana son of Ndaba!
the greatest warrior of all times
conceived out of wedlock by his mother Nandi and his father
voracious one of Senzangakhona
...

I thank you for waking me up today, another day of life.
I pray this morning that I will surrender my spirit completely to You.
I pray that you watch over me today at work and I pray that there are no accidents.
I pray that the God who gives hope will fill you with much joy and peace while you trust in him.
...

On my way to the Northern of Namibia,
between Kalkveld and Otjiwarongo,
I saw a woman next to the road,
a tall, battered figure, with blood-stained cloths,
...

Just because I'm silent,
doesn't mean I don't have a lot to say.
Just because I laugh a lot,
doesn't mean I don't take things earnestly.
...

As the sun rises in the morning
I am overwhelmed with a burning desire
My love for you is as cool as a cucumber
Your personality shines bright like a diamond
...

Hang on, the Lord will give you strength in any act of your pursuit
Keep trusting God, He will lead you in every step of the journey
Don’t live by other people’s time tables, live by Gods Time Table.
Don’t underestimate your ability to pick yourself up and keep going.
