Tendekai Mugonda Poems

Priceless artifacts,
Are only,
Replaceable with another,
More worth artifact which,
...

In a life you opt to be a king yet enslaved by circumstances beyond
your control.
were you are forced to live in yesterday and forget tomorrow.
A strange place where happiness is not a resident but completely filled
with sorrow.
...

Fierce like a roar of a hungry lion and strong as hyena jaw.
Even maturity has given up in trying to make him grow.
His ways were pitch black as darkness of dawn.
The only son of his single mother yet he chose a different road.
...

As l gaze through the window I saw a poor boy
by the vegetable market with torn out trousers and broken rubber shoe
sole.
The whiteness of his skin has darkened to the blackness of coal.
An authoritative policemen with a whistle in his mouth and hands in the
air whilst vehicles come to a stop.
...

I have tried to be patient but iam sick and tied,
of the same drama.
Sometimes I feel like my life is lifeless like in comma.
I am filled with anger at the same predicaments.
...

I refuse to live a life which is not mine.
Maturity is getting me better with time like wine.
My life is able to direct some like a sign.
Yet i am willing to fly away but yet i still embrace the ground.
...

Dreams are meant to be dreamt by those favoured by,
opportunity.
Destiny and fate choose everyone but success shun,
some.
...

This anger of rejection is working in the mind,
more than the danger of a battle ground.
Life aims on the wrong target yet the goals,
are finished as the ammunition round.
...

It seems as a friend but yet it colours the face,
and decorates it with wrinkles.
It comes with age and maturity like pimples.
It's a companion which leads unto death.
...

10.

I could jump with joy because inside I feel warm.
I am overjoyed but hiding from my feelings to remain calm.
I cannot believe love can be this strange.
I could write all my emotions on this blank check.
...

Like a flower which needs a little ray of sunlight.
Is like the soul of a man which needs light.
Change has come and goes, but still we forget what is right.
Is what we agree upon that which is right or what is sacred
...

As life unfolds meticulously,
Novel aura of her,
Irresistible charm which,
Tremendously stole me,
...

Suddenly quick in the sense of man, Are the pple he count on to stretch to him a hand,
Dilemma as the only way out,
But choice itself filled with doubt,
Of the next step to be taken in this chain of motion,
...

Light flashing vertically from the sky.
A false act of motion lyk following everyone yet it does not pry.
Illuminated the whole bush with a rabbit like creature inside.
A creature envoloped with clouds inside.
...

Its like dying of a deadly plague sorrow have become a companion.
A kiss from a chameleon it wont touch your lips without fading your colours.
Time as a killer watching belief turning into myth.
It is like an old man white hair showing proof of wisdom yet still in the web of foolishness he speak.
...

In all my life i have never felt so weak.
Iam left tongue tied with no words to speak.
Some say it is love but to me it is beyond.
No gift can explain what iam feeling in my bone.
...

God's love is like a stream,
it softens the hardest rocks.
It gives life to different species of fish.
It gives frogs a new song to sing.
...

She is everything iam not.

She is a secret a fantasy, that lives in my heart.
...

Raised in a country like mine where to be revolutionary is the only fashion of the gods.
I was raised to be a prince among them walking alone towards spiritual roads.
Too much hatred in my mind yet singing the tune of love.
The world upside down only being fortunate to remain above.
...

Beautiful yet poisonous.
Wonderful yet dangerous.
Rare yet famous.
She is a beauty a goddess.
...
