Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!

ANEW


I CAN FEEL THE SUN ON MY SKIN
ITS GENTLE CARESS FILLS ME WITH WARMTH
MY EYES WIDE AND RADIENT,
THEY WANT TO SEE MORE OF THE BEAUTY SARROUNDINGD ME


THE SMELL OF FRESH AIR FILLS MY LUNGS WITH HOPE
MY EARS ARE QUICK TO LISTERN TO THE BUZZ AROUND ME
BIRDS SINGING, CLEANSING SOUND OF WATER, MY HEART BEAT
THESE ARE THE SOUNDS OF LIFE


LIFE IS FILLING, SAD MOMENTS, HAPPY MOMENTS,
ANGER, LOVE, JOY, ARE SOME OF THE FEELINGS WE EXPERIENCE
THE ONE LEADS TO ANOTHER,
YOU WONT KNOW OF ONE IF YOU DIDN'T EXPERIENCE THE OTHER
THEY ARE INTERTWINED


THAT'S WHAT MAKES THIS LIFE WORTH LIVING
ISNT IT AMAIZING HOW ONE MOMENT YOU CAN BE FILLED WITH ANGER
AND THE NEXT SECOND WITH LOVE?
IT ONLY TAKES A SPLIT SECOND; DOESN'T THAT FEEL YOU WITH WONDER?


I FEEL RADIENT, MY SOUL FILLLED WITH MIXED EMOTIONS,
PEACE, JOY, CONTENTMENT, SERENITY, HAPPINESS, ZEST FOR LIFE,
IF I COULD PUT IT IN ONE SIMPLE WORD, I WOULD SAY "LOVE"
A LOVE FOR ONESELF


INSPITE OF ALL THE NEGATIVES IN THIS WORLD,
THERE IS MORE POSITIVENESS IN,
ITS NOT ALWAYS SEEN BUT ITS THERE
PAY ATTENTION!
