Ronald Doku Poems

My life is a like a race
Through a maze
Where I keep the pace
To avoid being in haze
...

Twilight is here and the sun departs with calming beauty
Children bid it farewell with such joy and delight
That emit feelings of nostalgia from elderly onlookers
As their goodbye songs travel beyound the great lake
...

Hopes and dreams set ablaze
Feet treading down a path the mind fears
Thoughts cursed with images of the one the heart yearns
And memories that refuse to let bygones be bygones
...

Lines made immortal
Through the test of time
We only know how true
Untill trouble dines with us
...

'Kokrookoo' was the rude awakening at dawn
From a strange rooster I never heard before
'Tweet Tweet' the little birds from outside chirped in
'Ooooo' I sighed, not another boring work day
...

Touching a cheek so soft and tender
A feeling of boundless joy captures me
My little sister is staring at me
And my heart is filled with warmth
...

Rose petal Rose Petal
You bloom bloom in the summer
Pretty red, pretty white
No matter your color
...

So many words i wanna say
Yet only few find its way out
Oh God its hard. Funny huh?
No, don't stop, keep smiling
...

Making God's messengers appear ordinary
My beloved lady surpassed the beauty of angels
Like golden rays through snow-white clouds
Her beauty pierced through my heart
...

Sounds of the ocean sailing through the cold breeze
Peace in my soul as my eyes find coherence up in the sky
The grey smoke in the sky, now covers the great ancient fireball
With the sand as my bed, and palms as pillow
...
