WONDERS OF THE NIGHT
By Atusaye Kwamwambi
I wonder how you slept last night.
I wonder how your life was in the land of
dreamers.
I wonder if what you felt was real
I wonder who he was,
Walking by your side.
I saw him holding your hand,
Kissing your lips and I wondered how long he
was to hold you
I could tell he never wanted to let you go.
I could tell from his face how deep in love he
was,
He had his head up with a sparkling smile on
his face
I wonder if you saw all that when you looked at
him.
I wonder!
Tell me about it, where you met and how you
felt about him.
You might be the one for him,
The cornucopia of his life
The pinnacle of his heart
The epitome of his love mould
I wonder if you find that in him.
Tell me what you see, when you look in his
eyes.
Do you mirror in his eyes?
Do you whisper love-dovie nothings in his
ears?
I wonder if you are taking him out from the
dream land to the world of reality
I wonder for how long it will be.
As the sun reflects upon the time
Shining to the dark wonders of the night.
I wonder!
AJ all the way
By Ketrina Mokowa
In a world where distances strain
Stands a person whose name, a sweet refrain,
Means “thank you,” a constant grace,
A beacon of love in every place.
AJ, a name that echoes gratitude,
Though miles apart, his spirit imbued,
With warmth and kindness, ever true,
In absence felt, his love anew.
Through valleys deep and mountains high,
His absence noticed, a heavy sigh,
But in hearts, his presence beams,
Brighter than the sun’s gleaming streams.
For distance is but a fleeting test,
In the tapestry of love, he’s the crest,
AJ, the man we cherish dear,
In his absence, his love draws near.
So let us raise our voices high,
In thanks for AJ, our guiding light in the sky,
Though far away, his love we’ll cherish,
For he’s the one most loved and cherished.
Asante!
