Ode in Awe...

We have come to praise God
But all I want to do is praise you

Your face is the joy of morning 
For I hope it brings forth Smiles
Smooth as a stream running
Or your hair on for miles

Your legs are like the road untraveled 
Bearing endless joys unravelled 
Such as your fingers
A long memory that lingers...

 Your eyes bear the glint of élan 
As the Opal waiting for dusk
A golden cob still in husk
A Princess awaiting a crown

We came to praise God
All I did was praise you...

Of Life and Determination...

Like ants we climb 
Up this hill of life 
Burdened by what we know not
Held aloft by twines of fate

Though our paths be washed away
On we trudge through the sludge
Though our belief may move and sway
In the end our success shall judge  

What shall we see at the top?
Is there a top?
Do the Gods sit there and look upon us?
And make jest of our Sisyphus curse?

We know we cannot say
But what we can say we know
Come rain or snow 
We shall find the bread for today

For we live for today!
