You Inside of Me
I keep thinking
That some thing inside of me belong to you
And aye! You owe me some thing
I keep thinking
That all your voyages shall bring you in my waters
And my shore shall always arrest thy vessel
I keep thinking
That you are a chartered course
And your life shall shorten the dimension of your journey
To this thing inside of me
I keep thinking
This thing inside of me is the quencher of life’s thirst
And aye! You are in life’s dessert
I keep thinking
That thy ship shall find the oasis of our life’s ocean
I keep thinking!
Aye! You shall water thy vessel at the feet of my seas
And life voyage shall wash thee in the pier of my life
And this thing inside of me! Shall harbor you upon my shores

Dear readers I am indeed elated to mention that the poem: THESE ARE MY HEARTS was published in
the Jamaica Sunday Gleaner on 27th of November 2011. (The Gleaner company was established in
1834) I am most grateful for the inspiring comments; which you have taken your precious time to
mention: Certainly they represented the skeleton in which I was able to construct my faith and
confidence upon.. Call me Spolly.
