rainbows in our sky
silence once golden
angelic voices trumpet

unity breeds strength
moonbeams in togetherness
sunlight for each one
living in the now
join the love revolution
smile on your brother
seeker of eden
no longer searching alone
bards in harmony

love,
Drawn to thy beauty, grace rains down;
I choose this drowning than a drought –
Where ten thousand are called mine own;
Yet, deny thee and live without.
Skilled not enough to understand;
Words unheard, find their voice through thee;
As I reach out then find thy hand;
I see light take darkness from me.
Chaos knits together unity:
Thoughts run free, once captive in chains;
Cleansed from fear in thy purity;
Would I leave, canceling such gains?

color, love, rainbow,
There is a rainbow in my world today,
With every word your write my way.
Colors of emotions flow in harmony,
as they spread across the sky in unity.
Wrap me in your red, orange and blue,
fill me with the violet passion of you.
You make the sky shine after that rain,
softly your soul pushes away the pain.
In every luxurious line that you say,
you are the rainbow in my world today.

I feel African in every vein
the arteries pulsate with love
this continent is so dear to me
I feel African in every breath
the challenges the world paints
I see not but beautiful Africa
All Africans here and far away
join me to hold Africa together
no piece should go to the winds
The unity of the land of Africa
the resources of the land of Africa
are gifts no humans brought here
Patriots of Africa come hold hands
this land you owe loving service
dust off yourselves to build Africa
Old Africa where is your wisdom?
come out of your boxes and unite
the world is vibrant, lets wake up
I feel African in every vein
Africa my sweet-heart duty calls

spiritual,
The soul vibrates like a musical note
plucked by the changing universe of life
and within this realm, our conscious will float
with love as our true sword, we'll battle strife
we are the love born connected to all
to fight the dark if we wish to be whole
the conquered darkness we allow to fall
then seek the divine, and placed on love's scroll
names which are written, threads which are woven
to be a universal sacred cloth
where all of the love is interwoven
to protect our souls against demon's wroth
like water, we flow without any form
our souls merge with love, to be a light warm

A silent forest no more..
Upon the deep blue velvet sky..
Songbirds sing in soprano..
Tis the sound of Mother Earth..
She..
Echoes a serenade..
A sprinkle of pure magic..
Silence breaks..
Day becomes night..
Stars twinkle above..
A luminous velvet sky..
Interludes of serenity..
Silence breaks..
The forest sleeps no more..
Awakened is the forest..
Breathing harmonious music..
Alive..
A graceful dance with nature..
As tranquility is all..
Embraced by magical symphonies..
There is unity..
There is love..

love, world,
Our ancestors shed their sweat
and blood fighting for liberty
So through the diversity of nations
We would not see destruction
nor weakness in our differences
But they fought,they gave their lives
so we could live to feel the calm beauty
the strength and harmony of freedom.
May we never lose that freedom
May we never trade it for Violence
Hate and Mediocrity.
Let not our anger,nor our voices
silence the unity of our homelands.
It is better to be us against the seven winds
than us against eachother
Because we are sons and daughters
of the same world.
We belong to the same mother.
We are sisters and brothers.

We thought we were strong
Something happened to change that.
We simply were wrong.
Angel with magical cat
Sent us unexpected love
We were truly glad of that
Sensing they came from above
The love they brought was honest and true,
Unconditional joy, practically unheard of.
They returned to heaven, when they were due.
Inspired unity first, brought us together as one.
They had converted us, stronger and true.
Thanks to a lot of teamwork and a bit of fun,
All of us together, much stronger as one.

One Year Later
There is a strength in compassion,
a courage in the compassionate,
not a faint desire to be of service
but a triggered response.
There is a power in sadness,
not in the tears or deflation
but in the determination to
persevere, to rise again.
There is a force in unity,
the inexplicable rumbling
of hearts, beating in response
to the hearts of others.
There is a passion in oneness,
in focus, in belief, determination,
a love shared, nurtured, shielded,
cherished, and necessary.

history, native american, moon,
Long ago on this land we were all one
There was unity between man, earth, moon and sun
Man hunted and fished with love for the land
He had respect for his kingdom and all at hand
The white man came in numbers strong
Destroying what had been there so long
Hunting man and animal with such brute force
Mercilessly, ruthlessly, with no remorse
In the name of progress many died
The wolf and the bear and the eagle cried
When the smoke had cleared and the battle done
The earth and man were no longer one
They tell us they take for human need
But the truth be told, 'twas for human greed
It will take centuries to undo what's done
To restore our unity with earth, moon and sun.

lovelove,
Faithfullness; what is that here?
Is it a happiness once a year
The answer to our fears
When we seek it is it hard to find
Is it a feeling or a state of mind
Is it being carefull or is it being kind
What is faithfullness, yours and mine
A reflection of unity a faith in one thing
The fullfilment of duties having done everything
Protecting what is ours this love we share
A collection of the hours we loveingly shared
A satisfaction that this world is not so bad
A chain reaction of favors not being spared
The gratification that we equally love each other
Faithfullness is the greatest thing ever discovered

allegory, america, bird, celebration, devotion, independence day, together,
May America gather and agree
To be love-full and malice-free.
To unite as one, live one decree
From sea to shining sea:
To let brotherhood and unity
Propel new opportunity.
Arise, in new community
And crush our land’s disunity.
America come, give thanks
For the soldiers on foot; in tanks
Whose loyalty never broke ranks
From interior to outer banks.
Come young and old, altogether!
We share many a bond and tether.
As one nation, we’re strongest together
We’re one plumage but many a feather.

Approaching life with love
Lived with an open heart,
Irrespective of others differences
Fundamentally shining light,
Everyone welcome to join me,
Oneness and unity on mass
Favouring love over hate,
Lighting a path and a way to
Omniscient love in this world,
Vehemently embracing unity
Everything equal as it ought to be,
Attaching ourselves more to peace,
Negating hate, war and jealousy
Dedicating our time to betterment,
Lifting up the whole of humanity
Irresistibly the light is drawing me
Great fully exposing the love in me
Highlighting just how life can be
Trusting in the love and the light.

Our sanctuary is our togetherness
Where tenderness thrives effortless
We’ve forged ahead never sitting on sidelines
Traveling roads of scattered joys and landmines
Depths of unity a pearl so rare to find
Time lasting beyond the confines of our mind
Fighting uphill battles, life’s rollercoaster ride
Reaching journey’s end with nowhere left to hide
Once the dragons have all been slain
There’s a haven where you will feel no pain
Comes the hour that can no longer be outrun
Fear not the sleep in arms of angels, my loved one

love, sunset,
In the heart of a moonlit smile,
as the sky is alight with fire,
I behold a woman of style,
in sunset she shines with desire.
a love-light glow upon her face,
her temple shining so divine,
I hold close, her Heavenly grace,
with angelic love, she does shine.
A man of great integrity
whose fondness for the twilight hour,
is shared with me in unity
in grandeur of nature's power.
The stars reflected in his eyes
enchants my soul upon this night,
we gaze in love, with moonlit skies
as crickets serenade 'til light.
As always, Connie, it is an honour to share words with you on the Soup. you always make our collaborations sing. Stay safe.

Talk to me
Set your thoughts free
Find in me your peace
Know I am discreet
Show me your beliefs
Stand on them indeed
Like holy book we read
Boaz your Ruth is unique
Piercing heart so deep
And all fears do cease
Creating a beautiful unity
Faithful and filled with glee
Planted like green seed
Romantic and beautiful sweet
Feelings that never leave
Healing so much indeed
Smiles that never leave
Wild like fuchsia fantasy
Following loves true lead
Making so happy

May, the Love of God
Come alive flowing
from soul to soul
surrounding one of
God's presence, in ones midst
Indwelling Spirit of God's temple
Not made with hands
But by throwing up hands
To surrender to God's guidance
That was sent through Christ
Drawing together the
Children of the Living God
One God, One Shepherd, One Flock,
in Unity that God
Sent His Son that we might
become created unto His likeness

Melodies from heaven take me away
Undue the wrath of hurricane heartbreak
Singing of joy in freeing green serenade
Into the voice of love the one who saves
Creating a rainbow and providing peace
Amber and gold love inside blessings
Letting us know soul holy body
Inside we glow spiritual unity
The angels do sing and ears delight
Your heart brings a note songs for Christ.

water of life statue
graces courtyard of cathedral
showing unconditional love
Jesus love
the she seems to grow out of the he
a circle of life
there is a feeling of unity and clarity
the artist knew what he was doing
people are eating
not paying attention
I wonder if they realize
what they are missing
a sense of security and peace comes over me
I stare at the statue
loving the loving feeling
she graces me with…..

africa, community, education, environment, violence,
History has formed us into one braid
to stay strong and never surrender to any blade
standing side by side to be each others shade.
Why then do we classify one another into grades?
So that some cut others off just b’cos they are made?
There’s still hope, this togetherness will not fade
whatever it is, we have collectively paid
let’s stop hate from this unprecedented raid
so that unity will eventually get love laid.
We are Africans! Enough has been said.

MY COUNTRY LAND
Oh my Cameroon,
From the colors of a desiring mind,
Hums from an ancestral hands,
The Switzerland of an African land,
It true nature, beauty of it kind,
Footage from it Holy mount,
Memorable of Her outstanding sounds,
Falling unto its Historical towns,
Oh thou flow at two fathoms,
Seized from her master tongue,
Sparkly remarkable it Unity star,
Drawn down peace, love and fatherland.
