Two Poems from our Inspirational Poems, Motivational Poetry Collection

 
 
Africa
   
Author: Gregory Golden
   
Poem:
Africa
   
  Somewhere over the rainbow, a great civilization flourished, and we discovered a wonderful kaleidoscope of exuberant and vibrant humanity. Enchanted tones tell a story about a People of Color, adorned in shades of generosity. They blend into caravans of strong and beautiful faces. The royal kingdom with majesty, sits on the throne, and the mighty lion with pride, rules its dominion. Rights, rituals and passages speak of our greatness. Traditions taken from the Ancients are the seeds planted. As we enter the sacred place, paradise is never forsaken. Behold, the true Garden of Eden, as we drink sweet water from the Nile River. Timbuktu astronomers study the heavens. Mandingo and Zulu Warriors display a menagerie of war painted colors. They stand gripping tall sharp spears and poisoned arrow tips to launch, thus ready for battle. Juju medicine man mix repeated chants, as he drifted into a spiritual dance. At daybreak, we go down to the river flow, and shadows rise like the moon. Hearts beat in rhythms like fine tuned African drums, and the rainy season stay bound to Mother Earth. At the edge of a crackling fire, the enchanted medicine man delivers magic words and potions. Great powerful heavens lift every voice up and sing, To the sweet harmony of Africa

LOVE & HATE
   
Author: Cecelia Morse
   
Poem: LOVE & HATE
   

Hate is what we all fear
Everyone says it
They sound like it’s true
It’s not meant by many
But for some it is
It takes great power
To be able to hate
It’s not a word to throw around

Love isn’t all it’s cracked up to be
They say that they love you
But they don’t mean a word
They say that they’ll always be there
But that is soon to change
As soon as they’ve got
What they’ve come to get
You’ll never see or hear from them again

If neither are true
But both are said
Why is there so much confusion?
They say it but don’t mean it
They know it’ll hurt when they face the truth
But still they make the words
Sound so serious
People need to understand
That love and hate go hand in hand
