Watch Me As I Walk

Watch me as I walk

My hips may shake a bit

These legs they still look strong

No heels on to give them a lift

My shoulders don't slouch

And my waist is a wee bit round

But I'm sure you will not notice

As I strut and sing my song.

I've got the silver streaks

My hair has lived through many trips

A real natural beauty

With some personality

From my lips.

Watch me as I walk,

Confident glow of womanhood at its peak

A lifetime journey ,and stories of which I speak

My aging has never been in vain

A point my look defines

I've got the music in my brain

Can dance, sing, and you will gaze

I can still hold my own on the town

Older and wiser,

Yes, I have been around!

Watch me as I walk

See the mystery

I’ve been living my life more than breathing

I know all the pebbles on the street.

You call me grandmother, wife, sister, daughter or friend

I’ve made my life,

A story I will defend

Just watch me as I walk

Strong woman,

God’s miracle worker

Life holder, heaven sent!

Let's Talk... A Love That Lasts

The courage to carry “To have a love that lasts forever, is to truly understand vows and commitment” (Eversley,2016) In all of my forty six years of life I have waited for the commitment of true love. To really believe that there are people in this world who can cherish and care for another romantically has become a faded dream. A dream which has been archived into the fantasy part of my mental library. The love stories of long marriages which are not abusive or filled with indiscretions seem ancient. The new lifestyle sets a pathway to divorces which have become their own academy awards on film. Acceptance of prenuptial agreements and exit clauses are now necessary when thinking of love – whether in a celebrity career or leading a nondescript livelihood. To this end I did weep when I read from a friend and learned of his devotion, marriage and love for his wife. Let’s be real, and understand this is a true ongoing story of endurance, commitment, passion fo...

A Canopy of Grace

Let your canopy be big enough, that everyone can fit, Lord please I beg you, allow everyone to see it. Drop your canopy on the ground O Lord, Because some people cannot look up high For these are the people who love you, and without it may surely die. Drop your canopy dear Lord, for the little children to see Especially, the ones who are impoverished and living in poverty Drop your biggest canopy dear God on the earth Let it be enough, like a berth awaiting vessels to sail A mooring prepared with glorious flair, just waiting For the people to get there. Drop it, just drop it on the earth Drop it because you care. Please let your canopy fall dear Lord, because not everyone can see Let the ones who need it most dear Lord, be covered by its safety. Drop your canopy my Lord and Savior, drop it on the...

Swirling Thoughts

Photo Credits: unsplash.com/Marek Okon You got me stumped, Now I must think. How can I even contemplate, the idea of swirling? Its either an ice-cream being swirled in a mix, Or maybe it’s some plasticine, Made from rows of colored sticks? I’m not sure if I got this one, And I’m not sure if I can see, If anything around can swirl into my brain, Just to make sense of this word ‘swirl’ for me. At first I thought maybe its dancing, With my skirt swirling around my knees, But suddenly realized I’d fall flat on my face If some swirling really took place! Considering next a few splashes of paint Thrown on a paper to create a design, Suddenly that swirl made a lot of sense Understanding right before my eyes. So okay Eugenia, think I’ve got a writing plan And a way to take swirl ‘mainstream’. Kindly make it a little easier, for me to think again Cause this one, is hodgepodge on my screen! 26/03/2021 Thank You for stopping ...
