Snapped by nene mawuhi

 Snapped 


I've been 

in the valley 


of death - 

many times

 

and each time I die

I snap back to life

to start it 


all over again and again 

my life's not been great


and I've not done

anything great


but I'm proud 

to be me

not the pride of achievement 


not pity pride

it's the pride of living 


and doing the little things 

that get some big things 


done!

  Strange!(?)   I see things when my eyes are closed   I hear voices when I'm not listening I say things when my lips are sealed   I go places when I'm sitting alone   I think of many things when I'm not thinking   I do things when I'm doing nothing                                                                  n.m.

A Prelude by nene mawuhi

-
  A  PRELUDE  In brewing with words begins this journey Of refining thoughts harvested from fields Of play and labor - from seasons of seasons - Our sweet company hold to bloom l ike  A living flower of rainy and harmattan days. See with my eyes, and listen, sense it all: My pieces in your pieces - all of me with all of you,  Taste the juice, smell the smoke and flavor - Sour or sweet brew's but the brewer's art. Curse not the course, bless not the bold But behold beyond and beyond behold the  Veiling, venting and vexing and vimming through this voyage!                                       n.m.
