Everyday is Valentine

All through everyday,

You've won red,at heart.

You've maintained a bouquet of flowers,fresh.

You've been a gift,priceless.

Thinking Love,is thinking Wink,

Thinking  Wink,is thinking treasure,

Thinking treasure,is thinking life,

Thinking life,is thinking future,

Thinking future, is together with Mercy. 

In my lowest moment you've stood with me,

In my highest moments you've been proud of me.

In my outbursting moments,you've remained calm for me.

In my broke moments,you've taken water with me.

In my failing moments you've forgiven me 

Nothing can reciprocate your unconditional love for me,

Nothing can pay the sacrifices you've made for me,

Nothing can equate,the patience you've had for me,

Nothing can compare,the feel good you give me.

Nothing and noone can occupy,the special room you've in me.

Every day,

I will pray for you and us.

I will always understand you.

I will always be there for you.

I will give you my all that you may need.

I will seek the best for you and us.

I will always seek to make you happy. 

And today,tomorrow and forever,

I promise to love you unconditionally.

All In The Album

In their 20's,it was one of those classic couple,

Her hair curled like that of Irene Cara,

His stature must be the reason mantra;tall dark and handsome.

They were looking vibrant,

Full of vibration,

The vibe of their peers,they must have been.

They had nil children then,

Now they have three;29,25,21.

How they now look, all in the album.

The only single day he wore shoes at primary school was in class 3,receiving an award,

The only trace of his dad ever attending a church service was in 1999,receiving baptism.

How can he forget how his green,white and black uniform at secondary school,

And the serious look he wore when he turned 18.

He is now the 25 yr old kid,the age his dad was when he wore the mantra.

The boyhood,iall in the album. 

A handshake receiving another award,this time in form one.

Everything remains quiet till form four.

Memories were rekindled,

From surrendering at the principal's office.

Serving at the science laboratory.

Good friends made,it's all in the album. 

Unitàtè et Labore.

The labore was soccer and table tennis.

The labore was going for hikes from Ngong hills to Longonot.

The labore was capturing all the moments that were happening and posting them in social media,

The labore was being amongst people..

The 'labore' ,all in the album. 

It gives a piece of memory after memory.

It  reminds us were young and now old but His faithfulness abides in us.

It reminds us we will not be young forever.

Reminds us of the time we used with people who were just but wind in our lives.

It reminds us after all is said and done,only memories left.

It's all in the album. 

As you read this,

The the album is full.

Though more photos keep on coming,

Life is at a different lane,

Still finding a footing in it.

Some day generation will look back,feel and learn.

May they be proud of all that will be in the album.

All She Desires.

A pen and paper,she inked;

Don't coin happiness if you are hurting,

Don't take everything too serious,

Don't remember my past mistakes,

Don't forgive me if you don't mean it,

Don't stay for ages,MARRY me sooooon! 

A phone and finger,she texted;

Love God more than me,

Let me go home in time,I am still daddy's gal,

Take more risk for life is for risk takers,

Be better today than yesterday for us. 

A break and offline,she responded;

Instead of 'you could have' use 'how about',

Perfectionism is not of this world avoid,

Never judge me,it's just unfair,

Don't make me feel guilty,we all make mistakes.

A silence and no word,she felt;

How do I tell him how much I love him,

May he be patient with me,

to continue working on become better day by day.

Sorry for all the heartaches.

I never meant to hurt you.

A talk and presence,she said;

One thing;

Be strong for me.

Who Am I?

I am a child of God.

I am a new creature in Christ

I am a branch of the true vine.

I am a friend of Jesus.

I am a fellow heir with Christ.

I am no longer a slave to sin,my old self has been crucified.

I am joined with the Lord so one Spirit with Him.

I am no longer a slave, but a child and an

heir.

I am chosen, holy, and blameless before God

I have been justified and redeemed.

I have been set free from the law of sin and death.

I have been justified and redeemed.

I have been accepted by Christ.

I have been called to be a saint.

I have been set free in Christ.

I have been blessed with every spiritual

blessing in the heavenly places.

I have become the righteousness of God in

Christ.

My body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who dwells in me.

God leads me in the triumph and knowledge of Christ.

I am the head and not the tail; I am above only and not beneath.

I Can do all things through Christ Jesus

After All Is Said & Done.

In the morning,curtains were cut.

At 93 his life had come to an end.

In the evening,we laid him to rest.

A few, majorly family, turned up.

In the presence as well was the current CJ.

44yrs of legal profession and then CJ. 

No fancy grave.

Everything was simple.

Just like that?For a former CJ.

Yes,just like that.

How could it be?

Well,after all she is gone.

Veins of memories opened up.

The memories of many.

From Wangari Mathai to Mother Teresa.

From Jacob Juma to Mercy Keino.

From Demis Roussos to Mark Vivian Foe.

From Adolf Hitler and Musolini.

My heart sinks at a reality.

Reality of one day,you and I will be gone. 

One day we will be gone,

It will not be how and why we died.

It will be about what we left behind.

It will not be the possessions amassed.

It'll be about treasures,memories and impact.

Tables must turn,

Energy must be focussed on what matters.

We are passersby.

Endowed with much,we must explore.

Contrary,die and be forgotten.
