Poetry on the canvas of love to live

1.Beauty of colour

On the Canvas of verve,
brushstrokes have done their mileage,
the hand waltzed its way through empty spaces,
sweeping through blank paces,
gunning its way despite mental blocks,
It kept on flirting, splashing ‘n’ spattering paint,
till life size metaphors linger like the warriors plumage,
Cupping our dazzled eyes,
We marvel at the beauty of ink,
painting the colours of love
‘n’hate
With meanings prominently awaiting elucidation.
Yes minds are stirred to reflect,
the gist behind colours,
When we refrigirate moments of joy ‘n’hapiness,
Through images that speak ‘n’ rhyme.
Yes we now know,
We now feel,
The power of paint
On the canvas of love,
Stretching variety beyond time ‘n’space.
2.Money changer

Salutation to the brave new world!!
of Conquerors of the alleys,
Your empire has grown its size,
woe to a stone cold sphere!!!
were bliss has turned its back,
on desert rock-hard jungles,

Poetry magic

Thse two poems are just a sample of the Collence.T.Chisita collection of poetry works

1..IN MOTION

Strange how days swell
Morphs our world,
Through age ‘n’ place,
Yesterday winter had us helplessly incarcerated,
In the deep freezer of tropical winter,
Till this blazing summer heat,
shook away the, wintry pressure,
Only to have us scorched,
In the radiating summer sun.
Yes we are, dwellers in transient seasons,
Where dark vapors gather,
thundering ‘n’ brooding with rumbling echoes,
punctuated by outbreaks of lightning ‘n’thunder
Intermittently shaking’n’slicing mother earth,
into little islands.
Earth waltzes ‘n’ squirmishes,
To the celestial beat of heaven,
Knitting’n’weaving our dreams to nature,
From hotland to everglade,
Raindrops trickle erasing foot-prints,
Till the soil douses heavily soggy,
Ready for the hoe to muddy its edges,
In a new planting season.
On the bedside of hope,
hack it !muddle through!
