Two days ago I posted     I need a title. Help please? Any one have suggestions?  What I did was take all the suggestions and added to the poem and titled the poem Written By Us Yesterday for Today.  Feel free to post on your blog as your own because it belongs to all of us. 

Written By Us Yesterday for Today

Sunshine kissed the morning,
with its early rising.
Above the cement horizon,
I woke with a feeling of peace.
Listening to the sparrows speak.
Hearing babies cry,
it must be the blue dye.
Further than my reach,
are the answers I seek.
This world full of sorrow.
 Always tomorrow,
The endless quest.
For the weary no rest.
A new day song,
 a dark night so long.
Tomorrow dreams,
Or
dreams for tomorrow.
Always tomorrow…

Poet At Play – Chaotic Anarchy

Chaotic Anarchy
 
Angry bolts rip
Through the skies
Majestic flashes
Of light
Streaks across
The darkness 
Searing, the deathly
Stillness of the night 
Shatters the thin
Crust of ozone
Heralding the deluge
As it weeps
In anguish
Over a wanton earth.
 
It is pouring rain,
A hailstorm of bullets
The storm
Rages on,
And Thor thunders
Roaring, wrathful
And vengeful, 
Is God angry?
Ever merciful
Ever loving,
 
The storm rages on,
Furious in its
Destructive mission,
Hurling, hurtling
Winds and waves
Katrina and Andrew
Pale in significance
Earth against
The vicissitudes,
 
Buffeting, pummeling, 
Man and edifice
Chaotic anarchy
Of the heavens
And earth
Is set ablaze
 
(C) Celestine Nudanu
