Where are the Jingle Bells


Where are the jingle Bells

We are already in the month October

The second month on the months of ‘Bers’

The beginning of the holidays

When the families gather rejoicing for spent days

 

Growing up if we can all remember

Jingle bells start ringing from October

Now we are in September

Celebration mood looks far not closer

 

Where are the jingle bells?

What has the country done to the bells?

Has the country situation mute the bell?

Or the millennium age overtook the bell

 

It used to be so sweet

The joy then was so real

The whole family countenance glowed

When the Christmas melody flowed

 

Where are the jingle bells?

Where are the Christmas Carols?

Where are the silent nights?

Bring back the days of early jingle bells

I am BacK


I am back

Poetry was the way I live

Never thought days would come

When situation help put a pause

To what to me was second nature

The inspiration never stop coming

But this was a period of academic writing

I always knew a part of me I was missing

Poetry’s passion never stopped flowing

Several water have flowed things are changing

Kere O! The gong is ringing

Heralding the return of poetry voice

Let the bush rabbit listen

Go and tell the house rabbit to hasten

Am back! Mode O! Na dawo!
