The Poetic Word

Life beyond these walls

BY GLORIA O’KOYE

May each day blow kisses of joy and every night presents you gifts of peace.

I haven’t written letters for a long time

So, I hope my poem will be okay.

Just want to let you know,

You are loved and cherished by communities

Love that speaks tongues across nations

at your doorsteps,

Blossom to a field

Of unimaginable beauty

We love you!

Our love is

Resilient,

Unconditional,

Sweet like nectar

We miss you!

Every being that enters this world

Carries an abundance of gifts.

Those that are in full bloom,

And plenty in waiting

Waiting to unleash their glory

When given a chance

You are like the candle,

A glow that continues to shine

Everlasting

Obstacles can never stop your growth

Remember,

That you will always be special

You are worth fighting for

You deserve the best of the best

Served on a platter made of life and rejoice

Each step

Big or small

Will take you in a journey

A story

That you can take full ownership of
