Awakening

Ugonna Wachuku    

 

Nothing else but you moves
my soul through life and
clouds of beauty and joy.

 

When the story of my life
is told, let your hand of
the spirit remember my
yearning soul.

 

Let your song of the spirit
build torches of hope and
kindness to light the path
which others like me will
follow.

 

Let your beauty and love
awaken hidden gifts and
treasures in my life.   

 

And when all the sheaves
are brought in, let humanity
know that the greatest gift
you gave me was, is and will
ever be the awakening of my
deepest soul for the march
through heaven's gate. All
the way to calvary, you
awakened eternity for my
soul!

This poem let me think of the time when I never thought that I can write poetry and short-stories. But I never gave up hope to find my own artistic voice and it is due to this kind of poetry that I thrife on. Poetry like this gave me the courage to stand up for myself and write more than I want to.
