Poem after (Hay Jude)


Poem   after  (Hay Jude)

Hay   Man!  When you sing  a song,
let it be so loud that  it is curious
mixture of  extreme  joy  to invite
all merry youngsters to join and revel;
let the song be also  tempered in mood
of justified  anger and frustration that angels
descend to appease you in  diction
of clairvoyance and protection.

This is  a colorful world replete
With resplendence and Nature’s
Beauty  and Bounty  in all its  forms;
Even the ocean gyrating in great
Colors including the surf and swathes ;
Why only black and white?

Oh! Man , think of your childhood days,
 With cola and kite ever playing on the streets,
Getting  a warm scolding from your mom,
For the sunburnt face and  home work not done.
Now  you are grown, wearing a sun glass,
 Venturing into many new feats and success.

Sing along ,sign aloud a  merry song,
Also a prayer to The Almighty,
Beseeching His Guidance and   Divine Succor.
