CHOPPED WOOD

They chopped it down Then thought it was over The tree is gone No place to call a home Take the wood into the fire Let it burn to ashes We will never hear of it again In this I wept Who will save the soul The soul left to rot on the wood The chopped wood In a trance, Like a flash I saw the curtain tear in half A mighty wind was here But how will everything become one piece? Suddenly, From the ashes,  The roots stretched From the earth, it rose The great tree of steel never to die anymore 3 days was all it took They never expected this Once a rejected wood now the choicest furniture My Jesus hung on the tree Has risen to set me free Freeborn, new born.  So I celebrate this grace, hallelujah.

RUSTY CROSS

  Happy April and Happy Easter to the World. Although it's the 4th of April, but I couldn't say a happy new month without a little piece of poetry  for you to chew on.  Here it goes, Enjoy. I heard you talking about the rust Yes the rust on the cross Sounds cliché right? It’s been more than 2 centuries already Yet you still dwell on that clause? What a shame Or where is the gain? Yes I question you? It’s getting too old to be active Are you contemplating that? Hmmmm... Look at you Looking down on the sacrifice which made you whole The hurt that saved your soul? This power never lied It’s efficacy never died He was dead yet alive Now no longer to die For this our eternity is sure A love undiluted and pure For a man with no odds Took our odds and died for all This power never died He lives forever. Hallelujah. You can also read the first paragraph from bottom to top, same with the second paragraph. To get involved in conversations, join the Book Community . For more informa...

ITOHAN (CRY FOR MERCY) Final Episode

  ITOHAN (CRY FOR MERCY) FINAL EPISODE Nurse Osas with tears in her eyes and a smile decided to look at her killers before she dies. The blind fold was removed from her eyes and the first person she looked upon was masked rogue who was unmasked this time. She gasped. “Peter!” “Who is Peter?” Groundnut chewing fellow asked looking at his other colleague. “Maybe she’s just trying to buy more time by creating attention.” His colleague replied. There was a minute pause. “Do your job fool!” HE shouted from behind then everything sprung to action. They bound her waist down to the board, she looked around as she prayed, the HE was no other but doctor. “What?!” She thought bitterly. She tried not to believe Itohan's story but sadly it was true. Blood splashed as he slit her throat and separated Nurse Osas head from her body . Sirens, noise, men, guns showed up in a flash. They were rounded up by the police. Someone left his duty post to bring tools. In the conference hall, eager heart...

It’s been a week since she.. .” She paused in her thoughts... “ or could it be that?” “Dont say a word or I’ll kill you.”  Nurse Osas heard the voice behind her, she felt the cold metal on her neck. Her heart froze. She was engrossed in her search for Itohan that she forgot to keep the doors locked. “Lord save me.” She mumbled under her breath as she was shoved into the van. “if you want to stay alive, shut up!”  one of the men shouted. She prayed silently as tears dropped down from her eyes. ____________________________________________ Where is Itohan?” The rough looking masked man shouted again, pouring the 6th bucket of water on Nurse Osas.

  ITOHAN, Episode 4 Miss Osas had had a rough day, as a nurse, it was not uncommon to be plagued by migraine. While she massaged her fore head with words of prayer, she heard silent sobs. It should be silent but she heard she moved towards it’s sound and it led her to Itohan's ward. “Are you okay my child?” she asked. Itohan was amazed at such nice gesture from a stranger but she kept it locked up. She could be doctor’s spy. ‘Talk to me please, you look distressed.” Nurse Osas pleaded Something spoke to her inner consciousness, this could be a good friend , the voice said. Itohan just found out she was infected by the virus. It was from doctor who after realizing his sad status, kept Itohan prisoner to fulfill his beastly urges. “I know someone who loves you and can save you if only you yield to him.” Nurse Osas said Another ‘him’ again, Itohan thought, she had had enough of doctor already, no more men in her life. “I can’t go on like this ma. How many men do I have to yield to be...

She looked at the popular white faced bottle of concentrated potion. This may just elevate her pains. She had just taken a little drop when doctor came in and rushed her to the emergency ward. While she regained consciousness, he scolded her saying, “You are not yet due to die because I am not done with you yet.” She wept profusely, what could end this misery.
