Miss Universe



Smooth golden skin she brings
Beauty radiates from her but it starts from deep within
Floating on clouds she glides about 
There is no doubt in our minds that she knows her worth
Loud cheers shake the walls but she stands firm
"Good evening everyone" she begins to wow the crowd
Well mannered and such strong stature we get lost in her charisma 

Her body is designed with such precision 
Her hair lays low, to ensure that the crown fits just right 
The cheers fade away and the crowd is stunned 
Pardon me? Why is miss universe standing four stages down?
The black, green and gold flag still towers over the crowd
Why is it that miss universe isn't wearing her crown?

Didn't they see she stood out from the rest?
She flashes a beautiful smile to tell us she is still the best
She danced to the beat of the performers soothing music
Such a playful persona
She was truly like no other

The show came to an end
The winner stood tall and proud but four stages down 
Miss Jamaica is still deserving of a wonderful crown
One beauty captured the heart of the world
Four stages from the crown in the night but lastnight miss Jamaica still shone bright

Church ministry without God

Have you ever been to a church service and when the singers are singing you feel nothing? You can hear the words coming out of their mouths but they have no  conviction whatsoever? Music is one of the most important parts of church ministry and if God isn't in it, it shouldn't be called Gospel music to begin with. Some singers in church sing for self! They know they are blessed with beautiful voices so they use the church to showcase it but it isn't about ministry. It is simply to let people know what they have going on. They stand before you and they have blank expressions on their faces, while they sing such powerful lyrics. They aren't moved by it but they somehow expect that the congregation will be. The next issue is that of the modern day Gospel music. Call me old fashion but it isn't my flavour at all. Why should I have to be wondering whether I'm listening to Gospel or I'm at a dancehall event? Why does the church have to change itself to resemb...

Loving a black man that doesn't love me

Image source: Google Images His beautiful dark skin made rich from the earth, his physical strength supporting where I am physically weak, his beautiful smile and then the depth of his speech. In a world where the wrongs that he has done is spoken about more frequently than what is good about him. I see the beauty in black unions,I see the beauty in black souls connecting, I see beauty in being by his side. The issue is, he no longer sees beauty in me. We walk paths these days paved with the broken connections. Couples who once professed to be so deeply in love now pretend to not know each other. We walk paths  where you can pour the purest of love into the vessel of a man/woman and they remain empty. On one side, we have black men who believe that black women have lost their worth. They have lost the meaning of what it means to be a Queen. The black man believes that the black woman has wrapped herself in the labels that society has placed on her. The black woman is ofte...

The Jamaica of tomorrow

When shall the change come? Crime and violence ago continue and mash up Jamdung? Street lights come on at night and our window lids we shut tight tight No kids on the street, no time to meet and greet Why can't we no longer walk at nights? Why we don't have no peace? Police men guard the streets  Kids run quickly pass them not sure if they police or just undercover gunman and thief Thousands complete their university education but student loan awaits them in every gleaner publication Jamaica is such a beautiful nation, nice food and nuff happiness and sweet jubilation Wait a moment and turn the  TV off the international station Turn the dial to our local station No more happiness and sweet jubilation Blood flowing in the streets of poverty and ever increasing destruction You have the answers? Tell us how we need a change in politics Five years time and we still have the same corruption  You tell me to smile because better must come I ...
