Cyprian Ogeto Poems

Troops were ready, they took their kitbags,
Led by the regal soldier for the patrol,
The barrel-chested and buoffant man,
Whom had earlier been recruited.
...

In the gloaming glowing embrace I stand,
Awash in the cosmic wonders of this land,
For tonight marks my last on this paradisaic stage,
A bittersweet farewell, a melancholic reframe.
...

In the hushed slumber of September's night,
A dream unfolded, woven in golden light,
Where gentle zephyrs danced, whispering soft,
A tale of promise, hope, and dreams aloft.
...

To you dear Dad
A guiding ray I see
To navigate both day and night
To belight the blacken path
...

To me dear mother,
You are my Shero

Good mothers to find is a gem
...

We thank Thee for the newborn day
We thank Thee for the sunshine
We thank Thee for the clouds that azure the sky
And the cooling breeze within.
...

It's already after time mid June,
The sixth month of the equinoctial,
The solar year halfway,
This glad June day grants me hope.
