Morning Promises & My Evening Songs

Morning Promises & My Evening Songs

Gazing into the morning sunrise

Ne’er reveals how the day unfolds

A galactic wait for the sunset’s tolls

To hear an evening’s song surprise

All about a day’s majesty of:

The Morning

To Midday

Then Evening

Follow by Night

Repeating Virgin Light

To guard secrets of the day

As the evening commands us to obey

Each phase of the day rewards us with blessings. Some are easily seen while others are disguised beyond understanding and still they are blessings. This book illustrates the moods of life during the course of a day (or life’s moments in time) with the use of poetry and lyrics. The tune of each song is a personal experience of the person who’s in need of that song.  The book is divided into five sections:

Morning

Midday

Evening

Night

&

Morning Again

What Is the Question?

Where are you black boys?

I don’t see many of you on the streets

Are you hiding thinking you’re beat

Where are you…?

I went to the colleges and universities and I saw a few

There’re more, I saw your Mama crying as if she knew

I stopped by the house of prayer

And I didn’t find many there

Where are you…?

I searched America’s corporations

And found too few in that situation

Too afraid to compete

Thinking once again you’ll get beat

Where are you…?

I visited the family homes

And the women folk were all alone

With no man head of their thrones

Looking overworked to the bones
