LOVE LETTERS & POETRY!!

love is an non-comprehensible thing.you love someone but still cheat on them, mostly men. people in love would give up everything, even their lives, to be with that person they love.(think romeo and Juliet...bonny and Clyde) you may have sex with a girl you do not like and after you ejaculate, you do not want to see her again. you are off the bed, in your trousers and off. but after making love to a person one likes or loves, you want her to lie on your chest, hold her, watch her sleep or even if you get up, it would be to make her breakfast and serve t in bed.
there are many forms that have been used to express feelings and emotions. love letters and poems i think are so far the most common, since ancient days and until now.y'all have been trough high school. those adolescent days when love and the opposite sex was almost all you thought about. of at least 4 nights in a seven night week, i'd spend my prep writing if not reading a letter over and over to get what was really being communicated. at that time when i really did not write any poetry, i would copy some Shakespeare lines and throw them in there, we would use opening lines like WAKAPANGALAPANGLASHIZZLE(whatever that meant, it did not matter), we'd lace the letter with cheap perfume. considering that most major high schools in Kenya are single boarding schools, a letter was almost all you had as a form of communication to the opposite sex in a far of school.
for like two or so years now, the poetry buzz in Nairobi has been phenomenal. these days, almost everybody can string words together(check the latest notes from your friends. most are poetry). we have events weekly. of different kinds, hosted by different people and attracting different audiences. so now think off all that buzz in just one place...i present to you the poster on my front page. and i'm the man behind the scenes....that's how a guru works. i rocked you with a poem from the archives that i'm sure most of you liked. so come witness....may be i may even perform. not until Shakespeare does a collabo with Eminem.
cheers.


YOU ARE MY TREASURE(Meddy guru)


you are my treasure,
the most valued from all this girl-mine!
that's a pleasure,because you are mine.
giving me so much pleasure,you get me high like wine so fine.
my relaxation and leisure,
you inspire in me what's divine but with no define.
my serenity like the sky that's azure,
and like it lets the sun, you make me shine.
i'm tranced they say i have a seizure,
its because people don't think on cloud nine.
i think of asia, your purity like an unadulterated shrine.
  n this closure,i hope we are thine.
