***WRITING LIKE THE GREATS***

 

                     Poetry was my second love. When I found out I could do poetry it led to my love for creating music.

The Little Dancing Rabbit 
I am a little rabbit 
Stuck in a habit 
Collecting all my eggs 
For girls and boys who begg 
Santa asks me 
What makes you happy? 
I answer 
Always wanted to be a dancer 
Follow your dream 
No matter how hard it may seem 
Thanks for the advice 
Now I am sure to advance 
So I hope to get the chance 
At the annual Halloween dance 
Today is payday 
All ready to play 
Dressed like Albert Castello 
Ready to shake it like jello 
I wait for my song 
Now to dance all night long 
After the shyness died 
I danced and was glad I tried 
They all clapped and in they joined 
In the end we were all overjoyed 
Now I am a little rabbit 
no longer stuck in a habbit 
-Steven Kayiira 

NO WHERE TO GO

Our love is as bright as a rainbow 
Yet we have no where to go 
No shelter to breed 
Food day to day we feed 
Our love for each other 
Like non other 
Pray for blessing's from above 
And somehow we foster this love 
... Our love will help us survive 
Only God can keep us alive 
-Steven Kayiira

 

SELF-PORTRAIT

I am an Artist therefore it is my fate
to create
to pickup a pencil
or use a stencil
to get on stage and faint
or to pickup a brush and paint
I live to imagine
why go out when we can use my skills and dine in 
I do wonders with chicken 
I also sing you should listen 
I am the mordern day Picasso 
or at least I say so 
I love to invent 
ideas that are heavenly sent 
with the computer a magician 
on the mic a true musician 
don't need a handout don't need to get paid 
as long as the world knows I am a Steve of all trades 
-STEVEN KAYIIRA 

TEAR

It pours from the heart 
passes through the soul 
then waterfalls through the eyes 

It's innocent at the start 
then pours through us all 
like the soft wispers of a million butterflies 

like a song once lost 
A dream remembered 
a prodigal son returned 

Cold as mid-winter's frorst 
A warm summer's dew 
And a spring's rebirth 

Before it is all through 
Mother earth gives birth 
And all the tiny humans reclaim the earth 
-Steven Kayiira 

 

TRUE BLISS


LOVE 
THE LIFE 
IN YOU MAY ALL 
YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE 
-STEVEN KAYIIRA
