Do you remember?

Do you remember the first day we met?
The sun gave a whopping smile
That exposed the nakedness of the sky
A hi exchanged from four eyes
Emotional words wrapped behind sounds
And the whispers of our thoughts

Do you remember the first night at the park?
Nature’s splendour carving the moon’s jealousy
The sky at its best costume
The arts, the cinema, and two lovely souls at the park

Do you remember the night we first kissed?
Perfect moments stowed in time forever
The thoughts, the lips, and the gentle kisses
The journey to the seventh heaven

Do you remember the first void?
Seven oceans sever bodies but not our souls
Through two thick cords and platoons of air
We talked and laughed and shared deep feelings

Do you remember the first argument?
You became the wind, I was the ocean;
We fought not to be over
But to be together, forever
The words of war became the words of love

Do you remember the first romance?
Two bodies moving in sync on wedding’s night
One moaning and the other groaning in compliment
Breathtaking night in our deepest love diary

Do you remember all that we did in time?
How we laughed and played and sang and danced
How we shared and cared and encouraged
How we did our things in our own world
Do you remember that life has been nothing without you…?

Fairy Tales of the Deities…

I was there when Oludumare Sent Obatala on a journey to this planet I heard those echoes of words spoken And moved with the words of creation Obatala , dressed in supreme white Moulded and Oludumare blessed with breath My ancestors lived, but I existed I was a sparkle in the sword of Ogun The god of all metals All metals obeyed him with annealing fear And my ancestor worshipped in despair I was fire in the mouth of Sango , The god of thunder strike At the Alaafin , I watched as eyes sparked and flickered And Sango in an unfair mountain fury   Smote his antagonist I watched as god turned to mortal, Oba Koso. I was the distinct beauty of Oya god of rebirth; who in annoyance Turned the clayey land to a river Niger And Osun ; heart-broken dissolved to rivers of waters To heal, to revive and give woman, children Yemoja in blazing boastfulness Proved to be mother of waters Nurtured the best of water...

Tribute

Tribute to Nigerians Who lived to fight But died at bullets sight For justice, for equity For change, for betterment Tribute to Nigerians Whose smiles suffer them And their cries are never heard Who suffers for daily bread While deep inside, they bleed Tribute to Nigerians Who wake up early to sleep late Hawking for bread, hustling in stress Working, but worked out Striving, but starved to death Tribute to Nigerians Who did not place religion above man But place man above religion Who are their brother’s keeper Who honours the difference in others Tribute to Nigerians Whose friends betrayed and colleagues dismayed In prisons and cell blocks for no offense Praying yet; yet prayed for their foes Men of valour, buried without honour Tribute to Nigerians Who saw political fraudsters and liars And were brave enough to stand their feet Not corrupt by lies, not swayed by bribes Who in t...
