ok..on it . Finished the keeping time poem.

Saved on my flash drive which I am about to go pick up now. So i post the poem and i get my massage? 8-)

KEEPING TIME
The c.o.c.k crows high into the morning sky
Honks of early Oshodi danfo buses train my sleep
As i tear my face away from the clock
And i recite solemly to myself
You still got plenty of time
It takes you just a minute to get dressed
And seconds to lace your shoe.


I clutch more tighter to my pillow
Turning left right till i willowed
Gently savouring the bliss of my dreams
No pleasure comes this close
Would it hurt the world i ask
If I take extra five minutes to rest?


My mama use to tell me words
Make hay while the sun shines
And time waits for no man she had say
But I beg to disagree dear mama
The clock is just a creation of a drunk frenchman
And I blame that device for my life ills

Lost a big contract
Carried over Old man's course
Got demoted and embarrased
Just cos I couldnt keep time
That was destined i would yell
Aint my fault i arrived late for the party
Or i missed the bus cos i was late
I didnt know the clock from Adam
And would leave clocks to time keepers
As I go on grudingly living my life
Knowing that keeping time is my nemesis!

okay, here it goes...



Thoughts of you, births me anew
My heart leaps in thousand places
my soul sings with renewed fervour
My eyes light up with thousand sparks
My lips itch to declare its secrets
whenever I stare at the beauty of you
For that aura i could trade eternity

yet....
Everytime i shatter in pieces
My heart freeze in its depths
I drown in the mystery of rejection
Tears stick to my cheek like a wound
My being is weakened beyond measures
As i watch my sun pass me by
And watch it set constantly on the west
As it derides me with its light
To beam on another Lass.

Am broken beyond measures
My days are empty like the wind
my morning is defeated by darkness
And grief cast its light on my nights

Free your beloved from sinking
I plead you smile a while at me
Cast your light on the east
How much should i go to say these words?
I Love you! I swear i will explode!
I want to scream with every energy! I love you!

Then this whispers drowns it out.
'He don't hear you, your love is unrequited' embarassed

princesa you should....because you deserve it...gone through your poems thread and I must say they make sense. I dont write poems really in the past...I am more of an analytical writer.

I am short of phrases now...but would get one across to you soon?
