"Ƒoя long in solitude i sat
And wished some1 out there cud hear ♏ԑ sing
Sing in height of soulfulness
And in d fountain of freedom
Where d gods colour words
And angels drool from its allure
I flowed among d heavenly clouds
And wished my kind to klass
puff off мч mind's bloom

And bless hearts with word's wealth untamed

Fresh, freely flowing from d lips of glowing human angels"

and finally here we roll
in treasure troves

dot me up hbg
for long my soul longed
to live but once more

lets dab, shall we?

this is for you Fstar, S gurl, bblend, vRhymes and TEA esq™

I'm in. I design and I write.
Re: Nairaland's "The Poet" Competition Season 2 by Cuddlemii: 8:06pm On Jul 27, 2013
classicdea: I'm in. I design and I write.

No problem.
Which do you prefer? Both can be accommodated!
This means you'd write in Round 1, and if you qualify for the next round, you'd do both.
However, if you do not qualify for Round 2, then you'd have the choice of backing out or designing for another poet.
Let's keep a positive mind, and hope you make it through cheesy
Thank you!

#itchy fingers...cant wait

the memories keep coming back
the thoughts keep haunting you
you’ve given up
you’ve worked so hard to climb up
but yet again you are falling back

I write lots of poems. In particular between 2011 and 2012. I
occassionally write now. I'm sad because I lost a whole book
of poems and essays but I'll bear it and hope I start afresh. I
should be writing a few poems here.
