Nigerian Teenage Poet Selling Poem To Donate To B.H. Victims by AnonymX: 1:37pm On Mar 24, 2015 |
I came across this online on the blog of Nigerian teenage poet, Timothy Nkenu today: [b]Inspired by Project Borno started by Nigerian Singer, Morell, I decided to write the "SUDDENLY". Today, I decided to find a means of donating to the people, selling the poem! Please be guaranteed that ALL revenue generated from this would go to the victims. The Poem: We were outside the compound Smiling faces and merry hearts Enjoying the evening breeze Living the normal life of peasants Brother’s wife was pregnant Dad’s farm had bloomed My grades had improved Mum’s leg had healed We had ourselves We had family We had love We had, above all, peace Suddenly! A sound came Then another And another Suddenly! A bullet came flying Then another And another Suddenly! Brother got hit Then dad Then mum Suddenly Our home was set ablaze Then Musa’s Then Danladi’s Suddenly! My town became alien to me Then the next And the next Suddenly! Peace flew away Then stability disappeared And progress vanished Suddenly! All I hear now are the bullets All I smell now is blood Drip, drop, the blood flows Tick, tock, the time goes Who would hear my voice? Who would rescue me? Who would speak for me? For all I ever had has disappeared Suddenly! To buy and for more info:[/b] http://pensideoftim..com/2015/03/donate-to-boko-haram-victims-by.html |
