I am indeed flattered by my friends in this tread and they are as follow nike4luv, ToyM28, kellorah! You girls are making me feel too high but , Actually, I never knew this poem could earn me anything on this earth but I was surprise when in less than three month I wrote the poem, a publishing house in London, Poetry Now under the umbrella of Forwardpress, accepted the poem for publication in her then forthcoming anthology. And ever since then I've learnt to believe in the poem. Ladies, your applaud reminds me of the day I received the letter of acceptance of this poem from the said publishing house in London. Thank you so much for liking and applauding the poem, not me! Fraternally, Aderemi Adegbite |

This is interesting. You girls are really catching fun here with your loved ones, I guest. And some real guys kept coming to see your stuffs. I am here to intervene with some mathematical expression. Enjoy it. Gravity Of Love Mathematicians build the world Mathematicians rule the world Nothing without mathematical expression in the world, My believe is in codes and numbers My believe is in logic and equations That leads to logical reasoning. Many problems I've solved by codes and equations All equations I've solved by logic, symbols and numbers Yet I'm not satisfied by my lifetime pursuits. One day, one day I asked myself What is the right number or symbol? What is the perfect equation? What truly is LOGIC? And who decides right reasoning? In cause of no answer to my quest, I traveled through the physical and metaphysical, I traveled through the delusional and mystical And at last back to the physical. I made most important invention of my life career That it's only in the mysterious equation; logic of love Any logical; mystical and psychological reasoning can be found. It's you in me I only believe that's true and real. Your love is mysterious as an echo in my heart, Your love is natural as life in my heart; Forever will you be new as day in my life. You're the only reason why I live and continue In my logic, equation, number, symbol and code. AdeRemi AdeGbite |

I think it is fantastic to cherish ones treasure. Our children are our treasure and sort of the earth. I like this poem. But I will like as well to look at it from another angle. This is a poem I wrote three years ago based on my experience and i think it fits into this tread. Enjoy it. Free Love Scientist is my lovely little lass, In velocity and acceleration she believes And mixed molecules of chemical with base. Her presence packs me off my feet, Her eloquence perfects the paragon I paint; In her heart tenderness I faint! Awakened by fragrances perceived through her pass; Let go not her affection is ranting; Her emotion, ejaculated me off my pant! Love the thread of emotion That gathers passion and action, And abort first sight portion, Guide me through passion of mission; Strengthen my motion with power of expression Coded in action of explanation. Free love is distinct from all love, But love I have is hate to love; Misinterpretation cause commotion of emotion. Expression pair action calm aggression When explanation explains main mission Moved by motion of firm affection. When my eyes pierce the sky, I skipped to see but your name Boldly blinking like stars in the shy. The only masterpiece I know as Angel, My heart is heavy and fragile While your dazzling figure kept calling for agile. I am whole here for attention To review my main mission And break silence of my motion. I feel you deep down my heart, But your emotion never convey my motion, Friendship, in the depth of emotion its my mission! AdeRemi AdeGbite |

The Trial Of Poets Case number one hundred and eight Allegation stated: the trial of poets Presume all present in this court? Poets are guilty of nonchalant Towards life when they chant And humans elevated above height Poets are murderer of words In pursuant of rhymes and rhythms All in the name of poetic licenses! My Lord, I am the spokesman for poets We gathered today to defend our faith, With elaborate explanations "We're not guilty" Poets are romantic Poets are passionate Poets are affectionate They see things in different ways They view life in complex manners And break it down to simplest views Passions flow out of poets Emotions gush out of poets Affections rush out of poets Though lines in systematic ways, Form stanzas in logical manners Accomplished with unique titles. Poets are Marvelous Poets are Mysterious Poets are Contentious At times they seem blind But see clearer than eagles In search for daily bread. At times they seem dumb But are paretic through powerful media; Pen on paper to speak their mind. At times they seem deaf But clearer than the broken walls, And think wisely before they talk. At times they seem naked But clothed like chameleon, Only caring less of that you cherish. Going up and down of the beach Is search of rhymes and rhythms, The wildest in the network of poets. The heaven and earth The sum, the moon and the stars Are eternal poets. The South and the West The North and the East, Sing rhythmical songs. Poets are Marvelous Poets are Mysterious Poets are Contentious This court has jurisdiction over poets And as the spokesman of the poets, Hence my Lord, my case I rest. I, the judges of this court Am a prototype of a poet, For I preside over this court. Lawyers and court clerks are poets, Plaintiffs and defendants are poets, They arrange their statements systematically before the court; With effective defense of poets Thus panel of judges of this law court Discharge and acquit poets!

Hallucination[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font][color=#770077][/color] I don't know who he was So I'm scared of his shadow Along the lengthy lightless street I screamed when he came closer But he stood still behind my shadow. I saw traces of muscular movement Towards the lonely path I tread, At a point I heard massive sound In batches of muggy muscular troops Trodden towards my lonely path All in trance of shattered shadows, I mellow down on my roaring race And suddenly stood still on a spot Then I felt a fierce grip Of the faceless shadow firmly On my fragile shoulder's hill Intermittently, breathless slowly I turned To view the huge aghast figure Though once even prior death But in realization I met Not fierce figure neither any mug Nor am I on any lightless street, Though my rum mind set Amidst my comic and art library.

This is group is fantastic. But the problem is that we are not talking poetry with poetry. Please let us try as much as possible to speak in poetic tone. Thanks. Aderemi Adegbite |

[center]Bed Kiss Drizzle dropping down the cloud Never net nasty heavily rainfall, Dew drizzling down the cloud Drastically during dusk and dawn failing Makes mighty most ocean not. Tongue and teeth rift often Though settle not second past. My dearest darling ages love Mellow down your uncommon rave' Today wrong tilt towards my path Tomorrow might unfold your part. Love bears certain circumstances As life father unmeasured instances. I crave your perfect pardon dearest darling; I'll henceforth turn right from my wrong dealings, Honey, a five minute lasting long caressing kiss Assure your tender heart pleases Here on the bed I want, elsewhere not!

[center]Kowry Kreations Media …shell of creativity[/center] [center]Press Release [/center] Poetry Potter, a presentation by Kowry Kreations Media has now recorded five editions since the launch of this programme in January, this year. Hence, we have kept faith with our mission statement “towards the revitalization and sustainability of African arts, culture and value systems through oral, recitation and performance poetry, folktales and songs, which were the nucleus of education and intellectual discussion in the ancient period of Africa. Since the principal aim of Kowry Kreations Media, as a literary organization, is to create a platform where creativity might be exhibited and enhanced, we thought it befitting to include within the vessel of our programme, Poetry Potter, two other interesting segments. These are: African Voices in the Diaspora and a Yearly Publication of an anthology of poems, short dramas and songs presented since the inception of the programme and to offer an audio CD. The first publication of the anthology and the CD respectively will be launched at the 12th edition of Poetry Potter, which is billed for January, 2007. Therefore, African Voices in Diaspora is aimed at giving our in-house audience the opportunity to listen and appreciate the creative ingenuity of African writers in other parts of the world. And also give African writers, in the Diaspora, the opportunity to participate in the programme at every edition. This will take effect from this month. Interested writers should send his/her work(s) to kowrykreationsmedia@yahoo.com with ten lines of bio-data. As it is in our tradition to have a literary icon who chairs the event, as the Guest Artiste at every edition, Akeem Lasisi, the winner of the ANA-Cadbury Poetry Award 2005 and the Art editor of The Punch (newspaper) is our Guest Artiste of the month. The creator of Minus Poetry, Wale Ajakaye, will be at the event, not to recite minus poetry but to sing Ijala, the song of the hunters. Segun Tobi whose stage name is Are, also promises to thrill the audience with his unique African rhythm. We must apologise that Poetry Potter could not be hold last month, June 2006, for logistical reasons. You can only imagine how disappointed we, the organizer of the programme, were. We request you join us for the July edition, the sixth edition, which will be held on 29th July, 2006, at the National Library Hall, opposite the Casino Cinema, Alagomeji, Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria. The programme will start by 4 p.m., so please by prompt, no African time. Endeavour to come in your native attire. Admission is free!

I am indeed sorry if my sending of the Press Release has caused inconvenience in this group. I had thought that this Press Release is Nigerians and Africans writers who are member of this Group, that was the reason why I sent it in the first instance. However, I tender my unreserved apology to whole member of the group. Thanks. Aderemi Adegbite. |
