Someone woke me up this morning
Someone woke me up from my beautiful dream
Someone shut the door of the dreamland
Someone forced me to the real world
Someone broke the line of communication btw the real world and idea world
Someone woke me up from sleep
A sleep that was speaking great things to mah subconscious mind
A sleep that's not like anyother sleep
A sleep that have experienced it for a long time. ........


Why was I woken up
Why did he break the line of communication
Why did this person punish my mind
Why did this person abort my dream
So many why??
But no answers


I can't understand the reasons why it was aborted
I don't know.. ..

although
If it where to be a sound from the mosque. I would know it's time for the early prayers.
If it was from the church. I would known its a wake up call for the days journey.
If its from a baby.. .... I would understand that he/she needed some attention
If it was a mosquito..... I would have known that I left myself to become their prey
If it was from a sound of a blaring horn... .. I would have understand that I have overshot my sleeping time
If it was a ray of light..... I would know that it morning time "sleepy head"
If it was cockroach and rats.. ... I would know it's time to fumigate the house

But alas
It's a generator
A generator having the sound of a caterpillar
A generator woke me up at 4am
A generator truncated mah dream
A generator spoiled the fun

This is so because of the mess in our energy subsector
This is so because we didn't give priority to those sectors that need it
This is so because the leaders failed in their responsibilities
They failed the votes and voters that brought them to power

Hmmmm

#thoughts

Valued:

This is awesome my dear... Can't wait to see the second one

Babe2sure:

Nice one! Very nice one! The sky is your starting point.

Something dropped into my spirit
Something did prick my mind
Something I just can't phantom
Something I just don't understand
Something I can't explain
Something that am still trying to come in terms with
Still trying to join all the linked chains
The pieced words
The opened phrase
And the doted lines


But with all
I still don't understand
Had trouble trying to make meaning of those illusive thoughts
Kept fighting with my spirit because I want to understand
My brain nearly went blank
As I was poundary on this issue

Then
I fell into a trance
A trance I couldn't explain how I came about it
A trance I think I could find answers
A trance I thought will be the magic place where answers could be gotten
A trance that I thought would speak better
A trance I want it to juxtapose all the thoughts, chains, sentence, phrase and dots
A trance I did hoped it will lift the burden


This I did stay for a long time
But
still didn't get the meaning to those inquiries
still can't find answers
still can't find a ray of hope
Still can't .....................



Because all I see are blur images
All I hear are murmur words
With patience and straining of ears I heard a still voice saying
Think outside the box
Think outside the realm of a realist
Give a deeper thought on those thing that doesn't matter
Because the answer u seek for is not here

dre11:





Thanks ladies
Thanks for letting me think outside the box.. ..

Valued:
Dre I like the second one more than the first o, shows you're getting better...ride on!

Valued:

You don't have to thank us

dre11:

I could see the cloud go dark
I could feel that it's gonna rain
I could see people running to find a place to hide
I could just imagine what it would be at home
Parents telling their children to go inside.... Just because it wants to rain
People trying to move their washed cloth from the line
People trying to remove all the perishable foods from the rain
People winding up the screen of their cars
Households closing the window of their houses

This though came up as I try to imagine the effects of the rain......
Aha
Sooner than expected
I see the rain drops
I heard its droplets falling down on the ground and rooftop
I felt it..... although I was not inside the rain
I felt its coolness
I feel its magic
I felt it calmness
The droplets where of different degree
Different speed of dropping
Different circumference

So fast I couldn't watch a drop fall from where I was to the ground level
So fast that all I hear is the sound, noise and chatter of the rain
So fast that the dry land have to emits its heat quickly
So fast that the dry land did absorb the much it could take within some second
So fast that that I could see some pool of water
So fast that the heat has turn to coolness
All this happens with a space of time


So much much heat have evaporated that I could feel comfortable
My discomfort have turned to comfort
The weather revenjunate mah spirit
It's speak comfort to my soul
It's makes the pores lightened up
The blood vessels receive strength to pump
The mind recieve inspiration to write
The soul was able to concieve something new

All this happened with a space of time
With some few minutes
All within the time I was able to take five spoons of what I was eating
I was awe at nature
I was elated to see what just happened

Seeing nature at its best

Am gonna do something on Diamante

Why
Motive, impulse
Mind, knowledge, searching
Search for thought, probing the act/action
Timing, place, duration
Enquiry, perceive
When

This another Diamante

Death
End, loss
Sin, life, sense
Translation to another world, breath of a new beginning
Mind, soul, spirit
Begin, refresh
Live

April07:

Babe2sure:

It's a work-in-progress. Okay.
Keep it coming!

Valued:

Lol

dre11:









Thank you ladies

Still trying to catch some sleep
Still trying to close my eyes
Still trying to relax the nerves
Still trying to let down my thoughts

Trying to allow the brain relax
Trying to forget the real world
Trying to enter into the realm of the idea world
Trying to make that journey to the dreamland

To the world of possibilities
The land of fantasy
The place of escape
Where u do wish to stay for a long time because of its content and experience

But
I found myself not being able to sleep
Not being able to loose myself for nature to have its course
Sleep refused to kiss my eyelids
Sleep decide to take a holiday from me

I decide to pray for sleep to come
Read a book like it was a medicine for sleep
Gazed the letters like its the antidote for the situation I found myself
Listen to music like a man in love

Alas, sleep deserted me
It left at the time I needed it most
Got me thinking if I have wronged the terrestrial powers
It allowed my mind to wallow in its misery

Suddenly, a track play
A message was passed as it playing in its melodious voice
The words were just different to what I used to hear
The lines of words rocked my soul

My mind became inquisitive
Many questions on how does it happen?
Why did it happen, when all pointers show it?
When it does happen............ What next?

This and many more questions I kept coming up in troubled mind
While trying to understand the puzzle
Looking for ways to juxtapose the reasons behind the question
Trying to understand the mindset of humans

After probing..... And much probe
My mind, and sense gives sleep a chance to take me away
The journey to dreamland was about to begin
But the question were never answered

samflexxy:
wow nice work dre but you just invites only ladies to your thread na wa oo



hmmm make me to start day drop my poems

dre11:



Chairman no mind me......
Every one is welcomed
U just give credit to those that did encourage you to drop by

Just as sleep refused to come

WHERE DO BROKEN HEART GO

Humans will always be humans,
We always have to learn everyday.
Bit by bit, time after time.... ....... we understand each other.
That's just the beauty of humans.

Em!
Have gotten my fair share of critique.
Have being attacked, bullied by others.
Have being tongue lashed and abandoned by some.
But, is it a crime to show that I am also human.

Sometimes, I do ask what is the essence of human without diversity.
How robotic humans would have being without this ingredient of diversity.
Thinking.. ........... is it wrong to have a divergent opinion.
Can't we just exhibit the human nature in us.

So,
I say, forgive me when I spoke so soon.
Forgive me when I seems not to understand where you where coming from.
When I seems not to understand your way of expressing what you did felt; why, what made you did what you just did.
This just show you that I am human afterall.

Don't blame me when I look or post in a happy mood when u felt I should have show some restrain.
Looking so happy, thinking it will help to take the pain away.
Making you see the bright side of the situation.
Just know that you are as human as I am.

Forgive me when my posting language don't reflect what is happening to you.
Don't be angry when it did look I never share in your grieve, disappointment, anger, pains and let down.
Don't take it out on me because I wasn't grieving with you.
It was never ment to be like that.

Don't get annoyed when I do go overboard on some issues, when I don't share ur points, actions, ways.
Forgive me for turning a blind eyes to ur pains and apology.
Don't take it out on me when my words doesn't speak comfort to you.
Just this time am asking for your forgiveness.

I do hope u find it in your hearts to forgive.
Just know that am not making an excuses for mine actions.
I do hope you understand that am not perfect.
I hope you do understand that we are all humans in our diversity...............

Purity1:
you're good at what you do, i've been trying to put something down for a long time now, it's not easy so keep it up

Valued:

Nice poem...THEY GO TO GOD.

Babe2sure:

Lol @wronged the terrestrial powers.
Where do broken heart go?
Me sef no know o.
Since me and you no know. Who we go ask now?
Nice piece!

dre11:



Are u sure that u don't know where they do go

Who can I look up to.
Just that person that can bring me out of my misery.
Going na-ked just because of fashion.
Unclad just because it's fits and looks good to the eyes.
Devalue the culture just because I want to feel among.
Allowing a snail shell to be ripped off just to expose its beneath.
Oh.. ........ Am held captive by fashion.


How can I come out of this state I do find myself.
Put an end to this madness I crave for.
Going back to that vomit I once sown never to go back.
Tormenting my innocence with words.
Words that drops like honey combs from his mouth.
Febble heart I do have.
Oh.. ...... Am in bondage of his words.


How can I get this out of mah bloodstream.
Craving for all what money can buy.
The thrist to be noticed.
Why does my soul long for vain things.
Enslaved to this changing world.
Obeying the ordinance to this changing world even when it's doesn't make sense.
Oh.. ......... Am enslaved to civilization


The harmattan is gone, the rain is here.
The flowers appear all over the vegetation.
I could hear the birds singing, the cricket whispers, the ant moving on a straight line.
The contour, bellows, ridges coming up in their glory.
The dead plants was given a chance to live.
This I couldn't describe with the little vocabulary in me.
Oh.. ........ Am a subjugated to nature


See this lady in red.
A cluster of champhire in the king vineyard.
Ruby was the least stone to describe the beauty that ozz out.
She.. ....... who my eyes finds no spots.
How she did ravish my senses just seeing her glow in glory.
I lost my guards at the sight of her appearance.
Oh.. ........ Am enchanted to her beauty.


I couldn't deny that I was held captive by fashion.
Held in bondage by words.
Enslaved to the world of civilization.
Subjugated by the aura of nature.
Enchanted by the beauty of a woman
But, who can save me from this madness.
Who is that person coming to rescue me from this prison.
