My poem is about Children... **thinking ** A gem is born, prayers roll in So innocent and pure, looking so stunning, lovely songs mum& granny keeps humming, Every second, the starlight keeps shining, Family ensuring the flower keeps blooming Oh, I want to stop growing 3 Likes

Hi guys. I actually wrote a poem now and was thinking of posting it on nairaland. ALAS! when i got here i saw this thread and i decided to drop just some piece from it since i was permitted to use six lines. That poem is talking about Nigeria and when God was creating her and her citizenry. u can imagine an archangel questioned God on how he could give the land so much fertility and natural resources. Amazingly God answered the angel to 'look' at the caliber of the people he is putting in the land to govern it. Guys, i cant wait to drop the full poem on here. let me know what u think about the poem and yes! im in for the competition too. don't forget to let me know about the one i dropped above. I really take delight at people criticizing my work. THANKS ...... drabeey |

THANK YOU all for questioning my soul and its flesh, like its easy to piss on heaven and forget the whispers of death. I appear in the nightmare of gods and every of my word is as real as it gets, but i'm nothing. Just a concept, Oblivion!!! 1 Like |

I saw it happening, saw the thunder start clapping The stars burned out charing as the sun then blackened I saw it spread out like arms of a kraken I saw the prophet dying saying "You people should have hearkened!" I saw the doom sweeping the world away like a broom I saw the blood of the innocent rising up towards the sky like fumes. 3 Likes |

Like the rain fall it comes down hard and bombed like the rain thundered you can hear it sound hard with murder like the mud you can see the pieces it brought with the blood i lay, far away, shivering in dismay, i wondered why it turns this way it was once peaceful we all together, we mingle.. now, we speak thunder, utter words with fire, beaming with neighbours crying... when will it rain gently again.. thunder strikes but without any pain when will the smile be it real again when will i see you with my eyes shut when will the rain fall again? 2 Likes |

I looked up to the sky
The sun brimming with exuberance
I can get higher than that and its not a lie
I can't be stopped..gravity is no resistance
Yeah I'll need a lot help from one who is above all
So I look to the hills to one who answers when I call 1 Like |

As Kids we hoped and prayed,
That the times we had fun and played,
Should have stayed,
Or at least could be replayed,
But Like the tides and waves,
One day we all shall fade. |

[i][/i]THE BROKEN TAPE It was, No. It seems to be the happiest of her days A smile on her face adores The silk like the rainbow looked The gentle Joe in his house confined. It came from no where It refused to stop Blood on the ground flowed Jessica! Jessica! Joe called out A month has gone by She, on a tyred chair seated Staring into the cloudless sky To find meaning air that flowed The illumination of happiness gone The feeling of companionship vaporized Left he did. The aura he hated The only love received now comes from Mother She cried and cried... He whom she had loved with her ALL She cringed to her mother's breast The handkerchief on her face wiped. The morning sun was so good The body was so cold, so cold for a living being Mother cried and cried Jessica! Jessica! She moaned. "Mom I'm sorry" on the note written Very bereaved she became. The life in her gone soon. Mom did not read what in the back of the note written Joe read it. Joe burnt it. And to this day no one knows what was written there Joe's life has been..... Since the day he read it. [left] |

All I want to do is change the world. Just when I think I have learned the way to live, life changes. Change is such hard work. The more things change; the more they're the same. To change what you get you must change who you are. Change is constant. # Dr.Razzo |

Every morning your favourite tea I brew, days spent waiting for the stranger I once knew, evening's drinking to the promises that were once true, the perfect ending for one, an empty bed for the other, I belong to you but you have chosen another, Who would have thought I could live without my lover. 5 Likes |
