Happiness And Sorrows(poetry) -Tinydick by Nobody: 6:11pm On Nov 21, 2016 |
Until of recent ,,,,,reading of anything long is no go area for me except it is related to football. But over the past few weeks, things really changed, I started growing interests in reading after I had visited the Literature section on this forum thanks to wonderful writers we have all over here who I've been following silently but keenly,,,, someone like skarlett,shewrites,pabon, Creeza,,,,,in fact dem plenty,,,,,I no even remember,,,, thanks y'all Soooooo,,,,,,as I'm enjoying other people's work, another interest pop out and that's writing my own which now gives birth to this thread where I 'll be sharing my Joys and sorrows in form of poems. NB: I'm novice and I want to learn,,,criticism and corrections are highly appreciated. Apology for my future grammatical blunder(s), I'm sure, very sure it (errors) will come in abundant measure 4 Likes 3 Shares |

My Country Gratitude!! We re part of ur existence Epitome of beauty, strength, greatness You 're filled with with Einsteins Pride of Negroid, Your weather is second to none Agility of your offsprings, incomparable Pity! your children 're vision-less Shame! They don't know their potentials They rely much on westerns Food, clothes,machines and lives even Shame! Shame!! Shame!! Your family is in fragments Brothers killing and rendering brothers homeless Hopes 're shattered! No thanks to religion beliefs No thanks to you for marrying three wives and many concubines Why were the cost of your maintenance so high? Why were your sons managing your affairs so centered? On your wealth they sits Cares only for their mouths and fingers Using younger ones as thugs Will it ever end? Children of one of your wife wants to leave To build a new house and start a new home To adopt new surname! They feels neglected and marginalized Why were thousands of your own children always sad? happy only when bad news comesforth from you! Why d' they love only brothers and sisters of their own mother? They ve turned your house into fighting arena Yet, You kept mute! For how long? Would it ever end? When would we have PEACE as common lingua? Please trade our sorrow for joy, strife for smile! Have our shattered hope restored Give us reason to live, to be proud and to believe oh! NIGERIA 6 Likes 4 Shares |

I just got reminded of Josesh Diescho, a Namibian author and political analyst. He cried plenty about Africa's infelicity as many of us do. I'm here 1 Like |
