Babatunde Aremu Poems

Promise! promise! ! promise! ! !
That's all what they give
That's all we have.
Every four years,
...

Our father's goat
Has eaten our father's portion
So, pardon all the goats
The state is theirs.

She is beautiful like Cleopatra
Excellent like the queen of Sheba
She exudes hope
She is promising
...

Once terror reigned
Men postrated at altars
Women wailed for elusive peace
Pastors fasted for heavenly peace
...

Mr Judge is benchman
He judges the low and high
He ought to sancrosant
His words are sacred
...

If you want to know me
Read my poems
If you want to understand me
Painstakingly meditate on my sonnets

Once I was in a picnic
Adults sat restricted in groups
Minding their own businesses
Every adult's love was restricted

Great rivers have their sources
Lion cannot forget the jungle
Where ever ship sails to
It must be anchored at the coast
...

Its a long night
When sun closed her eyes
Refusing to share her rays
Bidding daylight bye
...

It is colder when alone
People are warmth garments
That keeps us warm in the cold
A tree that stands alone
...
