Chime Justice Ndubuisi Poems

I did not see or know,
Who, from nowhere this great ball threw,
Out of whose golden hand it was sewn,
Or whose great brain drew the plan.
...

I shot my eyes through the orbit
It was empty and void, worlds apart.
Through the outer space
It raced, through endless space
...

When we woke on day three,
We found us sitting under an oak tree.
We've been dreaming the same dream,
We remember, each the same dream:
...

I've lost my patience in waiting!
Now am on an eagle's wings speeding
And if only I could buy more time,
I would fly until I can fly no more
...

Do you remember this place
Oh woman of my youth?
This lone path before the bridge?
I met you here, on this path.
...

You will indulge me
In the cool waters of your river.
I would swim in your presence,
I would be clothed in your brazier.
...

What time of the day it is
Is probably improbable
Except that like some ancient walls
We fall and crumble 'gbiim' belly-wise!
...

my king only greeted my wife once,
now he has her completely.
He said she is a fountain
where honey drips from hollow combs,
...

My dearly beloved shadow of light;
My light when the day is dead
Receive and keep me in your brazier,
Receive me your resident lost.
...

Perhaps, you don’t need me anymore
lying thirsty by the sea shore
wrapped in gripping fear,
away from things so dear,
...
