Desmond Y. Eklu Poems

Clear views of awe
Making one for a Popinjay
For the admired to admire
The support of life
...

Each day of my life I pray
that pains be no more
and sorry be not for lovers of me
but I fear what I feel
...

It wasn't my wish to let go,
After months and years of being gay
To a summary of differences
Created by indeferences.
...

I've lost the mind
And reasoning is my new folly
Because I love her
...

It covered my face so well
As I walked between the walls.
Laughter and confidence was my own
And that I never owed.
...

Along the dark roads
I could hear the sound of toads
beeping the days time
as though a woman in her prime
...

Admiring, I choose to love
Chasing after the signs of love
And longing for a chance
But she plays hard to get
...

My promise to risk it all
With planned frowns to test
The heart of that which I seek
...

There she was,
Brave on site,
With never ending heights
And protruding heads
...

Mama
If angels were human
You are the angel of my life
When I wake to boring mornings
...
