Iquo Umoh Poems

Thy glories have all so receded
...

Life is sweet to some
To others it is sour
...

Very many words are spoken in this world
so little time to say them all..
or to retrieve them back.
Like the wind they are dispersed throughout the earth
...

Her name is love.
I have never seen her,
I have never met her,
Neither have I spoken to her,
...

Dear child within me,
You were conceived,
As tiny as you were,
You grew into a living being.
...

I have learnt that to say few words is wise,
To hide your originality is discrete,
To preserve your integrity is honorable
And to speak the truth is golden.
...

Point blank, I can't run from it;
Glaring at my face each day,
The reality that I have matured,
Though within I still feel a child.
...

Listen in the still of the night
To Him that has great might
For He has an immense foresight
For your life to bring delight
...

Time flows into the timeless orbit of eternity
I am enveloped by eternity
Timeless bits of time is lived
Limitless I am but yet to
...

Men! Men! ! Men! ! !
Like bees they swarm
At the scent of a woman
In search of nectar essence
...
