Jubril Balogun Poems

Once an infant, a toddler,
When crying or laughing,
meant all to my mother
Only means of communication
...

Where words are pregnant.
Thoughts go deep.
Purpose begs important.
Reasons conceived.
...

2day surely is d day.
U add one to ur age.
Hoping u see more of such grace.
And ur labor not lost to vain.
...

Be it a box?
Rather an oval enclosure.
Embracing tightly.
Bidding much comfort.
...

In my eyes you may not see
Worries cloud my true emotions
Like waves trapped with the sea
My heart lives in detention
...

Do i care?
...Hate to think i do.
Does my thought centers on you?
...Wish they dont.
...

Verily I've walked the earth surface
Long has been the days
Far was the journey
Versed with words to
...

Gone were those days
Lost were the times
When our hearts were one
Whereto over distance
...

A great sight holds the night
The moon hangs like pearl amidst stars bright
A bliss upon those weary of heart
Save mine wandering in lust
...

In odd times
when days are hard
throat dried,
And bread-loaf stoned...
...
