NDIDI UBOGU Poems

My mother!
So many years ago still I remember
As always your beauty glitters like an angel.
Yesterday to this day you remain the same
...

It is yesterday that is trying to invade
The darling soil of a wonderland
The moon is yellow; these tears won't be in vain
For your voice cries out from the underground
...

Long I that special few hours
When Bugzy and Ditto will joyfully display their talents
In the presence of this poetry
We will be on the shores of a gentle blue
...

The time came when crickets sang unpleasant songs
When stars became visible but struggled to shine
When moon shed tears of blood!
...

Right now I'm on a broken plastic chair
My piano sitting opposite me
Listening to an old sweet song
Thinking about my sweet melody
...

In a pool of pain and bitterness,
Comforted by contrition and unexplainable love,
I looked into the skies with my hands high …
I closed my naked eyes and asked why.
...

When will the sunshine?
A good leaf is about to wither
As the serpent suffers from animosity
The mind antagonises the self.
...

Slay not the aged rooster
He can predict the future
As festive season approaches... he vanishes!
And now he is seven.
...

Before you shut the door
Have mercy on these tears
See me not as an ugly beast
Just take a second to remember
...

The moon shone sorrowfully
In the middle of the night
A tree trembled with fright
As the wind whipped its branches
...
