Obinna Kenechukwu Eruchie Poems

Ever you, I treasure with daffodils,
Abundant by nature around the hills.
Your elegance, that gift rich to me, thrills
My trunk's bosom with sunlight sheer it fills.
...

The vast sphere-screen is freshly seen, cheered by sunsheen;
sensation sweet by the wind neat with wings of heat;
a lone palm-tree dwells at the lea by the lush sea,
and on them worn is the smile born of a white morn;
...

Time, on your fins aeonian over space
holding, loosing, taking back events passed
through your units-each marching on a face
of twelve. Souls who do bond to you are classed
...

The eyes of two in love meet
constant to picture how sweet
their hearts fit as one complete;
their joys for each other neat
...

What kings in towers waste hell their powers?
Foul is inclined on arms assigned
To the soldiers by war's masters.
Such biting truths in many youths
...

Her absence pours into my mind, despair;
my soul worn—dull like day set to expire.
My heart apart my love's absence does tear—
hence my paint-brush on canvas—make entire
...

My mistress, your heart's beauty does exalt
the flame of tenderness glowing within;
no doubt my mind's balance is like a fin
for swimming, it does perform without fault.
...

My eyes go wistful, but you will never note them.
Smiles I've thrown in vain to tell you how sweet it is
to see you face to face, taking you for a gem
gracing my life's atmosphere productive of bliss.
...

I stand on a sod there I dwell,
with not a step to take from there.
I'm a beauty gay on a fell
at the mercy of the wind's care.
...

The sun dim in its blaze, is trite
to persevere in its dear fight
to hang on to the sky, sets quite
earthward like a down-sloping kite;
...
