Girl From The Grave Poem by Chime Justice Ndubuisi

Out of the grave, out of the grove
Comes a girl, pretty like daughter of Jove
And eyes as innocent as a dove.
I wouldn't mind giving you all my love
(But you are a girl from the grove) .

There is no pretense in your essence;
I could barely make a complete sentence.
You strike me with your innocence,
I cower at the aura of your presence
(And there is always your presence)


I don't know how you do it
But you are perfect and swift
You always ignite a burning heat
In me, and keep me asking for it
(And I always come asking for it) .

I always find myself at your services,
It's amazing how you make me nervous
.
I guess you figured that I'm a novice
And swept me off my feet without any notice
(And I can't help myself even with a notice) .

But you are still the girl from the grove
Innocent and simple as a dove
With whom I have deposited my love,
But you are always on the move
(And you carry with you my love) .
