If I Were Lady... Poem by Poet Akinwemimo Idris

IF I WERE LADY

I have walked,
The breath and,
Lenght of Eves.

If I were lady,
For minor days,
I will amend...

Gone a lot of,
The love seekers,
In books of histories.
A lot only gained,
Were vains of death.

Romeo and Juliet,
Jack and Rose...
Can you still read,
Oh dear readers,
Book of scenarios?

If I were lady,
For minor days,
I will amend....

Is too much of Us,
Dieing as Puppets.
We hold the Lilly,
Alas for undeserved.

If I were Lady,
For minor days,
I will amend....

Though Alake...
The air I breathe,
Has succumbed....
To rules of love.

But If I were,
Still a lady....
Fore minor days,
I will amend...

Oh dear ladies!
Fray please in haste.
The rope you belayed.
On men... on us....

Give us the flute!
To voice through,
Lungs of breeze..
Love us as we do...
Keep us and abreast.
