My Dream Poem by Prince Adedeji S. Ologbenla

I had a dream of a land so blessed
Where the moon dance to the gentle night wind
A place with its night always an hour of shining stars
Where tall palm trees rusle in high night breeze
And the glee glinting dew last longer on leaves
A sky so blue with an artistic spray of white
With a cool pink light before the heat of the day
The royal sun so sweet to the skin
And the cool caressing winds soothing our gentle senses

When i realize it was a dream
I wished i never woke up

'cos i live in a cursed dark cemetery
A place so desolate with only dried leaves as bed
With a thick black soke rising sadly into the sky
All biosphere is filled with cries and screams
A tract of night filled with dust-ladened star
Where dark downpour comes hurrying down
And the wicked winds slashing deep through the skin
With the heated sn scorchingly and fiercely
Burning the remains of our flesh from famine

Oh what an evil world is this
One ladened with all the cruelty of nature
