samuel nze Poems

On the day my father died
i should have been laughing
it was April fools
but the joke was too dear
...

Only love counts
Honesty may prove valuable
Build trust
Make me believe all you say
...

Dusk has arrived,
Cover for my game;
Vehemence is swifter,
It will be tonight.
...

A man should have respect
His case may not accord him that,
Nor his situation
Yet he must feel self worth.
...

What exactly is faith?
Faith is like talking first
And paying attention later;
You assert what you don't see
...

You want to succeed
But care less about the success
Of others
Watch it!
...

Feel me talk proud
Hear me talk loud
Of Africa, the black land
The Sahel and the sand
...

I have a life
I have a family
I have myself
And I have a God.
...

Rich and poor people
Have the same trouble
The former from overeating
The latter from swelting
...

This is a black country,
Many souls are black with the soil;
Their soles march the dust
But their hearts are even dustier.
...
