samuel nze Poems

Why should I worry my head
Trying to impress Ugonna?
I am sick of it!
...

She lied and died,
Ananias's wife fell
At Peter's feet by
The command of God.
...

I am thinking of you
Today
Yesterday
Tomorrow
...

I think of my Africa
Black woman of mettle
Sitting like a forlorn work-woman
On the slimy green.
...

Mosquitoes have endured long
Biting people
The same old story of
Insects causing plasmodium
...

Better make it our world
Where no one lords the other
We parley and combine brawn
You refuse to outwit me
...

Logic of sorts does not it explain
From pride and calumny though we stay
God alone must all the time attain
Our deepest affections when we pray
...

The first day of our week
Is my birthday
Do not make it bleak
That is all I pray.
...

The dawn is welcome
After black long hours
Our eyes shut
We saw only dreams.
...

The road to my house is bad
But men who live there are good
A good man is a rich one
It is so they say
...
