Enikanoselu Seyi Poems

Night I thank you,
For saving me from the laborious day,
For releasing me from the captivity of the sun,
For protecting me from matilda of the rain.
...

I was born like I see, an imbecile,
I agreed within me,
I took to my fate,
I received pleasure and prestige,

We all see its smokes,
When I say fire burns on the river,
You all bother me with queries,

This moment of annual dinner,
Did I dine with terror,
Did I wine with horror,
...

Mr. paper wrote yesterday,
Won pen award today,
And will want to write tomorrow
For more profit,
...

In those days I remember,
We, I with my other friends,
After the closing bell jingles,
Would run to our various houses,
...
