Adegbite Adeyinka Poems

Place your soothing lips on mine tenderly;
Time and time again, till sleep falls on me
I feel this peace in the depth of my spirit
It's the way it comes whene'er I am with you
...

Turn the sand until its soft,
Drop your seedling down into the earth
Gently cover it back with more sand
Water it from time to time,
...

Hear, hear, as I say this again
One day when I die,
That day may be sooner or later
One day when I die,
...

Grace and elegance wrapped in fabrics,
Soft beating heart, little hands so fragile;
Beautiful angel, now you have come
Through, into our delicate loving souls;
...

I see the curves that adorn your smiling face
And the way your eyes bat when you call my name
The sweet savour of your endearing grace
I desire your love than wealth and fame
...

I hum your name and bob my head,
It's a genre like none I have heard;
Soothing, easy and pleasing to sing
Like the lyrics of a memorable song;
...

To a luminous star in the heavens
My soul's only one of the havens
I crave you glow every time to see
Be it or not the hours are wee
...

Every time my phone beeped
Precious texts, like wine, I sipped
Your wishes and prayers
Your unflinching love stockpiled in layers;
...

Weep not, child
Life will tend you mild
Albeit, ill, I lie
Wipe dry your teary eye.
...

Choice, a scale that tilts
Could leave you smile or guilts
Someday you'll make it
But hope it will make fit
...
