ANTHONY ANIGBATA Poems
We are the people, the people of Africa
We are black and proud
We are mighty and strong
We are the giants in the green Sahara;
...
dark clouds cover the blue sky
angry wind wangle so wild
men and women dart here and there
like running from a wild beast
...
The bells I hear ringing
The yells so near to us
A year’s heading to the dust
Flowers filling the empty floors
...
O, see how, many years can make a man,
A very strong man now a weakling
A handsome lad, now a clownish looking fellow.
His coiled black hair now grey like the sky
...
WE HAVE GONE TO SCHOOL
We have gone to school
Took the tough path with bravery
...
THE WIND SAILED BY YESTERDAY
The wind sailed by yesterday
At twilight ere the night
...
Worry not always you being
Worry not of tomorrow and future things
Worry not of what you cannot change
But plan to face them as they come.
...
Nothing is easy to start at first
But we all just need to start a thing
Burn our past and move ahead
To new things we dream and want.
...
I WANT TO SAY I LOVE YOU
I want to say I love you
Before someone else say so
...
SHE SANG TO ME AN EVENING LOVESONG
She sang to me an evening love song
Telling me of her love for a gentleman
...
A COUNTRYS' NEW ANTHEM
Know someone
If you wish to be rich and mighty in this land
...
A SONG FROM HOME
(to Fela Kuti, Oliver D'corke, Sir Warrior,
Chief Osita Osadebe and our Africa legends of music)
...
THE BANISHED
Sent out of my fathers' land
I shall not return home, where their plinth stand.
...
CRY NOT BLACK AFRICA
Cry not black Africa, cry not for your sons
Stolen along the swords,
...
SUFFERING AND SMILING
Suffering and smiling when will it end?
Our torments by these tyrants
...
INCANTATIONS
He cast to the earth cowries
In blue, green and yellow colours
...

The Best Poem Of ANTHONY ANIGBATA
We Are The People, The People Of Africa.
We are the people, the people of Africa
We are black and proud
We are mighty and strong
We are the giants in the green Sahara;
We are the people, the people of Africa
We have been tested by the sun
Yet our skin still tough
Like the Kilimanjaro mountain;
We are the heirs of a daring hunter
We are the people, the people of Africa
The black men and women
The black kids, who are kind
The shepherds on the sun scotched soil;
We are the people, the people of Africa
Tell the world we are here
Tell the world long we will stay
Tell the world here belong to us;
For we are the people, the people of Africa
The natives of a patterned land
The heirs of a great ancestry
The descendant of a daring warrior;
We are the people, the people of Africa.
Call us this-
The great giants in the ancestral savannah
Call us the dwellers, where the tall mountains
Challenge the blue sky
For we are the people, the people of Africa
