Babatunde Aremu Poems

We professed divine mandate
We speak for the Most High
God's mind is our minds
We are adept in memorising verses
...

She is a beauty to behold
Like a masquerade on display
She is wrapped with attractive garment
Her Arabian perfume oozes out ceaselessly
...

Misty fog convulsed in the sky.
All land is coloured red
Given birth by hatred.
Innocent carcases littered the streets
...

Nigeria,
Giant of the blackworld
Created as a trigger
For the development of Africa.
...

Whistling foggy wind blows
From the sahara desert in Africa
Across the savannah grassland
Deep down into the tropical rain forests
...

Live a simple life
Devoid of stress, rancour,
Anger, quarrel and bad blood
...

This age of a thing
Full of wisdom and experience
Year after year,
Day after day
...

I once stood alone
Abandoned by the rest
The world stayed apart
I was rejected
...

The cloud is thick and misty
Not that the rain is about falling
Its an omnious cloud
Its a terrible thick cloud
...

These streets are well laid
The edifices are glamorous
Their roofs symbolize opulence
The flowers are well-fed
...
