Chukwuebuka Adebayo Poems

Dont cry, mama!
I feel the pain than you,
Stand to your knees, papa!
Ices are melting in my veins too
...

She'll run round when she is crazy
She'll sigh and cry just like a lady
If she get up to where she cant jump down
...

Life is a poem,
Full of diverse rhythm;
With odds and rigid verses,
Lines written of restated stanzas;
...

I have told you and again will I say
My love is Wedded, Nothing can part
Glued as sun to the sky, no waves can flay
Mounted as rockstone, no many fast waters can thwart.
...

Come not here, Not there- -O adulteress!
Do warlord fights when laid therein grave?
Rove away, Rove away, beauty of slyness,
O preying death, Give me no seductive wave;
...

His arms are large hills,
His legs are turning elephants;
He goes before the morning sun
He's known by every faces living here.
...

Mama is getting old
I need not to be told
the world is fading shame
I fear to tarnish my name
...

I've seen an antelope searching for okra,
He is like man toiling to succeed with his valour;
Weepings of oppress`d flows as runnels,
And no comforters to be their channels;
...

Count your wealth, plentitude of gold,
The crystals of the sea, weigh your jaspers;
The goldsmiths refines them, if they are old,
Buy it from menfolks that sells topaz;
...

I wish I could fly,
Fly, up, up, up and away
In that warm and unstill sky
Like that strong eagle, so gay.
...
