Ezekiel Nketani Jr Poems

The violent rage of winds they blow
The tides are rising o'er and o'er
The eager sea is about a drinking
Captain! Captain! your ship is sinking
...

I heard a sound brake out from hell
The sound as of an iron bell
And when it reached my pensive ears
It woke the greatest of my fears
...

If i had to bid the world good-bye
To caress that aimless sky
Those heavenly treasures in my hold...
Be worth more than all the worlds gold
...

I used to sit at the wooden table
And watch the ashes of the sky
Wipe in reverence to enable...
The sun a glorious good-bye
...

The Best Poem Of Ezekiel Nketani Jr

The Death Of A Captain

The violent rage of winds they blow
The tides are rising o'er and o'er
The eager sea is about a drinking
Captain! Captain! your ship is sinking

And the captain kept on thinking

Captain! Captain! your soul's a wreck
You cannot stand out on the deck
And not here the squeaking floor
Of this wretched ship i know

And the captain kept on thinking

Captain! let me save your ship
Before it shelters in the deep
Captain! Captain! if you will
Let me take the wheel

And the captain kept on thinking

Captain! you must hear me say
That you may do what e, er you may
The eager sea is about a drinking
Captain! Captain! your ship is sinking

And the captain kept on thinking.
