Frank Adie Poems

My smile is my charm
It makes raging nerves calm
It can quell the fiercest anger
And subdue an unfriendly stranger.
...

You are the diamond in my sky
The bright smile that illuminates my world
The reason I work with my shoulders high
A friend that gives me a reason to be glad.
...

We are all captives of this book,
This addictive called facebook.
We are fellow inmates within its walls,
We are all prisoners, we are Zucker's thralls.
...

Na-wao! is an ambiguous exclamation
That really deserves our recognition

It is not found in the English dictionary
...

Date of birth,
Date of death,
One we know;
The other we know not.
...

Gloomy faces of doomed men
Of all colour and creed
On board a single train.
Their destination and fate is even
...

I can stalk a man for a hundred years,
Until I bring him to his abrupt end,
I am a sure nemesis of all flesh,
And I must defeat man at some point.
...

Death comes stealthily
This is man's abrupt end
Breath gives way to eternal sleep
Bodies lay cold in a lifeless heap
...

If being rich is having more than you need,
Then what is greed?
If greed is an overwhelming desire for more,
Then what pushes one to become rich?
...

I cannot deny my own blood,
For the sake of having a husband,
Those who think I am a disadvantaged woman,
Must know that I am not a woman for every man.
...
