Korede Abiodun Poems

The sweet gods of the time and place,
This is my race across an age.
I leave these faces and my race
To an unknown land in relunctant pace.
...

You keep the dreams and I would stay awake.
Oh dear, embrace the day and I the night.
Flow forever and I would be a lake
In a dark nook. Be flooded with your light.
...

Precisely from the beginning of time
To the end of time.
From the Sunrise
To its set.
...

Labourer: O, Good Sir
The season favours and cloud gathers
I can tell, hell about to loose
And do us good.
...

Every cloud has a tale to tell
The church bell
The death of the Priest
The hour glass
...

Storm in your lonesome heart and you might just cry
Tears as the rain-drops escaped just so you might cry

Mask and smile
...

When love comes along
When you find your heart
Only to refuse the urge to run
And then you got your heart broken
...

I loved
Yes I know
I loved
Oh, no
...

I remember holding you
Just last september
We shadowed the earth
And watched the sun fade
...

Run, run, baby runaway, my charm don't fail;
Take to your heels,
I'm that tick-time bomb on self destruct;
Do not ask for promises, that I stop keeping and making.
...
