Ojeikpo Elijah Poems

Tell me because I am from North
Tell me because I am from South
Either East or West
We are one
...

In this vast world, we roam alone,
No caring heart, no welcoming home,
But deep inside, we all know,
We need each other, to help us grow.
...

In twilight's hush, as day begins to rise,
I seek communion, where my spirit lies,
A morning prayer, a heartfelt plea I raise,
To greet the dawn with songs of grateful praise.
...

In the realm of human existence, an ode unfolds,
A tale of life's journey, where time takes its hold.
From birth's tender dawn to the twilight's gentle sigh,
A cycle eternal, where beginnings meet the sky.
...

We're in this together, hand in hand,
Through stormy seas and calm,
We'll stay strong,
For together, we can conquer any land.
...

Happy birthday, Reyar Sawor
A day of love and more
A day to celebrate your birth
A day to honor all your worth
...

Hold on, my dear, never give up,
For change is on the way, don't you give up,
When the going gets tough, just hold on tight,
And keep moving forward with all your might.
...

Forgiving is the seed that we must sow,
It's the key to peace, let no grudges grow to reap.
For holding onto hate and anger inside,
Will only lead to more pain and divide.
...

Let me boast a little, if you will
For I have tales that'll give you a thrill,
But do not take me for a fool
For I have a clever mind, so cool.
...

Over the river,
When the water wouldn't stretch her tempest's hands,
A solemn dirge won't plays,
Neither whispers of sorrow and echoes of pain will be hear.
...
