A New Friend Poem by Kolawole Emmanuel

I meet a new friend

It is an holidays, I leave to go to my city Lagos
From offa. A place in Kwarra state

On way going back, suddenly the transport car broked down
In a place where food and water are not match..
It evening it getting dark' no food, no water. And nothing to touch.

The pang of hunger drove me from there
With no idea where to go
I traveled for a miles
Until I reach a village

Knocking on the nearest door
Saying out some clumsy words

Wow The owner was a beautiful young girl! !
She quickly understand my need
Her warmth blow away my shame
We play and sing till the sunset again
The wine cup often filled
With the pleasure of new
Am glad I meet a new friend

Her name is Àjóke' The daughter of the late king of the village
