Nigeria In My Mind Poem by Alade Abayomi Idris

Nigeria In My Mind

Rating: 1.3


Nigeria, my loving nation
My land and home
My resting place when the sun cease to be
How can i ameliorate thee
For me and my people sake
That i will pathfind a path
Consanguinity never corrupt
I am on sit
Cogitating again
For idea that cannot be be pulverize
By corruption like the afore.

Nigeria, my country
The black land for my black skin
How can i make thy
dead light shine brighter again
How can i lift you up
When the weight of corruption
Has immerse you deep into the crust
To make myself and the people happy
Together with the fallen heroes
That cacophonous cries
Wary wails
The land burn their carcasses
Little room turns inferno
Your anointed children
Brought drought that makes
Marsh lost its relic power
And desert plaque the living and the dead.

Oh my great nation
Nigeria, my home
The land given to me by my pangous father
I am still cogitating on thy amelioration.
