Nigeria My Nation Poem by Abdullahi Nashe

Nigeria My Nation



Nigeria My Nation

I am a poet
That write when tweaked
Or happy I write so quickly
For within a minute

When asked to write
For my country so huge
I look at the sky
Grasses and trees
Hills with the bees
Flowers so full
That smell I scented

The gold and zinc
Silver no ditch
Petroleum profuse
Cocoa and wheat
Barley all rich

Ogun, Osun Rivers all known
With lake of Chad
Victoria Island
Of Lagos so unique

North and South
With west and east
Culture diverse
But together all we stand

I stood confused
For a while so still
Nothing to depict
For its heaven on earth
My Nigeria, My bliss, My Nation
