Of The Act Poem by Edward Kofi Louis

Of The Act

Rating: 5.0


A tenant impregnates a lanlord's daughter,
Of the act which has now brought them together to marry;
Living in the same house today,
But, the garden of my love is flowing with milk and honey.

The muse of life and the muse of love,
You are a gentle and delicate woman in the neighbourhood;
But, the young man came and took your viginity away!
All in the name of premarital sex.

The muse of life and the muse of love,
The lights were very dim on you people;
But, today, you call yourselves husband and wife,
Because of the pregnancy that came out from your act.

Silence in heaven!
And a noise was heard in hell;
Like the muse of the river that flows along,
However, you are callled husband and wife today.
