That Path Poem by Damilola Ogundipe

you are that path; the road i found...
the strange surreal path...
...are you just a rythm of fate,
Just a stroke of luck...
...or maybe a resounding ill-luck? ?
the sweetening smell of the tulips adorn you
The brightness of sun is second to yours...
singing birds fret at the sound of your melodious voice
The rythmic lullaby of your snores while u sleep
The hive of stars that swarm around you like bees
The lillys that guard you as though dey were in a millitary parade
Yet you are a path not like every other;
A path that snatched my gaze and owned it
...and i wake to the dawn of a sad reality:
That for me, you remain the path i lld wink at
Always for me; the road not taken.
