The Dangling Poet Poem by mohamed Alpha Ba

If they asked for my name
Say nothing
But………..
Mohamed bah the dangling poet

If they ask for more and
My words becomes sweeter than cherries
With rhyme scheme beautiful than bed of roses
Then say I am a poet of passion

But…………..
Surely if the rains fall,
The sun duely rise and
The hamantan wind consistently blows
Then say I am a poet of seasons
Full of nature and it uncountable reasons

But………………….
If my heart beats not as blood
And my soul not as body but as feelings
Say I am the romantic poet
That lives in your eyes
Not as dream but as sight
And if they ask for more
Under lightnings of the luxury moon
You and me alone in the bedroom
And I trek in your mind
Not as ideas but as memories
Then say I am a poet of undoubted love

But…………..
When they ask again
Tell them again, that
I am the dangling poet
Over sea and land
That flies like birds over
Hills and valleys
