Rabo Sanusi Poems

Have never faced challenge so gross
Once was a thing to rejoice
But after experiencing the hardship
Presented to me by the outside world...
...

The hall soars in silence
Even the wall stares at me
My colleagues looking all excited
As they expect to hear a poem from me
...

If I was light
I will illuminate the path of the blind
If I was destiny
I will close the pages of the greedy
...

Wish I could tune the clock of future
Would have emerged on my page of stardom
When the whole world applaud my poetic genuity
When my face is remembered like the currency
...

A thousand stars cannot compare with the sparkle in your eyes...
A thousand poets cannot write the romantic words in my heart
A thousand damsel cannot match your beaut
A thousand words are not enough to describe my feelings for you
...

As I lay watching the dark clouds
Wondering where to put my head
Yet, can’t seem to rest my eyes
But aloud she sleeps
...

With tears in my eyes
Fire in my heart
Chaos in my brain…
Coz of the thought of my beloved in another’s warmth
...

My world used to be full of roses
Joy was my guiding angel
My friends whom are my strongest defence
The once whose friendship
...

What am i going to write about?
as i seat on my craggy chair
with my pen firmly placed around my hands
my scanty table filled with papers
...

Great Nigeria my motherland,
with unpatriotic and undedicated citizens...
where corruption is the order of the day
oh! My wonderful nation
...
