Abdulrasheed Dawodu Poems

A walk through the night
Before it gives birth to her own day
Just the night
Just me in the night
...

I dwell in a garden, so green
With colourful roses
In full bloom
Oh! These weeds!
...

Mine is a curious heart
And what does it crave?
Tranquility it is yet to find
For how long can it wait?
...

Living in diaspora
Alone away from home
Living in the land of oaks and timbers
Avarice; their worthy religion
...

Looking at you with a smile
How can you be best qualified
Angel or goddess-like
In confusion I lie
...

Here I stand
Just outside your well guarded heart
Heavily fenced like a palisade
Hard to penetrate
...

My brain
A home of countless ideas
My mind
A house of thousand thoughts
...

O spirit
Scepter, subjects stumble for
The immortal who dies
God knows when
...

Just when I was; depressed,
Overwhelmed with solitude,
Suppressed by loneliness
And engulfed by the claws of boredom
...

The clouds are gathering
Rumbling sound
Thunderous clap
Heavy wind blowing
...

If you were still in shackles
Of the old era of slavery
With whips and rods
Drawing map leading more into slavery
...

If friends were foes
And foes were friends
Would my foes' foes
Be my foes?
...

A rat; an animal larger than a mouse
With large ears and pointed snout
A dangerous one
It lives in human habitation
...

When allies degenerate into foes, then
The heart evicts her denizen

When the voice becomes a litany
...

Meseems the street looks deserted today
Quotha! And what do I see
A young boy? Younger than the rest?
Oh! They were just like him.
...

The dawn crawls in
With a growing antipathy
I await the announcement
Of your death
...

Succour succour
She screams
Higher and higher
Hoping it would reach farther
...

I live on earth
I hear love is in the air
I look up to catch some breath
What I inhale is flare
...

From afar
I hear your buzzing
I draw closer
Befuddled by what it would be
...

I have no idea what this time tells
I have no clue what this world says
I have no knowledge what it entails
And It's like everything's gone with time
...

The Best Poem Of Abdulrasheed Dawodu

A Perfect Night

A walk through the night
Before it gives birth to her own day
Just the night
Just me in the night
And few stars adorning her in her darkness.

My thoughts run far and wide
Shall I live alone in this lonely night?
My heart craves for a company.
And in the night I see light.
A full moon.
With a beautiful shining face in the darkness.

How shall I describe thee? .
One of a kind.
Seen once in a blue moon.
Wonderfully made.
A knight in the night.
Even birds serenade thee.
Exalted is your smile.
That lights up a weary mind.

I'm never alone again in the night.
Is this how it feels to be in d-light?
A night every day wants to be her.
A perfect night.
I imagine
