Abdulrasheed Dawodu Poems

It was this day
A shining star was conveyed
Into our world two months to May
Brighter than the sunshine's ray
...

In my search for the day.
I am lost in the night.
Darkness over takes my sight.
I'm blind to the dark night.
...

This journey of a thousand miles
Didn't start with a smile
Never give up
Nor retreat
...

Consumed by this emotion
Devoured by this affection
Engulfed in this addiction
Entangled in this feeling
...

In my eyes
Many are the things I wish
Little are the things I have
...

Pink is fine and cool
So is green and blue
Black is beautiful too
Wow! I never knew beauty so true
...

Mine is a lonely heart
And what does it crave?
A company it is yet to find
For how long can it wait?
...

Hail me! The day
Hail me! The night
I am the sun
That shines so bright
...

You hear a cry
A cry of thine
Your ears are stretched
Your eyes; in tears
...

Aye
Nay
So is my fate determined
Chiefs and chieftains
...
