Adeola Poem by Alade Abayomi Idris

Let me sing song my heart composes
With dance-steps that are heavenly.
The song is of love and sweetness
Your tenderness and care
Sit for one and listen to song my heart composes
As my lips render it in this glorious hour
That moon sits in company of its moonlets
And the wind blows its best.

The slow song starts with how we met
On feet filled road of Igando
To the dreams to birth in shortness of time
And ends with lonesome remembrance of our field-plays
In deep sleep on our different beds.

Let me sing song my heart composes
With dance-steps that are heavenly
With all sincerity and affections
Bravery and courage
In the face of intimidations
Of power staggering Kings and Lords of the earth that they may know
My love for you rises with the sun and continues with the moon in verse-like order.
