Joshua Akinwande Poems

Gold is precious,
I am more precious
Gold is valuable,
I am more valuable
...

I have discovered the importance of communication manure,

In the garden of life where the seeds of love and friendship are sown.
...

Clemency for me!
Really worthy of it? I don’t think so
After all I have done
You put them all behind you
...

I live the day to dream the night
As I dream the night to live the day
I work the day to rest the night
As I rest the night to work the day
...

Three values seek I in my jewel,

It must be true and pure with -in,
...

Nobody decides the continent he comes from,
No one influences the nation he belongs,
No child ever choose his or her own family,
All happened by fate, or rather a divine arrangement,
...

(Dedicated to Oluyemisi Janet Akinwande)

God empowered you mother to be a channel
Through which I found my way from heaven to earth
...

Have you ever imagined the world we live without women?
It's like a lung without some oxygen, agonizing and inevitably dead,
A face never with a smile, boring and unfriendly.
A cup of tea without some grains of sugar, bitter and foul,
...

Oh beautiful Sunday morning,

Glad to meet you oh beautiful Sunday morning,
...

I will call you names
Names like admirable, adorable, alluring
angelic, appealing, beauteous
delicate, graceful, fascinating
...
