My Sunny Friend Poem by Ejiro Okoro

Wake up dude, wake up dude! rang my talking alarm clock.
Up, off the bed I lumbered and into the bathroom
thinking, as I say my prayers
that this is going to be another day to hobble through.

Minutes later, with a frightening scowl on my face
I set on my way to face the day
slowly but surely I noticed someone on my east
following me through every turn I take
with a shiny smile on his face
as if to say you are not alone, I am here for you
aha! I cried aloud, my friend there you are
beaming, blasting all my clouds away
