Precious Okidika Poems

Listen to these plea,
Dearest friends and forgive.
All your trust you gave to me,
I have a moment smashed.
...

A man has his lot to thank
When he has one to love.
Love is a handsome distraction,
From irksome matters of the heart,
...

Do you not remember me brother?
Does your memory live so short,
Or my face so changed, you do not recall?
Think brother, think!
...

I know you will think of me,
But in what sense, i dare not think.
For you, most folly had been my choice.
Perhaps, you will laugh when you think of this
...

I searched his eyes in the briefest of moments,
I looked in places no one did,
And saw the emptiness of his soul.
...

I am not a man of many women

Neither am i a man of few.
...

Ponder upon this,
oh friend!
The world is turned upside down,
And life is broken
...

The chantress that chants
That chants upon the hills
The encantations of songs Is stand again in the midst of its sound.
...

Upon my heart she dancedupon
A simple rhythm in simple steps
with the grace and passion of a queen.
from side to side she danced
...
