My Journey To the Poem City
MY JOURNEY TO THE POEM CITY!
………………… WHY I QUIT SINGING
FOR POETRY!!
I HAVE LOVED THE PEN FOR LONG!!
EVEN THOSE DAYS; WHEN YOUNG!!
IT ALL STARTED BY MY TONGUE!!
THAT LOVES COMPOSING SONGS.
I HAVE IMPRESSED, BOTH OLD AND
YOUNG!
WITH, ALL MY WRITTEN SONGS.
BUT, MY GROWTH IN MUSIC!
WAS STOPPED, BY SHY PHYSIQUE!
I KNEW; I WASN’T BOLD!
COS FACING CROWD; I WOULD
RUN COLD!
BUT I SAID; MY THOUGHTS WONT
BE SOLD!
SO, I WROTE ON, BUT KEPT THEM
IN FOLDS.
ONE POETRY MANUAL CAME AS
GIFT!
WHICH, GAVE ME AN UPLIFT!
I TRIED REMOLDING SONGS!!
BUT WASN’T EASY; FOR TIME
LONG!!
‘’JUNGLE JUSTICE’’ WAS THE POEM,
THAT LED ME INTO THIS PATH!
WHILE ‘’ABIKU’’ WAS MY FIRST,
THAT I TRIED, FROM THIS IMPACT!
WRITING TO ME, IS NOW FUN!
COS ON ANY SUBJECT; I SHINE LIKE
SUN!
WORD SELECTION; IS MY RUN!
COS FROM SONG; I WAS BORN!
