Afolabi Muideen Poet Free verse

My Way

I want to spend all my day
ln the library
And little time on writing
I want to do no work,
But read and write
I want to read states
Libraries
And left untouched nations
I want to be the book
That people read

I want to be a gifted writer
That writes for nations
And continents
I want to be Shakespeare
And Soyinka
I want my write
To travel a farther 
land
To where I, the writer
Could never land
I want to live
When I exist none
And stay in people's mind
Telling right and wrong
Giving pleasure and educate
