Best Benefit Poems

Look at me, I am a kite
Clasp me firmly, but not too tight
My rainbow trail flickers among the light
Patterns of colour soar, swirling so bright
Amidst the howls of childish delight.

Air on a G-string is making me jive
The grace I hold as I flutter and dive
A...

Little by little
Bodies of water start to trickle
Because of there being no drizzle
And the sun continuing to sizzle

Droughts
Making it difficult for plants to sprout

Give others the benefit of the doubt
And next thing you know they want to take you out


Good riddance
Forget those that just want...

Any government economic project 
Should involve cost-benefit analysis
Before implementation.

Calculation of cost must involve 
Market survey cost, establishment cost, labor cost
Production cost, marketing cost and so forth.

Calculation of benefit must include
Financial benefit, social benefit
Political benefit and so on.

The governments should take into account
Whether there is skilled...

Mutual Benefit

Petting doggy
Canines enjoy it
What do we get from it?...

Covey of nuns
without benefit of wimple

graciously attired 
sport coat, turtleneck, skirt

scurry through the airport
iPads swinging

unaware the turtleneck 
is their Roman collar.

(Spring) The Benefit Of Wasps

Spring is Fridays
nine O'clock gulump 
of cool beer 

fresh blue jeans 
promises of pleasure, .

buds on a twig 
trembling soft air – 

first touch of loves
fingertip on flesh. 

torture of anticipation 
ecstasy and hum 

diamond green 
and magic moonlight 
painting on...

Reaping the Benefit

The midday sun blazed on the field
Where parched crops refused to yield
A barren sprawl that awaits cool rain
To yet again produce the grain

Trespassing a way upon this land
A shrewd eyed man, detector in hand 
And knapsack wobbling on his back
As yet no find...

We’re not a perfect match but that's OK
Shall we be friends and share this cosy space?
We’ll hang around together, eat and play
Although I'm not of noble equine race

Shall we be friends and share this cosy space?
I’ll scratch your back if you will nuzzle mine,
Although I'm...

compromise without benefit
we have been toiled upon
suppressed by the system
brutalities by the authorities
tortured by the men on black kaki
our words dont count 
our opinion is heard 
but overuled
we are the scares of poverty
yet the skies remains 
the beginning of our limits

compromise without benefit
we have been...

Tell mother and father
Mountains are not like us
We've grew knowing Makoko
We've tasted The heat of Ajegunle
And the sun at Akala skylines.
We have visited Bayelsa watching 
Children thrown into oceans and returned
 back to their papa' palms. 
Do they still find benefit in us?
Do they still...

Encouragement through word or deed
Can brighten up a gloomy day
Or motivate a flagging heart
To be determined and succeed.

The giver and receiver find
A closeness through their warm exchange
Which lifts the spirit's mood and brings
A shared, uplifted state of mind.

It may be just a simple smile,
A letter...

It is to man to invest where they sees they'll benefit
And that's why when we sow seeds we hope they'll grow
Cause there must be something of value at the end of it
If not then why the need for all this to make it grow 

And...

Sandstone erode into dust harks history's fade
Effected by events, weathered
Crept century torture administers eventual taint
Withered time drives incessant 

Battered slate roof removed promotes damage 
Cold rain and blazing sun hurt
Cyprus seeds challenge infertile dust, establish 
Passage through gathered dirt

Co dependent pieces redefine a weary structure
Fed...
