Best Bring Back Poems

Who would I bring back, if I had only one
Perhaps a great leader, Kennedy or Lincoln

Or I could choose a musical icon
Such as John Lennon or Michael Jackson

Maybe a legend of the silver screen
Maybe Marilyn Monroe or James Dean

All gifts to the world, but the...

No Scars
No more wars
No soldiers
Let the battle fields be
Garden of flowers

haven’t we cried enough
how many have we lost? 
Fathers, sons, Mothers, daughters
The toll mounts
We kept scoring,
Never cared to keep count! 

We try to bury the unknowns story
Chernobyl, Bhopal, kansat, 
we cover ourselves in, fame, glory
aren’t...

I can still remember years ago in the 80's
When the pubs were packed
You'd pay for your beer with Ten pounds and get change back
You could keep a girlfriend for more than two minutes
And knew their name
Shame today men and women are not the same.

The music...

Morning comes with downpour of dazzling dew
That sits on leaves of grass, petals of the flower
And with splendour and glory stains them anew.
Beauty of Eternal image shrinks into finite Hour.

The cruel ray of Sun quivers the grass, the leaves
And the dews suddenly vaporize and flutter...

Bring Back Our Girls!!
To their mothers and fathers,
to their sisters, and brothers.
We know ONE escaped you,
but we want ALL the others!

Bring Back Our Girls!!
To the people who LOVE them!
To the people who NEED them!
The ones who pray for them EVERY night,
and wake up praying that...

Bring back our corruption to us, it is 
better than the righteousness we see now.
Situation here has turn sour and bitter,  
Dollar rising, Naira falling, Poor men vomit
venom whilst the Rich craze all over the
street for food to feed their troubled stomach.  
And...

If I could breathe back life into one
Archimedes would have to be the one
And not just for fun.

Inventors to fill a need is what we need
Not ones that serve no need except greed.

Archimedes once re-acclimatised could yet fit the bill
If we give him a pill...

Find me in classrooms
Frantic page flipping in search of 
the tools
Who'll one day equip me
So I can make rules
Find me at the helm
Bare-foot and big bellied
Home-makers to boardrooms 
....And woman tells you what to 
do

Stereoptype make me those 
types
Opposing sex finds it perplexed
A timid female's...

She bares a striking 
resemblance to early morning 
mist
Pure and innocent her scent 
reflects on the faces of those 
who devour the finest incense
She has
Coloured the world with her 
smile
Captured our souls for a while 
The birthmark she carries looks 
so much like mine
Bring back...

Bring back the astute listeners
to old rooms with fireplace smoke.
Ears open and widening hope
Big ideas going for broke.

Bring back the wise travelers
with their wild gestures and bright eyes
Hearts scarred and penetrating scope
Stories flowing strewn with lies.

Bring back the faithful apprentice
with their youth and much to...

they are innocent and gentle
going about their normal life in their 
school
kidnapped and deprived of their 
fundamental human rights 
so inhuman and barbaric
still causing panic
over 200 of them were kidnapped
ever since then nobody can even take a 
nap
taking to the streets and chanting... 
"Bring Back...

Every tear I ever cried, was if we were not okay
And sorry love I promise to try is all you needed to say
I promise that I won’t hurt you again, was all I wanted to hear
And only those few words coming from you, would wipe...

 Could someone bring back,
 My innocent childhood days?
 Even today on roadside,
 I break stones with hammer,
 In the scorching sun.

 I also wish to swing,
 In the mango orchard,
 And run after,
 The colorful butterflies

 I also wish to enjoy,
 The dazzling...

I looked through the photograph album.
I scanned through the pictures from my last trip to Maryland.
I came across the last pictures ever taken of my grandfather.
I then found a set of pictures that had been taken at his funeral.
I sprawled out on the floor, and...
