Best Excellence Poems

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
But only elegant people can have beauty in their eyes
Only great people can compliment another
And bad ones see with eyes that is sly
Trying to judge using their own ways on others
Seeing not any compliment no matter how you...

"When The Snow Melts", 
When "Spring Is In The Air"
When "Tears Of The Sky" shower blessings
When"Zephyr's Silky Tendrils" caresses us
When "A Nightingale Sings Of Dawn's Glory"
When basking in "Sunset Silence"
When "Night Sky's Party" is splendid...

We thank our "Saviour"
for the"The Luxury Of Breathing"
for "Bottomless Love"

Days of learning,
Teachers of value and kindness,
The language foreign and then familiar,
English, a refined mode of learning,
That leads to higher education,
Favorite teachers that mentored comprehension,
Crests and awards to recognize achievement,
The blessing to be there with friends,
Choirs and drama,
Sports and athletics,
Normal progression,
With some exemplary results,
Humble fashions...

If you hope to be one of means and property,
And to be perceived as truly ‘one of a kind’, 
Never tolerate or accept mediocrity.

Develop, while young, this fine quality.
Reaffirm it daily in your mind.
If you hope to be one of means and property.

Over-acheivers are definitely...

Part of the denominator, 
extraordinary matters level off 
and find the lowest trough. 
The so-called experts 
joust with the pretenders, 
and they are wrestling still. 

In days of yore the Seer 
would proclaim the truth, 
accepted by the old, the youth, 
whereas for now we...

Alphanumeric emergency is her agency of supremacy,
press your neck with a kiss ment for carniverous kinesthetics,
move you into a position of requisition, repitition aphyxiated with joy,

she can always be found on the border of banishment and bedlam,
bedevil you between hesitation & aggression, hug you inbetween...

In a pursuit of excellence
All the effort, no violence
Not an endless, bourgeois voyage
Have all the possible courage

Need not be a total silence 
In a pursuit of excellence
When serenity knows no bounds
Tranquillity always rebounds  

It's a hard work, not at random
With knowledge and faith in...

Here stands a fair beauty 
Queen with poise and 
Dignity.
The daughter of an 
Erudite,an erudite herself
One of the three central 
Spoke-persons in the 
Assembly of law-givers.
The defender of the 
Helpless,mother of the 
Motherless. As fearless as 
A lion,who dared the 
Gunners in power,time 
Had she...

I seldom indulge in letter writing 
Because I consider it 
To be a cold and illusory 
Means of communication. 
I will only send someone a letter 
If I'm certain it's going to serve 
A definite functional purpose, 
Such as that which I'm 
Scrupulously concocting at...

I think you are a writer par excellence
Your prose and poetry are simply divine
With ebb and flow your phrases make sense,
With remarkable meter and exquisite rhyme.

Your prose and poetry are simply divine
You have a fine understanding of perfect tense,
With remarkable meter and exquisite rhyme
Enjoyable reading,...

Poet Identity

In conversations,
In biographies,
In resumes…all poets are writers,
    but not all writers are poets.
On a careful look into the mirror, when not looking
    for wrinkles, but staring deep into the reflected  
   Image as if it...

Note: "Arete": Pronounced [ ahr-i-tey ]

Sometimes our best efforts go unnoticed 
by everyone but ourselves.  
We strive mightily to succeed and accomplish 
something we think is important 
and of value to others 
that ultimately ends up in the proverbial wastelands  
of unseen and...

Mother


*yoruba edition*


'Better lose the saddle than the horse'.
Every mother's voice echo these 7 words 
To her child, not just out of love, 
Not entirely for love but for joy.
The joy of motherhood. 

This life will be hard for you 
Omo mi, sugbon yio dara fun...

Revolutionary insight excelled
for forty days and forty nights.
Noah discovered what rain was;
Moses received God’s ten laws twice.
Josh and Caleb searched out the land;
Jesus triumphed o'er Satan's tests.
Goliath’s grand boasting accrued;
Elijah travelled in anguish.
