Our convergent joint
The rallying point
Mecca to the Pastors and Sisters
Jerusalem to the “Alhajas and Alfas”
Refuge to the weak
Shield to the strong
Nowhere on campus like our building
Life made more lively
Added life to the lifeless
Ever enliven to light up a dead soul
Restore spirit to the soulless body
Nowhere on campus like our
World Trade Centre
Goods and services are synchronized
Prizes are greatly subsidized
To augment sense of belonging to our belongings
No wonder, young and old ones throng in and out
For more copies of pieces of paper
Scrupulously they stay glued to
Modern screen for good job
Ours is the biggest edifice in Nigeria
Ours is the best in Africa
Ours is amongst the best in the world
Swimming pool completes the unparallel
Beautiful scenery that I behold every
Midnight that I lay my head on the
Cushion to cushion the tedious effect
Incurred in my sojourn on campus
Twenty four hours was for
Wisdom chicken and chips
A delicacy prepares with wisdom
Which often times leaves Couples off wisdom
As they whisper pouring out farrago of lies
Unto each others hearing
In a latter day hobo’s manner
Like a Romeo in the world of a Juliet
Savoring the dishes
Drinking all drinkable and all gulp-able
Browsing and dancing to the
Rhythm of Yahoo and “Aluta” gyration
Ours was unarguably the best
Our building clad a chamber
Where the Honourables meet
Where ideas and views are chewed
Where political and cerebral jaw jaw are cross fertilized
Where rhetoric and oratory seed are swallowed
Where we read and blessed with “8 points”
Where we digest skills to become splendid
Managers of human and material resources
Our library is incomparable in quantity and quality of materials
All these before they came
They came, they vandalized
They came, they destroyed
They came, they extorted
They came, they collected and replaced for man
Receipt of hopelessness and anguish
They came . . . killed the spirit
They came . . . gauged the soul
They came . . . stole the body
But . . .
Like the Son of Man
The spirit will rise again
Like an “Ayekoto” bird
The gauged soul will escape and fly away
Like the Biblical Zion
The stolen body will be returned
And restored for better glory.

It was the time when art was king,
Of artists whose praises we all sing.
Great minds there were in the Renaissance,
Through eons , unsurpassed, with little advance.
Greatness was embodied in the works of art,
In Lorenzo's gardens did Michelangelo start.
But great there was one of Mona Lisa fame,
Master painter, inventor - Leonardo his name.
Contemporaries for sure, one really wonders
Of the two, whose work steals the thunders.
David, the Pieta, Sistine Chapel, and more
Everlasting they are through ages sure.
But then there's the Lisa, Last Supper, inventions galore.
On their ingenuity and genius, the world lays great store.
Can genius be bestowed in multiple men?
Can peace and tranquility be shared even then?
Can two kings sit and reign on one throne?
Or squabble and fight like two dogs with one bone?
And so, these men of unparallel fame
Were set by chance a mischievous game.
Asked they were to adorn the Council Hall
With paintings to settle rankings once and for all.
With gusto did the two set about
A Battle each to prove their clout.
Leonardo chose the battle of Anghiari;
Battle of Cascina was Michelangelo's quarry.
Great was the strife between the two,
Each strove hard for the other to outdo.
Of the rivalry ,I heard, - the worst of all,
Art was the victim - and the two took a fall.
Relates the great chronicler Vasari,Giorgio,
That the nadir of art was seen in the Palazzo Vecchio
As each of the greats thought little of their craft
But dallied and diddled, till the populace all laughed.
The Cascina on naked bathing soldiers was based
On the banks of the Arno it was placed.
But the scene that was rendered was so ludicrous
That his work, sadly, bordered on the ridiculous.
Leonardo's Anghiari was a shade grim
But his chances to greatness was very slim.
He used oils from Pliny the Elder's recipe
But soon these flaked , were smudgy, and drippy.
Be that as it may
To Art's great dismay
What should have been great works
Were diminished by Rivalry's quirks.
Vasari painted over these objets de art
And replaced these with his own from the start.
Now conservators do scan, to see if they can,
Which of the two, Leonardo or Michelangelo, was
The painter of the elusive Magnum Opus.

The dainty day dawns on the sunburst flaming sky
The flotilla of golden wispy cloud glides slowly by
The spectrum of color on the azure sea they pour
Silver-lined swelling waves spill pearls on the shore.
Down the jade valley leaps the sparkling stream
Sculpts the rock ridge and serenades in daydream
Waltzing water ripples on polished pebbles rolling
Listens to the luring music of verdant plains calling.
The seasons revolve in kaleidoscopic sublime spell
Swathed with mesmeric charm of nature unparallel
The ember of autumn falls rustling on the meadow
From the winter frost buds bloom with surreal glow.
The sun in cyan sky shines on emerald forest canopy
Light and shade strips entwine the whispering trees
Night drizzles silently sprinkling stardust on thicket
Fireflies twinkle with the rhythmic chirp of cricket.
My spirit sails allured seeing nature’s spectacular show
In the supernal stream of joy enthralled emotions flow
The essence of the scenic gift of the creator I capture
Find it interlaced with the lattice of tapestry of nature.

Ours is not of the devil
Nor that of the Lucifer
Our red is not devilishly united
Less, we christened it the Red Devils
Here come the Red Warriors
Born in 1892 in Anfield
To Sir John Houlding
The Golden Red that walketh not alone
He it that dwells in the Anfield abode
Echoing in our memories
The 2001 treble that got them tremble
The 2005-Euro Hero
The unparallel 18 league titles
The Istanbul six minutes of madness
The penalty eviction of the Blues in Anfield
Oh! Red Heroes that thrives in Roses
Roses of love, strength amidst gut
And for life, we amplify
The Kopites says
Echoed by the Liverpudlians
“Never Walk Alone”.

My soul thirsts, O Lord
Where are you hiding?
Why can’t I find you?
I call your name
And silence reverberates
My tears flow like lava
Where are you? Lord?
Strength seems to fail
Even the wind is still
While the deep silence lingers
Yet, my hope lies in your promise…
Never to abandon me
So, I will wait in this silence
‘Til your voice I hear once more
Within this fragrant garden of solitude
At last, it is you! Only you will
Call to me, ‘Peace, be still;
‘For in the silence I’m with you, always…’
Now my soul rejoices in your presence
Overcome by unparallel beauty and peace
I recline at your feet, my Father…
I rest.

7th Place in "Song inspired Poems, Old or New"
Note: Inspired by “Adagio in G Minor”
By The London Promenade Orchestra. Listen to it
And you’ll find it’s one of the most beautiful pieces
Of music, ever…if you’re like me.. you’ll cry. I couldn’t find
Their rendition on YouTube but this is almost as good
Maybe better in some ways…it’s lengthier.
Enjoy : )

Oh, Cupid,
Winged son of Venus,
You,
God of immortal love,
Listen to my plea:
I beg you
Your sharpest arrows for me
To prepare
For
Your unparallel archery
On my
Aching for her love heart to practice.
Be
As accurate as never before,
I Implore you,
Oh, divine master of our hearts,
Because
I would certainly die at once,
If
Your target, you happen to
Miss!

Quintessence of radiance in the days of utter dark,
Unparallel among the guides, fairly upto the mark,
An advocate with plenteous, bounteous sincerity,
Invincible, feared neither wolf’s howl nor dog’s bark.
Decent in manners, humble and modest in being,
Efficacious in thinking, alert and vigilant in seeing,
Adhesive to the mission, incarnated embodied truth,
Zeal and zest packed rider on the steed galloping.
An aspiring figure, to the secured harbour he rowed
Majestically steering the lobbing ship, never bowed,
Malicious he was to none but clang to the just cause,
Undaunted he was and accomplished what he vowed.
Harmonious and integral he was in saying and deed,
Adroit and perfect guide he was in faith and creed,
Manly, steadfast, sagacious he was in his dealings,
Meticulous model he was on the hazy road to lead.
Adept he was who outwitted rivals with great skills,
Dignified who led safely through mounds and hills,
Admonished he the nation about the hidden traps,
Laudable whom pay homage, respect rivers and rills.
Incorruptible, whom from the hearts we all adore,
Jeopardizing his comforts, he brought us all ashore,
Indulgent, who never beguiled the trusting people,
Nullified he the opponents who succeeded no more.
Navigated, ransacked he the seas at an early age,
Apostle of faith, truth who broke the confining cage,
Humane, humble he was yet he won the homeland,
Muhammad Ali Jinnah written on history’s each page.

The day dawns on flaming sunburst sky,
gold-gilded wispy clouds glide slowly by,
spectrum of color on azure sea they pour,
silver lined waves spread pearls on shore.
Down the jade valley leaps the sparkling stream,
sculpturing rock ridge serenading in daydream,
dancing waters murmur on polished pebbles rolling,
listen to the distant music of verdant plains calling.
Seasons revolve in kaleidoscopic sublime spell,
draped in magnetic charm of nature unparallel.
The ember of autumn falls rustling on the meadow,
out of the winter frost buds bloom with surreal glow.
Sun from cyan sky shines on emerald forest canopy,
light and shade strips saunter by whispering tree.
Night falls silent sprinkling stardust on the thicket,
fireflies twinkle with the rhythmic chirp of cricket.
Supine spirit soars high with nature’s ethereal show,
on supernal stream of joy unbridled emotions flow.
The beautiful gift mankind received from the creator
floats on ripples of rapture on the tapestry of nature.

Her hair flashes by like rapid fire,
Yet filling me with so much desire.
Her beauty is yet so unparallel,
Such a sweet voice, it’s as if a bell.
Just thinking of her makes me smile,
I am left in a strange denial.
For how can I have scored such a girl,
Who brilliance surpasses that of a pearl.
To think just think of her I begin to daze,
For I cannot but to help to gaze.
Because it’s only her to have my heart,
And only for her, who with it I’ll part.
My thoughts are always turned to her,
And my love has reached such a high caliber.
To add, she is so marvelously unique,
And only for her love, do I seek.
Even though I may become weak,
The love I have for her, in my heart, I will always keep.
For she has always been so sweet,
And she is the one whom I wish to meet.
For with me she is so understanding,
Being always, just so amazing.
For the way she smiles,
Makes my heart beat 1000 miles.
Take her love and make it mine,
Brighten my day, make the sun shine.
Push away the saddening clouds,
Make me jump and sing aloud.
The time when I say to her, the things that I’ve kept hidden, may be next week, month or
year, but soon she’ll know how I feel.
And with that she’ll know that the love I have her for is truly real.
You

CHANGING FACES
We with different faces
Came from different places
Experienced in diverse phases
Tendering different cases
Many are the tendencies
If we adhere to our still small voices
Proffering unparallel advises
Charging us to stick relentlessly
Many say it is heresy
Presuming we are at events’ mercy
Mother Nature is not a cheat per se
Perseverance show it we may see
Unploughed vegetation proclaim it
Virgin routes announce it
Less trodden paths advertise it
Less dared woods justify it
To become a face in this place
You need awesome grace to race
To be notable in your race as a face
Showcase your pace for an unselfish case

Walking by me with such grace
Words fail me to express my craze.
Your eyes hold such mystery in them
Lifting me off my senses.
I cannot stop myself
From inclining in your direction,
Your eyes they put me in a trance.
A face so full of light and warmth
A beauty like i've never seen before.
Talking to you is like trying to walk on hot coals
I can never give in.
Your the only apple of my eye
Making my heart skip a beat.
Your beauty is unparallel
Like none i've ever seen.
It lingers to haunt me,
Even in my dreams.
Your smile holds a mystery
To be uncovered,
Everytime i try,
It conceals further.
What is it that keeps you from me?
Is it that you dont like or despise me.
All i want is to stare at you,
That is what is food for my soul.
Your existing and personality
Is such a conspiracy to me
The more i dwell in it,
The further i get carried away
Who are you?
Is what i want to know.

THOUGH HAVING NO SIN YOU PAID,
FOR OTHERS YOUR LIFE YOU LAID.
YOU MADE NO COMPLAINT OR PLEA,
GIVING YOUR LIFE TO SET US FREE.
MERCY WAS NOT GIVEN TO YOU,
YET IT IS ABUNDANT IN YOU.
LOVE WAS NOT SHOWN FROM US,
YET THAT IS ALL YOU SHOW US.
BEING KING YOU GAVE YOUR LIFE,
GIVING YOURS TO GIVE ETERNAL LIFE.
BEING TORTURED BY YOUR OWN,
INTO THE LION'S DEN YOU WERE THROWN.
THROUGH BETRAYAL AND TORTURE YOU LOVED,
THEY CUT, SPIT, HIT, MOCKED AND SHOVED.
YOUR LOVE IS UNPARALLEL TO ANY OTHER,
IT SURPASSES THAT OF A LOVING MOTHER.

Life is the embodiment of the unique existence,
the construct of universal elements nature chose
to manifest distinctively with the divine essence
in the unparallel trinity of body, mind and soul.
Beneath the surface of perceptive mortal senses
the mind builds all the dreams it desires to see.
Haunted by unreal apparitions in fear it invents
suffering the superstitious spell of surreal spirits.
Under the convolute layers of the transient mind
at the tranquil depth resides the enlightened soul,
imperishable, it sends the beacon of eternal truth,
builds subconscious holy linkage with the absolute.
Travelling on the undulating topography of life
an inward journey on the path of spiritualism
takes us to the ultimate destination of nirvana,
we learn the meaning of the trinity of existence.
