Nursery Rhymes Only Contest - sponsored by Eve Roper
To Eve’s winning contestants, I write this poem for you.
I have read each one and commented till I am blue.
You won’t see them there however.
I’ve been getting an error forever.
Your nursery rhymes are clever, cute, unique, and precious.
It is the comment fields that are the most treacherous.
So know I have read and do wish you congrats!
My non-existent comments will skew your stats.
It’s “Error!” “Error!” “Error!”
I am a “System 500” starer.
Where is that IT repairer?
Should I cross my fingers or say a prayer?

SPECIAL 83th BIRTHDAY DEDICATION TO AKINWAMDE OLUWOLE SOYINKA
HEARTY CONGRATS
The Great Wole,
Here you are with another added age with grace
The grace of the creator bestowed on you
Shines the light since the very day you were born
And up till now at age 83 the light shines brighter
The Great Wole,
This is the day
Another happy day signed by the most High
For who has made you go this far
The art world, humanness, the creativity in you
Are ever exceptional, inspirational and dramatical
And has got no end, they keep flourishing
The Great Wole,
Varieties of God blessings will never cease in your life
At 83 the wishes are still many more years and good health
At 83 continue to grow from strength to strength
And from one glory to another
Forever the leading light will shine in you.
Happy Birthday!!!

Form: I do not know?
Gat not much to say
But that all will pay
Both hubby and wifey
In the life race that
is pacey.
Dream not again
For the reality is
now a rain
Very cold to the skin
Shredding the
thickest cover to the
thin.
Together you are
now
Forever and ever,
so take a bow!
From us all
And walk with heads
tall!
Barakah and Sakinah
I see
Flowing with you in a
sea
Swim and dwell in it
And felicitate forever
with it!
Happy Married life!
A life free from strife!

The gloves are drawn
audience in deep silence
the chill of the silence arises and it becomes a scream;
you’ve won
you’ve shown me what you want
what you expect
but i cannot yet grasp that train of thought,
why is there always a specific way
to burn and drag me away
along the carpet, rug burns
but i can make it stop.
It’s the key i haven’t found,
must i move to prove i found
that key, that potential
or will it ever be enough,
will anyone.
The fact is you’ve won
I’ve heard this one before
i make the choices, you chase them
trying to change me,
rearrange me
and strip me from my pride,
which really just gets thrown on the ground?
stomped on, crunched,
like a fragile piece of paper,
that silhouette of pride,
confidence
it’s shattered within the milliseconds
when true desire to please is thrown out
attempt so worthless
I feel nothing but this frustration,
Agitation and in reality, I’m going mad.
this need for impressing,
need for making everyone else happy
Has gone.
It will be me first from now on.
