Dear lilies,
your bulb that spring up
are memories of hope and bliss
from flora in solitude.
(A prisoner acquit from confinement)
You rove lonely like the evening Moon
for two lover lurking privily at dark;
it is wonder you unclothe them
where bulbs of you are rooted.
Your varieties, I heard, are flossy
call it a “Rip of van winkle”
with many daisies taking it stands
to flourish in all spring.
The moment I realised how charming
you gloss the month of march
my fingers began sliding into extolment
caressing the faces of your rich flush
that blooms through the venetian sumac.
A smile needs no words
It is sweeter than any compliment
A smile needs no sound
It is louder than any extolment
A smile is irresistible
It evokes curiousness
A smile in infectious
It induces smiles on long faces
A smile can hide something
It blossoms over what aches in our hearts
A smile cannot be hidden
It signals every emotion in us
A smile is priceless
It is a fusion of all your senses with your soul
A smile is free
Share it and you won’t lose anything at all
Eased onto an exsiccated embankment
Enchanted by the empyreal expanse
Exhausted from day's endued earning
Yet elated at the endowment of esprit
Enjoying earth's earnest, emoting eye of
Emerald engraved in ecru in eyes that are
Endlessly enamoured with all existence; I
Echo 'er expression of enthralled euphoria
Evoking an effusive extolment of Eminence
OluDola2019.
A rich-only career fortress
A man’s world, where others protest to impress
Where you seek any progress
By being a self-starved actress
Where the normalcy of serial monogamy
Ignores the tenets of loyalty and family
Profanity has eloquence
Obscenity is glamourous
An industry dressed up in robes of hypocrisy
So avaricious but with tears over piracy
Diversity is merely for the stage
Equal opportunity is caged
Their life has a prescript
To live for a price tag
Their feelings are not distinct
But they live so far away from us
In world of sex and looks, always lusting for extolment
