Privateness seclusion in mine solitude
Isolation retirement
Freedom from interference
Mental calm in mind...

When a precedent-busting pandemic is palling around the world 
when its concomitant panic and pain freak out
it is your fine figures that are unflinchingly unfurled
e'en as proctective gears barely eke out.

Isolation wards owe you diligence...

Fumbling for my lighter I saw you: 
unlit cigarette awaiting illumination. 
I smiled - appealing for enlightenment, 
and you came to my rescue, igniting 
my interest with a spark of ardour. 

You struck the match...

Friends?
Are we still friends?
Can we JUST be friends?!?
Oh such a horrid, charity-stained question!

What a keen and salient dagger it wields!
The pity that you wear like black lace finery,
Is as deadly and whetted a sword as...

Not allow politics to pollute the populace
With issues like regionalism and language 
Permit free movement of men and goods
Connect the country with tree-lined roads.

Deal ruthlessly with anti-national elements
Issue stern warning to all political animals
Mischief by...

What is life that we must be mindful of?

When I’m enticed by the allure of forever,
Ambivalent, I query, prospect of eternity:
If there’s no dying, what fate’s my destiny?
Would such existence be sans meaning?

Would I be the compassion of pious soul
If I am blessed...

At the beach, digging beneath the pier
harvesting minute shells;
sharks teeth and all sorts of goodies; 
I make jewelry you see; Cowrie earrings paired
exclusively with brown Tiger-Eye; a tasty treasure, 
eye candy of a semi-precious nature.

Naticas,...

When angst and hate my rancor stirred
Fuming indignation, reddening my face,
Emotions choked as muscles tightened,
Slurring my speech, abandoning grace;

And rational discourse then disappeared
Vowing vengeance to correct a wrong,
Dissonance hollered, yet no one listened,
Donning grimace that...

The pathway to peace is strewn with goodwill
Arms embracing those suffering from poverty,
A thousand points of light upon a shining hill.

To the Golden Rule pledging allegiance still
No violence like before plagued our history,

Oh, dear Cot, you have supported me steady
From my days of infancy to senility
All through life you are my close buddy, 
In unrest, it is in you I seek tranquillity.

I was looking for the font “Fairplay.”
It has an aesthetic view, often,
to sound more, to mean more too!
I was trying for an eco poem,
I am still trying, in lines,pacing,setting,enjambment
and line breaks,assonance,anaphora and so on!

The threshing floor divides the brisk cold winds
and too gentle zephyr of mortality.
I choose the rose-red blush where death rescinds.

My mind reels with the thrill of whiteout blinds
buffeted by green field sentimentality.
The threshing floor divides...

Come my soul...
Let us bend the night air a bit
From aerial views 
make licorice paths
mapping our trails through the firefly fields.
Let us disband with cordiality
for I am as heavy as rain with the weight you...

Gods of our land, this is Kola! 
Food by your very own hands baked, 
Which breathes life into us. 
He who brings Kola brings life, 
Here in my hands is Kola. 
May hospitality never leave...

the night is young and warm...
   awkward initial niceties
      of hazy acquaintances,
         guarded cordiality with
half-hearted joviality,

A tiny tot
Playing alone
In the park
Amongst other kids

Suddenly dragged someone's yellow car
To drive on
They snatched it away from her
In her swaddling clothes she woolly babbled

As if wanted to drive her microcosm's destiny
Gradually she headed
And threw...
