The Adorable Enigma

In Taiba Niasse's embrace, a SAGE did rise,
Sheikh Ibrahim Niasse, under African skies.
Tijaniyya's beacon, a mystic so grand,
sheikh Al Islam, a waliyi proMax 
Spreading wisdom, love across the earth.

In robes of serenity, his presence did glow,
Through Sufi teachings, a river did flow.
A lantern of knowledge, shining brightest,
Sheikh Ibrahima Niasse, a celestial light.

From Senegal's heart, to the Saharan dunes,
His words echoed, like harmonious tunes.
A spiritual guide, a compassionate seer,
In the tapestry of time, a luminary peer.

The greatest lover, of the holy Prophet when Baye speaks, about Muhammad (SAW), we see no difference 
A gem so beautiful, nobody could figure. 

A lion so charismatic, loved by all 
In shadows cast, by strength he stood,
Sheikh Ibrahim niasse, like a lion grand.
Majestic spirit, fierce and free,
Roaring courage, wild decree.

Eyes ablaze, with fiery might,
Heart untamed, a daring sight.
Baye so open, yet unseen 
Known by all, believed by few
Worked so hard, even as a child. 

With humility vast, as the ocean's expanse,
Legacy woven, in threads of devotion,
Sheikh Ibrahim Niasse, an eternal ocean.
Sheikh Ibrahim Niasse, the adorable enigma.


Premium Member Making You Happy My Precious Love

Upon the winds whispering so gently a love story unfolds
Under soft beautiful clouds with rainfalls splashing love
With two lovers holding, caressing, and kissing one another

The radiant azure sky fresh with recent rain and a rainbow
Gives way toward evening to a cold moon face wishing to 
Take the two lovers to a faraway special place full of sunshine

This magical place is where the sun shines forever beautiful
And the feelings, desires, passions, and emotions of love are 
Always together true as ONE of a much bigger love portrait

This young man and woman walk hand-in-hand very much in 
Love while listening to the far distant echoes thundering from 
Surrounding cliffs while near the ocean dream seagulls cry aloud

As the man opens the gates of this paradise with his special lady
They both experience at once blinding tears of warm joy, and he 
Just wants to fulfill immediately her every wish to be happy in love

The young man tells his sweetheart with a most earnest passion: 
 “Dearest One, I want so much to make you happy my precious love!”
Our love My Sweet unites our bodies and souls so complete and whole

These two lovers have found their paradise fulfilling their dream of being
Together always walking under a wonderful star-filled sky dazzling pure
Sharing their love and seizing their very destiny now—Two now as ONE

Silver Thread

The plight of a poet's words 
having no one to read
With our souls full of emotions 
needing to be freed
It's our duty to show others a 
world through our eyes
Breathing truth into subjects 
doing away with the lies

Where the ocean kisses the 
tan sandy shores
Anything sounds seductive 
with well placed metaphors
Beauty in the words so that 
they can loudly speak 
Or as they softly murmur 
as listeners they seek

All along just wanting to 
be read and appreciated 
While admiring the beauty with 
their meanings well debated
Spring, fall, summer, and winter 
all gorgeous seasons
Describing each spectacular 
one's way to be teasin

So let's ride upon the 
moonbeams brilliant glow
Listen how echos bounce 
off planets in perfect flow
Using our words of poetry 
to be descriptively read 
Showing how we weave 
words with silver thread

Premium Member Trimurti Consciousness

When I say, "I am Shiva,"
I actually mean I'm eternally one with pranava.
I've always existed: we each have our atma.
I destroy bad karma to recreate my dharma.

When I say, "I am Vishnu,"
I actually mean we are one, as I am all of you.
We're all divine entities preserving what's true.
I preserve reality in the cosmic ocean we brew.

When I say, "I am Brahma," 
I actually mean we create based on every law,
We create things which may each have a flaw,
Only because we must learn lessons of karma.

When I say "I am an aspect of Brahman,"
I actually mean I am more than simply human.
So are you, you just need to realize you can
Transcend and see how cycles forever span.

I'm no scholar, nor do I lay claim to above-average intelligence.                                                                                          However, I suggest that the question is not, "Have you the ability?"                                                                                      But rather, "Have you the availability? That is the real question.                                                                                           

Like ocean tides that keep rushing to the shores;                                                                                                                       Or like rivers beating their pathway with a steady roar,                                                                                                           God can inspire the least of us for His own purpose and Glory.

And based on my experience and what I have observed                                                                                                             In both the Scriptures and in life, God does not demand                                                                                     Perfection as a Divine prerequisite for usefulness.                                                                                                    

But rather, it is to the extent of our AVAILABILITY and                                                                                   Our yeildedness to God that He is able and pleased to use us.                                                                                 Few are those available compared to those who are able.

Premium Member If They

If they make you transform into a puddle of goop at their feet, then you know you’re in trouble and you should run before it gets too deep
If they convey that the words in the love songs that they hear make them think of you, and that they never paid attention to the words before, not until they found you
If they make your heart stop beating just by looking deeply into their eyes, if they make you lose your breath just from a single touch and then you audibly sigh
If they can make you feel their presence from across the room, if they can make your heart leap into your throat then forgive the language, but you’re screwed

If they can make all of the outside world vanish just from speaking your name, and if they can make your craziness disappear and suddenly you’re sane
If they can look into your eyes and you can feel them examining your soul, if they can do this then you better run before it’s too late, I know
If they can make you want nothing more than to feel their lips on your own, if they can stare you down without blinking and do nothing but turn you on
If they can just sensually run their fingertips across your skin, and if they can make you wish with every part of you that this feeling never has to end

If they can read your every thought and put words to it and express it to your racing heart, if they can make you cry out in ecstasy in a way that no one has ever thought
If they can love you after and hold you in their arms and you feel so spent but at the same time complete, if they can make you want to lie with them forever and do anything but sleep
If they can profess their undying love for you and back it up with such pure heartfelt emotion, if they can promise that they will find you wherever and that they will cross any ocean
If they can tell you I love you as they look so deeply into your eyes, if they can just walk away thereafter and never look back then you know it was all a lie.

Notions To Ponder

Notions To Ponder

Ancient sacred Hallowed ground astounds the place where footsteps fear to tread 
Complacent sounds among the working poor as they are consumed with dread 
Adjacent mounds of prayer that culminate to form the voices in her head 
Renascent formations of heavenly dispensations for the reborn and the dead 

Movement upward toward the notion of relief 
Improvement for the dreary who are consumed by latent grief 
Amusement of the masses as the technology imposes like a thief
Inducement of the natural world that defies all logical belief 

Anaesthetically disempowered by the nature of mankind 
Momentarily devoured by the greedy and unkind 
Consequentially showered by thoughts of benevolence and refine 
Instrumentally de flowered as one dances in perfect mime 

Wondering through time and space to contemplate an afterthought 
Pondering upon disgrace as one is feeling over wrought 
Plundering the earth defaced as resources can be bought 
Encumbering the sacred space of a philosophical astronaut 

Divinations and invocations of conceptual devotion 
Intonations of elevations that rise above the ocean 
Collaborations of condemnations as she is overcome with emotion 
Insinuations of contemplations that preside over all the commotion

Amalina the Queen of Sheba

AMALINA: THE QUEEN OF SHEBA

To the Queen of Sheba.
Unraveling of your thesis and your folklore
To devour your whole body in form of study
Zipping the raw facts in the mind's lobby
Trying to digest them, stew over them
As I reach for my wine glass stem
So I let them simmer on the back-burner,
The knowledge of you is never in conclusions
The whole of you: regurgitate all in discussions
Diverse shades of you cooked up in explanations
Hoping they do not seem half-baked from head to toe
Your eyes were glittering jewels that seized my soul,
Take me to Sheba and witness my ecstatic reign
And your dry ground be wet with heavy rain
To wash away your clumsiness and depression
And give your life sense of homeliness and expression
Sail with the westwind to blow you ashore
Right at the lake of rough diamonds,
The kingdom of King Vick the Solomon
To drink from the ocean of wisdom
And bask in the affectionate comfort of Cupid
Having being shot afar in the Queen City,
The Grenfell Tower couldn't shield you from these arrows of love
Emanating from the base of Lagos City,
The City that never sleeps and never seek pity.

Premium Member That Which Makes Me Smile

From a reddish horrifying gloomy cloud which brings upon a frowning
beast~  I shall overcome and finally a smile shall bring me peace—poet :)

                 Smiles are weapons against pain
                 Armor protection for depression or hate
                 Diffusers for an opponent’s attack
                 Antidotes of dopamine and cortisol
                 Smiling eyes are the windows to the soul
                 some say, yet smiles can be deceiving
                 A player uses his charm that sweeps you away
                 An enemies leer stirs unspoken innuendos,
                 mouth is smiling yet dead eyes defy 
                 A ghoulish grin denies it's upside-down smile,
                 scornful cinnabar smears, spanning ‘cross the lips 
                 from cheek-to-cheek as fingers paint 
                 when tears deny a petulant pout
                 ‘Tis what makes me frown 
                 What makes me smile can be admired in;
                 Arts colorful paintings, ancient and new 
                 Fashion Design, Egyptian hieroglyphics 
                 Poetry, witty with a bit of whimsy
                 humorous Limericks with mindful tricks
                 Animals and a child's innocence 
                 a baby’s giggle, a kitten’s purr,
                 a puppy’s warmth, a bird’s chirp 
                 Musicals songs, Movies Rom-coms  
                 Theatre recites, the Opera excites
                 Dances that mash up with Western music, high energy
                 fusion of styles global, multifaceted technique
                 Bolly-Hop, Disco-Funk, Tap! Is sheik 
                 Music's nostalgia, classical is golden
                 Nature's moonshine, sunshine, a stolen starry night 
                 Red bourbon rosette, blue violet, fragrance flowers                           
                 From land to Ocean, to the crystalline sapphire sea
                 Food and drink, Antipasto, mint Iced Tea, 
                 Tapas and Sangria, Hors d’oeuvres and cognac 
                 Finally and most of all what makes me smile?
                 Love of life, so free-spirited, it gives love back

When I'M Gone

Incinerate my corpse when I'm gone,
It might sound weird but it's already decided alone,
Prudent it is,when you offer my wish,
Not to say,you're honouring my departures dish,
Not to think you're paying homage to me as tribute,
That time will I be conscious of not even a rebuilt,
Regard this statements as folly,
Jerk your hand against me wholly,
Yesterday served the world a tasty and bitter plate of pancakes, 
We all ate together;everybody got filled as stake,
Today really won't be exempted from pernicious days,
Brought to me a strong and staunch fighters race,
In spite of it not being gendered,it proved a sapient lesson,
Offered me with a boxer's poison,
Stood me at the front line to win,
My fans cheered for a king,
At a tender age,I was solidified with rebel regulations, 
"Yeah,...hero of our pride",they screamed in sections,
But I don't think they wish to be in my shoes,
Sniffles and tremble over rules,
"Will you keep your face with so much wounds,
Just because of cheers from fans?",my wife told me,
Offers came in from tight plea, 
And wasn't able to refrain from them,
At last,I lost everything;including my wife, 
"The end of a man is not defined by a fall",
I always pick this statement as an analogy with confidence,
Nothing was available to excite my child,
Out of frustration,she sometimes makes me appear mild, 
Better days ahead of speech,I won back everything, 
Renewed home was established together with my daughter, 
Possibly,tried to hustle not each other for happiness,
Her mum was not with us,and that kept our souls troubled, 
It was strong and sad step rumbled, 
We can talk about that later,
If I don't talk about heavy rain falling around me,
"Dad what else do we need aside this son of GOD ,called Jesus?",
She will tell you all dealers,
And memories will groan in wildness, 
Causing you to jump over an ocean with matches,
Take off the gloves from my hands,and burn me into ashes,
Because,I'm done with the fighter in a ring.
