Olufemi Stephen Omolara Poem
I am the skipper of this ship;
A ship is a ship, whatever name you tag it with.
With face overwrought and fierce this ship I steer.
The stars my guide, with tears I press on,
Looking for the shore not sure exist
On a voyage to a not sure future land.
Melancholy the cabin aid not a friend to sleep
Against rocky water I have to row.
Many a times broken rudder I have to man.
All hands on deck roar I to no one around.
Aye skipper Aye to myself answer I.
A hard nut, this hardship, for weather to crack.
Why is there no crew as my heart desires?
Why no mates here on this ship so hard?
Why is the journey so long and unsure?
And where exactly is this harbor of joy?
Why is it always a man to ship so large?
Why is the course so treacherous to navigate?
My thoughts every day as I am manning this hardship.
Is your ship as hard as mine?
When you get the answers say Aye! Aye! to the skipper.

Olufemi Stephen Omolara Poem
Start little but yet dare dream big.
Crocodile, worms and insects,
eats when little but
now deer, buffaloes kills and eats
And if the lion is slack it can become food.
But It starts on insects!
Start something today and dream it big.
If big you cannot start,
Then make big, that you start.
Dare to dream big!

Olufemi Stephen Omolara Poem
Friends are like flowers, they spring in spring and blossom!
In season they come with smiles to lit up your world,
No, they, more than flowers are, out of season stay they!
The smiles in season to make sure remain.
Yes, friends are that flower, which blossom all year round.

Olufemi Stephen Omolara Poem
The world I rule, in my heart I do
The crown I bear, with my LOVE I wear
Who wants to rule the whole world,
With her sores and puss?
When with LOVE, a wonderful world create I
Where there is none greater than LOVE?
Who cares to be the boss?
When with LOVE we can care all for one
And one for all?
I am a creation of LOVE
With fluid of her breasts I am strong
In warmth of her womb there I was formed.
In the rays of her light I glow.
On the throne of her laps reign I the king!
Who cares to rule the whole sour world?

Olufemi Stephen Omolara Poem
If only if, our hearts, less competitive can be,
then in love, together we win.
If only if, our lives less oppressing can be;
Then in love, all we win together as one.
If and only if, our hearts less offensive can be; then in love, together we win.
When and only when our hearts less deceptive can be; then then with love, all will win as one.
When and only when, our hearts are larger than the oceans; then all round we win with smiles
Where only where, we clear the road for those that run like snail, there, we win, all, as one.
If only if, we know that not one, but all, that make a people, all will rise a champion.
A stick of broom is less offensive to the flies; in bunch they wage a war and win!
