Opeyemi Oluwafemi Adebayo Poem
In the field of life-
There’s a cause to strife.
For us to thrive-
We all must strive.
There are oppositions-
Beware of commotions.
Give no suppositions,
Attacks are no assumptions.
As a team we play-
With a goal every day.
The drive to win,
The play all have seen.
Every tactics with a pass-
Is a marriage with the grass.
The children of the couple;
Others it can topple
With hands on deck
There’ll be no wreck
For a goal-
Is a radiation of every role

Opeyemi Oluwafemi Adebayo Poem
Keep me in the midst of my peers-
Far from the weeds hated.
We are brothers they say-
And there I shall reside.
Lower me deep though,
Far from their reach.
A root of no trace-
I will grow to be.
One eye out and one in-
Is my guard of safety.
To grow in strength-
For them to wane.
I'm not a fam of theirs,
To fear for their end.
Their space I must enlarge in-
Spread my tent far to their doors.
Their crops I will possess-
Enrich my branch with their drinks.
When they knock for remuneration,
Crumps for their silence I rain.
Wet their floors with sweat,
Scatter the leaves that grow wings.
Burrow the grounds they root in
And cut their shoots to never rise again.

BE CREATIVE
Being creative
May be addictive
To think right-
Is less might
Rest your muscle
To pen a puzzle
Let your words scream
Bring to pass a dream
Strike men in the heart
Thrust through them like dart
Make the world reason new
But make those that ponder few
Turn your ink to a print,
Let your lines run a sprint
Form a thoughtful world of track
That their pace may run the track
Make the world innovative
And let their thoughts associative
For the word makes the world
So pen and make it called
That the living-
May reason
And those that read
May lead

The cash and carry of love
Which summer doth requisite
When will thou birth me a dove?
Soon autumn will bid for hunt- 5
To gratify winter’s drudge
Oh! Far is the sight of spring
None can pacify better
For season flies without wings
And quick does it charm scald beauty
Of whose time shall be pleaded? 10
As vaguely summer doth leave
Crow beckons with a caw
The womb that is long barren
Whom for eon is not loved
And in earth’s hate it joy is lost 15
Quick drains life off it victim

Free flowing here and there
Filling the void everywhere
A thousand miles within a call
Yet not a space to lie and fall
Within a sphere their beauty I clean
At their beck and call though far reaching
Their holes I feel pouring my soul
To the dreamland I meet their goal
I haste for no time
Though the dim is my prime
Yet I’m far from a friend
Their start is my end
So on I go

Opeyemi Oluwafemi Adebayo Poem
If I a song to you will harp-
Such that you I to muse
That'd be my chant-
So your artery and vein fuse
If a word will call
To which your heart wake
The tongue be drunk till the dusk-
To see in your pupil your lush
If be will I
A fountain to descend
I'll mountain you to the summit-
Place, where love is no beginning
Conceives no end
Aims are to the sky
Towering through the lands
But my love a space to be
Endless, you to fill-
Even till your lids grace the bed

Opeyemi Oluwafemi Adebayo Poem
If we are a breed of beings,
Species of like doings-
In the Milky Way
Why not be that today?
Have I turn a bat
Lost my light of the frat
Or a Braconid
To my kind?
Why the abrupt repellency
To the unfolding literacy
How will I feed my stance
Upon the extinct of other hands?
Why the weighed loathsome
The infinite gruesome
Of my phylum-
Within my kingdom?
What's with the conscription,
The circumscprition-
Of liberty
Stamping it in entirety?
What's with the thirst of a fuehrer,
The queer conceit of the other-
To weightily parti pris
And indulge in an hostility spree?
Can I not be mindful of the Scythrops,
Make of their trait crops,
That will acculturate
Rather than berate?
Can I not be for the domain,
My essence extended to the terrain,
Express compassion without pain
And adore for no gain?
Instead, I lushed
To hike mass agitative state,
That deludes the mind
Of my kind-
To prey on their own.

Opeyemi Oluwafemi Adebayo Poem
The shadows are nearing their loss
E’en the rays are growing weak
Foams darken as the bolt strikes
A blizzard of drops I fear it is
The prints! How far will thy end be?
Hmm! I see thy mother, her tents-
With depths about she scatters
Thick and sticky they stand judging
Soon fall my hope from whence it hung,
The stream of gums there it may drop
Yet ceaseless my arteries work
Re-tuning my heartbeat’s pounds
Issues cover gold polish-
Like the body that travels white
A curse it stamps on their souls
Sinking the hope they pride on
Quick to fail is my faith for the-
Irony my thought feeds it with
Can only get better, but worse-
It seems and disheartening it is
A once bad experience turns worse
A tale, the promise becomes-
Of a path so good e’en the-
Festival ram would not walk on
Well! Will speak well of what I-
Want and expect that which I long-
For, trusting an appointed-
Time waits it drainage for a new track

Though knitted, yet far reaching
Close, but deceiving
Unbroken we are living

Though exhausting and needed-
For intelligence prime,
Yet cannot be yearned for.
