SERENITY

SERENITY!

Oyster beach
pastured greens
dancing palm trees
the sea and barren coast

I want serenity
I pray for solemnity
I seek shelter
In a canopy of thick leaved plains
I want to dance
to the music
of the dazzling breeze
Fruit sheltered forth in the wood

Life is a war that takes
no prisoner
I search for calm
I seek refuge

East wind
Take me to the woods
far away from
trolls and savages

I long to ferry
to a place
where my mind can wander
and my thoughts can soar
higher
hover on the beauty of nature

I want back my sanity
Bring me to peace
I want serenity.



I long for nature beauty
to see the landscape wowing with grapes and tender flowers
to bring back my sanity.


Something Cool
Life in calmness
Nature Peace
THE SERENITY

Blame The School System for Those Lies Our Teachers told Us.

BLAME THE SCHOOL SYSTEM FOR THOSE LIES OUR TEACHERS TOLD US Blame the school system for those lies our teachers told us in the classroom. Good grades are not what life needs, in reality,  good grades sometimes don't take you up there but they condition your mind to one man's idea.   Blame the school system for teaching us how to manage other people's thoughts, it never taught us how to think  but how to manage and hold on to the thoughts, principles, formula and theories of some men before us.  why don't you sit down one day and question all these principles and formula and theories you were taught in the school?  The school system told our teachers to tell us that  in order for us to be successful in life, we'll need  good grades that will get us a good and secured job in the nearest future not ideas that will create jobs for us.  Blame the school system for those lies our teachers told in the classroom and leave those lies to discover who you are.  T

AYOOLA!

By
Ayoola . Our love is like the moral of “Alujanjankijan” Where those who took heed never lost So if we aim for love, let us aim for trust And let us be not "Laipo" and the people of Ibadan. . Jowo Ayoola — I've thread the path of our feelings Seeking for pedigree in the land of Ajoji I've longed for you in the market of Onikolobo Where your wears are dyed with the shades of indigo . Ayoola — The night you stayed, holding my arms The moon beamed and a poem paired my heart And Eye-Orin gladdened with the love we fond And sang of us in her thousand songs. . Ayoola — If my love for you was any exceptional The trees would line up to enchant your smile And I will send pumpkins just for you to know That for you I could thread on the path of Olu-igbo . Ayoola — You're beautiful than any other thing You're glamorous than the charms of Egbin For when you winked in the city of Jos Your beauty was seen in the town of Oke-Odan. . Ayoola — It is h

ARIYIKE

Arike One day, I will gather our kids and take them far away on a beautiful tale of how love held me sway on it's adventurous sails I will serenade them with stories from yore days about how unwary jokes morphed into flames of amorous desires I know they will laugh hearts out when I tell them about the timeless times I rehearsed fine lines hoping to sweep you off your feet and make brightly-coloured, winged things swirl and tumble in your innards. The very lines that fell in beautiful places in my head always flew away like freed birds when i needed them And then I will look away sheepishly like the fool I was First, it was a tingling then I got a feeling even caught my heart singing And you were the lyrics I dilly dallied but this feelings tarried Till my heartbeats synced in melody with yours When I wasn't looking love fell on my heart And when my heart was in faraway lands love came knocking Olarike You are more than wha
