QUEEN OF MY HEART - Hamidat Doyinsola & Kazeem Adio

Image
 A few decades ago a baby was born looking radiant like a redolent spice Her Eyes wide-open like she came ready for it all Cried out  loud when she needed to be touched Mother’s eyes sparkled with love and some tears of joy Father’s heart filled with pride and a gratitude to God Everyone definitely knew a queen had just arrived Every hand seriously craved for a feel of her Her birth story is surely a tale like none other It’s worth being sang in an opera It’s a picture that must be painted for all to see This is indeed the story ‘the queen of my heart’   Written by: Hamidat Doyinsola & Kazeem Adio (C) 2022

I AM SAD LIKE A FUNERAL - BY SAKARIYAU ABDUL AZEEZ

Image
The question that torments my head  wages war against my heart The degree of its provocation lures tears to my eyes like excessive rain falling from the sky It keeps me in an agony of deepest dejection as it always makes me, tired to think I cry from the depth of my mind but the world around me is too dark to notice my existence I am sad like a funeral cos the wind whistling around me hinder the projection of my voice My homeland is burning Adult and children are wailing Wailing without approaches to quench the blazing The fire is in ecstasy And my people in disarray How easily the trauma evaporates from their minds When the fire fighters are around Is the surprise in my eyes And when their services are rejected After an accusation of harsh dexterity To curb the inferno The Echoes of disarray continue
