Iyani ni iya mi”, my mother!
Your love for me transcends this border!
Every flower, I behold, a reminder of your persona.
The yellow tulips of spring, like your beauty;
Vibrant and sweet natured.
Marigold of summer enlivens like sunshine…

When life shouts in no uncertain term, “she is Boss” ….mnh
Brags and brandishes her crimson-stained fingers,
An angry wave slaps me in the face like a lone rock at sea.
My mind knows peace!

How do I stay calm
Without praying a psalm?

Grasping and couldn’t breath at all
You hold your chest in distress
And say it’s nothing when I fret
Fully aware it’s triggered by stress

Stung by folks with hidden plots
Wary I am to label one a friend
Like sea cucumbers, they spill their guts
And secrets become the trend
They lie in wait, and wish you’d rot
But grovel back to make amend
Trust earned you this great spot

Everything spirals south
From waking to zero balance account

The cold breeze slapped with a sense of clarity
This time the sky was dark and gloomy
The stars had gone to sleep.
This time there was no audience.

Is it deep, raspy or croaky?
Silence shouts back like a trumpet.
Is it soft, tender or low key?
Portrait stares like French crumpet.
Is it laced with a Texan drawl when he says enamored
Or like one in a brawl as everyone clamored.
