NURTURING FRIENDSHIP

-

Solemnly, the race started in dark
With gists, with talk and walked  to smiles,
Like the nailing of that saving ark
Our friendship quickly run miles.

She's a bird of my feather
Times with her- a homely one,
In space we flock together
Without her- a lonely run.

Now love I shown but err was seen
This rightful wrong, who shall amend?
“Just let me be"- all she sings
This loving journey , is this how it'll end?

Our departure, my mind it tortures
This friendship ought to be nurtured.

TO THE WORLD, FROM THE WORLD

Restless I become, like a leaf, dancing on water, When terms unspoken ripples along my tummy. . I wish I could also spit and breathe life, to walk, But, what dominion has a word over the world? . Since this wide wordy world is not my own, Only these terms I utter -- my possessions. . Behold, these countenance creatures of mine, In many minds, it shall walk, to live, after me. #PsalmsInk © Samuel O. Ogunyinka, (Psalmist).
