Dreams could be described as possible eventualities girded with burning zeal, but hooked in the realm of imagination. Hence dreams become positive when they materialize in the physical world. In a nutshell, positive dreams are fulfilled hopes....

In the middle of the turbulent sea
Our ship is at the verge of wreckage
People on the shore scream
As we cry for survival
What do we do
When a kingdom is collapsing
How do we survive
The damage inflicted by
The political godfathers
Our...

Oh mother,
What a wound you've sustained!
You are meek and kind,
The foes still struck at you.
Awoke by the news,
My cry hits across the neighbourhood.
Ghana mourned with me,
And I refused comfort from Benin.
Whoever mocks my sobs
Let...
My Brainchild

As I peruse the sky there are stars, which form a galaxy.
But I observe a star as it glitters.
As I do research around rocks
there are stones, which gleam.
But I discover a diamond as it sparkles.
Though the stars which form galaxy

My Tomorrow Today

Of all the gems
Amidst the best,
On you falls my choice.
My dreams at night
Hopefully, a reality to grab.
Future today, eyes linger to see.
Miles away seem nearby.
Prayers in mind
As i make the move to reach.
Optimism, the blood in my...
Myth!
(Poetry)

"Earth, a paradise"
The statement becomes a myth
Planet earth, a reality
Existence of Paradise on earth
Is never a truth
About our cruel world,
Rotates on its axis
Faces the light awhile
And turns to the dark side
Peace surfaces today...
New dawn

As the day breaks
The shadow of the night fades
and our hope renews.
Remove those veils from your eyes,
Look ahead of you
See, our future is bright.
Heed not the counsel of fear,
Give not your mind to it,
But let your confidence remain...
POLITICAL DAMAGE
(Poetry)
29-09-2006
by gabriel babatunde oluwakorede
In the world of our own
our leaders fight for treasures
There is no thirst to serve
in their quest for the sceptre
Political thugs everywhere
as they lay ambush
to commit political killings
And like a game of death
politics is played
For...
Stigma

The clouds are dark, but it ceases to rain.
The dullness in the sky
Is a reflection of the world’s discrepancy.
The breeze freezes it seems cold.
But the chilly wind’s
An emblem of the world’s apathy.
In nature’s eye
We portray our acts...
This World

The ocean\'s depth is incredible,
The seas are overwhelming.
Like a scary dream at night
Our hearts pound on them.
Yet from among men,
The braves dive in them.
Tossed by the torrent of the dread,
The braves still persevere.
What a courage...
Tomorrow

hear as I beat the gong.
listen as the trumpet sounds.
gather at the market square
and hearken to the voice
of the watchman.
our crops, our crude oil,
the wealth of our nation,
they are all taken away.
the treasure of our land
has become...
