Poem of the day
THOSE TIMES
Those times when the nib of me biro
Dance to the song of my soul
Those time when everything turn upside down like the head of a slipping bat
Those times when I can't withhold the sorrow
When the suffering of this world pierce my skin like an arrow
Those times when people abandons me like an old mat
When friends drop me like an unripe mango
When I have no friend not even a foe
Those times when i fear that I won't last
When I fear dat I won't wake tomorrow
When my deep river becomes shallow
Those times when I remember I am the son of a helpless widow
When I Av noting and no one Will borrow
Wen poverty with me dance tango
I Will do my poetry for that all I know
I Will play the game of this world till I get my goal
For I am always happy then I remember there is one thin I know
The future is bright that what I know
