A warrior got shot
A warrior got up

He fell in dust
He rose to duel

For he was weak
For he became strong

Weak! You got him
Weaks you're in doom

One with no strength
One with duo strength

A man in agony
A man in victory

Risen by the man
Raises up the man

Did wat had to
Get back feels sober





Am so sorry partner, kindly accept my sincere apology.

Congratulations..... I remember the day you came here and asked if you were welcome to post your poems. A few months back. Nobody responded. Lol. Nostalgia.

Tomorrow evening the competition will be officially closed and an e-club launched. You or Royver could prepare to say something.

CONGRATULATORY AND GRATITUDE SPEECH

it's a profound pleasure and honour, in which I'm so elated, that this maiden collaborative poetry competition comes to an outstanding ending. Without mincing words, I congratulate every participant. You're all winners and you all wrote brilliant poems. I have always known and proud that Nairaland's got brilliant poets and this has proven my assertion right.

I honour everyone who assisted in making this a great success. I'd like to find some special skills of expressing my intense and deep appreciations to our impeccable judges:

TIMPAKER, I'm indebted to you, Sir. You're one of the greatest poet I have ever come across. Besides this, one of the kindest, humorous, and humble.

NOBLE4D, I can't thank you enough, Boss. Noble is truly Noble, coupled with kind heart and and warm soul. He's a great TEACHER of poetry, who knows the nitty-gritty, and along side with timpaker, they teach me and others how to construct brilliant poems. Thank you, sir.

And to think that timpaker and noble4d study literature far from it. It's the the poetic ink that runs through their veins at work.

OMA4U, when other expected judges didn't show up, I took the bull by the horn to access the poems, even though I seem not to be qualified. Pardon me, please.

My deep and sincere gratitude goes to who else if not LAYKORN. Sir, thank you for your immense supports.

To others who have one way or the other, or those my memory can't process now I say thank you.

With supports from those that I have mentioned earlier and IYABODEH, I hereby declare open NAIRALAND POETRY CLUB. I welcome everyone as we dwell in one another's ink.

Thank you
OMA






Pardon any blunder, abeg. No time to proofread.

Sleep evades me
(Odukoya A. Adeola)

Oh! My world crumbles
The pain tingles
This depair i need to elude
But sleep evades me

My crucial bone aches
My brain sheds like dusty cakes
All will be taken by slumber i thought
But sleep evades me

Joy pervades my mind
To darkness i became blind
Oh! Lots of fruit to pluck at dawn
But sleep evades me

Thoughts of battles fought visible
Sound of victory from afar audible
The night a veil between my medal and i
But sleep evades me

Sleep evades me; for joy overwhelms
Living me stuck in these fency realms
Sleep evades me; for sorrow lingers on
Only in drifting off does peace hides

oh! I need to escape this torture
Oh! Behind the night is my future
Night! I need to get out of this fog
But sleep evades me
