POVERTY......IS......LUXURY

Penury thats the name you bear.
Omniscient to man, all despair.
Verily, you are a friend to none.
Ever present in the life of some.
Ride on, for you have no place.
To be wealthy, is all we crave.
Yearn to our plea, please efface.

In our lifes, we hope for fame.
Surely, riches trails our lane.

Life full of satisfaction, no exposure,
Under the beautiful tent of pleasure.
Xmas celebrated with much funfare,
Under the beautiful tree we rare.
Remain with us till the end of time.
Yesterday is gone, today is in its prime.

3. DREAMS

Deep, and at the same time shallow,
Real-like, and also an illusion.
Expanding as imaginations grow,
At times, it might result into a vision.
Meaningful or meaningless as the case maybe,
Slipping through the dark till the eyes will see.

4 - GLORIAZ

G
lory that my wicked eyes beheld in you.

L lowered me

O konkwo, the lion,the savannah symbol of greatness.

R eadily dancing to the cursed melodious notes your lips produced.

I dolized for the roundness of your hips,fullness of your lips, the dandy way you sip.

A h, might is not might. Might is the softness of your skin,the bones on your cheeks, your touch, your feel.

Z esty love, you awoke in me, and slowly slowly you killed the destructive spirit of me.

Gloriaz you are poison.

5 PASSION OF LIFE

Pain of love
assail a thousand ones in the marrow,
supremacy reigns even in the
state of delirium.
intoxicating my mind
oh! Wet weed.
Need i cry more.


Organization is like breathe,
fury a spoilt bean cake.


Leakage of it a bad fate.
Inject not your mind with crimson
for on the last day
eek for joy at heaven gate.

6. MY NAME;MY LOVE FOR YOU.

E ngulfed in an ocean of admiration at miles,
V entilates my thought with your smiles,
E nthralled by your feminine savour like limes,
R ustling to make ends meet on time,
E nsuring you live and breath with your nose and also mine.
S inging the sweet songs of the lovely nightingale,
T easing with words as we head from the vale,
D eeping my finger in your dimples as we fare,
E victing the thoughts of losing you to noon-mares.
B eautifully seeing my daughters face on you as I stare,
L oving you in tears and fears like today is the last,
I mplant yourself I beg,on my daughter,so my tears be dried fast.
U ntil I breath my last,for you my love will stand tall like a mast.

7. YOUR NAME FOR MINE

E ntreaty from afar.
V ibrations that stir this "heart in a jar".
E mboldened, by the touch of your breath.
R ecognized and appreciated till death.
E nabling our hearts, like bells to ring.
S uch sweet songs, together we'll sing.
T easing words pass in the mist,
D eepenig affection,
E victing thoughts of predilection.
B eguiling eyes in a cherubic face.
L oving little boy in our embrace.
I nstilled in him your fathers and mine.
U nbreakable bond, His design.

8 - MOTHER IN ISREAL by gloriaz

MOTHER IN ISRAEL

Mrs is our mother in Israel. Always
Over ready to dole out advice, like the
Tap in my mother's backyard.
Hers are eagle eyes, and more. Forever

Examining your skirt before you
Realize a chance to tempt those boys.
Instigating a war if she sees any
Nefarious stray eyes on ' her girls '.

Is there another Mrs like her?
She is the protective one. The
Rare proverbs woman. She is a mother,
Allaying all our fears. Blessed be the
Earth that accepted her, and the
Lives that knew her.

Gloriaz has had problems posting on Nairaland. This had been submitted before the deadline.

T ex
E ntered this world in the City of Angels.
X pected much later than she came.
A rizona sunshine soon kissed her cheeks as she
N uzzled under her mother’s bosom, two faces the same.
O ptimism beaming and a future bright.
M other was a name she would soon stop calling,
A nd Daddy would become blight.
L ight beamed still, it kept her from falling.
Y ielding to His will soon became her calling.

LIT SLOT:
Like a watercolour held under stream

Ideas in my head I thought were hard stone

Thought were hardest rock in the jungle of ours

So strong and clearly defined by journalists

Like statues of Tokyo made of jelly sucked

On your tongue until they were nothing but a sweet

Taste.
