VICTORIA (A Poem For Lagos) by Gunsheep(m): 12:14am On Oct 26, 2018 |
Countless hours pass
En route to some place
The city of sin
From what was said.
Land of growth
From what was heared.
Cheerful Lasgidians,
Behold the moon-man
Stepping for my kind
Mankind.
Amid these feet and faces
The bridges, towers and
Ocean in her ripples
Echo the Eko salute
This is Lagos!
Ojota, Ikoyi, Ikeja, Badagry
How these people agree
On one and one thing only,
'E go better'
I found Lagos
Lagos found me
I met Victoria on the Island
Fairest of them all
And we all must woo her
Maiden,
Of many suitors.
