Poetry: The spirit of a child

by Ademola Adejumo

Created on: August 19, 2008

CEASEFIRE

When the teeth fall off,the nose is sure to collapse,
the bird that remember its flocking mate,never missed
the way,the lead cow,the one in front gets whipped the most,
a sheep that is owned by the whole town always goes hungry.
do not look where fell,but where you slipped.

For weeks I did not sleep,I cannot eat,because of my
mistakes,kindly forgive me are all friends,mothers
forgive me,a mother roudly protects her child with a
girdle on another mother's back,ladies and gentle men

forgive,it is true that I learn slowly,but now I have
learnt a good lesson,God forgive me and takeaway any
kind of curse of my head.

Okra tree does grow taller than its farmer,my teacher
forgive me,do not distroy me,do not fail me,am tired
of sitting down in the same class.
