=====================================
My head is resting on your flower
Your hands do me velvet shower,
Your heartbeat is melodious murmur
Your warm lap raises my clouds tower

Your presence fill my empty space
No need, no want no desire remains
Nothing absent in your elegant grace
Your smile enriches me all the gains

Your touch makes me like your hue
True sunshine reflects in morning dew
Both of us are mingled to become blue
In your body blanket, I am not I but You

You transforms me what I am not but you
In your body blanket my soul becomes you

Yesterday
A man who was carrying his belly and
Taking it everywhere he went
Bought my childhood
Father smirked
Mother went after the kettle's whistle
Till the cup's rim
Got used to the room's temperature
Today
The door was the shield
Against the attack of my book bag,
And behind that, my legs were dancing
The windows recognize
The exciting passionless kisses
Among clouds of chaos
Faster than any bicycles,
Leaving with trucks
Tomorrow
I would buy a newspaper
Searching for a name for myself

My ashes will dance in the air of time
My body will feel the warmest fire
My soul will leave my body to swim in the water of void
And my name will remain on earth unstained

Termites won't feed on me
My bones remain whole
As my days traveled into the coffin of divine treasure
As my sun continues to shine in the ether where God lives

Akin to birch moments I do recall we share
Under jocund tree our teeth smile
Sharing dreams of unfulfilled years
All of a sudden hysteria aired in my heart's ears

Love I have fade
Queries you drop turns like hade
Base of our love capside into sands
Of time as a bleaching detergent upon a cloak

Your pink color turns grey
And white turns black
Void of happiness becomes lighted sadness
Reason is you hurt my feelings

Sun I wish never ever shines
So stars twinkling marjoram in your heart
Piercing you so deep that you feel what I feel
And the venom spreads across your veins so you know how real my love is

It must be an excellent idea
Beginning to forgive the neighbor
Knowingly it's a hard labor
Just want to clean the chamber

It must be an excellent idea
Releasing all convictions
Challenge your heart to devotion
Even with a little potion

It must be an excellent idea
Rainbow sky delight
Sweet tenderness in moonlight
Light rain sky turn on the light

It must be an excellent idea
Watching the children smile
Fighting the cancerous hunger with style
Be compassionate undoubtedly worthwhile

Break me apart
Or put my heart in chains
Make my eyes break down in
tear
You can throw my feelings in
the mud
Spill your pain in the rain
Yet my love for you is
unconditional
You may have been broken
Your happiness may have been
stolen
Your body may have been
ripped apart
And your heart is determined
To reject
Yet my love is unconditional
Your skin may be black
White or pink
You may wear a rag
Or wear a diamond robe
You may be drenched in pain
Or filled with sweetness
Yet my love is unconditional

Oh Lady
Don't ever leave my childhood hand
Since a palm tree is not a good sign
to reach home
I've just marked one tree out
Oh Palm
We've been lost
So old palm
Don't ever leave my loneliness hand
Since a glance is not a good sign
to find the Lady
I've just marked one look out

If you could sleep on the way, in the garden of my soul
With your mute desires falling on my perfumed body

Then I'll turn into a bed sheet, letting myself covered
By sky of your undying soul, and i will keep engraved

All over the garden of my soul,,, It's a private property
Only for your heavenly footprints to enter at anytime

With your thousands of petal eyes of billion lighted hopes
Singing the never stopping free tune to perch my soul

I feel better to exist for you in senses with a flowing vibration
Since the souls met long before the bodies see each other

Like the film's flashback in the dark rooms of our souls
In spite of all worldly flaws, the divinity plays its true art

Come angelic panacea without any hindrance at any time
To become one, without any separation in my garden of soul

===============================================
Living only today in the mysteries of coming radiant moment
Without saving anything for tomorrow, without wall of torment

For I have totally given myself to the fluttering gift of life
Wearing gown of Gratitude feeding the nook and corner of life

Without breaking your myth and truth but bond of slavery bleeks
Free the mind with wit and humor like a wind touching my cheeks

My poems are my tools, color , and brush to paint a real picture of life
What you see in a family, relations , binding role of an anchoring wife

I stitch the pearls on your cloth to sew our family fabrics woven suits
And beautiful precious handkerchief and socks for our durable boots

The idea of Karma continually teaches us the need to open our heart
Madness is not a terrible thing to do but to enjoy the unknown chart

Blooming flowers, ripened fruits and song of the bird and hum of bee
I want to share all divine joy of everything existing or we hear or see

Her hips drive me crazy
Ebony skin radiant like sun on ocean
Penlike nose affixed glittery rings
Her beauty shines in my heart
Making me be a moon in her heart

And a sun in her breast
Into me I wish you're
For I am enchanted with beauty
It enthralled my wild imagination
As request of love daily pursue me

Into a grazing field I graze like cattle
Being selective breaks divine rule
So I want to embrace all at once
But I wish to be with you always
For you mark my heart with scars

As a tattoo your name engrave
Hold on in this sun romance
I see sparks of stars in your eye
Yes the eye of your heart
Adore me o queen of beauty

For your heart is so softy
And your name so flowery
Never will you fade
But be a shadow shade
Upon me in days of yore

You're my brew inspiration
And my **** for unending notion
Let me smoke and drink you
So my heart feel love adoration

Martin Ijir

Glimpse of water pour from the sky
Slippery soapy waters flow my heart
Lazuli lights transpire your name in my heart
As **** it turns to a plant

You're my only love
Heaven I wish bond us by
Stars I wish shine at the day
Moon should eclipse the sun as we love

So our heart shy in the void of day
As I stripe you upon watered clay
Molding your heart with my name
As you wrapped me with your twin breast

I promise the world to adore you
Like pyramid of Giza
Unending fame our love possess
In ion of time I light up love waves

So our bone waxes for immortality
For our love is obsess with eternity
Bringing infinitesimal sparks of love reality
You're my only love beyond mere mentality

I can't breathe under the sun
Houses sitting on each other
Cool mornings
Doesn't paste my clothes to my body

من نمی توانم در خورشید نفس بکشم
خانه ها روی هم می نشینند

لباسم را به تنم نمی چسبانند

When you smile with your heart

Your blood flush your cheek red

Do not allow any inhibitor

To inhibit your easy life flow bed

Better adaptation to the constant change

Which brings heaven and earth under our head

Pretty dear ! My Universe Beauty ! Never wonder

Where your cosmic eternal secret lies

If the life on earth is temporary dew drop

Let your rainbow fragrance dissolve in the sky

But you are here with divine abundance

To freely hold, embrace and fully open

To receive your heat beats in radiance

How much blessed you are my beloved

To discover each potential new day

To have living sensitive opportunity

To watch warm sunrise together

And to fall in love with you in moonlit night

Without any pride, prejudice , and illusion

Without any pain, insult , and confusion

O Africa delight in blissful glory
You alone mutate many colors
Your kindred bears in their skin
Only you possess this divine qualities

O Africa your voice will be lost without Nigeria
For her giant strides is comparable to none
Her waxing human resources
Is a straw to light up abundant natural resources

O Africa if Nigeria divide
Your voice become unheard
For it will be a festival of no guest
And the biscuit bone of aid will be no more

O Biafra agitators nature wants freedom
But the world makes us a voiceless being
Do you think you will be heard in the comity of nations ?
O Sudan tears of regrets ran-deep

For they are victim of circumstances
O Nigeria wield your marginal division
And beat your drums across vast water and land
Rising your voice to defend Africa qualities

O Africa your fate I fear as I envision
And heard from minstrel lute of God
So I pass my little words across
Nigeria a land that embraces all

Kiss me deep now my lady
As my tongue roll into yours
It releases flares of fire in your eyes
Oh ! I'm lost in you

Touch my body I reply
Onto my body she climb
As I feel her femininity scent
Smear of ******* scream

Her voice releases in my ear
As this love play won't end
Oh, take me !
Deep I wanted you into me

It's first time we make love
As rain pours upon the roof
So I break the jinx of your purity
Yes, there's pain but sweet pain dear

As you enter me
Everything become so calm and sweet
As we sob in love
Oh, sighing as the thrusting goes in and out

Heaven paint our mind
In black and white
That's the secret of holy of holies
Where mortal procreate their kind in love

Today,,,I am as fresh as yesterday
My black hair has a thread of gray

Ten Commandments right in what they say
Love and kisses to all without any doubt or betray

Plant Roses or myrtle tree regularly not only in May
Open your heart to all seasons with Golden Ray

Touch my heart where your finger lay
And Listen to the sweet bells over the bay !

My black hair has a thread of Gray
But, Today, I am as fresh as yesterday

When sea grows stormy, Long prayers , I say ,
Asking for those gifts again my Lord gave yesterday

I dare not move my dim eyes any way
My Lord is in the fields, on the seas, in the winds at play,

A poet is an invisible soul
Floating in the air
Spreading words of loveness and kindness

From the womb of the wind
Spreading sweet breeze in the heart of sufferings
A poet is an invisible soul
A lover a fighter for PEACE

Willing to give you the world

Butterfly kisses in the air

A bow and arrow
I gave the God's hands
And red
I paint his hands and feet
No benches at school
Dad doesn't use pencils for
writing any more
The poets of my country are vanishing...
My mom never grows rice

...به دست های خدا تیر و کمان دادم
دست و پایش را قرمز می کنم
میز و صندلی مدرسه نداشته باشد
پدر دیگر با مداد نمی نویسد
...شاعرهای کشور من رو به انقراض اند
مادرم هیچوقت برنج نمی کارد

His lips leading my lips
Breathing through his words
Gentleness all kindness
An invisible loving spirit
Praising the unknown
Afraid not of the world
You are not alone

Dangerous turn of the wind
Troubling the heart of the ocean
The time has flown conflict remains
Will the waves come down tonight

Eyes danced pitiless wind trembling flesh
Surfing in the sea gods of madness
MERCILESSNESS sea creatures
Loinfishes swimming in sin

Dancing with sea snakes
Misconception of the wind
Fearing the mountains heartbeat
Crocodiles dancing in the ocean

Underneath of the blue sky
Sacred mystery sea cheerfulness of the wind
No spring no summer darken momentum
The time has flown the conflict remains

Catch me with tenderness
Hold me hold me hold me
Till the moon kissing the blue
O slapping my heart with joy

Curse me o curse me tonight
Cursing my flesh o sweet butterfly
A poetic device calming the heart
Bombardment of roses roses

The majestic inner beauty
Will it rain tonight in the garden
Will laughter visiting the moon
Will the ocean sing a loving song

I stopped thinking and
Closed my eyes
I smiled with an ease
I slid off little from the bed

And reached for the moon
Letting starlight and mother Light
Fall on my naked breast
In the silence of that lonely night
To experience the natural feeling
Feeling Free from everything

Everything emptying
Emotions burn still
Life twisted into a Rubicon drill
Things started fading

As a leaves deprived by sun to live
My sojourn end with no laurels
Instead silence stare at me
As ocean turns dry

Sand swallow my body
I saw my spirit traversing
Into a narrow way of glowing incense
Many adore the smoke in a round hut like goddess appeasement

The quest was full of hatred
As my body was stinking
And decaying on termites parvenu
My alluring body gives in to earth deceit

O flesh

I stand with all those who fought for just cause
I give my ink to solidify their spirit
And energized their body and soul
I support their long walk to freedom

And hope they spread like dandelions
Drinking bowful water to quench their thirst
Which shall be hitchfree from slave guards
Please I need water to drink just a drink

I came from a community water is scarce
It is a trading commodity sold with pence
Dirt mud dances as we fetch
Alum so expensive only few can perch

We leech as fly just to get a drop
Ragging with thuds of defiance soul
Carry their cattle to drink the spring as a spoil
****** situation it turns and boil

As blood spreads so we drink
I need a water as a sink
Please come to my community and make a drill so we wouldn't be sick
In long run life it will save and stalk

Give a simple drop so we can cook
For years I feed on fruits that are poison
Cut in diseases of fluke worms
And guinea worms drag for a feed

They chase for spaces as they soul rely
I am a living dead my body reply
Waiting for last drop perhaps it may revamp as it rain
My foreclosure day might be dark

Please a water might sing thousands of song
For if I give my soul away I hope my message will reach many and touch their hearts to give us a drop as gong

I walk on pathway full of dust where injustice plays the gods

Youthful tears
Caressing the rain

Heaven's eyes so bright
Fulfill their daily dreams
The pathway of life

The youthful tears
Singing unending song
Beauteous lily-flowers
Love to dance in spring

Bumble bee
You buzzed into my life
And everything i used to be
Became so sweet like a mermaid at sea
You made everything fadeless
You wrote rhymes into me like a poem
Played my heart like a musical notes
Set my heart ablaze
And left me dazed like a youth who is Crazed

Bumble bee
You occupy space
Though you wrote my agony in syllables
You make me describe your absence in parables
You wrote your name in my heart
Now i bleed blue
I bleed you
If i choke on love
I'll need you
But every time i look
You're gone
Gone and left me like a stream flowing in tears
Bumble bee
You promised to Blossom
I let your flower grow in me
I kept you in my *****
So you can bloom
The love was there
But you never had time to see
I planted my emotions right into you
Even though i can't mend my heart
With plastic tapes
I'll sit here and wait
So one day you can come in to stay
Forever with me
