Lounging in my office

Lounging in my office All alone am here; Lounging half awake. Idly listening to the wind Blow through my window. One tired feet on my laden desk; A picture perfect symbol of tired. Me and the wind had a talk; He was howling all his woes At globetrotting a thousand times. I was silently bewailing my fatigued self. We both have been overworked for the day. Mine has come to a pause, His is still in play. I envied him his freedom at first But then I wondered aloud, What he saw in my state to feel bitter about. He told me in his whooshing speech, How he has no pause from work; Can’t even grow tired without dying. Work is his life and recurring hell, And there’s no end to his walks. Although we had a grumbling talk; A ghostly, refreshing opening of the mind, And we envied each other our states. We both knew, deep down we can’t  Switch places or swap fates. I know I’d rather work hard half the day  And have the time to rest like now, Than trot the globe like the wind Lounging apace i...

Bow the heads

​ Bow the heads We bow our heads As if in worship As if we are in church In religious piety We bow our heads All day in contemplation No care to changes around us Oblivious to all but it We worship it so much We can’t do without Staring into its rectangular face We bow our heads at our phone AdeayoPoetry

Tropical rain

The call of the rain The much awaited tropical rain Pitter patter in large rain drops A final squeeze from the dry tear duct Welcomed to cleanse the land Let all that whither stand In concert with the windy rain A welcome relief from the self-inflicted pain Of dust clouds and coughs And catarrh streaming down the cuff Welcome the call of the rain Now quiet, like its in vain Or I hear the sound amiss Is it so wrong to miss The cold and goodly rain That can wash away africa's pain? ©AdeayoPoetry

Love, Hate

courtesy of vectorstock Eternal love, undying hate Both are sweet and sour You choose which to taste Love to one might be dour Or perhaps a twist of fate. Hello hate so sweet Or love groaning in pain Unsatiated heat Burning out the shame I feel a rumbling defeat Imminent! It finally falls All forms of love replaced By the sweetest of all Hate and anger highly placed On the pedestal in the hall I loath myself so strong For the love I feel For one so wrong I know not what to feel When love was still young I fail to repent on time And bid it ride along Love and loath combine As I tread this path along Yet I knew you won't be mine But I trod on with you I hate my weakness, emotion That made me such a fool Sticking still to the motions Even after knowing what's true That we are not meant To meet at all in the end Nor till beautiful death Makes us parallel Even if we tried our very best It was fun while it lasted Least its a story well said I'll still be sober like I've faste...
