Poet~Today ~ Ahmad Isah Sabo
Pix credit: Aminu S Muhammad OH BELOVED Oh Beloved! Your love owns a vast abyss In my heart, It grows sturdy like a mountain of metal, Planting its roots in my veins like a tree. Oh Beloved! Your magical enchantments On my being, Weaves a cocoon of love where I hide, To ponder on the sinew of your charms that bind me to you Oh Beloved! Amidst the radiance of moon In my dreams, I see the glints of your ardent trinkets, Your luminous face beams a cascade of light. Oh Beloved! How can I portray your beauty In my poems (?) When your elegance is rare And so delicate to draw on the canvas of my heart Oh Beloved! What is this wisdom woven around you? In my garden, You walk in graceful steps like a peacock, And I see not the blossoming of the flowers but only you? ***** Ahmad Isah Sabo is a budding poet from Yobe state.
