ADIYE JE IFUN ARAWON (POEM)

*** ADIYE NJE IFUN ARAWON***

The beginning,

Cluck! We dug the earth for worms,
My hiccupped crow earned me a corn,
Though same feathers robed our naked form,
You clawed and pecked me with scorn.

The Sequel,

I am Robin, you are Nightingale,
I sing morn awake, you lull night to rest,
If dawn quenches my thirst with dewy ale,
Would not dusk cuddle you in sunset's breast?

The future,

In the wind's sea floats the falcon and hawk,
The sky, a sprawling estate for all,
Our wings need not wrestle in a lock,
Brotherbird, let's soar this celestial hall without a wall.
