Stranger In The Night #2

let me tell you a story

come one come all

and listen to my tale of love

with a little pinch of suspense.


i met a stranger in the night

on a rather dark night

i couldn't put a name 

nor a face to her.


but mesmerized i was

by her melodious voice

all i ever heard her utter

was ''good evening''


three days later

my stranger in the night

came back again

at night.


a friend of mine

walked up to her

and told her about my poem,

my affections for the stranger without a name

nor face.


walking up to her 

with the little courage i can muster

"can i put a name to the face" i asked


and yes!i've seen the face.

and it made my heart picking a race

beating erratically against my chest.

running without rest.


she is what you call "An Angel"

ebony of utmost perfection

black clad beauty.

the best of presents are best covered.

An ideal muslimah

with the perfect mix of humility,beauty and calm.


my stranger in the night went home

but she is no more a stranger

we meet to part, 

but we also part to meet.

her name is Aisha.

and i believe she is gorgeous!!!!!!

The Great Fire

Consuming all in it’s path Sprinting around with energy abound Shapeless like an ameoba Burning twigs, hides, fur and skin Destroying everything it touches Licking the ground clean Insatiable, more victims it want Leaving desolation in it’s wake Making landlord homeless And the homeless hopeless Fiery body of destruction Grey, colourless and white ashes Marking it’s trail Melting iron And boiling steel The great fire consumes all And spare none. I seek refuge in the Lord From the evils of the fire.

Keys and Strings

Astonished I am By thine comely grace Lush green leaves swaying in the breeze All hang their apex in jealousy When you walk by The midday sun is it as hot As your cool beauty. Awesomeness is your birthright Omidan, Arẹwà Ọmọge míì. I don't know how to play the harp I'd have sing to you With the strings. And I can't play the piano I'd have made you blush With the keys. All I know is lines I hope my lines are strong enough To reel you in. To me, Mine and mine alone. There is love in sharing, But I can't share my love. I'm the sole proprietor here.  Ridwan Akinkunmi Àjàgbé. Abu Marwan (Sophocles)
