A POEM (For My Ogas fiancee, Maryam) This is a poem for Maryam, for the sea of light that flows across the field of life This is a birthday poem for Maryam the seed of song that grows in Shittus heart the love poem that fills every page of a bards collection. This is a poem for the one that bears the fate of dawn, the door to the house of bliss. II This is a birthday poem for the one whose words build a world for the one whose heart is a revelation. This is also a pot of prayers from the house of a bard: Maryam Two hundred flies never waylay a group of brooms May you glow beyond the lamp of your enemies May you never journey when the road spreads the veil of blood when evil lurks like a hunter searching for animals Every year the kolanuts grace eyes at the market place Every year your joy will bloom like roses in a riverine area POEM II the stories of life are for people who dream beyond the frail sky the earth, this earth is a road for men with toes that crush the stones that gather on the road to the future Maryam Yours will be among the stories to be told to those who dream of taming the vulture that tames the future with its claws Yours will be among the songs to be sang when the orange sun peels its skin in the sky Yours will be the first dream of a passionate poet, the story of love that will span centuries Maryam Let your horse race beyond time ride on as you climb the ladder today to the feast of tomorrow.
