POEM: A School..Like no Other

By Akinlalu Sharon

A school that gave birth to the best,
A school so convenient to be,
A school full of knowledge and peace,
A school I’ve always dreamt to be,
A school filled with great passion and talent,
I mean a school like university of ibadan,
A school I got admission into and I was called the idan gangan,

Or is it not plenty in the ear,
I mean the first and the best school ever that your school mates have always dreamt to be since forever,
A school like indomitable, LIKE NO OTHER,
A university with a beacon of excellence, a shinning star,
A university where minds are expanded and futures are shaped from afar,

A university where you find a community that’s vibrant and bold,
A university where diversity is celebrated and individuality is told,
A university with professors who are compassionate and mentors who care,
A university with individuals to guide you on your journey and help you reach new heights,
So embrace this new chapter of life and all that it brings,
Embrace the challenges and let your spirit align with all the goodies that it has to give.

POEM: TIME’S UP

When our day darkens
All light and life sucked out thoroughly
Series of thunder claps
Tangle our Knees

POEM: HEALTH

They say happiness will find you
But what happens if grief finds you first?
I know life promised you roses
But what if you get pierced by its thorns
What happens when life pushes us to the edge?
Do we call it quits?

INSECURITY

I am in constant isolation with my fears
And entrapped by my past
My mistakes have kept me distant from my goals
I am in a total meltdown
