Am a poet: by Hassan Idris

idrishassan035@gmail.com Poets!  Are philosophers with tinted ink, Craving out graves from the Bosom Poets inks soar thunderously! ditching out sorrows from distressed hearts Poets are magicians With Magical pens pening down anything pen able Poets are extra -ordinary, extraordinarily causing tornados with the gravity of their pens. Poets are prophets, Prophetically Prophesizing with pens ©Hassan Idris Benue, Nigeria Writes from Benue ,Nigeria

" I wish I could write "

“ I wish I could write “ I wish I could write for you, how the great Umar Yogiza's Pen flip up pages, portraying love and simplicity! I wish I could write how Maryam Gatawa’s ink, Pierced through my heart like the way a needle pierce through the hands of a man How Adamu Usman Garko's literary works, wakes the dead from the grave, unleashing them to sing 'Galala' to the amusement of his Pen I wish I could, I could write how Mujahid Ameen Lilo’s Pen, sings the melody of a caring brother washing away my sorrows I wish to write of Sulayman Ayub, how his Pen advocated humanity,and how it analysed the loop holes of this generation How Maryam Mayner's pen inspired my fallen soul, and how Sultie's Magical pen washes away my sorrows like Alomo bitter I wish I could be a writer, writing about humanity and creativity! © Hassan Idris July, 2019 Hassan Idris hails from kogi state, an Igala by tribe.

Meeting Kongi

"Meeting Kongi" To stand before you To be charmed by the comeliness of your white hairs Breathing in your green forest Swimming in the splendour of your light Chanting 'Happy birthday Kongi' My hand taking in your hand  That scribbled Nobel deserving works And presenting this over to you Is my dream coming alive. For I know I will emerge With streaks of your light Guiding me when I set forth at dawn On my journey on the Pen Path. ©Mujahyd Ameen Lilo Read at Wole Soyinka's birthday in his home. Mujahyd Ameen Lilo, a secondary school student from  Kano, is the regional winner of WSICE.

"Shakespheres's pen *✒

"Shakesphere's Pen" "Write me *of* words that *repair* the *soul* of a dying lover Write me Write me not of those cattapillar words that *uproot* the gleaming smiles of grasshoppers Not of the ones that *float* away from the hearts of marauding vampires of Mexico Mujahid write of those lovely tales that *spark* from the celestial world And of those  bodies beclouding it Write, write of mercury and how it gallivant the utopian world of venus when it outshines it smiles to earth. Write me of Shakespeare's pen how it taste, how it *portrays * Romeo and Juliet How it *remedy* the hearts of melting lovers © ✒ Hassan Idris Benue, Nigeria
