MARYAMA(THREE) BY: HASSAN IDRIS

Dedicated to Maryam Yaseerat Sulaiman

If love was God, I would have
surely searched for another God
in you in this journey of love
shall I purify my soul with
your incomparable love.

If I should be a love drunkard,
I would have surely drank
from your ceaseless love
and intoxicated my eyes with
your stunning beauty.

If I could request a death
warrant from God, I would
have warranted my soul
in replacement of yours in
the kingdom of God!

If I could turn the day to
night, I would have made the
day night and ask the moon to
be a shade to your radiant
and becharming beauty.

If your love should serve
as bleaching cream, I would
have happily bleached my
heart and body with your love.

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.
