New Found Love

 

By O.A Arowolo

I have promised myself not to love again;
the daughters of Eve had inflicted serious pains

Time love and sincerity are scarce, yes! I know

but these cold treatments make me feel so low,

Years went by, I refused to fall in love,

hoping that one day a true angel will come from above

that will wipe my fears in the sea of passion,

and stop this lingering mockery and allusion. 

You appeared in my skin with intensed rays of light

which make my flowers rise and blossom so bright

cols spring water flows over cave without hinderance,

as beasts of the forest and birds watch this bee-dance,

Whispering in the night brought great succour to my heart;

The rising of the new moon and season come to a start 

You are my diamond; greatly refined and invaluable,

to treat you like a star; I hope I will be much able.
