POEM - Behind that prescription- Zainab M Musa

...Behind that prescription

It seems to be below your expectations,
Lo! It is beyond all your assumptions,
It is neither a secret code,
Nor a sealed communic ation mode,

It is a skill acquired by determination,
A sacrifice made for passion.
It does not look poor by intention,
And not by the doctor's discretion.

It must not be calligraphic,
For it to be authentic.
It should just be comprehending,
To the pharmacist in charge of dispensing.

Never see it as an ill looking manuscript,
What matters is the content of the script.
For behind that prescription,
Is a silent wish for your speedy recuperation.

POEM - The Awaited Lass - A.M TOYYIB

The Awaited Lass

By Abdulganeey Muhammed Toyyib©2017

I don’t know whether you are on earth yet,
But I know you will arise from an egg,
Where you will be selected among millions,
Awaiting a headed-tail to kiss you.

How we will meet,
Where we will meet,
When we will meet,
I am not aware of it yet.
But I know we will surely meet.

I don’t know your melanin score,
Whether you are fair or black,
But I know you will have one
That will express your ultimate beauty.

POEM - FREEZING HEART - FATIMA MUHAMMAD SANI

FREEZING HEART

Heart discovered it's freezing
By snow that is existing
Extinction it's pretending
Angels like demons are rising 
Emotions as soldiers are fighting
Battling with the soul as it's suffering

Pain has been reborn
After it's twin was born
Burnt in a place unknown
By a mother that was abandoned
Caged by a father yet to be known

The heart has been solidified
After it was liquified
A valued being acidified
Trusted those that electrified
With strength certified

Unknown it has broken
With ice it became frozen
Pieces distributed in dozens
Unwanted was proven
