REQUEST

CATEGORY

just different

At this age, I write to reach

Because my life has been to teach

I just want to share the word

So please remove my name

From that prestigious Leader Board;

Please continue to print me the same.

Those I have been waiting for

Now froth the black poetic shore.

Oh, I will continue to teach poetically

As long as the Vibe will post me;

Just know that each pen is a reality

From the divine wisdom’s sea:-

May it continue to froth your sage ways

You’re one’s we’ve waited for, umpteen days.

Let’s give honor and praise to Poetry Vibe

For keeping our Poetic Village alive!

So, don’t worry, so many powering words

Are coming from those yet to be heard;

So don’t leave us hanging here in despair

We need those words you have hanging there.

Pen them without any perceived apprehension

This Poetry family has your wanted attention.

While this poem may not be one of my best,

Just accept it as an old-waning Griots request.
