Roses of Glory
Roses of Glory-
Roses of glory tell a true story.
Some are joyfully red
While others are dreadfully dead.
They can be fruitful and beautiful
Or they can be barren and detestable.
Roses symbol love from above,
They are examples of life
And how not to deprive….
The roses of glory
2010 FIFA World Cup
2010 …Here we come
2010 …The world becomes 1
2010 …Based in South Africa
2010 …Bring hope of victory to Nigeria
2010 …sounds of drums… (Doom, Dooom, and Doooom)
to sounds of Vu-vu-zu –las… (Poooom, poooom,
poooom)
and crowd (Y EEEEE ssssss! WHAO!)
2010… the air full of energy
2010 …Though the disappointments of elimination
still
Brings more determination…
For we shall say, ‘we come, we say, we tried’
In win or loss, no matter what Nigeria still
stands!
Go 2010 FIFA WORLD CUP!!!

Birds
Birds are pleasant creatures with colourful
bodies and a beautiful voices.
Birds come in different sizes;
some are little while some are big.
Soaring at the highest point of earth
and singing like every little song
is in their little throat.
Birds, some are very friendly while some are
scary,
birds are lovely pets.
Birds are everywhere even here right now,
Birds, Birds are everywhere.
Uchenna Onwukeme
Morning Sun
Scarlet sunset reflected in the silent stream
Dazed emerald forest still
In this never ending dream
Wind whispers through the grass softly
As the sun’s rays brushes the Earth’s surface
Warmth spreads
The sun’s comforting grace
As the sun slowly appears
Lesser stars show
As diamond shining tears
Wait until morning in the moon’s dull light
The sun rests during the dream-filled night
And still once more
Until the sun returns
Reflected past the water’s shore
