Title: MOSQUITO
Author: Simon Joseph Okeguale
It came again last night
When everywhere was without light
It bored through the old net
And flew in the air like a passing jet
It pierced through the midnight air
With its blood-sucking spear
After patrolling the whole room
It landed softly on my foot
Then it dipped its blood-sucking spear in my body
Sucking off the red juice down to its belly
When it was through with its feast
It staggered and flew back to its nest

THE KING OF THE JEWS
He came to the world to save humanity
He came so He could take away our iniquity
He was born without sin
He was different from what eyes have seen
Then came those whom we thought understand
Those whom we thought would lead us into his hand
They gathered together to plot his fall
Both the chief priests and the soldiers inside the hall
They stripped him and put on him a crown of thorn
They mocked him and looked upon him with scorn
They parted his garments casting lots
Even the thief on his left said a lot
"He saved others; himself he cannot save"
Then they that pierced him
They that crucified him
Set up his accusation written:
"THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS"

Title: Frosty died last December
Frosty died last December,
My closest friend for fifteen years.
We were born the same
November;
Now I can't put down my tears.
It's not fair that dogs should live
Just a short piece of our lives;
They give us the love we give
To parents, children, husbands,
wives.
More loyal than a human love,
More passionate and all-
consuming:
No spat would Frosty's love
remove,
So fixed on me, so unassuming.
My grief is real, my pain is strong,
Though not all would be so
moved;
But I can't think how I'll go on
Without this creature I so loved.

OUR PARROT
Always rejoicing
And never lamenting
This was one of the feature of our parrot
When we wake up in the morning
He will say with a smile 'Good morning'
When we come back from church
He will say with a smile 'Welcome back'
Whem we go to sleep in the night
He will say with a smile ' Good night'
One day we opened his cage to feed him
He flew away and say with a smile ' Goodbye'
