An Ode to the Sun (song of humanity)

                    - Austin G. Ogbenigho Odiri

Now we had come to kiss the sun,

No one had respect our song

Songs of humanity,

Many days peep’s the child

To aged,

Together whether smile or loathe

He may,

May I request you a day?

A day long and dead,

A day silent as strength,

A day solemn and sweet,

A day I can’t remember

To forget.

I tell you Sun, my son has aged,

He has sworn to go back unto days.

Am like now a falling flower floating,

I can no more make libation

He is now fretted of what he see he is.

Sun, working, working is young,

Human, human are never infant

There are grey,

The more endeavor the greyer.

…and artificial beauties enshroud us

Of nature pure fracture picture

Of we beans.

More grey falls as rain

Son, have mercy on your days

Bury all the plays,

And let’s resume these songs

From where we all stopped, 

Never to fear again

Cause we are phantom of peace.

And it’s the reason why we breathe.
