Asabi

My eyes are weak But it wouldn’t close Only when it beholds you Oh! Of special birth “ASABI” Are you heading to the stream? If so I can help to lift the water pot Upon your head My eyes are weak But it wouldn’t close Only when it beholds you Oh! Of special birth “ASABI” Are you heading to the farm? If so I can take the cutlass And you take the hoe My eyes are weak But it wouldn’t close Only when it beholds you Oh! Of special birth “ASABI” Are you heading to the market? If so I can take the yam And you take the bush meat

David, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
