Three Big Oh

Three big oh, 

Quite a milestone, 

As a temperature, it is very cold

As a verse, it's Psalm 30,

As a number, contains basic human rights

In French, its 'trente'

When I heard the birds singing the cheerful song,

I stare at the moon from my window

The misty breeze and the wind so strong,

Pushing the best things of life my way.

It's time to reflect, seeing the beautiful works of God in my life from birth till this day and what's yet to be

Many thoughts in my head

One conclusion, it's that juncture of my life

When I look back and think

How quick I've grown

How times has flown in a blink

It's that vantage point of my life 

From where i get a view of the amazing things

That life is going to bring forth

A life of happiness, happiness with God.

Many waters have flown past the bridge but my ridge still up with God

A day worth storing in my memory,

God, let love rule my heart every single day,

Take all sadness, give me excessive smile to give to many

Grant me the strength to contribute my best to global change.

Three big Oh!, What a phase,

Beginning of finding sweet success

In many new and different ways

As i buckle up and brace for a ride so exciting,

Full of happiness and thanksgiving

God guide me, shine your light upon me and lead me

May this day be a special one to remember,

God bless me.

My Wire-Line Story

My Wire-Line Story

The world rolling on a grove like a rope on a wheel (sheave wheel)

The block we all need is up there

Who’s gonna lift me to that height (lifting block)

As I roll into my well of fortune (Oil-well)

I jumped into determination

as I prep for the challenges ahead (Job Prep)

putting strategies in place to achieve my dreams

as I spot for the top (Equip. Spotting)

many above me just like many are below me

but fighting my way to the top

should not be rigged (Rig Up)

Sitting on the winch wishing (Logging unit)

when will my dreams ever shake hands with reality?

Thoughts rolling through my head like a drum on motion (Cable Drum)

Thinking of the depth I was before picking up to this phase. (POOH)

When I get stuck, I keep on pulling till I pull free cos I find myself in the reel rolling to the future (Stuck Pipe)

Many hurdles on the way, but their location I ignore (CCL)

Backing off was never the plan (Back-Off bar)

 even when I can’t give a clean cut (Chemical Cut)

Advise and encouragement from colleagues

piercing me through like bullet has been the key (Perforation)

Oiling my best into every task for success (Lubriplate)

Failure has never encroached cos I plug-off fear (Plug Back)

No matter how far I go I carry my dreams along (Gun Carrier)

We being together as a team doesn’t mean we can’t break-off

But as long as we have pipe wrench

we will surely make up.

ROSE

I am the garden of happiness

The place where love began

The garden where emotions is heard

The shelter of cupid

Hibiscus is my sister

Just like sunflower is my brother

My color is the definition of love

Am more lovely under the dew than the sun even when it makes me soft

When I left my mother

I still remain their order

I mend broken hearts

Many who know my value cherish me

The human emotions adore me

Just the way I put smile on their faces

Some say am fragile, soft and tender

But am handled with care

Am the first among all selection,

I am a flower

I am ROSE.

DEICATED TO MY MUM

MRS. ROSE OMATSEYE

WHO AM I?

I was born May 5^th 1947

Am one in a million

My family is ten in number

I have four handsome boys

And seven awesome children

Grace was a gift from God

That made Rose filled my life

Thou I made two choice

They remain one

Cos am the decider

My first was Endurance

I had a lot of dreams

By faith

They became mine

My name will never lost

Cos I never left my family

But God knows what’s on my mind

The beginning was rough,

Just like the middle was tough

But we laughed at the end

Even though I didn’t see the end.

MY HEIGHT

Many are above me

Just like many are below me

The time line is half the laps

Silver jubilee I have crossed, heading for golden

But not yet gotten a medal

Many says it doesn’t matter

But my vision not yet on motion

How will my dream and mission

Fall into position?

I need no mentor because am a vector

I have touched many sector

Just like a doctor

But the cure is half the way

Patience and focus they say is the key

But doors need to be pushed for goals

Life is all about stages and phases

Just like places and our faces

I don’t compete like the teethe

That’s why I bite what I can chew

Even when I have no shoes

I still rock the show

Success sometimes is stress

Am sitting in front of the press

Telling them how depressed

was my past years

Ten-fifteen years is time for successful change

Am set because am due for the stage

 If you are in my range

Come let’s rove

I have faith and hope

Just like the way I cope and float

In-between the top and bottom is the middle

That’s why many struggle just to have a place

Even when they have no pace or trace

I don’t follow trend

Because it bends my blend

Even when I have no blender

My style remain a spice

I have no voice

But my echo is louder

Just like the thunder

Cos in your drums, I remain your drum line

The world is crazy like we are mad

Even a lad says he’s a dad

Just like a coward says he rules the world

I will never part my path

Because my home is what made me

Just like my origin makes my gene

My root is my truth

I love not because am lost

Because it’s the beginning of a successful journey

The sun rule the day

The moon rule the night

Just like God the supreme ruler

He who praise, will be raised

Men are like tennis

Just like their testis

Women are like oval

Just like their ovary

After sex they become ex

Don’t ask them why

Cos they can’t calculate to find their X

Many pray to win

Even when full of sin

The last gift from God to man is death

So wait for nature’s waybill.

Omatseye Junior.

THE ME IN ME

 

In my street

Where am strict

I dreamt a dream in my dream

Even when I can’t sleep in my sleep

I found my night in a night

Thou the birds are far asleep

But twitting never ends in my drums

I open my eyes the dark is my sight

Just like my back

My hands are long

Pride made them short

I go to class for class

Cos class gave us class among class

In my quietness am loud

Cos of the queue and crowd

I hit my chest for their quest

Cos is not a stress

For every thought I thought

A thought yields a thought

A thought off their thoughts

Cos they can thought my thought

I was a teenager in my youth

I was youth in my old age

And in my death am re-born

Cos if sun and moon clashes

I will be the splash

Even when my thought flies

The lost ones flash

But they don’t crash

You close my fault, am your shape

Just like my shoe, you know my pain

Every time I decide

I am indecisive

I have no method cos you are my principle

Pierce my heart artless queen

Death is not a threat, cos you are my grave

I wear you every day

My perfume, always my fragrance.
