Adebayo Sir Toby Great Poems

  • 1.
    Do you remember a brave girl?
    She has been engaged by parents
    To a man who was full of blaspheme;
    But now she refused to marry him.
    ...
  • 2.
    The town where my father was born,
    In the braveland of the brave-men
    A medical man in his youthful age,
    was popular as Doctor Adenuga;
    ...
  • 3.
    O dream, The Sword of Damocles!
    How long shall you fill past sorrows to memory
    The begone dolours, of falls, of defect stumbles
    Whispering to heart, the lamentable story,
    ...
  • 4.
    If I was born about centuries ago,
    With vulgar voice and full puissance,
    Of beastial gallantry that laughs at woe,
    As who strangles dragons by their tongues,
    ...
  • 5.
    There's a song little babies sings
    on the ease of mother's back;
    even if none plays guitar's strings
    The Soloing are oft loud and wack.

    I've seen an antelope looking for okra,
    He is like man toiling to succeed with his valour;
    Weepings of oppress`d flows as runnels,
    And no comforters to be their channels;
    ...
  • 7.
    The hand of the lord,
    Empty the world and lay it waste
    its inhabitants scattered abroad:
    what to the world befall this fate,
    ...
  • 8.
    Not the dead or lost, I revile
    That I lament and mourn sore;
    Neither regret him gone to exile,
    This sun I shall see no more;
    ...
  • 9.
    Trundling and scuffling around;
    Upon purlieus, hut-tops and facia,
    If thousands rain of stones pound
    Call out, search but none found;
    ...

Henry Lawson Poem
Sydney-Side
 by Henry Lawson

Where's the steward?-Bar-room steward? Berth? Oh, any berth will do-
I have left a three-pound billet just to come along with you.
Brighter shines the Star of Rovers on a world that-s growing wide,
But I think I-d give a kingdom for a glimpse of Sydney-Side.
Run of rocky shelves at sunrise, with their base on ocean-s bed;
Homes of Coogee, homes of Bondi, and the lighthouse on South Head.
