I look for my first love
Poetry
She is everywhere
And when I found her
I could not see her polymathic mentor
So I search again
Hardly could I see one
Not even in my country
Or in Africa
And perhaps beyond
Lost of decades in search.
Weary times wasted
And lo one
I found Robert Lee Brewer
World first polymathic Poet
I ever knew
In the Piece
"List Of 168 Poetic forms for Poets"
Oh I didn't waste tis I scribbled mine
Then to be like him
Perhaps I did
And of course I did
I brought polymathic Poetry
Into Africa
A continent where poets
Says poetic styles and forms
Now outdated and Moribund.
Then I look my mentor
Robert Lee
What a honor?
Who knows I brought polymathic Poetry into the continent.
And Nigeria once again snatched history
By the head
I think
I love it
O polymathic Poetry!
