Some of my Favourite Poems. This is for poem lovers. They are always simple and short but carry so much meaning...deeper than lengthy words because they allow our thoughts and minds to wander as we try to paint a perfect picture of what the message carries... **Love For Fathers - Deserved.**

No matter how you spin it, our roles cannot be classified* *We are many things and we try to be everything* *Fathers are incredible beings with enormous responsibilities, abilities and potential* *Cheers to every father in the world saddled with so much and bear it with grace* *Cheers to every father out there consistently giving his best to his home* *Cheers to every father out there who feels underappreciated* *We don't do it for the glam, we do it because we feel* *Happy Father's Day to each and every one of you* **There Is Hope.**

I don't know and I'm tired to think that far* *Amid all our rubbles, I know there is hope* *There is hope for humanity and there is hope for Nigeria* *There is hope for our leaders and even the citizens* *It would kick into effect if we can first try to be better humans* *We can't give what we are not or don't have* *Change the way we think and we would achieve more* *Change the way we see things and act selfless, then we can turn this sinking ship around* **When I See Your Face...**

Why? Because you got me captured* *Forever printed in my heart, you are always in my heart, featured* *When I see your face, all my worries and fears are banished* *Because I've been loved by the best and I am perfectly in love with you* **Unheard.**
