Eyes have stared and observed many,      
My my mind reckons her a first choice
I will free hire her if I set my company,
Pay her monthly salary twice or thrice
Our vacation will be at Berlin Germany,
Or go winter at Zurich to fun with ice

She wears an Abaya with a veil,
And lowers her head in shyness
She promises not being a Peril ,
Turning me into a mere jackass
I will hang myself onto a ceil ,
If my weak heart she will toss

She calls me via a video call,
And shows me her mansion
My room with a single pall,
Me and my brothers ration
She does shopping at a mall,
Mine at the bazaar location

She does a diploma in  Medicine,
While I do bachelor in accounts
She knows all about the quinine,
I deal with  finance statements
She is sweet to me as a serine,
I appreciate her with my vents

She reigns an Igbo descent ,
She glows with no lotion
I guess she is mere prudent ,
As she drains my attention
I pray for her to be permanent,
Worthing my full devotion

I will love her with no wahala,
I am just a bon ton fella
I write my words on an Ola ,
In India they call it an Olla
She occupies my heart's hila,
When with her I am in a villa.
