We Have Not Seen Uzoamaka Poem by Emeyazia Iwe Chukwudi

Like play like play
Day had turn'night and
Nights had turn'days
And year had turn'years
We had looked
All the nooks and crannies
Yet no mail man or woman
We had prayed and fasted
Yet no signs of you anywhere
Whether alive or dead

We have not seen Uzoamaka
No friends, no letters

We have not seen Uzoamaka
My Brother and my Hero

We have not seen Uzoamaka
How I wish'you'd just come home
We love you
We miss'you

We have not seen Uzoamaka.
