Come, Ujunwa, let us adorn
While we have the time, the sports of love
Time will not be here eternity
God at length our good will serves

The true beauty of a Sunrise
is not a moment that can be captured,
The beauty is the rising of the sun
It's the sequence that leaves you enraptured.

JUST A LOVELY WEEKEND
THE IRONY OF LAUGHTER

The Song of a Soulmate
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

You my mind for so long have occupied
...

Every moment spent with you is like a beautiful dream come true
My favorite place to be is inside of your hugs where it's warm and loving
I love you with everything I am, and more than anyone ever thought possible
You may not be here with me... But thoughts of you are always in my heart
...

Dawn is a golden petal, knitted in delight by rising sun
Sweet to behold, causes tears to dry from the eyes of a mother's son
Yet, superfluous as it seems, that such a phenomenon be recognized in daily Sun
The breath of fresh air in its wholeness makes me want to write a song!
...

Born was I a slave, Cuffs in arms, Chains on feet;
Born was I a slave, victim of circumstances;
Born was I a slave, to till until I fill;
Born was I a slave, an outcast, supposedly banished from grace.
...

‘T was a fateful eve, when the songs of the birds were heard no more;
The tongs in flames must have wagged for ages, casting core of ore;
Then there came the golden silence, to all and sundry put ashore;
The vehemence, the eloquence, the decisive implementation of lore.
...

Stories untold, recklessly abandoned;
Lives short-lived, thrown about at random.
Well, here is one I choose to tell for a ransom;
Hoping that somehow, its deals will save some.
...

My God! You are but a beautiful piece of art;
Your set of thirty-two, an asset to uphold;
With vehemence you sway the hip like a dart;
In pursuit of a zigzag flying jet up the hood.
...

‘T was a beckon for mission;
Thought I saw a vision;
But could as well have been envisioning;
Silly daydreams and nightmares.
...

It begins with one Question
Sealed with a Ring
The single last line of the quest
A soft smile to broker with the Spring!
