You And I Poem by Obodokasi Ade'etem Agbor

Let's go to the sea
Let's go to the ocean
You and I,
Pick some periwinkle
Pick some shrimps
You and I
Sit on wet sand
And bath in the yellow streams of the sun
You and I,
Let's go to where the rising of the sea
Meets the falling of the sun,
Where the misty winds are interwoven with the gloss of your lips
So that they purchase the taste of 'salt in sand'
Let's sail on the bended backs of crayfish
And break our vows on crab shells,
You and I
Let us proclaim our love
For we are before the ocean,
Before that waters that tie the world together.

Anade, since I have met you
My life has become a walking miracle.
