My Fairy Tale

If I Cinderella be,
On the clock you might see me
Dressed in glass shoes to a ball,
Only then will midnight call.

My! Just where could Cindy be?
Who oh who does glass shoe fit?
Now I find my precious queen,
Cinderella goodness me.

Now Aurora if I be,
Hair as bright as sunshine gold,
Lips that shame the red red rose,
Sweet little princess Briar Rose.

Reared in the woodcutter's hut,
Away from Maleficent.
Why oh my! Disaster strikes.
Now Aurora sleeps in fright.

Belle oh Belle, my precious dream.
Trapped by horror, my! Don't scream.
Now in love with hideous beast,
Gussy princess to a feast.

The spell breaks and beast is free
Now a Prince how can this be?
Every fairy tale there is,
Happy ever after is.

Diary Series; Capture the moment

Image
Tribute from the children. The moment we received news of your death, our world caved in, the seams of our hearts came undone, we died within. Sleep eluded us, we laid awake all night. If we could write a story about you, dear mother it would be the greatest story ever told since the beginning of mankind. Words are not enough to tell how much you meant to us. Your image still fills our heads. I zoned out. I thought of my own mum back at home, would I say these things too when she dies? And my dad? And my brothers? My only sister? Another Story in the Diary Series; Miriam's Diary.  Click here to read . I needed to walk but I just sat there listening to the drowned out voices of my friends as they sang a song to their mother. I remember all the times they made jokes on her, or complained bitterly about how tiring she was. She was the last thing they needed in their life. But, here, now, it’s different. And they’re not faking it. They really do need her. They do. Peopl...

She said she wanted just to say "hi" and after we talked for hours and more it became a problem to say "bye" He said he just wanted to see my smiles, but we would then hold hands and walk miles. She wanted just to talk and talk we did until it wasn't enough she wanted more. She said she does not like hugs so we shook hands but as time passed it was not enough any more. we just had to get more so we hugged for seconds and it grew from minutes into some thing that looked like a cuddle, but the affection was still not enough, so every once in a while we would give each other pecks on the chick and it was nice and all but we wanted more, so we kissed once and again and again.   It was cloudy and windy one lovely evening. Even a blind man could tell that the rain was coming, the power was out and she and I as though we were opposites of a magnet came closer and closer, she wanted to cuddle, so we cuddled and cuddled until our clothes left our bodies ...

Diary Series; Miriam's Diary

Image
It's August 15th I see a lady, she looks frail and sorrowful lying helplessly in a hospital bed. I could tell by her countenance that she is drenched in depression. I was prompted to go to her. I held her hand and said "Jesus loves you ma'am" she smiles at me; a warm and charming smile. I smile back. I give her a hug, then spend more time with her. We chat a little. I lead her to Christ and hand her a tract. She promises to read it. She has cancer on her left breast. She would recieve chemotherapy.  I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Miriam. I'm five. I'll be six 12 days from today. I have cancer too. My doctor says I have 8 days more to live. I pray I see my birthday. Peradventure I'll grow taller, or even bigger. They call me little Mira. I know I'm not just a little girl; I'm a big king right on the inside. I'm confined to the hospital bed. My pain has intensified. The wounds and sores have increased. Most times ...

What's Past

Image
A step in front leaves it all behind When back, it stays with you With it, all prospects are blind They never get to come true A day with it is like a night with no stars Where, you don't get to see what's ahead Even while looking up and forward But only beholding the darkness around you It is a companion, one so troublesome Who doesn't wait out the storm But comes with the storm And you may never move away, even when it comes Yes,What's past is gone and for good But you've got a mind to rule Either you stay mourn its departure Then someday scream mea culpa!mea culpa!! Or look ahead, preparing for the future. Written by Daniel Etim Model: Nimi Ngiangia

The Grand Delusion

Image
Who remembers that famous line "I am a sucker for love"  Well I am not. Naturally I believe in love, like most of us do, but you see, unlike a lot of general ideas, notions and beliefs, I have other ideas. Don't get me wrong, I know how it feels to be in that special person's arms, how it feels to be embraced and caressed by that person. To hear their slow breathing, to perceive their unique yet confounding fragrance, to be touched by them in the least sensitive places of the human anatomy, yet feel so electrified by the gentlest perusal. Yes, it is an amazing yet frightening emotion. Not many of us have ever known that feeling and the sad truth is that most of us will only get to feel that way a handful of times in our short existence. Personally, I am still holding out hope against hope that I will be turned to a moron again. Yes, that's exactly what that emotion does to the human brain and mind. Yet, this time around, I am going to be a hardworking, b...

MISSING SCHOOL GIRL

Image
I cry, I cry but who does hear these tears? the wind, oh the wind I look up in despair. This unending nightmare is more than I can bear. But all I do is stare, but my heart makes a wish. I look but I see not I listen for that holy call the part where I yell freedom at last and goodbye to my hurting past. Could my day have grown past? Could my night have long last? If it be the light of dawn that I may perceive again. With fading hopes and visions my dreams they fizzle out. With only little provision this might just be my last. I cry in the face of destiny I stare in the face of hope. Now left in teary lingers how much more can I cope. A virgin yet a mother a maiden yet a widow. My voice; it screams for help My heart; it burns in tears. Oh! how they cut my skin My flesh is now for dogs. Oh! how they eat me daily just like a bowl of pods. I cry, I cry but who does hear these tears? The wind; they mock me daily the bird; they sing my doom. The days; th...

Miss Take (Part 1)

Image
When mama asked Sam to go to the store opposite their house to get her baking powder, neither her nor Sam knew their life was about to change. "I'm doing homework, mama” Sam had replied. “I'll cut your mouth if you say that to me again” Mama retorted. “Will you leave that seat now and go get me baking powder before I make you?” Mama said, her voice a whole notch higher. Grumbling, fifteen year old Sam closed his note to obey his Mama. He stretched and yawned as he stood. He had been sitting for an hour and some minutes. Sam was one of those teens that went to school because he had to. He didn't hate school, but he wouldn't say he love it either. In fact, he thought nothing of school. He just went because he had to. He had one year left before graduation, then he'll head for college. He looked at his wrist watch, the one his girlfriend, Jane had bought him when he turned fifteen. The time was 3:15pm. His girlfriend, Jane, for his birthday, had ...
