A love journey

Let's travel on a journey
Far away from home
To a place where its just us two
And fill our hearts with merry
We'll sing with birds and fly with kite
We'll build our castle made of sand
We'll touch the ocean and climb mountains
We may touch heaven too
Our hearts and mind united as one
And many more untold
The birds will hum, and rivers flow
They'll sing a song for us both
We'll dance around the fire place
Beyond the horizon of the setting sun
We'll tell dark tales of terror
And then hold hands in fright.
We'll always be together
Until the day we're old.

Tasting tear drops (part 2)

Image
Continued from   part 1   Then one day she met Tom and they became friends. He was a junior and normally such friendships were short-lived because people begin to say things and you tend to think they are right. But not them, Tom didn't seem to care about what people said, and she didn't have friends so no one said anything to her. Tom was working wonders so we welcomed him into our family with open arms...dad absolutely adored him and so did I.            Their friendship blossomed into something beautiful and every weekend they ate at a particular Chinese restaurant. Tom bought her flowers every time he came to visit and soon they started talking about the future, I was thrilled and inspired, my depressed sister had finally found her Prince charming, and their love had finally transformed into something beautiful, oh, the power of love. They both graduated from college and began dating, she quickly found a job and so did he...

LISTEN

Image
Listen. To the tale of my mind The sound of hope. The voice of truth You can discern Only listen. Listen. To the memoirs in my eyes You better envisage And let your heart descry I guess you'll simply grok Only listen. Listen. To the whispers of my heart To what I might not say It doesn't cost a thing Solely save the stress Only listen. Listen. To my utterance for help. The voice that is denied. Why wait to respond. Abate all false remark.. Only listen. Listen... And only understand. You ought not speak a word. But heed my dashing phrase Rather than arbitrate Only listen. How pleasant the world would be If people only try To hear and comprehend Rather than just reply Only listen. Poem by: Joy Ngofaa

Tasting tear drops (part 1)

Image
Tomorrow, it'd be second August again and Mary will go out to China town. She'd buy herself some beautiful Chinese lanterns and all sorts of decor she can remember. Each year, they become less because of her amnesia. Then she'd stop by her favourite Chinese restaurant and buy everyone sushi. Dad will help take out everything in the garage and she'll set up her decorations, it had become some kind of ritual, one that only both of them understood. She'd set up dinner table for two and she'd place two seats. When the clock strikes nine in the night and the star lights are in place, for some bizarre reason, there are always star lights in the sky on the second of August. Its as if even God understands that the night lights are important to her. She'd dress up in a beautiful dinner gown and come downstairs, and dad as always, will take her by the hand and walk her to the front door. Once she was outside, she'd hug an imaginary figure and point to the sky....

Extracurricular Activities (Part 2)

Image
Continued from  Part 1 Your head is still spinning round and round and round when you come back into the class. You ask everyone of your pupil to sit in their chairs and put their heads on their desk. The school is against such system of the kids idling away while they could be doing something, but you need the break, you try to convince yourself. Your face is buried in your palms on the table, your eyes shut tight, but the images keep flouting. One and two and three at a time. You keep hearing the voices over and over again. Lifting your head from the table, you put your hands over your ears to stop them from coming in. But they aren’t there. They are buried in your soul. And then you hear his voice, your life coach’s voice. He’s saying;               ‘ex-you were in the past, is- you are in the present, t- you will transcend to the future, that means to ‘exist’. But you want to do more than just exist. ...

Why you should check the expiry date before you use any product.

17th April 2016 There she was, lying helplessly in the emergency unit. All through the night she had seemed confused, disoriented and even loopy. The scene from last night was still playing in my head. Hospital staff moving up and down in a disarrayed manner carrying trays and muttering words disguised in medical terms. All I could make out of those terms was neuropathy. The doctor had reported her blood sugar to be 420s, even that didn't make sense, Maria was not one to ever forget to take her medication, at least not with the frequent resonating sound of her alarm reminding everyone that it was time for another insulin shot. The medical examiner had requested custody of her insulin vial. That vial I remember was given to Maria by Mrs Briggs our next door neighbor who was nicknamed Mrs Pharmacy. Mrs Briggs had a collection of drugs, or let me put it this way, there is no medicine that you wouldn't find in her drug cabinet. Not that she was a pharmacist, probably she derive...

The Phone Generation

Image
I can't stop imagining how lucky this generation is. Yesterday night, Chigozirim came home with one small thing she called a phone.  She said I can call her with it whenever she is not at home.  She even said I can call Obioma, my son who lives at 'Obodo-Oyibo' far far China. I tried it and it worked. Obioma was happy to hear from me and we spoke at length. So this morning, I came outside and met Chigozirim with a rectangular shaped object, she had her attention concentrated on it, so much that she didn't notice when I walked in. The fresh breeze of the morning encouraged her concentration so much that I walked in totally unnoticed. I called out to her and she responded saying she was watching a movie. I was amazed. "Wonders shall never end! So this generation has finally made a television  ðŸ“º of this size, that you can even hold in your hands. Wow!  This is amazing." Chigozirim laughed so hard,  leaving me bewildered, wondering what exactly promot...

Sunset Lily (part 1)

Image
It was a cold rainy day, Celia decided to look out the window over at the backyard, she watched as the rain fell upon the grasses, as the huge mango  tree standing at the centre of the yard danced in array to the rhythm of the rain as it poured upon  it, the leaves swayed in amenity with the wind. The mango tree was all that was left of the trees her daughter Prov had planted 25years  ago after her first agric class. Prov was only 4 years old  then, with enthusiasm burning in her eyes. Celia felt a wave of déjà vu creep through her spine. As the rain got heavier, she became immersed in thought. Her daughter Providence is now grown, she had sharp piercing eyes, dark skin and perfectly lined face. She had a striking resemblance to her father. Everyone had thought it was the ordeal that  followed the disappearance of her father before her birth. Even though she had never seen him, she embodied him in  attitude. She produced the tone of his voice in h...
