Have you ever wondered What brought the reason Have you ever wondered What brought the season God, the one and only Sending the ultimate emissary God in flesh, the word in flesh Flesh as man, a gift to man You want the reason? You are the reason He made you as a salt Seasoned for greatness He sees you differently As a royal priesthood A peculiar people The scripture says 'Be ye holy for I am holy' He sees you as an holy nation His purpose was predestined For us to have eternal destiny By the shedding of his blood He purchased us all Have you ever wondered What brought the reason Have you ever wondered What brought the season He came as a child Can you imagine God came as a child From such sublimity to such lowliness From heaven to  a manger He's filled with no guile Yet forced ye him  To be punished like a thief Saying that, Makes my heart bleed So vast is the ocean of his knowledge The Elites h...

  T here are times, I just wanted to shut the door, close the windows, off the lights and phones I want to give up. I wanted to be alone, isolated from the nitty gritty of what my life entails. I wanted to run away from friends and family associates, even God's people gathering. What kept me in the Universe was my hobby, and the feeling that He his watching from upthere.It became a social therapy for me but only for a while.However, loneliness isn't the deal for me, I was Single enough. The pages of the books I write couldn't contain me. I could literally hear my writing voice speaking to me before I wrote, am  critically insane, it hanged on my shoulder waiting to voice out it's opinions as soon as my hands held a pen or even a pencil. The Anchor is getting deep and I'm going deeper. My thoughts keep changing they danced before me and talk as if am just a spirit that has not been reincarnated. My feeling, thinking and even reading went supernatur...

Before writing about this piece, I didn't what title to give but I thought on what Forgiveness should really be like. This life is a teacher,we all know that,or should I say some of us do,  but everything and everyone seems to be in a school 🏫. The Basic One teacher was unavoidably absent and I was asked to substitute for her, even though I had a marking scheme I needed to finish and submit before the end of the day. I grudgingly accepted the request. I already knew the students in the class, I knew them by their first name, but teaching them for a week made me know them more. Adesewa is one of the brightest female students in the class but the thing is, she talks too much. She literally wants you to hold on to her every word.She obviously loves her Mom, 'My Mom did this…., My Mom did that….' are the songs she sings to her classmates, who had no choice but to listen, unless I said 'stop making noise!'. During the sport break,I continued working on the...

Hey guys, I'm so sorry have not being posting.I really wasn't intentional but I was caught in an intensive teenage program which required my physical and mental presence.I will say that it was an amazing experience for me. I personally learnt a lot and impacted as much as I could in just the little time. I had the opportunity to share my poems and educate these future leaders on expressing themself through writing(especially poems) even though it was organised by a religious organization. This teenagers were grouped into four groups; they were graded by their knowledge from the WORD, games, vocational chores, drama, poetry, songs and the list goes on. I'm going to present their poems to you group by group.Tell me what you think about the poems, grade them if you wanna and please give me your feedback.It will certainly be an encouragement.😁 Thanks. Group 1 Value of Fruitfulness The joy of  a Farmer Is to reap good on his farm And the aim of a plant Is ...

This is a book am currently working on.I might change the title but I don't know yet. So I posted an excerpt.Enjoy😍 STILL BELIEVING.  You should have thought it well before you changed your mind, we had great dreams,.. I need you, please deny him and lets be together’ ‘We are together Dame, we are married’ ‘Look, accepting me for what I am is the most remarkable decision I have ever made, His dealings with me made my love for you enormous’ ‘I can’t believe this, are you saying you never loved me’ ‘No Dame, don’t get me wrong…’ ‘He took my parents away, my sister too, what did I gain? Answer me Chris!’ ‘Nothing!’ ‘When I had you, I felt it was going to be okay but instead , He placed his claws on you too, all of you are possessed but you just don’t know it!’ she went through her wardrobe and turned back at him ‘You used to be the level headed one in this relationship but now I can’t say’ ‘Please Dame, keep your voice down, Emma is sleeping, you don’t want her wake he...

Oh Great and Mighty bulwark Why do I feel so wack I studied hard so that I won't be a quack But the path under my feet still cracked Shallow minded and recalcitrant Morning to night still jacking My brain snobbishly shacking Hell and dammnation! No help was rendered with few information No hope seems feasible for this generation Unless, the Lord have mercy We are shadowed with endless thoughts A depressing mist made us void After much thinking Worry in us, boils Giving steams of deperate faith and hope This malmercied fellow sought out But ended in gallows It's sorrow was measured in galloons Lord, have mercy! Our adversaries are legion They are like spiders, those creepers! They block our ways With giant rubber threads Soiling our heads,our hands And our clothes with webs of delay Some induce poisons With venoms of dark scorpions That could scorch us Like the red hot sun With no ozone layer. Oh Lord! Make us roaring fire Rekindle your powe...

You know time flies Many notice the clock But few understands the day From the night Those who don't wander aimlessly While those who do, Feel an unending impulse Like it's tattooed on their soul At times, It keeps them up at night It often stops them eating regularly It's given a slang 'handywork' They have friends but logical ones They have fun too but with video games Ahahahaha! Don't worry they are not socially awkward But sometimes pretend to be They understand the sun and it's personality They try to work on the moon But sometimes end up Lost in space Claiming a brain rest They once liked the night sky Seeing moon having the spotlight Yeah, But now they prefer the sun This is what they say, 'The sun is also a star' An extraordinary one indeed A star that leads the moon.

    Being locked up in your own world gives a meaning to what's known as isolation.Whereas, being open, blows your mind out of isolation into social Oblivion. A fate far greater than migration.Endless words of peer pressure is imbibed through every post, pictures and comments.This pressure only exist to those who wants it and believe in peer group .Being social creates the meanest wave to our minds and our brain works on it, sometimes making it work overtime.You know the non-stop chatting and internet surfing, keeping up to the latest trends, follow up on friends and probably stalking a crush or a 'wannabe' Friend using various social devices and application.This is what we do and more.        In those days ( days you ain't yet born), you'll would have heard people having or making friends from the streets, bus-stops,church, social gatherings, anywhere.You could probably recall your parents tales on 'how I met my wife' or 'How I met my best friend...

      On that day, when Laide will look into her husband's eyes in front of the congregation in holy matrimony declaring her vows and saying "I do". She will be sure she loves him with her soul.       Our country is falling apart because of the deterioration of the home, the home is falling apart because of the deterioration of the marriage while marriages are deteriorating because husbands and wives do not treat each other properly.       Before you ever love anybody physically or romantically, you ought to be in love with his or her soul.Between a husband and wife, physical love should not function alone but should get permission from the soul.Anyone who has no love in his or her soul have no right to love physically.       Dating someone merely because they are physically attractive is wordly.Somepeople call it "falling in love" but I do agree with those who call it "jumping in love" 😁😁. So what is Soul Lov...

   Why do we get married? Apart from the African culture,norms and Religious beliefs, marriage is accepted as the most fufilling phase everyone needs to or must experience so that a guy could be called a man (this signifies a sense of responsibility) and the lady a woman hence, mother (and if you're not a mother, you ain't yet a woman).     Some people get married because of their age or let's say childbearing age limit, some because they want their own family, some because they want to feel among, some because of relatives or church elders matchmaking, some because they love one another and can't live without one another and so on (The latter reason is mentioned a lot.).These reasons seems 'reasonable' but I think there should be a more tenable reason.     The reality check is what happens after the few years spent together like 5-25 years together. You know, when you see really old couples 👴👵 walking together, holding one another as if there lives ...

Is it time? Is it time to dwell in the past And forget the future Is it time for me To dwell in this cieled house And lay a claim and host Is it time for me To grieve alone And dwell in solitude Is it time for me To search for help from the Hill And embrace this crooked ways Is it time for me To crave for a soul freedom To be free from this hell hold Is it time?

So we got our hearts set on a lot of things, we've got hope for better things. We wanted to make a name for ourselves,we wanted to make a change, while some wanyt to make changes.So, we made plans and set them in motion but unexpectedly we had setbacks, some call it 'accidents' but really they were in form of inadequate resources or help rendered and whatever you think might have caused it. When people say 'don't lose hope', I used to believe it's a bunch of shitty word(don't mind the lingua) any way I do believe there are better words to say which should include offering up worthy solution even if you're trying to encourage.Well that's just me.We all need some good piece of advice because it does a lot of good. As I was saying,losing hope doesn't help it only makes you feel less(and not better), If you believe you are going to make a difference in life, a change or changes then, you just have to keep pushing.Believe me, it will be ha...

Today's post speaks a little about me, incase you don't know am the girl with the gap tooth. Having a gap tooth in the Western part of this world signifies some nice things and make believe feelings neglecting the medical facts. Having a gap tooth, brings an attention to your face, make you self conscious and when you smile (O my God) it's like the sun has come out to shine 😎, so the rest of us have to use shades (lol).So, supernaturally it attracts people to you and they favor you, like rending assistance. (Abeg make una no go put diastema for your front teeth just because say I talk am o). So enjoy this little poem from moi. She's got locks on her hair Piercings on her ears Zits on her face Her smile is forced With dimples on her upper cheeks She has an Hippo facade With an attitude of 'I don't care!' She constantly testify But her carefulness Is covered by layers of thin wool When she is sober It falls like rain drops On a take awa...

You need to realize that being liberated from a jungle mix of undignified words that has being set to tear you down, to cause you worry, to make a puncture on your self esteem is not a straight forward success, the path is actually convoluted and narrow.But, having an intuition or foreknowledge of what's to come makes you more prepared. However, some of us are "fortunate" enough to have experienced some little samplings of what to come, we offcourse, at that time don't think we know what's really happening or what the deal is, but we know that before they start talking there must or would have been some enviable progress you've embarked on or about too.Have you ever wondered why some people are just so stubborn about their ideas, dreams or the way they live there lives, that's how they react to it.Remember this, "No matter how carefree a person is about what people say,that doesn't mean that they don't think about what's being said...

There are undeniable flaws formed as a result of our obnoxious nature of being desperately curious,wanting to belong,to be accepted by our peer group and even the society and the environment.This flaws was not with us from birth but it was one of the things we developed when we started growing and when we became of age it became an habit, in this case a bad one; somepeople dignify it by calling it a weakness, we are opinionated we can call it whatsoever we like. When I listen to interviews ,read stories of various famous, successful celebraties,On Air Personalities,Pastors,CEOs they reveal some particular habit they have and confess,how it almost ruined their lives, businesses and relationship with people.I begin to wonder, 'I'm not the only after all'.This is true, You ain't.So, breathe! Most people blame their weaknesses on trivia and important things, giving them the kerf to make excuses.However excuses do not help,it makes us less congruous and assertive.If so...

We now live in a world where premarital sex isn't an issue at least 'it's not your body' they say but that's for another day,taking drugs has become abusive, 'living your life' is no more the deal but trampling on other people's right and gain is an ambit beginning to selfish greatness and getting really connected to diverse wealth and little lose of which they know, creating an atmosphere prone to fraudulent acts and crime.The young minds they say when idle becomes the devil workshop, it ain't the young now but the old too. Our generation thrives from a legacy left behind by some so called Emeritus Elite, who claims and believe in their own words that, 'the best is yet to come'. Oh! how sad this revelation influence a negative reproach that, the worst is yet to come.Taking all kinds of alcoholic beverages and drinks, drugs with unknown origin prescribed by quack roadside doctors and retail sellers from various gang and bandit marketer...

Struggling with who you are and what you want to become, is a diverstating blow we receive each time we get in contact with that thinking. It's not something we often want to think about, it just happens. Somepeople say know your limits, know your worth,think big, act revolutionary, be tenacious,think different, dare your self.Yes! These are all inspiringly motivational,they are like to a deer panting for water, they are like the rain that falls on the soil,they are like the sea breeze so soothing you could fall asleep.They are pleasing, but the real truth is we just want to hear them over and over again, it's what we've always known and seen,some we felt.Alas! It is what we subconsciously,always want to hear.Like falling down and applying a balm to a wound and taking a scoop of ice cream to calm our nerve as if we are little babies. Knowing what you are goes a long way to building your self esteem, believing in your self, and standing strong when tough times arrive, ...

So, I wrote this and I wanted to share,so tell me what you think.I do welcome criticism.Enjoy  There are no limits to what our minds can explore or to what a good trivia question should entail if targeting an audience of both young and old. According to Jen Kennings, he said that 'maybe the best text of a well composed trivia question is how you feel when you don't know the answer’. This seems true, we are human and not robots, we have curious mind and we seek answers the best way we can.     A good trivia question ought to be enjoyable whether you get it wrong or right. When you get it wrong, it should create a ludicrous effect when you become aware of the correct answer, this implies that, these trivia questions should start with interesting facts thereby making the questions untedious.      However,when a trivia question is boring this could be due to too much simple questions,so why not construct complex ones b...

I ran away from love Quosh! Quosh! Were the beats of my shoes On the hardened floor Down the path That leads to Leavethemby I ran away from love It's not that I don't want it It's that I don't need it Especially from him The shadow that crept Like a dream to my every sleep A string that plays On the chords of my heartstrings A breeze that blows At evening tide With snow that falls At Winter time I ran away from love As high as my wings could fly Above the to be skycrapper in China And far above the Mount Everest The Cupid shot at me While l made him my shield Hence my comeuppance 'Please! Let me be' Was my dictum But this fueled him more I ran away from love I created argument I sewed discord I sought faults Errors aren't left out He wasn't perfect Nobody is anyway Stil he pursued I ran away from love The magic word he spoke Broke down the defenses 'I'm sorry' he said Even when not guilty 'Is...

Words bring life Words give life Words kill life Words wound life Words make life... Words are Spirit Breathing lives they are And they move And act not as vodoo Words are dangerous Body shadows they are And they creep And act as daggers Words are endless Little minions they are But they accumulate And act as Giants Words are worthless Rotten nuggets they are But they penetrate And acts as pollutes Words are feelings Abstract emotions they are But they fly And act as birds Words are promises Great dictatorial they are And they authorize And act as feeders Words are requests Ceaseless rhymes they are And they demand And act as commanders Words are beautiful Pretty flowers they are But they attract And acts as nectars Words are sweeteners Honey coated they are And they diversify And act as flavours Words are healers Poultice concursion they are And they help And acts as cleaners Words are powerful Successful beings they are An...
