Back in the Days
Little hands covered in fine sands Interlocked, joyfully swung back and forth Shoe-less feet deep in the soft earth Brown glossy cheeks lifted in bright smiles The playmates reply to Adanna's cry It's playtime "Who is in the garden?" A little fine girl, Sulia, draws the lines Shallow trenches bordering six boxes A flat stone she throws, it falls in a box Lifts a little feet high, jumps and sweats Hops on one foot, the playmates watch It's playtime, who's out for a game of Suwe? Bose, bring o...
Triumph of the Virgin
~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~ I thought he would be the missing piece of my puzzle. At the dawn of our acquaintance I was his idol; loved and adored. The sun rose from my face, And sets in his heart. The moon strutted in my smile The stars danced in my eyes. The journey of a thousand miles, Was just a stroll to the stream. When his eyes looked into mine, And mine into his, And we walked chest by chest, Shoulder to shoulder, Head to head, Fingers in intercourse like the socket and the plug, The Universe pa...
Sunset in My Village
It’s been quite hot in our hut Laba, the dog, laid lazily near the clay pot Koko, the cat, curled up near the fire Smokes from the burning timbers dimmed My eyes, as I made our ornamented soup Of crayfish spiced veggies and smoked meat And then came, this radiant tawny flash Tiptoeing to the doorless entrance of our hut Oh! And up there in the pregnant blue sky Was that orange fiery ball, glaring and bright Struck me with a vortex to stay, to watch Am I seeing this yolky sphere the first ...

Out of Love
How long does it take To fall out of love Tell me! How long does the night Take to fall off the heart I wish to know. Working endless hours Amassing more gold Fulfilling all goals Building more dreams Burying the thoughts of you In the depth of the exertions Watching you resurface In all the vissimillitudes Why won't you go? Skedaddle, backspace, delete From my list of hopes! I'll try! I'll cry! Till you fly! Totally emptied And drained of all of you. #poetry #HelloNircle #NircleC...

Have you read "Throes"?
A heart-rending story of betrayal and hope. "A good mental health is true living." Her story goes... "Put her to breast!" The unconcerned midwife appeared to be giving a command rather than a request. But was she supposed to be requesting that she breastfeed her baby? Arike looked at the tiny creature in her arms curled up like a lonely cat, searching for love and care in a mean world. A very cruel world that she had found herself in. "I can't breastfeed it!"

Consistency is the Key.
A wise man once said "consistency" is all you need in writing. From scribblings, to writing, to inspiring others, we shall never give up. We have a mission. To uphold the pen against the sword because the pen is definitely mightier than the sword. We shall carve our niche and make great change in little ways.
