Culinary Inspiration To the place of my birth, the land of my birth. To the tribe that I hail, one I love so dear. Amid ethnic groups, languages, region, religion, color etc., there lies..........my Culinary Inspiration. A Nigerian food recipe native to the South South Eastern Nigeria, the Cross River and Akwa Ibom States of Nigeria. One of the Nigerian cocoyam recipes made with grated cocoyam, water yam, cocoyam leaves and periwinkle. May I introduce to you: Ekpang Nkwukwo (Food For the gods)...
Smile I wake everyday with water in my eyes. I get on my knees to pray but my words won't come out right. I look myself in the mirror and I don't even blink; like an Egyptian Mummy muttering no words, I stand there starring at the Sky. I attend a Concert despite the humor am not thrilled. "Is it just me or someone has lost his urge to smile?". So they say. "No! It's just you". I'm not a Psychic but I can hear your thoughts. No need to say it. I see it; it's written all over your face. I can in...
Begin to Serve When I was created it was for what purpose? When I sing Psalms and Songs where does it go to? On my bended knees who do I look up to? The one who's always Faithful even when am Unfaithful. I was born to serve! So I give thanks for your wondrous deeds; the Sun, the Rain, the Moon, the Bliss. Who am I that you care for me like this? So much blessings everyday that I get swept off my feet. I look to the mountains from where does my help cometh? From you! My Omega and Alpha who ha...
M.O.N.E.Y. It's used as a means of exchange. It's acceptable as a means of payment. In the absence of trade by barter it supercedes. What am I talking about? MONEY!!! Asi nno inemesit, asanga ye iyaresit, adian idongesit. Nso ke ami ntang iko mbanga? OKUK!!! ( It gives Joy, brings Anger, ensures Comfort. What am I talking about? MONEY!!!) I know little or nothing about about its History but the impact it has on our lives remain a Mystery. Not a day goes that I do not wonder Of what is its ...
Depression Life has caused me so much pain I can feel it through my vein Will I ever go back being the same? Wish the rain could wash away all my tears. Oh yeah! I do really deserve a break Everything I've come across happens to be fake I pray at the end of it all I find out where I belong Until then........I'll keep my faith strong. Ami nsikede Okon! ( My name is Okon! )..........and this is my story. I wake up everyday with tears in my eye One question hits me as I look to the Sky "Why was...
VENOM OF THE TONGUE To make it in Life be humble. So they say. But what about those that have iPhone? Life is not balance. So they say. Peace today tomorrow Clash of the Titans! So when you wake in the morning thank God for Life. Time waits for no man; no go waste time for mirror dy observe whether you fine. Call me a Motivational Speaker after this, e no get wey e touch. But know this "When you lack Data, that's when you know you have what it takes to become a Motivational Speaker". I have a ...
THANKSGIVING With reference I enter into this Holy place. A Home like no other full of Mercy, Love and Grace. "A day in your Court is better than a thousand elsewhere". So the Psalmists would say. So I cherish every moment. I value every moment I have to spend with you. You take care of me, look after me, bless me with benefits. What more could I possibly ask for? Like a tree planted by the Stream side, a City built on a Hilltop, a Candle shinning in a dark, a light at the end of a Tunnel........
