With great nostalgia I recount my childhood memories,
Reminiscing the good old days,I long strongly for a rewind!
At cock crow,we form a squad
sleepwalking through the dewed road to the stream. While the the obidient ones run parent's errands,the naughty ones swim their eyes red , what a joy to hear them scream at parents' lashes for late homecoming.
How I much missed dinner time,
A time of survival of the fittest!
In a large tray, stewed rice is served,all strive to scoop more
The slow eaters get victimised
Mama gets to share a fight after all!
Our hilarious outbursts at the witty crafty adventures of Mr Tortoise,exrayed by pa Onigbo,under the admiring eyes of the moon,gave nights a majestic grandeur!
The sweet bitter tirade as we thronged bushy trails, to and fro community school,
Solidified friendship and that is the essence of our communion to date!
