IFUNANYA

While the trees dance gently..
To the melodies of the winds of sanity..
Let me, in you, get lost in this trip..
To the grassy fields of insanity..

Begun with the lustre of a smile..
Made in the valleys of care..
Mountains go to the moon to seek advice..
"What will happen when she's no more there..?"

The eyez of sheer passion..
Glittering through the fortress created by hurt.
Fires of desire scourges the trees of doubt
In the forest of my reflex thoughts..


Ifunanya..
Anointed to steal this heart..
Kept in the gardens of Solitude.
Ifunanya.
Did fate decide of this path..?
In the midst of dawning incertitude.
Ifunanya.
Will our cares erase the tears of yesteryear.
and take away the fears of another tear.
Ifunanya..
Will the elders in the village of wisdom..
Approve our journey into the forest of love's kingdom..

See me through the eyez of friendship..
See me through the eyez of the sun..
See me through the joys of tommorrow.
These torrents of affections blows me strong..

You came by my way,
the other day..
Beauty made itself manifest.
In the aura of the amorous fray.
Started in the classrooms of yesteryears..
Divine..
Discreet..
Designed..
To sweep warriors off their feet..
While my tots mope around.
Looking for salvation..
On fallowed grounds..

And while the feelings of doubt linger..
I have opened the gates of the fortress..
Created by the mistakes of my past
i have mortified my spirit to drink from this calabash..
Containing the palmwine of your sweet tenderness..

Let me then take you to the lands of Obi'm..
Where giants live, bathing with honey..
And make our hearts conquer in a bond..
Indestructible by the strongest and the most cunny.

Lets open the curtains of eternity..
And make constellations marvel..
I will make you the infinitesimal..
Custodian of the sun, moon and stars..

Then you will know..
How much you mean to me..
In drought, in rain..
You are the life i see..
Ifunanya.........

The Bliss Of Hamattan II

The morning chills, with frozen burns ...On my skin, As hair strands reform.. Erect like soldiers armed with guns.. As the yuletide hits me with scorn.. The Chilly haze of fog now smiles ..On my face, In white powdered plight.. The winds disrespectful, now plies.. Strong torrents, in freezing delight.. The roads now sings the songs of praise.. As buses and sleek cars now race.. To hinterlands, built with thatched roofs.. And villages, with rusted roofs.. In rustling sways, Christmas relays.. Its rays of hope, on frail mankind. The birth of Jesus rings for few.. As many bask in randy screws.. The hymns are sung in sanctuaries.. Of different lands, in continents.. His birth created the estuaries.. Of salvation, and death to sin.. In timeliness, the Christened day.. Blooms rays of hope for the derailed.. The winds plays the chords in yon fray.. With reflections on hymnal trails. The looney tunes of Christmas sounds.. Now speaks volumes in hearty thew.. C...

++Constellations++

One.... two... three. in constant increments, we began the fire that merged two worlds together. "Analysis check" was the phrase I evoked in constant scrutiny of these raging magma in my veins. Our meeting was a constellation of fireflies in space. in which we drowned subconsciously, but somehow evolved into amphibians. that could adapt to these changes terraforming our minds into colonies of insanity. Your eyes is the gate to a world simple and beautiful. Sometimes I question the nature of my reality in your absence. because reality is when I’m with you. Your hands is the highway to all things tender and poignant. Sometimes I get sick when I’m not with you. because your touch makes me blue. I won't try to fight these soldiers of affections assembled in my mind for a war of wit and guts because they will surely prevail. Instead I will lead them on a course to victory in mind, body, spirit and soul. Because I think I've found that mis...

Frailty..

My heart is prone.. Fragile, a biscuit bone.. To emotions.. It can't afford to be thrown. Into the dungeons of misery.. It can't bear to be blown.. Swept by the hideous gale.. Bereft of all sense of reasoning. I asked my soul.. "where is thy victory upon the hills of sorrow? Is thy fate the merchandise traded upon the uncertainty of tommorow..?" My heart is frail, weak, it may fail... To recognize.. The importance of existence... Because, as a lonely soul walks in the valley of tears.. He becomes immune to life's worries and fears.. I know not if the sunset will be blue.. I know not if love is sweet and true.. When fragments of betrayals litters here and there.. Coming together to form a formidable force your soul can't bear.. Do you flee or look for ways to become free.. Free from the chains of stagnation.. Free from the fetters of feelings unrequitted.. Or remain bound, hoping you will be discharged and acquitted.. This heart is weak.. An emotional freak.. ...
