DEAR JELLY FISH

Image
By



How can we match along in the sea?
Can I be identified among your mannered colours?
Written in my palms are your routes,
When the tide shines on your skin
My mind is taken back to mother’s face.
Can our friendship be explained to the moon?
Even if your abode is salty to my tongue-
Can I be free to keep in touch with you?
You have robbed me of humanity love
And gives me nature’s future tale.
Are you the star in the ocean or the satellite?
How possible can I swim with you without
Being robbed of my sanity here?
Does jungle justice exist in the oceans like here?
Does your mother really care about your wellbeing?
Do you also think about the future?
When in trouble, how do you react? Calm or furious?
Tell me dear jelly fish< I care to know more of you?
Our lives hold together a thin cord which is fragile
And thick but never can tell of its breakage
When death emerge from our subconscious mind.

THE MASCULINE QUEST FOR GENDER EQUALITY BY MUNIR ISHAQ

By
Whether it is sheer societal inclinations, or rather my singular perception of happenings, I must admit that the feminists agitation for gender equality should not be justified from all spheres, in the sense that, while it may be justified on the basis of the barbaric treatment women are been subjected to by some inhumane customary rules, however such injustice should not be advanced as covering all spheres of life, for the reverse is indeed the case. As such I propose it is high time the male gender also clamour for gender equality, largely due to the one sided treatment meted out to males at the expense of females as obtained in practice. Speaking from my own personal experience, I attended a program few days back, when it was time for contributions, I raised my hand as did some ladies present, the master of ceremony however refused to point me and proceeded to point all the ladies seated round me. I had to stand up, clearly and visibly showing myself to the MC before he granted me...

BREWED CHEMISTRY

By
From unwary jokes And banters With eyes fixated on another I saw you as just a funny friend Then chemistry set in Unconsciously so, Whirlwinds of passion swept by Here I am with you. I lived in denial She did too No, she is my friend! I whined! No, nothing would brew! She exclaimed! Then came the flame which illuminated our synch Lost my defense Her wall threw open My innate self wanted a friend A gist partner Someone to bring out my talkative self Fantasing playground jumps With our offsprings Whence they see Dad and Mum As troublesome lovers Our affection grew From chatters and laughs Half-speaking, half-singing Then love painted the scene For our fairy tale Here we are, Helplessly in love Like we've got wings to fly Up there to paradise... Babe, its not over With the sweet, There is the bitter With the laugh, There is the cry A new horizon set With storms coming Before the final lap of professing "I do" We ve go...

ARIYIKE

By
Arike One day, I will gather our kids and take them far away on a beautiful tale of how love held me sway on it's adventurous sails I will serenade them with stories from yore days about how unwary jokes morphed into flames of amorous desires I know they will laugh hearts out when I tell them about the timeless times I rehearsed fine lines hoping to sweep you off your feet and make brightly-coloured, winged things swirl and tumble in your innards. The very lines that fell in beautiful places in my head always flew away like freed birds when i needed them And then I will look away sheepishly like the fool I was First, it was a tingling then I got a feeling even caught my heart singing And you were the lyrics I dilly dallied but this feelings tarried Till my heartbeats synced in melody with yours When I wasn't looking love fell on my heart And when my heart was in faraway lands love came knocking Olarike You are more than wha...
