No Sunshine


The weather lately 

Has found a way to

Mirror my mood.


Lots of rain 

Lots of growth

Weeds and flowers alike

But no sunshine.


Because, you,

My sun

Has decided to shine 

On another planet.

  You're light  You're bright  A constellation of the brightest stars  can never match up to the brilliance that is you  You're the evidence of great things on earth  A beautiful flower always in bloom Planted and always watered by the rivers of water  Your kind is rare  Yet a vital necessity  For a vibrant and beautiful world.  It’s a privilege to know you and call you ours  Look at you at the height of your 10yr old self’s dream  Let this be a testament to the fact that your dreams are always within reach May you rise to the skies  Soar through the galaxies  And May they come to know your name May good fortune be with you forever,  May you get that which is your desire,  May you never see the ground,  And only reach higher and higher Ifedolapo

A prompt from the app popped up to her screen “Join a jam”. Normally she would ignore, but today she was curious -she clicked  This was what was playing.  Is this Love? Someone was playing one of her faves!    Very nice. She scanned the environment to check who could sharing the jam as the name of the owner of the jam gave no clues.  Then she caught glimpse of someone underneath the shade away from the path she marked for her walk. It was him.  Yeah, hi...

With a soft, melodious voice and words that flowed like a gentle stream, she could charm anyone who crossed her path. Her movements were graceful, almost like a dance, filled with an elegance that seemed to transcend the ordinary. While many might label her as docile, nothing could be further from the truth when it came to her dreams. They soared higher than the tallest buildings in Ogbomoso and crashed with ferocity like the relentless waves at Nazaré. Her aspirations were colossal, their depth hard to comprehend, but she clung to them fiercely. They were her lifeblood, a fierce flame that propelled her forward even when the world felt heavy. In her heart, she knew that as long as she held onto her dreams, she possessed the strength to conquer anything that stood in her way. She met her fellow...
