Wall breaker

By

My hands are beautiful
With them, I work
With them, I build
I build beautiful things
As beautiful as my hands

My only unpleasant building
However, is a wall
Built so high
Even the builder could not climb
A wall I painted black

A distance away from my wall
I wonder how I built it
I want to take it down
I should not
I cannot, even if I tried

All of a sudden
My wall cracks
And the black turns white
How it cracked
That, I do not know

This wall will fall
And so it happened
Crumbling down completely
And behind was my wall breaker
He turned my black to white

WRAD: The power of words

Hello everyone! Hope we all had a great day. I did! Let me share with you. Every year, since the year 2010, there is a day to create awareness for literacy, a day to inspire children, teenagers and adults (everyone actually) to celebrate the power of words.  This year, the day is the 24th of February, 2016, today. It is called World Read Aloud Day. It is a movement to show the world that everyone has the right to read. Literacy is a right that belongs to everyone. The emphasis is on the word ‘aloud’. This day is not just about reading, it is about reading ALOUD. It is about celebrating the power of words and being a part of the pleasure derived when you read out loud with others. Please note that this is not meant to be a one-man activity but it is to be done with others. It is a day to read and learn in groups and have fun at the same time. There are millions of people who cannot read; therefore the World Read Aloud Day is a day to celebrate literacy and to take action on behalf of

Photo Credit: Deji Adeoba (I love you gan ni) Hello Deelivians! I trust you’re doing great. I’ve missed youuu 😘 It’s my 25th birthday! Whoop whoop! In the last 365 days, I have come to learn a lot about myself. Earlier this year till recently, I had to deal with a lot of unpleasant happenings. That’s pretty normal, right? Life is full of ups and downs. The downs this ldast year of my life ehn! No be beans. I even had a mental challenge for a while about 2 months ago (don’t ask), but I thank God for good people that SLAPPED it out of me. However, something super duper exciting happened to me early in January though. Hehe, again, don’t ask.  To foster positive thinking and to learn more about myself and make me happy, I asked 25 people (male, female, teens, young adults, close people, people I’ve never met, etc) to tell me what they like about me. I chose 25 because I’m clocking 25,lol. This is a sort of feedback and personal behavioral evaluation. What to do with w

Dear God, how's my mum doing? Let me guess, excellent! I miss her. I miss her so much the word 'miss' isn't even good enough to describe. She has created a void no one can fill. I want to see her again but I can't yet. Do you know how deeply that hurts? Everyday, I have so many things to say to her but hey! she's not here! One year already since you passed away. Worst day ever! How did one year even pass so fast? It feels like yesterday. Dad was just telling you how beautiful you were when you passed on in his arms. The memories of that day are so fresh. I still can't believe you're gone. It has not been the same without you, mum, it can never be. I can't even type further. I thought I would do an epistle, not working right now. I love and miss you, iya mi owon. January 2, 2016 my whole life changed.
