WHISPER FROM THE MIRROR!

-



No person can stand and stare at the mirror 

without hearing some form of whisper, 

Nobody can stand in front of a mirror and walk away 

without the mirror giving you some words of advice...

How ugly and how fat you look lately, 

the mirror will suggest to you, very politely...

and talk to you like a friend. cause the mirror sees you just as you are. 

Nope, that suit, and that dress fits too tightly.

nothing can be hidden from the all-seeing eye of the mirror...

yes, the mirror is your one true eye: your conscience becomes the voice to the mirror, 

while you stand there as if time's standing still.

time to hear the whisper from the mirror: 

the mirror is your one true friend, 

that never uses flattery on another friend, 

but just plain language a friend understands.

Fewer people in the world today, would dare venture outdoors, 

if they heeded and believed the advice of their mirrors.

Yes, You of course. I’m talking to you... 

listen to the whisper of the mirror, 

and you will never go wrong...

Love, hug and embrace your mirror every single day 

before you venture outdoors: never forget, 

it is you who needs the mirror more than she needs you?

MY BABY.... SHE'S ALL I GOT!

Feelings, in whatever mood matter sometimes.. . If I must open the window of my heart and let you see the real backdrop behind this narrative... this is it. After being let down by my first daughter and after we've agreed for her to meet her little sister for the very first time... I was very distraught. She withdrew at the last minute. I went to bed with a very heavy heart. I believe the Spirit whispered inside my sad heart these sweet words in the dead of the night. I tossed and turned as I began to listen to my heart, comforting and propping and lifting me higher than I thought I could ever climb. Everything else is history after this amazing encounter of wrestling with these incredible words and lines in my heart. Waking up the following morning was nothing but a formality as I began to smooth all the way to my last verse. Yes, yes... She's My Baby and She's All I Got ! Reflections, realignment, retracing and recollections of the life spectacled usually incognito to the...

BETWEEN THE EARS!

  Between The Ears! Hearing in a newborn baby, is one of the earliest activated senses... even before this baby could see. Words get spoken out and start to reverberate around the head and get trapped between the ears before they make sense to the brain. Babies, learn to interpret sign language and by reading lips ahead of understanding the language spoken in their homes. Is it not amazing and refreshing that we learned to smile after seeing our mothers demonstrate their warm smiles and mimicked them joyfully kicking with all fours? Between the ears... Our North and South Poles... sustaining our lives through balanced intelligence. It is hard for me to believe that the balance exerted by my feet originate from the water level maintained between my ears. Nobody understands Trigonometry more than God. Hello. Our bodies and beings are 100% mathematical and 100% Physics. Between the ears... In case no one ever told you this… not even your teachers. Every single pers...

THROUGH HER EYES!

Reflections...  O for the Power of the Written Word! It only takes a single word or two to build a castle in the air. I cannot thank God enough for blessing me with endless words I can configure into any form at any time of the day.  In this Poetic Love Rendition, I leave it up to you, my reader, to make up your mind. What in God's world I'm on about. Enjoy!  If you've been reading my works for all this time without subscribing, you should be ashamed of yourself! If you feel my writings build you up and encourage you in life, what are you still doing?  Subscribing to my Blog and sharing it with your friends; is the greatest favour I will ever ask of you. I spend a great deal of time and sweat when writing these words of life, just for you. I'm not complaining my friend.  God bless you.  Through Her Eyes! The way she smiles and the way she walks, all designed to fascinate and mesmerize my cool. The way she talks and her royal looks which say, I am all ...
