Ugomsinachi

UGOMSINACHI Ugomsinnachi, The rthyme of my heartbeat Maker of the rain of my Soul Ugomsinachi, the nkporo maiden Who triumph my heart in love The coconut without some water Yet so fine and sweety to behold Ugochinyerem, the one that God gives to me Hallow be your gracious name written in me My rainbow, my star of love in the dark tunnel My feet wobbled at the sight of your beauty Can the stone bear to listen to my heartbeat For your love and kindness? Ugomsinnachi, With you my life is complete and loving My heart burns in your absence in my eyes Ugomsinachi, the maker of my love Ugomsinachi, the eyes of the gods of Nkporo Ugomsinachi, the Nkporo maiden whose beads Men struggle to hold and walk along for peace But I pour the waters of my soul to wash your feet Ugomsinachi, I will love you till the messiah comes Ugomsinachi, you are my star and hope Come into my heart and watch it smiling You could see and behold the joy and excitement There in because I fell in love with you Ugomsinachi, Together we shall sit on the table Not on the floor like my forebearers, To eat, not with fingers but with knives and Forks and breakable china plates like a civilized Couple from the golden city of Nkporo. At that moment the sun itself shall be your friend. Ugomsinnachi, Your images in a larger corner of somewhere In my heart, and even that part my mother shared with me before birth. Am honoured and famous to have someone like you in my humble heart. (C) John chizoba vincent
