King-Woman (Original African Story)
A vivacious whirlwind clothed in skin that would make the Dahomey Amazons green with envy. Born in a time when change insisted on rearing its head. Aigbojie refused to quiver in fear like her fellow Okwu-Esans. She had the flint-like focus of a lion and the tenacity of the eagle. She would see change done, peace restored and dignity restored to her people. No longer would unfit overloads and princely serfs cower in terror as the sword of ruin and destruction swing with imminent foreboding over t...
Reminiscence of Childhood Friends and Playtime in Africa
Memories rose like tendrils of smoke Wisps of breath fluttered in my soul Stirring in my mind’s eye The vibrancy of yesteryears The aura of innocence A healthy bloom on rosy cheeks Benign laced smiling mouths and friendly scuffles Peals of laughter grappled with Carefree days, responsibility miles away Playfulness the order of the day From dawn till dusk, tender hearts spun mischief Ever mindful of whip’s lash A day stamped on my inner walls A celebration of birth, unveiling o...
African Proverbs
A Person Is a Person Because of Other People There’s many ways to say it: “Motho ke motho ka batho” in seSotho, or “Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu” in isiZulu — this phrase roughly translate to “A person is a person because of other people”, or "I am, because you are." This proverb is the bedrock of South Africa’s society, which is rooted in community.📍South Africa, South Africa Courtesy: Global Citizen Photocredit: RefinedNG #AfricanProverbs #HelloNircle #MyNircleFeeds #Nircle...
An Experience Memoir - A Visit to the King (Original African Story)
It was a hot day. I had several bottles of water in preparation for the arduous task. I entered the Castle's gate a novice on the depravity of the human mind. I left armed with knowledge, topmost of which is African as a continent can't be defeated or destroyed. I cherished every information I gleaned from the staffs of the Osu Castle. It was a trip to see one of the best places where African culture is preserved Here are some of the pictures 1st Picture: Jerry Rawlings' Office 2nd Picture: M...

Clarion's Call
The bomb flew past live ears, the word had gone out, Like missiles from a troubled shooter, the way branched out, As feet pitter patter in terror, the opponent sped forward, It’s a do or die affair, this war on supremacy, The mother wails for her child, wagging her head in despair, Sorrow swipes its claws on faces, as sisters scramble, Fathers enlisted, the home is vulnerable, Shutter shatters as teeth rattles, Broken hedges, safety gone, Chaos ran unchecked as the sky bled red, T...
Diplomatic Language
Swapped the people’s right, banter the nations out of sight Exploit the situation, cloaking as foreign investors In reality foreign pilferer Was kleptocracy on the agenda? Make mincemeat of the sheep’s financial system Crippling the economy in glee Like a child discarding its plaything You make nonsense of the currency Put on the market the right of the people Who became serfs, enslaving true princes You came close to exterminating nation states A known agenda for the antichrist’ da...
VISION OF A HIGHER FUTURE
The bowels of Mercy yearns to be unveiled, in a world where Truth as a commodity is not a currency paid on cheap thrills. Where Leadership is NOT in the league of corruption. The souls of Hope which cried yesteryears went to sleep on pallets of subjugation and dreams unfulfilled. Dear African Youths, when will the flames that were kindled Blaze? When will the Zeal for action take shape? Leaving matters to “the government” demand permanent respite. Where is that toughness that made you g...
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome Defines Christmas Christmas is
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome Defines Christmas Christmas is a time when God’s children all over the world celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. But have you ever asked yourself what “C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S” means? “C” means “Christ has come!” Christ is born and is here now! “H” stands for “Hope.” We’re at rest now, because Christ has come, and our hope for a glorious life has been fulfilled. “R” means “Righteousness!” There’s no need to struggle to please God with our...
The Reign Of Euthanasia (A Eugenics Plot)
Mourners trudge in death’s dance Church bell, a distant tune Anguish, maps of horror On faces gone white Like in Hitler’s day. Why sleep ye, o’ elect? Watchers of light, why slumber? It is nigh time for justice And thrones of leadership Mimic the silent grave ‘Cos truth is turned away. Creation groans as another Son of man is laid to rest! ©sailabby Photocredit: Protolifemedia #Poetry #Storyteller #SayNoToMAID #RefuseToBeEuthanized #ScientificRacism #Nircle #Creative #Ni...

Whispers (Habitations of Cruelty)
Equity went on a voyage, it was Thursday No loss day for immoral Another pacto de retro, scrawled Hands extended in greeting When credit account smiled in guile Truth turned a blind eye. Everyone tagged with a price At dawn, a new life shrills Barely was the ties cut between mother and child When malady came for a visit A trip to the physician Verdict grim, parents gloom. A probe let fall, it's no wonted ail The air gossiped with the winds in dark places Credibility reared her head Ve...
A Place Called Home!
A home with no heart A place with no soul Walls' ears gone dull Time holds no significance For grief bleeds dry joy Calling from within man's Worst nightmare. There's no place like home Says the father as he lays Spread-eagle, reeking of Cheap perfume. @sailaabby718822 Photocredit: FB Photos #Poetry #Storyteller #NircleFamily #Nircle #Creative #NircleStories #MyNircleFeeds #Poet #NircleFeeds #HelloNircle #BeUnique

A Victory Parade
It was the twenty fourth year, the eleventh month The sixth day when the cheers of conquerors, Shook the very foundations of the earth, Almost yanking off the tapestry of the firmament. As in the Palace Sushan of old, When the Jews gained the advantage Unexpected, for a day had been signed for total annihilation There's always a but in things like this But in this case I'd like to say it's deserving For indeed prevail they did! The Luminous Ecclessia were basking in the victory Reminiscent of...
🔁 Abby Saila ReCircled: Landmark
Pass the torch, While the flames burn still, The way forward illume, Do we forge the path of our forebears. Breed a new gen with a mind of its own It's no secret that a people without vision Trudge like a restless addict, Falling into a ditch. Speak to me man's thoughts, And why his ways are filled with pebbles, Show me the blueprint of a pallid people Who left behind the details of the elders. In the long run it's a principle, a right Life that's stressed beyond limit, When sneers...

🔁 Abby Saila ReCircled: Rack
Murmurs reined the air the minute we stood Blind to the crows like birds at a rite The die has been thrown No one cast a unique opinion The tunes were up, let the dance begin Doors, shut so the girls peeked, between The walls, indeed have ears In a rush, they left, clueless The trails of errors left behind How do we progress asked they A gathering of soulessness at its peak Dig, dig while you can For we have been sold a lie Daddies bought on vapid value Installed by the inner caicos Babies we...

A New Breed
Riiip, speaks the note, While the old crowd looked on, Wondering at the sight, Is this all there is? Dethroned, rang loud as cymbals. He was a prince, revere beauty he was He craved power beyond reason Daring to oppose the Most High In derision, he was sent away To throng among the seeds of man Beget heirs of them Became a thorn in their flesh Swapped ruler's garb for serfs' Then men stumbled in the dark But the Creator wasn't pleased, seeing deception So He sent His waves Crashing in a destr...

A Blissful Day
A season of joy, Shared with more than a handful, Cocooned in depths of solace, As hearts surged in adoration, Of a benevolent Creator, No sooner than expected, Faces stained with waters of gratitude, With hands clasps in fervent devotion So the day ended with smiles plastered on, The lips of love-singers Happy Sunday! How did you spend the day? ©sailabby #Poetry #Storyteller #NircleFamily #Nircle #Creative #NircleStories #MyNircleFeeds #Poet #NircleFeeds
Drained
The heart bleed tears from faces Entwined with pessimism Kin to defeatism Of what cause should we dine? While our hopes and dreams Lay in tatters of ruin Bellies as barren as the land With echoes of yesteryears Made one with the blood of Abel Still wailing for restitution High hopes for a better end For the body was dust Yet the soul lives on, infinite Weeping lips gone slack Strength drained Borne on the wings of neglect The rich also cry When the going gets tough His offspring a ...
Moral Bankruptcy
Slaves to the dance of negligence Heed the shrieks of the wind You were shaken like a reed With lips gone slack at the seams You spat on decency Complacency became your hallmark Wave the bias flag Dig a hole in patriotism The hands that signs conducts sneers Hiding behind law and order Smirking at the sheep Screaming for moral theology Unaware that the way had been paved By palm greased with money in-between Oh! Who will do justice for the poor? The braves ones are gone Smothered in silence ...
Naima
Brand your name on my heart, Tell me true words of love, Cloth in raiment of glory, Exceed my life's worth, And let me see you in a better light, But leave a piece of me in you, As you ferry through life's journey. © sailabby Photocredit: @kinx_gearsai on IG #Poetry #Storyteller #NircleFamily #Nircle #Creative #NircleStories #Beunique #Naima #MyNircleFeeds #NircleFeeds #HelloNircle
This Turn
The year began on a joyful note, Fete from last year's feast, Hung heavy in the air, Like jowl of a retired belly, Among the revelers, expectancy, Wishes flew on flippant wings, She came with the rains, Stole his heart from the start, A history of the past, Coddle, no stranger to fuss, More nagging than haggling, He put a penny of her yearning. A slip, a blunder, and the maids, Were sure to get it, Spared no qualms about, Doling out smack and thwack, Dared any to tell a tale, Spoile...
The Wisdom Of Eagles: Mindfulness Lessons For Leadership And Life
1. Sit, be patient and be open to exploring new heights When you find an eagle in flight, you quickly notice that eagles are masters of energy conservation. By completely spreading its wings and by paying careful attention to balance, it uses only a minimal expenditure of energy to remain aloft, moving at great speeds, buoyed by the natural currents of air, and trusting that the wind will carry it precisely where it needs to be. 2. Stretch out fully, find your balance and let it unfold Finally,...

Hero of Time
If I were younger, I’d wish you kept Locked in a castle made by tender care Gliding with me in a never-ending parade Wrapped up in your arms as I did before Playing Osiwe never gets old with you How soon you left before I could say a word My rock you were, stalwart as can be A day, I woke up you weren’t there Who will sing my cheers now? Calling in praise as I hit milestones Time lost its reins on frame Did you walk the path alone? My eyes were open for shutting them Hurtle in the ...
How I’ve Built The Life Of My Dreams Using Vision Boards & Affirmations
3 Ways To Make Your Vision Boards Visualization: My journey with vision boards has been an evolution. When I started, I wasn’t doing anything physical, I have a vivid imagination so I was envisioning myself accomplishing my goals in my mind without even realizing that I was manifesting my future. Vision Board/Book: Rather than making a board, I started collecting things from magazines, or printing pictures from Pinterest and putting them in a sketchbook. Eventually, I started making differen...
The Journal
I wrote about you once, how you patter, Woven in sheer contrast to reality, A free moral agent, with no concept, You saw it in rare shade, asking now and then, It tore to pieces, never seen the light, While you lay your head, thinking its loss. @sailaabby718822 Photocredit: @kinx_gearsai on IG #poetry #storyteller #beunique #nircle #creative #nirclestories #MyIdentity #TheJournal #storywriter #nirclefeeds
Mindless
I'm here, again, going through this list, Again wishing it were more, Wake the sleeper, It's time for ambush, Set your gaze, count your count, It's a battle of defense, I picked at your heart, Hoped to see you live, Stabbing at little point, Colour me my name, In a burst of thunder, Let the shadow out, Throw in the perserve, Never lose sight of prime's priceless, Till its day's dawn and the mothers cry. ©sailabby Photocredit: IG Photos #poetry #storyteller #nircle #creative #nirc...
