Omaks' Speakers Corner Series Quote: Today i start a new initiative with a bit of trepidation. I am aiming to kickstart a trend that may proof popular with fellow forumites on NVS, or fall flat on it's face. Pure and simple, i want to recreate a 'Speakers' Corner' through my blogs.

I just had to pen this short musing, after being away for sometime. I didn't think this would be the first thing i would write on returning, but that's the way things happen sometimes.
So it happens that last monday i had a bout of common cold. Okay, i was sneezing, and coughing, and had this croaked, whizzy voice, but i still had to run errands for mama omaks. So i got on this train, and as i entered i saw this youngish lady with a news paper glued (and i mean really close) to her...

My name is Noah,
I built an Arc,
I built it at home,
Not at the Park,
I brought animals and birds,
Some of them were Strong,
They made all sorts of noise all night long,
I wrote this poem,
It's like a song,
And i could go on and on.

I woke up this morning to the question , 'How old are you dear'? I am sure at work this morning the question will be 'How old are you now'? Everyone will ask a similar question in different variants during the course of the day.
So trying to respond to the question, i started thinking, 'Why must it be How old'? Why not, 'How Fresh', 'How wise' 'How Healthy' or indeed 'how young'?
Now don't get me wrong folks, i do know the implications and meaning of the question...

Yes i'm falling in love again,
With whom you might be thinking,
Myself i say to y'all.
Yes I'm falling in love with myself over again,
and all the people round me are better for it.
My love particularly has noticed a marked difference in the new me.
It's a season to be merry, but it's more like a whole new era of merriment for me and my sweetheart,
It's not borne out of selfishness,
rather i just didn't know how much i had...

As usual Temi and 'Juwon are on their way to the stream,
To fetch water,
They are in the mist of their peers,
But it's almost an open secret,
Temi and 'Juwon are lovers
Have been for some time,
The silent, loving look,
The sudden disappearance behind the groove,
The quick touches,
The signs,
All with hidden meanings,
As they often do, they will disappear for brief moments,
In quest for brief...
