Reminiscences Of Nsukka
Uche Peter Umez

Dark splotches on the silk spread of the sky

were the clouds, the sun

a handful of tawny embers flung

over the arches of these tufted hills

ponderous,

hunched up

like giants of folklore ��

awesome rocky angels of Nsukka?

 

At the feet of the hills

wilted leaves rustled and tossed

in the austere whirl of harmattan

 

I sat on a boulder

thoughts more poetic than a lover�s dream

coursed through the mind�s maze

roused reminiscences, almost forgotten,

of a poignant kiss

with a beloved one�deceased.
