My Vero


MY VERO

My Vero, in you I've found the perfect friend
Someone I'm sure will be there till the end
It is not just a thought I hope to fulfill
The sweet memories you embed in my heart,
are thoughts that will stand forever still
even after earth meets its prime.

My Vero,
As the wind on a hot summer day
So is your friendship that you never betray.
As the still image in a photograph
so is your breathless, silent laugh.
As the stars in the night sky,
so is your warm embrace.

Within you, I've found the perfect friend
A mind that I can comprehend
A person I see is so much like me
A mutual relationship so carefree,
mutual, genuine and divine.
My Vero, my vine.

My Vero, child who questions the world
My Vero, the scream that goes unheard
in the wilderness of sages.
Carefree as an adult blessed with a dream
Carefree as water flowing downstream -
fresh for ages.

Within you, I've found the perfect friend
With whom I can be real, and never pretend.
You've always been someone unique from the rest
You hold a piece of me no other can possess.
Yes,
You posses a part of me none else can claim.

My Vero, I live every moment in time for you.
In you I've found the life I want
You are perfect friend
With you, I see myself till the very end.

All these and more 
I can say and could go on,
as you celebrate the day you were born
to grace earth like the Son of God.
From my heart of hearts with all I've got
I wish you, my Vero, the best of all.

Happy Birthday
Poetic Princess.

Fiction | The Tripod Effect

THE TRIPOD EFFECT The Smiths were unable to conceive children and decided to use a surrogate father to start their family. On the day the surrogate father was to arrive, Mr. Smith kissed his wife and said, "I'm off. The man should be here soon" Half an hour later, just by chance a door- to-door baby photographer rang the doorbell, hoping to make a sale.  "Good morning, madam. I've come to...." "Oh, no need to explain. I've been expecting you," Mrs. Smith cut in. "Really?" the photographer asked. "Well, good. I've made a speciality of babies"  "That's what my husband and I had hoped. Please come in and have a seat"  After a moment, she asked, blushing, "Well, where do we start?"  "Leave everything to me. I usually try two in the bathtub, one on the couch and perhaps a couple on the bed. Sometimes the living room floor is fun too; you can really spread out!" "Bathtub, living room floo...

Letter To My Son

Dear Son Try to forget that nothing waits in the dark, raise your shoulder high wave off the frea and step into that lane. Won't you rather be gone in there than stay out here playing the coward? Get up now, son everyone falls. #Pengician #SSA http://bit.ly/2haEhoj

Floating - Stefn Sylvester Anyatonwu

POEM 146: FLOATING Sometimes I feel like a piece of lead dropped in the ocean Sinking to rise no more Other times I feel like the Titanic riding on ocean waves  but a hole of flaws  bored by their quest for faults leaves me sinking to rise no more. But tonight, I feel like I'm just f      l             o a       t               i   n                    ­     g in a stream of your voice surrounded about by smiling stars touching my skin and caressing my heart. Though I fear sinking again like before I know you're waiting arms open in the ocean bed to engulf me in mindless kisses until my feet forget to flee until I make in you my home for nowhere, there is, to go when I'm floating in your love.
