Dancing Angels
velvet night
how loud my praise
in tones of silence
carried across the heavens
dancing angels

Echo of Silence
to the end
that my hallelujahs
rise up to you
favour me O Lord
in this

Emotions
too long in the rain
this sun ray slants into me
sliver by sliver

Hello to you all my lovely friends and a wonderful New Year to you 🙂 It’s good to be back here with you once again. I know I’ve missed a lot and it will take me ages o catch up, if ever I do at all. 🙂 So, here is a small cherita to start my 2019 blogging. Enjoy! 🙂
O yes. I’m excited to announce that my book, Haiku Rhapsodies, Verses from Ghana, has done it again. Haiku Rhapsodies, Verses from Ghana, has won the Accra International Book Festival (AIBF) Literary Awards 2018 under the coveted First Book Award Category. Yay. 🙂 🙂
Songs – A Cherita
beyond velvet
blanket of skies
your song beckons
ululating
enchanting my waking dreams

Bead Earrings
with a naughty wink
he completes
my joy
a mom’s pride
soars on his gift
of bright beads earrings

Whispers of Dawn is a wonderful collection of these short story poems by Celestine Nudanu.The book is broken down into 6 themes; Whispers, Making Love, The Dark Side of Love, Death, Saving Grace and Random Thoughts. There are 85 poems in this collection. All poems in the book are centralized with one poem per page.
Celestine is not afraid to tell it as it is…her stories are real, heartfelt and soul-searching.
In the Whispers section, the beautiful;
the way
the petals open
to reveal sunlight
this morning
your smile opened the door
to a new beginning
In the Making Love section;
see me
fall to pieces
as you strum
on the breeze
andante
andante
and in the Dark Side of Love section;
the day you left
you left
with the sunshine
how time flies
this sunshine
in my baby’s smile
The next section is Death;
dark clouds
billowing curtains
close his days
I watch, helpless
as his breath fades
with my memories
In the Saving Grace section;
in my distress
I seek your face
beyond the blue vastness
a whisper, just a breeze
will do
for this soul on fire
and finally in Random Thoughts this very apt poem;
today
you and I will sing
with the wings
for with the storm brewing
a tomorrow
is not certain
Whispers of Dawn is a collection you will want to read and reread…I know I will be!

New Life in Christ
there’s so much to say

a chance to breathe
undeserved
new life

FOR ARETHA FRANKLIN!
Sing on, Songbird!
Fly Baby Fly
fly baby fly
sexy songbird
crooning on
the heavens gain
a legend
and you, freedom

Empty Shells
billowing shores
the echo…
in empty shells
