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

speaking to my heart
this dawn
the sunrise on your face

Here is a wonderful review of my book Whispers of Dawn from my blogging friend in Trinidad & Tobago, Gillena Cox.
Yes she has done it again! Celestine Nudanu has dipped into her conscious yin and yang pulling out some trinkets for us; some sparkly as fine-cut diamonds, some dark as somber onyx. She has spilled across pages more than 50 poems called cherita. Telling her personal stories and sharing her cultural essence.
Choosing this concise genre to detail issues such as love, longing, despair, gratitude, death and self-realization, is no easy task, yet this is the holy grail that this poet embarks on, and succeeds in her attainment, as ‘Whispers of Dawn’
The cherita is a 6 line poem which tells a story, in fact it is a Malay word meaning story and is a form created by Ai Li.
Ai Li, in her foreword of this collection remarks, “The cherita genre could almost have been created just for Celestine, for her to gift to us her stories”
Best wishes with your outreach pursuits for a fine collection of poems, dear Celestine. Certainly, this is not a book you can read only once.
THANKS FOR AGREEING TO BOOK SWAP Celestine [ i have sent her a copy of my ‘Pink Crush’.
much love
gillena

Exactly two years ago, my haiku collection, Haiku Rhapsodies, (Verses from Ghana) debuted in grand style to popular acclaim. To the glory of God, It sold beyond my dreams and won the enviable Atukwei Okine Award for Best Poetry Book under the auspices of the Ghana Literary Awards in 2017.
Two years on precisely, my second poetry collection, Whisper of Dawn ( A book of Cherita) the first of its kind in Africa, has hit the stands, arousing much wonderful interest home and abroad.
when all is done
life is a but a mystery
hazy
and yet the ink
writing our stories
drip, drip and drip…
Whispers of Dawn, my book of Cherita, of six lines that tell the story of love, disappointments, the joys of death and the joys of a life in Christ.
Whispers of Dawn. Soon to be on Amazon 🙂 Prepare to order copies for your reading pleasure. 🙂

CHERITA…
the feeling
that you are
slipping through my fingers
each time I get close
empty breeze
of time
