Sweet Home

Sweet home

Sweet home is sweet ,sweeter in the beautiful mind of every traveller ,even sweetest when one smells the aroma of home from afar.

The sound of village drums-igba,ikoro,ekwe ,the dancing steps of my village masquerade never depart from my mind and ear ,no matter the distance of my sojourn.

My papa once said:

Gather the wealth of the distant lands,fight the battle of survival and life,fight the battle of poverty,win,fight marital battles ,win or lose,dont forget home and road that leads you home.

Sweet home is sweet ,sweeter in the beautiful mind of every traveller ,even sweetest when one smells the aroma of home from afar.

Home they say,maybe on hilltop,mountaintop, farmstead,forest,woods, gray allays ,island and inland,bottom of the sea.

Importantly,my mama said,son!home is a place or anything that offers you peace of mind and comfort of nature's power.

My grandpa said,home has two handles,one that offers every human arms of warmest embrace and another one that shields from battles of life and worry,wary moments life brings sometimes.

My grandma laughed and said,grandson,every human and animal has a home,it could be on tree's branch,it could be holes in the grounds,crooked part of the hills,forests and rocks.

It could be in the hearts of animals and friends that stayed in bad and good times ,thin and thick moments of life,friends ,brothers ,pets that stayed in your times of fair and farce,they stay true by your side,win or lose.

Oh!oh!home is sweet,home is sweeter when some find home and solace in the eyes of children,babies abadoned on the street,the injured,the oppressed,the helpless.

Anywhere you find home,live,enjoy its peace,its comfort and refuge it offers.
