EREBE NIGHT By: Apeke


Interlude: Lálé erebe
Erebe lálé 2x
Ohun ojú mi mari o
Baba ò gbodò gbo o
Mama ò gbodò o
Lálé erebe ,erebe Lálé.




It's erebe night
Let the bell rolls
Let the orchestra beats slowly
Let the light man puts on the blue light
As ariya hugs the atmosphere
Let the Apon step up
For a tango with the omidan
Ere sèsè bèèrè...





It's Erebe night
The love circle
The drama under the orombo tree
Becomes a reality
As Ajani kisses Asake
Covert to Baba and mama Asake
Love showers upon both
Like a morning dew...
Hmmm! Ajani with his hidden agenda
Continues to grab Asake
 with the lyrics of òló mi jòwó ooo.....





It's Erebe night
Light fades
Darkness abounds
Birds asleep in their nest
Can I still go home, Ajani?
 
......it's already late,Asake
   I can't let you go....



Erebe night is over
Èrèbè continues
As tempting mosquitoes disturb Asake
The only option is Ajani's net....


Hmmmm!.
They sleep...........
They love....

Ajani sees and feels the unseen
The future becomes a present
Pleasure becomes pressure
Asake laments......
Can I say what my eyes have seen at Erebe night?

Lálé erebe,èrèbè lálé
Ohun ojú mi marí o
Baba o gbodò gbo
Mama o gbodò gbo ooo
Lálé erebe, erebe lálé....

Echoes of My Soul By: Similafleur

Painted their soul with my flowers. Left my prints on their canvas. Their rough lines, I made into edges Cracks I filled with my energy. I wanted them to be art. I made them my art. I gave too much. They left me empty. ©Similafleur

Touching Story

     A cat was so faithful    that the woman    could leave her baby    with it & go out to    attend other matters.    She always returned    to find the child    soundly asleep with    the cat faithfully    watching over him.    One day something    tragic happened. The    woman as usual, left    the baby in the "hands"    of this faithful cat    and went out shopping.    When she returned,    she discovered rather    a nasty scene, there    was a total mess.    The baby's cot was    dismantled; his nappies    and clothes torn to    shreds with blood    stains all over the    bedroom where she    left the child & the cat.    Shocked, the woman    waile...

SEX-ESCAPADE

          Relationship goals to some is dating with fine sex, but some of us dont take our time to check our partners before going into "it".  Sexually transmitted diseases are flying around now and it’s like most of us don’t even pay attention to them. Sad, but had to be said. Tunde started dating Nina. She was beautiful, fair skinned and petite. "Portable babe", he called her whenever he boasts to his friends about her. Little did he know what he was getting himself into. He said she was so free with him, gave him anything he wanted. In his mind, he thought he was using her, but he noticed she kept coming back for more which fuelled his male ego. In our brother’s mind, he was good.  On the 14th of December, 2016,  she left him without a word. He called her, texted her, but she did not reply and he continued with his life and he dated no one else. Two months later, his brother had an accident and needed blood. Of course, he ...
