They told me






They told me


So they told me
At odds times they drill
And daily my ears hurt for the warning
Warning of love I call it
Many words they said to me
That at your arrival
I shall loose my sleep
And that my time would be yours
Yet I yarn for you
My thoughts were,how you would look

So now when I hear you cry seconds after leaving you, I remember those words
When I trade my meal time for your me time
When I can't wear my usual slimfit dresses I remember those words
When I can't attend most events I remember those words about your arrival

Well I fear not those words
Yes I fear not their reasons

Rather I love every of your troubles
Your joy I seek
So I love to see you smile
I love the way you refuse to be swaddled
I love you more than words can say

You changed my world and carved your world by my world

It is only a phase and for each phase I shan't be weary of you


Thank you for your time on Olabusola's Review. The Poem is from Olabusola's library 2020漏

How To Teach Children African Proverbs We should not allow this compulsive Covid-19 vacation end just like that.

I bet not many parents are familiar with African Proverbs especially the 21st Century Parents. Never mind, it is not too late to  start with the few popular African adage or Proverbs that you are familiar.

Apenuwa Temitope Daniel

  Apenuwa Temitope Daniel is a remarkable individual whose intelligence and determination make him stand out. He is not just ambitious but also a relentless goal-getter. I recall him once expressing his academic standard, saying he must not see a "C" in his results again. For him, even a "B" signifies failure because an "A" is his true grade. Our friendship deepened as we discovered both similarities and differences in our personalities and preferences. We shared the distinction of earning "A"s in Directing Practical Exams, not just once but repeatedly, confirming our shared dedication to excellence. However, our creative inclinations differed鈥擜penuwa leaned toward modern, foreign plays, while I had a deep affinity for local and traditional themes. This contrast enriched our perspectives and strengthened our bond. Fate brought us together in a memorable project group during our undergraduate years in 2006, alongside Faturoti Tayo, Latifat Suleima...
