4 PROSE: BEAUTY

 

ADULEWA

 

Hear the epic tone of ancient eulogy as the epitome of ageless femininity strode upon the rivers of beauty. Hear the voice of silence sigh at the sight of her style and at the salient poise of her stride even silence had to smile.

Look as the highlands bow at the presence of her glory and the islands rise at the present of her story. The sea wave at the description of her beauty and the ocean pave way at the prescription of her duty.

Hmm…Adulewa, at the express of your oral mystery, even ‘Empress Nature’ lost her aura mystique. Many cool dudes drown at the pool of your wiles and only a fool will not feel the pull of your smiles.

Black beauty, your eyelids are a pointer of how nature’s eye leads and each time nature’s eye meet your eyes, its ice continuously melt. Your ample bosom is a symbol of life’s humble blossom. In the court of your blissful boom, the earth reached a peaceful bloom.

Adulewa, made of black, mother of all colours. She is different by design and a referent ensign of timeless beauty.
