Into Another World

Give me the opportunity to speak my mind
For I'm already in another world
Five me the chance to speak what is within me
For I'm not in the world i used to be
Open your arms and get me clutched
Before i run out of control
I have no definition for love but
I know it conquers all
I have no description of love but
I know it turns black to white
I know not the odour of love but
I know it smells greater than spikenard
I know not the value of love but
I know it is more precious than sardius
Two lovers make meddlers busy
As coral makes jeweller busy
One without love will always be a sapling but
Love makes you sapient
A single nan can't be sanguine
For his life is not as real as illusion
A romantic relationship is like chrysolite:
It is clear and defined;
It also has solutions to problems
For it turns to saraband
In days of tribulations
And afflictions.
Love smells better than calamus
And it can't be done without
A life sans love is an empty barrel
For there is no Jewel in it
Lonely life sapped both body and soul.
I will rather love than to hate
For love takes one into another world:
A world without worry;
A world enclosed with ecstasy.

Yoruba names for some animals & birds

This contribution answers the many questions that have always appeared as search terms on this blog for a long time. Unfortunately, I’m not equipped to answer those questions about the names of birds, animals, rodents … Such questions started appearing since the posting of What’s in a name? – A look at Yoruba’s views of some birds’ names by Deleola Daramola in June 2013. The article, a very popular one, had a mere 431 total views during the seven months of that year but would subsequently attract 1,640 views (2014); 2,868 views (2015); 2,822 views (2016) and in 2017 to date, there have been 1,872 views – a grand total of 9,633 views. There have been questions about “Yoruba name for igun”; “… hoopo bird called in Yoruba”; “… aluko and agbe birds in Yoruba culture”; “the English name of eye akalamagbo”; “What is the English of eye kowe”, and many others. At the end of the list, there are a couple of references, and more can be found through Google. PLEASE NOTE: Spellings often dif...

Tiwa Savage Files For Divorce As Husband Tee Billz Relocates To The US

If the report making rounds is anything to go by, then the troubled marriage of music superstar Tiwatope Savage and her husband Tunji Balogun Teebillz has finally crashed after all efforts to make it work failed. Their battle was first made public in May 2016 when Tiwa Savage washed her husband’s dirty linen in an emotional interview where she talked about his battle with hard drug and other issues affecting their marriage. Though she later reconciled with him, the two seem to have finally called it quit. According to a source, Tiwa Savage has started a divorce proceeding as her husband who’s been missing in action since late last year has secretly moved to the United States. Olatunji Balogun who was previously married to a lady in the UK reportedly left his first marriage to marry Tiwa Savage who was one of the artists he was managing then. Sadly, Tiwa Savage got carried away by love without watching for the red signals. Even though her relationship with Tee Billz was not...
