//ABOUT THIS BLOG...

Years ago, I picked up a fascination with names...their meanings...the rhythms behind them. I chose to respond to it poetically.

This blog's a collection of some of the name poems I've written over the years.

poetry
I am
the first raindrop
the first light
the first tree

Embrace me...


I am
the first whisper
the first thought
the first smile

Revere me...


I am
the first hue-man
the first wo-man
the first mother

Respect me...


I am
Hawa
I am
Africa


Embrace


Revere


Respect
