LEISURE:POETRY

We would like to remember here that some time back , we informed you that poetry is like lollipop which is supposed to be enjoyed as we relish away sweet moments of our breath. today we are at it again not only to mention its criticality but rather how you can use poetry to revive your senses and make your mind active and quick to understand occurrences within our larger society.

Just like cryptic cross word as form of entertainment and leisure, we also want to recommend a poem here and there within your menu of taking care of your mind lest you become redundant. To help you not remain an ordinary person, take a moment once in a while perhaps twice per week and sample your poetry books. A good recommendation could be poems from East Africa by David Cook & David Rubandiri. it is a good collection with over hundred plus poems at your exposure, trust that this is a wonderful start to remove all the cobwebs and dust from your hallowed mind and dust off ignorance to grow your own life.


How therefore do you sharpen or awaken you tentacles using poem? Read a poem as it is once to get a rough idea of what the poet is passing across. Accentuate your understanding by taking a second reading this time being sensitive to note every little detail that is mentioned in the poem. Third, take the content of the poem from the book and lift it unto yourself for size to see if it fits in your body and life. See if the message is related to common and ordinary happenings around.

Task your mind and traverse the world for your answer. Read for fun as well as for development to keep yourself  abreast about this and that on daily occurrences of life. WHEN YOU DO THIS, WE CALL it JUSTICE to your breath and TIME. see you soon,
