The poem "UNIBEN'S ORCHARD" is inspired by an actual orchard located near the Faculty of Arts in the University of Benin. Over the course of a month, I noticed that the orchard became a sacred place where students sought communion with God-an oasis of peace amidst the busyness of university life. The trees, standing tall as silent sentinels, seemed to offer spiritual refuge to those in need of solace and prayer. The orchard is always busy with students, praying, meditating, and reflecting. It's more than just a place-it's a sanctuary where faith meets study, and where the heart finds peace. Observing the vibrancy of this spiritual environment, I was inspired to capture the essence of this divine connection in my poem. It is composed of twelve lines, following an AABBCCDDEEFF rhyme scheme, reflecting the harmony I observed in the orchard-a harmony between the students and their pursuit of both knowledge and divine grace. I hope my poem speaks to anyone who has found peace or strength in the midst of their academic journey, just as I did in the Orchard.

Darkness presses against your eyelids. Open or closed, it makes no difference - the void remains absolute. Your hands reach out, grasping nothing. Up becomes down becomes sideways becomes nowhere. Your breath catches. Lungs burn. Panic rises like bile in your throat. Fight. Move. Run. But where? Your feet stumble over themselves as reality blurs. The darkness wraps around your ankles, thick as tar, patient as stone. Then... silence. The frantic drumbeat of your heart slows. The void no longer suffocates - it cradles. Like sinking into warm water, the darkness seeps into your bones. No more running. No more fear. This is what you were fighting? Here, in the ancient dark, truth whispers. It has waited eons for you, watched civilizations rise and fall, held secrets older than time. You understand now - the darkness isn't empty. It's everything. It's you. Let go. Become whole.
