Words. 
Words are power, words are hope, words are comfort and words are strong. 
Specially when they are intertwined into beautiful strings of lines which weave into verses and ultimately gives us warmth in the form of a poem.

Everyone has there unique way of expressing themselves. Mine are words. Poetry helps me de clutter my feelings which otherwise would have caused havoc in my heart. This collection of my poems are selected to give the reader a glimpse of a willful heart so that they too can live life through poetry

The 155th Sonnet

155 parts Complete Mature

Shakespeare's *Macbeth* was in my syllabus when I was in secondary school. But *Macbeth* was just an appetiser, for I went on to get the complete works of his. It was as I was reading his sonnets that I tried to mimic his 14-line poems-and the rest is history. I did not simply read Shakespeare; I encountered him. In my "mimicking" of his sonnets, I learnt that a word could be stretched from its primary meaning to other "shades" of meaning. Poetry to me is like a pilgrimage, a path of mystery, a ritual that can transport the poet from where he is to where the subject of his writing is, where he achieves a lived experience. I deliberately chose a rhyming scheme of **AABB CDCD EEFF GG**, with which I wish to import an African voice into the sacred art of sonnet writing. ✨ *OnukaoguOkechi83 is a winner of the Shortys 2025.
