Childhood Memoirs..Of Christmas Past Poem by Nnawihe Ephraim

I thought about my childhood
And its memories i hold so dear
I remembered my neighborhood
The grass..and grasshoppers there

If i could bring back my childhood
And the loved ones who but now are gone
Oh what life that's filled with all things good
And people that made it fun

I remember fondly..my father
And those lovely friends back then
Who made life lovely and better
We even ventured to lion's den

If i can go into the land of the dead
And bring those beautiful souls back
If they could see tears shed on my bed
They will know that ''something'' i lack

I remember the music..the song, the..dance
The breeze..wind of harmattan
I wonder if they feel it there per chance
And taking with them my Christmas town
