Amaka


Amaka, 

you would have been a topic for debate in Academy and Lyceum   

A subject of intellectual discourse amongst those who sought after the hearts of Aristotle and Plato

An image of beauty that would have stormed the mind of great poets and scribblers of ancient times

Even Narcissus wouldn’t have thought himself handsome if his era was blessed with you 

Shakespeare would have written more on love and beauty if only he could have a glance of you 

But Nature decided to bless this present era with you; a wonder that holds the hearts of men in awe
