THE FIRST RECOLLECTIONS

~ Che

Do you remember how we met?
It was by chance, wasn’t it?
That is, if we were to begin now
To believe in chance…
The chance that came our way –
We took it…
Just one look at it
And we took it –

I remember many beginnings
I remember the start of
Many love stories
But our beginning was indeed special
Because it was simply so natural
And so unaffected
Just like all the poems it has given birth to.

That was our beginning
And that shall be our story
The natural and the unaffected
Missing you breaks my heart
Even already on the first day
Without us together
Nothing o nothing will ever be the same Again.

– Che Chidi Chukwumerije

  3. Hi….Would it interest to you to do a guest post on my blog? Contribute to my recent series of poems – with one alphabet as a muse at a time?
    Let me know if you’re up for it..

      1. Awesome. Take the alphabet K and use it to write a poem. Now you can do that in two ways- either use many many different words starting with alphabet K or using a same K word repeatedly.

        Basically K is your muse, use it as extensively possible. No word limit. Once you’re done mail it to me at sakshi.nitt@gmail.com

        maybe you can send it in before next week same time?

        1. Very interesting. This is new-land to me. Will try not to disappoint you, and you can tell me if that’s what you meant or something else entirely.

            1. I mean the form of poetry you have in mind, with all those Ks – I’ll try something and send it over, and see if I understood your idea.
