The Silent Bird Sings from the Nest Chukwuma Julius Okonkwo

Poetry touches every aspect of human life. It is an expression of things that affect us, a reflection of the way things are in societies, and a means through which we can freely speak to other people. It does not matter what culture you embrace, your racial background, religion, sexual orientation or body size. Poetry goes above culture, race, religion, sex and body size. Poetry can be food for the soul. It has the potential for healing and nourishment. This book is a constellation of poems which cut across various genres of poetry. With the adventures, romanticism, fantasies, sentimental collections, dedications, eulogies and humours that are reflected in the poems, the book takes readers on a journey and enlivens them after each journey. The diversity of poems in this book is an attestation to its richness. I hope that such richness brings you hope and happiness.
