  3. It’s A Shout Out For

Everyone,

Welcome once, again!  As we near the close of the 2020 WATCH “RWISA” WRITE Showcase Tour. Today we’re clapping and shouting for our featured artist, who is none other than Author, Joy Nwosu-Lo-Bamijoko.  Her tale topic is on “IROKO”

“IROKO”

In the past, nobody would have taken notice of Iroko, the biggest and tallest tree in the forest. But then, cities started to grow and to eat into the forests. Trees were cut to make way for the growing cities. But the Iroko tree resisted being cut down. Any time an axe cut the tree, the axe either broke or the cut bled, real blood, and cries, ear-piercing cries, like human cries were heard coming from the tree.

The stories surrounding Iroko were such that settlers decided to let it stand and the town grew all around and away from it. Things went on peacefully for a while, but soon it became clear that Iroko did not like the exposure it was getting from the people surrounding it. After all, this tree was the king of the forest, where both trees and animals revered it. Now, standing in the midst of humans, with no one paying it any heed, all of this would change very rapidly. . . .

    First off I want to say excellent blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you do not mind.
    I waas interested to find outt how you center yourself and
    clear your head before writing. I’ve had a tough time clearing
    my thoughts in getyting mmy ideas out. Itruly do take pleasure in writing but
    it just seems like thee fifst 10 to 15 minutes are generally wasted just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or hints?

    Kudos!

      Hi there:

      Pleased you’re visiting the website. Thanks for your kind words. Well, I just write what comes to mind. It’s easy to write on the topic especially having encountered a toxic past. I know what it’s like to experience that darkness after coming through the journey. If you read my creations that will shed more light on why I write topics. Perhaps, it’s why the stories have been award winners. Hopefully, you will share with others. Come again, soon!

    Did you create this site yourself? Please reply back as I’m trying to create
    my own personal blog and want to know where you got this from or exactly what the theme is named.

      Excited that you’ve found me! During this Covid-19 span, it’s a great time for doing some “Me Time.” How can you take care of the little ones and partner if self is not being nurtured? On Sundays, I have my do-nothing days. Call it my “Me Day” – staying in watching TV, indulging w/strawberries and whip cream. Yummy, yummy! Are you taking care of yourself?
