Before you, mother Idoto,
naked I stand,
before your watery presence,
a prodigal,
leaning on an oilbean;
lost in your legend...

Poetry: Idoto by Christopher Okigbo
Before you, mother Idoto,
naked I stand,
before your watery presence,
a prodigal,
leaning on an oilbean;
lost in your legend...
Leonaldo Da Vinci once said:
"I have been impressed by the urgency of doing. Knowing isn't enough; we must apply. Being willingly isn't enough; we must do."
He was right!
