It’s past 6 AM, and I’m contemplating love. I woke up while composing a love poem. Love makes us do crazy things, right? Most of my love messages go beyond just one person; they express my passion for humanity, life, and hope. February is a month dedicated to celebrating love. Expect more reflections on love! Good morning.

Muse: When You Smile

I remember the first time I met you,
And when you came into my life,

Each time you look at me,
And when you smile at me,
My whole being sings in happiness
And tree leaves shuffle and dance
I found joy watching you smile,
I’m happy, I celebrate you, baby
And I will tell the world daily
How much I love you! Ina sonki!

Ina sonki*: Hausa language for I love/cherish you. Use it when a man addresses a woman. Use ina sonka when the reverse is the case.
