I AM IN LOVE WITH A CHURCH GIRL BY IFECHUKWU MUONYILI :





I am in love with a church girl

A heart so pure and pristine

High in ethereal grace and drowned in meekness

Voice melding with the chants of the congregation

Yet standing out for my listening pleasure.

I look on, gulping down her looks

Till I stand and feel my feet no more.


She is not an ordinary church girl

In my state of ecstasy, I could see through her heart.

A halo of stars graced her head.

Angels surround her, raising her feet above the ground

The air strong but mild on her skin


I am in love with a church girl

Eyes drawn to her while she prays

Her creamy eyes beaming with sincerity and hope

For a better tomorrow in a worse-off today.

When she touches me,

The anointing I feel is both sensual and spiritual.

Then a heart attack and a massive fall

‘Oops! Did I just fall by the touch of an unarmed hand?’

Dead daisy and unconsciously unstable

Stumbling on things like a cow on roller-skates.

She smiles at my awkwardness

My face completely ashen, my eyes sedated  

As I yet take another fall.

“God, please help me to open my eyes in her arms”

Is it correct to say I waybilled it to you? A few expressions you probably don't understand

Good morning KIB students. Thank you for showing immense love to your teacher. Many of you understand how draining it could be for someone to consistently post here on Facebook. I appreciate those who ensure that my bank account doesn't  get flooded with cockroaches😃. Anyway, let's get down to brass tacks. What is a waybill? a waybill is a list that contains  names of people and goods to be conveyed from one location to another. It is that book where you write your name before entering a bus. There is an air waybill, sea waybill etc. Waybill cannot be verbalised. I want to waybill some goods to you❌ If you are looking for a verb to replace  the erroneous 'waybill', here are two genuinely accepted words to use. 1. Freight (verb) transport (goods) in bulk by truck, train, ship, or aircraft. "the metals had been freighted from the city". We freighted the cargo down to Port Harcourt. freight is used when  goods are quite bulky. When good...
