There she was in those days. In the time when days were young and hearts were merry, when the eye still laid it’s head on the knee. The time when she lived in the greatest island on earth. She was the wealthiest merchant on earth, and she traded with men and gods alike. Her abode was filled with such great treasures that their kinds never existed.
Those who patronized her knew that dealing with her was a symbol of greatness; Zeus, the sun god and his wife, Radha and Krishna, Mandella of South Africa, Odysseus of Ithaca and his dear wife – Penelope – amongst others were priviledged to meet her; she was such a wonder to many. Cameroon, the movie maker revealed her identity in his massive titanic ship, Shakespare exposed her like the sweet aroma of burning fats in the lives of Romeo and Julliet – the era of love – when she dwelt in the greatest island on earth!
Now, fresh waters have surfaced, and new fishes have entered into them. Days are now old and haggered, with teeth sharp like razor in their chests. All there seem to be now, is some Ro and Jul, and Meo and Liet trying to psyche each other up! Of course, there are still a few Romeos’ and Julliets’ but they are now one in a million. It is quite unfortunate that a Romeo now ends up with a Jul, and a Julliet with a Meo.
In this era of Facebook it looks like she is lost – forever – burried deep beneath the earth, her treasures all over earth, scattered like sheep without a shephard – wandering…searching…for great minds to deal. Thank God all hope is not lost! She is still very much around, with a trail behind her. Find her and you will live forever! This is a quest in which only great minds can embark on. It is indeed the glory of God to conceal a thing, but the honour of kings to search out a matter.
