Periwinkle Blue (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780359118915)

Periwinkles in a seasoned soup is delectable and mouthwatering. But, what does it go through before it becomes the main course? In 50 poems; Aiyeko-ooto points out, the clouds, challenges, constraints and conflicts faced pursuing new hopes of a new land. While the new land is dear to heart, and there were pains with the old, but it's not perfunctory grand, gracious or gravy, across the border. AiyeKo-ooto satires the new land as a lover. However, a reluctant lover, who abandons the ship when in stormy sea, broke the jars that quench thirsts on the long journey, escapes everything when their comfort are mostly needed, refuse to mend the pleated straps which brace the mules. Why does the experience require thinking of the past? You guessed it, every hope is not without a challenge. Every dream has a cross we bear. Sometimes it lays our hearts bare, hopes dashed and dream thwarted. But the strength we gain through these experiences, can never depart us.
