Dear Santa, Ho! Ho! Ho! How do you feel now that your sleigh is mechanized? I, my brothers and sisters are not happy freezing here at the pole. I understand though, times have changed I know. 2018 is almost here already. I thought I should begin by telling you thank you, for giving me a story in Makurdi, I mean it is a very interesting one, after Daddy found a tree there to give me pages. Thank you for giving me more credence to my voice, it found Korea and a whole lot of stories I didn’t promise to write here (check the mail I sent with my award letter, it didn’t carry my handwriting). And then you gave me a couple of more swords, sorry I mean words. I have found some new grounds with it and build cities with it. One of them has a sun shining in the dark, you should see how beautiful it shines and oversees’ the deeds of the world. I heard you couldn’t stop listening to the “Handwriting”, yeah its contagious enough to listen and not get enough of it. I wish you would write back telling me your best track as mine is the one I wrote you about when I last did. I hope you know how my friends have not put in smiles for me and my success, hardly do I see their eyes lurking in my direction but Dansah told me that it comes with the growth, it is part of such a story and makes the history even more beautiful. Last week I met the elf with the new year scrolls and I dropped my wishlist even as I have begun the new year already, please crosscheck the part where I want to not perform for free or make any product free and see if it can now come with a fee. Please, when bringing gifts, don’t forget a karate notebook. I feel I should go back to school and class my ideas. Or if a pool game brings its cue ball, lift my eyes to see it while my solitude rest with the smile of a 2 year old. I’m so tired of not having a Play Station and a new Macintosh, let me continue the board game with Cupid and beat him while you bring roses for February. Hope you get this and read like the last one I sent. It’s me TRCP.... ======================== #poetry #naija #poet #poetemcee #positivity #poetsofinstagram
