The past is eternalized,
As we went through the gate,
With it’s structure of stone,
Prepared by people of the kingdom.
IMG_1903.JPG
Now we celebrate,
Building infrastructures for,
And by the people,
Of the country.

But without the past,
We will not be at the present,
People with hope and spirit,
Build the future through learning.

The Gate

Up the hill,
Passing all the sentries,
Then you will reach,
The gate to the palace,
A journey to the royalties,
A tribute to the King.

Some people try to impress others,
With the complexity of things,
As if nobility is such a thing,
While in fact it is not.
The rulers of Boko proved,
That simplicity blended with nature,
Is enough to show and be prove of,
Their place up there with the clouds.

Entrance To The Main Hall

Once it was the bathing place,
Of selected beauties of the kingdom,
To be there you must be approved,
By the ruler itself.
Now its just weed and sheep,
Everybody can enter,
And be reminded of the past,
Nobility not required.
Learn from history.

The fire from the kitchen is important,

As most of the time it is the center of the household,

Place where everyone is looking for comfort,

As food is there,

And coldness stays away.

Looking forward to see some more of you,

Traditional kitchen here I come.

The sun goes up and down,

Each and everyday,

It is running on own timetable,

Fix and sure it is.

If you cannot see it,

Than look beyond the clouds,

Sure you will find it there.
