You’ve Got Jewels In You
You’ve got jewels in you
The purest of all the golds
Of all the precious stones
More treasures than can
Be ever imagined
In lifelong proportion
So do not let
To be shrunk
To an eternal cipher
Seen as a paltry
Or the malodorous junk
From the debris truck.

I'm a food scientist who has chosen the path of creative writing- the one thing which comes to me naturally.
Back in 2013, my love for teaching young learners propelled me into picking teaching as a career. I taught English, Maths and Science in the United Arab Emirates where I lived for ten years. Right now, I live in Coal City, a beautiful hilly area of my country Nigeria.
My website Fiez-writer is a product of my extreme desire to share my writing with the world. Here, I share fiction, poems, thoughts and writing tips.
A huge part of my life is spent with my lovely family and I'm a proud mother to three brilliant kids.
Thank you for the reminder!
