The Diamond in the Swamp

by DavidBokolo


I have not seen it this way till by sheer luck in the course of an academic pursuit that I stumbled into this Beautiful swamp called the Niger Delta.
Whoever conceived the idea of the East/West Coastal Road must be a genius of some sort. You may not appreciate it if you view it with the microscopic view of a party Politician. This project to a creative mind is what I would call the 'Diamond in the Swamp.'
I am going to use the next 25 days of this month, to x-ray what this project meant to the region and the people; all in creative thoughts.
to be part of this discourse, just be glued to this page in the next 25 days and everyone is free to express your thoughts in a creative way.
I will see you tomorrow.

"Like a dangling swing from outa space
the diamond bridge over the Bonny river
spraying its golden rays of lights upon the
dark rippling ocean waves that have become
docile at this time, being in harmony with this
incendiary display from the beautiful dangling 
concrete superstructure over its ominous depth."

Let others and the author know if you liked it
