Description
On the shoreline Desmond pauses, the waves keep time with his shoes. Nadia Frank keeps a paper map of the streets they used to choose.
Sir Isaac lit a hallway lamp that smelled of oil and books. Folded Sunday shirts are quiet in her looks. Madam Susie hums the radio, a tune that never leaves.
Madam Patience Kubjo tends the geraniums with careful sleeves. Frank left footprints in the sand that the tide would not erase. These small stubborn traces of the people and the place.
Say their names into the quiet, let memory hold them close. Rosemary Kalevor at the station, Bright Takrama on the road. Samuel, Arthur, Emmanuel, each one carries their own load.
Tata irons a tablecloth where Mavis keeps a single cup. Josiah Sedo whistles sideways, trying to whistle the herd up. Blessing the boy Abina plays a lullaby on borrowed strings. Blessing Augustine folds letters until his grief takes wing.
Jude and Joseph share a rooftop where the city bends its lights. A Fia Sedo pours tea at midnight, naming long-gone nights. A Ting of Francis sketches doorways where old promises convene. Moses Pablampo counts the stars where new and old ghosts lean.
Say their names into the quiet, let memory hold them close. Eunice Amedi ties a ribbon, Elijah hums along the road. Their small precise gestures keep the stories tender cold.
In a kitchen window, Desmond folds a scarf that Nadia wore. The pattern frays at the edges, but it keeps them wanting more. He lifts the cloth to the light, a constellation, soft and thin. Nadia smiles in the reflection, hope begins again within.
This single scarf becomes a map where every sorrow goes. And just beyond the doorway, a slow warm tending grows.
Say their names into the quiet, let memory hold them close. We won't lay their stories down like stones along the road. We carry them in tune and tremor in the hush between the rows.
Call the list into the hush, Desmond, Nadia, Frank, Sir Isaac, Madam Bridge, Adam, Susie, Madam Patience, Cub, Joe, and Frank again if need be.
Rosemary, Calaver, Bright, Tacrama, Samuel, Arthur, Emmanuel, Tatha, Mavis, Josiah, Sado.
Blessing the boy, Abina, Blessing Augustine, Jude, Joseph, Ophie, Hillis, Sado, Atinga, Francis, Moses, Paplampo, Eunice, Amidi, Elijah.
Names like lanterns in the dark. Say them once more into the quiet, let memory hold them close.
