Topic:

Tell us about one of your most favoured, enjoyable, beautiful or idyllic moments spent in nature - Where and when was it, what did you do there. Your garden, the woods, the seaside, tropical paradise or desert, a park in the city or the wide open plains; anywhere counts as long as it was a moment spent with nature.


I am a firm lover of nature because nature speaks. I love being around nature because of the inspiration I get. I could stay close to nature and have free flow of inspiration pouring as I scribble down poems, ideas and observe.

I miss being close to nature and in my former city; Ibadan in Oyo State, there are tons of gardens and parks I could go to and there was this favourite one that I love going to; Agodi Gardens towards the government secretariat. Ever since I moved to Lagos, haven't been around parks that much except few times because Lagos on its own is stress and I am always busy at all times... Maybe most.

I remembered in 2017 when we went to Agodi Gardens with my team back then. We went on team bonding exercise where we would walk around the park, laugh, observe nature and then discuss while we eat too. They didn't allow food in there so as to protect nature and of course not to mess up the whole place. They sell decent food there too and I always enjoy the peace this place gives. I love how calm and peaceful the whole place was. Tall trees with cool breeze... Amazing shades and tender grasses...

One thing I love most about this Garden is that they have Zoo in there as well. I love everything about this place because they made it more recreational, more appealing and there is a section for pool as well.

I only managed to take few pictures and from the background of my images you would see how big this place is. I've always believed that nature speaks... It speaks the language only the heart understands and I am never taking it for granted. I just want to soak up the atmosphere and revel in it.

Nature is life...it deserved to be cherished, nourished and observed. I observe nature more so as to enjoy the beauty it brings. Our team bonding exercise was further strengthened with the help of the nature we got treated to. I am still searching for some of these pictures and I was lucky to find just a few on Google Photos.

There was a particular spot at this garden where the Sun shines brightly...I've always been wary of the Sun but when you feel this one on your skin you could tell that nature was trying to get your attention and tell you something.

The grasses were green all through and screaming to get a hold of our legs as I moved my hands on them few times too. I love the feel of the grass on my skin as the breeze blows gently... The feeling is indescribable and I love seeing the pool, the grass and watch the tree dance to the rhythm of the wind.

Enjoy the pictures below and those are the ones I managed to dig out. Hopefully I can find more and then apply it later on...

Enjoy them...
