To Polish the Wind: And Other Poems

By Onuegbu Ovie

A timeless blend of lyric grace, ancestral memory, and the searching spirit, To Polish the Wind gathers poems that speak to Africa's histories, loves, and dreams. From the hushed firesides of heritage to the moonlit waters of spiritual longing, these verses are rich with the imagery of drums, wind, lotus flowers, and the voices of the departed. Here, the living commune with the dead, lovers call across distances, and nature itself becomes a witness to human joy and sorrow. The collection flows in four thematic arcs - Heritage & History, Love & Loss, Mysticism & Spirit, and Visions & Symbols - offering a deeply textured portrait of the poet's world.

Onuegbu Ovie writes in a style both steeped in oral tradition and sharpened by modern craft. This is a work for readers who treasure the music of language, the resonance of culture, and the eternal search for meaning.
