Meet Philip Mainge ~ Meet your administrator series
"I don't know what to say. I feel humbled. I was once a young kid. I taught myself how to write poems by writing my 1st poem titled ," OAU NO MORE" in 1989.It was bro-

It is via our directives( web the aged) that the youth do the right thing. Reading the book "The Republic" one learns that the aged must lead the young! Why? The case of the hen & the egg. Hope you will get in touch with me later on."

To change their perception in life because poetry has rhymes that are like songs with very special rhyming words that drive the reader (teen) into the world of poets only!
Why should grants be given to teens got poetry and how can this grant help to favour the Group.
Q7: Care should be taken when giving grant to teens. Not all will pursue what is required (like us ). Growing mind is like a pendulum- swings from side to side!
