Losing to Win

Moments back in time, social media was the canker seemingly moulding the world Now, it is our binding force We are obliged to digitally bond, nurture and grow together We used to value less the smiles of family and friends Now, we crave the smile of strangers Thanks to the frenemy, the mask We wish to be alone to emulate the safety protocol This pandemic requires such an element Now, it means something critical to be left alone and in isolation Life is likely to elude us in that state. Our existence is threatened by a folly Yet, through its impact, we have realized what it means to exist in essence Nevertheless, we are everywhere Our socially distant co-existence is now a global social support network We are the substance that nurtures life everywhere We are the beings racing to live free Free from what is racking havoc through our race The human race now has a much more brutal common enemy We had evolved through a series of phases in this life Thi...

In 2020...

We defied the odds. We make history in the present. 'Normal' is a thing of the past. Together means miles apart. Not all theories are not potent. The context is valuable content. Our survival remains constant. The reality means your breath intake is consistent. The wall is the law. A winning trump card is forbidden. And home shielded us from the omen. We understood that all things are possible. Although apart, we were more unified. Unquenchable flames were ignited in the youths. Productivity in our beds became the best option. We lived even when death looked us right in the eyes. The old generation came to appreciate the "demonic" technology. We realised profiteering was not the way of only the rich. The selfish attitudes of the yesterday are the survival tactics of today. The youth exuberance came with a new vibe. We held rallies and turned tables. We got beaten, burned, broken and barred. Then we were left with our dreams to wear on our sleeves. To all the fallen so...

Footslog

Life is beautifully designed Crafted with handsome hands It goes on no matter what happens. Interestingly, We laugh at ourselves to the core With tears of Joy We tease each other too Correcting the minor mistakes we'd made Knowing that there's no easy way out “Simple” You inspire me to know how wealthy that means And I don't want to see defeat Because things got complicated and tough But you also believe that conditions aren't permanent That the situations only get better with hard work A walk in the Livingstone Park   Prodigy, Having confidence with complements I see that in your eye all the time I see how tender your heart can be You’re tenacious with a touch of softness Grace I share in your all You radiate wisdom in its glory I'm a catalyst for progress Thus, believing in every step of the way I'll be here  You'll be here too So let's keep marching on in life

Beyond words and dreams

You gazed I smiled The most expensive feeling yet It was the 'at first sight' experience The circumstance was greased with grace to a prayer I believed had been answered If love is Mathematics, please be my calculator I will be your dictionary if you need to make any statement May we look farther than the usual The situation might look less than standard but that's an understatement I want to live the rest of my life with you laughing and growing together We would go out and return home to where our love is brewed Overflowing and grooming generations unconditionally My love don't have to sweep you off your feet It would lift you off the ground anytime you fall As I look forward to being your pilot and making you soar to new horizons Let's walk not where the path may lead but create ours to where home is Beauty is something your life defines You're God's standard for intelligence and awesomeness For your compassionate heart is vast With ...

Transition

The aftermath of the actions we took when we were young, with strong faith, hope, and determination. The decisions we made when we still believed those wild dreams would someday become realities, and oh! they did but not all because, Some faded out silently, some dried up in the desert, others got soaked and settled  at the bottom of the deep blue sea, oops!! Nevertheless, we keep on chasing after those we can, so it becomes a reality. Given the prospects, we have come far enough to give up and we have much more  to cover distance beyond the reach of the eye. Oh! Yes, we can! Marking time on a spotless spot is meaningless So we’re marching on from the right spot to greater heights. Don't throw in the towel in those trying moments, they come once in a while. Work towards success and make it happen. Take cues from how you made it this far, affirm your grounds and carry on.  Worry not because it does not take away tomorrow's trouble but today's ...

PEACE EQUALS LIFE

IMCS PAX ROMANA PAX GHANA PEACE PROJECT (PAGHAPP) MESSAGE FOR THIS YEAR, 2016 “The mountains and hills may crumble, but my love for you will never end; I will keep forever my promise of peace. So says the Lord who loves you” (Isaiah 54:10). Peace is a necessity.  It is a prerequisite to every final decision and step that to be taken. What more could a community search for? We as a people can fend for ourselves, if they leaders (political parties) believe we need assistance in these days, then it should not be on disguised conditions. In those days and months past, they had much more room to have supported us to make our livelihood better. We know the difference between the sunlight and lanterns. Whereas they pretended not to have been aware of our various needs over the years, we cannot compromise now. Please do not make the generation suffer your nuisance and negligence. Over the years, our leaders in Ghana have in one or another, maltreated and denied us the citiz...
