It’s Summer Time!


Fabulous Oasis in The Libyan Sahara

The Beauty of Africa

Almost a whole year

Of heat, fun, rain, forest, game

Africa alone

Your Summer Bucket List

Summer Time

It brings heat we love

Vacation and fun, or work

Paid tours, others gain

#WQWWC – Faith


Faith Candles

Faith is a Fight and it’s got nothing to do with Right

It is stepping out of the Shadow with all Candour

Daring to Believe rather than be Deceived

Leaving behind the Lacklustre and glowing in Substance

It is a Call to walk divinely and not Fall…

Amidst the Confusion from internal external Intrusion

Faith without Works is just common Talks!

Show me your Faith, I will not Hesitate

To identify what you Hate, but why the Haste.

Show me your Faith, and I will tell if it’s a Bait

Or Love wrapped up in Human form from Above

Faith, I repeat is no joke, not in the Least

Mine isn’t!

Challenge Haiku

Welcome to our world!


She came out in all her glory, victorious amidst all the others. A princess indeed to add her part and matter on this side of eternity! This is for you Princess aka Baby Isaiah Etuk and all the new-born babies coming out or have arrived! https://ronovanwrites.wordpress.com/2016/06/20/ronovanwrites-weekly-haiku-poetry-prompt-challenge-102-birthcheer/

A Princess Popped out!

Surviving much blood

Pushed through matrix cheering loud

Hey world, See who’s here!

Challenge Haiku

Fresh wind delight


I missed out on this challenge last week but decided to attempt it all the same.
My second haiku is in appreciation of my daughter Imani Naomi. Naomi means “pleasant, beautiful, delightful”

Swinging Leaves

With more than a tease

The soft wind swings fresh leaves to

And fro, oh! Such bliss

You are…

A breath of fresh air

Delightsome, showing you care

My sweet Imani!

#LyricalMonday – Count on One


I’m excited that I’m pushing beyond the ‘no-inspiration’ zone and doing this fresh. Someone’s got to be thanked for this. wink

Challenge WQWWC

#WQWWC – Rebirth


I must have existed before,
As a call to Rebirth is a new tour
A choice to become someone more
Doesn’t mean I want to be on four
Unwrap me, set me apart, enquire
Revive me, put on display of fire
Let me blaze as I set trail
Lighted up, not glazed or frail
Let breath for another called Divine
Extend and fill these lungs of mine
Let my heart beat to the rhythm
As I cherish that which You have given
May this new existence be rewritten
Here’s to Love, Life and all that’s bidden

 …now I’m Born again!
