Poetry for Change
The theme, African Slavery, is close to my heart as I was born in Ghana. The people are friendly and wonderful to be with. My memories of growing up there is that of hot weather, beautiful plant life, forests, wide spaces, language, and culture.

Clipity- Clop
Itty bitty feet run around
In a clamor of clip-clops
That resonate in echoes that abound
In a round of clapping shrieking pops
That reverberate with laughter
That lightens the heart of burdens
And a heaviness that cower
When faced with the merry melody of laughter.
Let your Itty bitty feet lead,
Lead you into mischief and solve
Your way out of problems that feed
Your will to be cheery when faced by laws above
Of society that set limitations, in Isolation,
For some, while others run amuck.
Let your glee flee the deadened quiet of conventions
By proving your worth with mirth that gets you unstuck.

My poem received the above certificate of achievement.
May’s Spring
My eyes are always turned to the sky,
Where beauty and simplicity vie
For supremacy in an empty spacy.
Birds of all kinds fly by, flocking, migrating,
Setting new habits for their chicks’ living
Quarters that are overflowing with forests, changing
With each new flock that’s arriving.
Live honoring nature’s power,
Its giving nature that is a bower
Of safety when you need a lover
Without motives, who is only a supporter.
Embrace your brethren in humanity,
Their races receding into the vicinity
Of acceptance, that all Man is emotionally
And physically the same, all have red blood.
Feelings, passions, and red flowing blood
Saunter into each’s body in a flood
Of confusion that needs sorting and bud,
Swamping everyone with a unique personage.
Burgeon into your character,
Let your wings flutter,
Soar like a flower petal as the breezer
Tries to alter your course, but you are its conqueror.
