A look into the African continent

Asking why a continent so beautiful has not had the required development.
Amazing how the continent is underdeveloped.Our leaders can turn this continent into a paradise for its people.Only they have to love it more to do this. And the people have to even love it more to demand it.

Africa's development can't wait. There is still a long way to go. Its amazing how the continent is struggling to get the full benefits of its rich natural resources. It is even more amazing how these resources have made little impact on the people here. The hope of the continent lies with its people. Learn more on the continent.

The Reality of Love

A bubbling of bright coloured illusions
Emerge everywhere, from nowhere
Chasing one another closely
As if to out ran each other for an enviable diamond medal
To touch the silver linings of the bright blue skies


The race leaves a funny feeling
A feeling so confusing yet adorable
a feeling that makes you want to run into a land of delusions
Never to heed to the burning calls to make you budge
Or to nudge

But as the bubbling burst into nothingness
Removing the weighty blankets that covers the emptiness of realities
It slapped me in the face
The harsh sense of reality hitting me
Like the feel of Nana's Odum stool in the corner of the clayey kitchen
I sighed

But like the beauty that the bubbling brings
To change the world around it
I hold on to this sweet feeling
Till I hold on to its reality
The reality of love

The unending glow it radiates
Emerge everywhere, from nowhere
Surely illuminating in the darkness
That often makes you feel alone

Hush. It is more than an illusion.
It is simple, yet knotty.
It is reassuring, unbending, sometimes illusory.
It is comforting yet so strong, hot and sturdy.
It is even stanch more like the huge mountains in nearby Eguafo.
It is stubborn yet so supple
That is the reality of love

Inside Your Soul

Shirley Asiedu-Addo

Inside your soul
Deep inside your beautiful soul
A yearning rises
To love a child hungry
To cloth a stranger cold
To reach out and hold a hand too weak to reach out to yours

Inside your soul
Deep inside your beautiful soul
A yearning rises
To lift the mild and frail
To cuddle and to mold
To reach out and hold a hand too weak to reach out to yours

Inside your soul
There is a yearning to help transform
Even the unknown and old
To listen to the errant and bold

The yearning rises
Till you stop and act
Its a fact
Till you stop and act
This yearning continues to rise
Deep inside your beautiful soul

The Morning Freshness

I felt cold
I could still not open my eyes
Guys, this is good
Better than my favourite food
With eyes closed i said a prayer.
It is a beautiful morning
One with promise, I know
I still could not open my eyes
And so I continued
Enjoying the cool breeze of the Gulf of Guinea
Which like a wide blanket, lie to the South of the wretched ancient buildings.
Which tell great histories of the good, bad and the beautiful
I do not wish to go out
No, not yet.
I do not wish to go out
To the narrow street
Waving to known faces as to greet
No, I do not seem the find the inner strength
To move the tired me out of the place i lie.
So I lie,
Enjoying the cool breeze of the Gulf of Guinea
Which like a wide blanket lie to the south o the wretched ancient buildings.
It is morning
I am not in a hurry
To rally all strength.
Today I will enjoy the morning
It is morning, a beautiful morning
I will enjoy it and bless the Lord He gave it.

My World

This is what God gave me.
I am grateful to him

I Dream

I dream,
I dream of a world of pleasant people
A world of peace and less harm
Where you are at ease to farm
And eat the fruits of your labour
Without seeking anyone's favour
Take a deep breath
Say a prayer, abandon all evil thoughts and seek
With a pure heart
And a sure mind
Help to quickly Bind
All that brings sorrow
for now and the morrow
Work to seek peace on earth
With all you guts
Help make this dream a reality
