MY RACE


I'm the image of my heart.
Where Candy's or kola is produced.
You are your mind,
What's tells you to move or pause.
 My colour?
They don't refine or define me
Black or white
Pink or green
Yellow or blue
This are colours that reflect the physical,
Like clouds covering the sky
They hide the real me but never me.
So to the black skin,
Don't tone your skin to be white
 Tone your character which is the real you,
 habits that has held you captive
With chains of pain dripping down your eye.
Tone your mouth to speak only the truth,
Lying lips get rotten.
Be proud of your colour,
And hey!I'm black doesn't mean my heart is coated with evil.
My colour can change, my heart I can't!
So see through my heart not my colour,
Let love flow through us,release the burden in your heart.
Stop hating me,
Accept me,for my root is golden
Scares like blue diamond,
I'm worth more than rubbies,so don't sentence me..
Black or white?
I'm who I build my self to become..
And if you think I'm ulgy,look deeper..
Like air I can't stop existing,
I'm as important as every creature..
Lovable like the birds, beautiful as the lilies..
I'm happier,
For now I'm proud of my colour....

LIFE

Dear reader, I'm sure you're wondering why I'm writing to you on such short notice. I'm a person who believes time is running out. We live in a world filled with endless problems, yet we manage to navigate through with masks of fake smiles. I write to those like myself.  You may not have endured the same trials as I have, and your story may be different in its own way.  But know that comparing our problems won't diminish mine or justify yours.  It's curious how we find hope in the tales of others. So, I hope you'll learn to let go and trust in God.  I hope you'll forgive yourself and others who may have caused you pain and resentment.  I hope you'll learn to live in the present and aspire to a brighter future.  I hope you'll discern truth from deception when others attempt to mislead you.  I hope you'll realize that true love begins with self-love before extending to others.  I hope you'll embrace inner peace amidst life's

SAVED BY GRACE

It's been more than a year I post here. And I'm glad to be back. Journey with me has I drop Inspiring piece for you to feed on DAILY. Today's piece is titled " saved by Grace" and Its a reminder of how much Christ suffered to give us a new life.  No matter how far you've from God, you can always find a new life in Christ. You don't have to continue in sin. Christ paid it for us all to live freely under his GRACE. If you purchase my thoughts,  they won't taste like chocolate.  Discerning between my past and present is a future tense that instills hope within me. How gracious to be born into what appears as a mirage, yet somehow,  we've navigated through the narrow path.  What if he hadn't taken the risk?  What if he hadn't paid the price? A slave we would all become, But how sweet it is to hear about the man who bore my limitations upon his shoulders, settled the debt I owed, and still claims me as his own.  Every day, I stumble into sin, li

PINCH THE HEAVENS (morning coffee collection)

I'm Ruth, and I'm excited to have you here with me.This is my blogspot and over a year now I've been posting poems and short stories here.  In this season, I want to add something new on the table which I termed "Morning coffee". I understand that not everyone loves to take in coffee in the morning while some wouldn't mind midnight coffee. Inspite of this, coffee made from varieties of natural ingredients is good for the body and that's what " morning coffee" is here to do. This season is going to be different from the previous season, I will be dropping both peoms and other interesting  piece to refresh you for the day ahead, and I hope it makes you feel good just like your coffee. To day I will be dropping a short poem and its titled...                                             PINCH THE HEAVENS Is your heart coated with scales of pain? Does  your back hurt like s
