THUNDER



Thunder is an angry lion

he crashes in the sky
and when the storm crumbles
the distant thunder rumbles 

After the flash of lighting
the little ones he frightens
gnashing his teeth against the sky
rolling and crashing

He hides in the storm and,
boom! the angry thunder emerges
howling long and loud

Hi, I'm glad you checked in. It's been a while I posted on beauty tips, I promise to do this more often. Following the recent "virgin hair" trend, more and more ladies have ditched using hair relaxers and are embracing the Afro look of an African un-permed hair.  Although the pain and difficulty associated with the management of the African virgin hair has discouraged some from continuing in this trend, yet many are on the journey of achieving that great natural Afro look with their virgin hair.

Perfect Gent

Image
Eyes like snow Lips as rose Towering and strong So were his nose Face kind and noble Pure and dependable With a glow of beauty And genuine masculinity Voice endearing with hope His voice sounded like the wind Blowing swiftly over my ears I fell completely As I gazed continually Into those cold eyes of his I wish for more than anything For a gentle touch I wanted him to hold me Effortlessly against his masculine cavity To feel the scent and warmth Of his cold embrace As I tried to move closer Maybe kiss him if I could The greatest surprise of all Came when I finally saw This perfect gent I saw Was just a hallucination.

Risen from Ruins

Time goes, tick and tock, Not to pause, not to stop, Not a moment to be a friend. Not to care of how i do. Tragedies strikes, ship on the wreck, Hope and life all to sink, But greater heights my heart is set, So the struggle not to die. Risen From Ruins , the day is come, When crown shall be for crosses; Blessing for curses, boom for doom, And medal worn around my neck  Poem by: Her Excellency. Model: Tumminy Pepple

The Grand Delusion

Image
Who remembers that famous line "I am a sucker for love"  Well I am not. Naturally I believe in love, like most of us do, but you see, unlike a lot of general ideas, notions and beliefs, I have other ideas. Don't get me wrong, I know how it feels to be in that special person's arms, how it feels to be embraced and caressed by that person. To hear their slow breathing, to perceive their unique yet confounding fragrance, to be touched by them in the least sensitive places of the human anatomy, yet feel so electrified by the gentlest perusal. Yes, it is an amazing yet frightening emotion. Not many of us have ever known that feeling and the sad truth is that most of us will only get to feel that way a handful of times in our short existence. Personally, I am still holding out hope against hope that I will be turned to a moron again. Yes, that's exactly what that emotion does to the human brain and mind. Yet, this time around, I am going to be a hardworking, b...

A love journey

Image
Let's travel on a journey Far away from home To a place where its just us two And fill our hearts with merry We'll sing with birds and fly with kite We'll build our castle made of sand We'll touch the ocean and climb mountains We may touch heaven too Our hearts and mind united as one And many more untold The birds will hum, and rivers flow They'll sing a song for us both We'll dance around the fire place Beyond the horizon of the setting sun We'll tell dark tales of terror And then hold hands in fright. We'll always be together Until the day we're old.

Diary Series; Capture the moment

Image
Tribute from the children. The moment we received news of your death, our world caved in, the seams of our hearts came undone, we died within. Sleep eluded us, we laid awake all night. If we could write a story about you, dear mother it would be the greatest story ever told since the beginning of mankind. Words are not enough to tell how much you meant to us. Your image still fills our heads. I zoned out. I thought of my own mum back at home, would I say these things too when she dies? And my dad? And my brothers? My only sister? Another Story in the Diary Series; Miriam's Diary.  Click here to read . I needed to walk but I just sat there listening to the drowned out voices of my friends as they sang a song to their mother. I remember all the times they made jokes on her, or complained bitterly about how tiring she was. She was the last thing they needed in their life. But, here, now, it’s different. And they’re not faking it. They really do need her. They do. Peopl...
