RONKE….


Ronke  beaming with smiles
Ronke damsel of the glowing moon
Ronke  a name to be desired
Ronke silky as the morning sun
Ronke an archetype of the morning sun beauty
Ronke still as the morning water
Ronke light of ile ominira
Ronke steady as the sun
Ronke the heart of  true beauty
Ronke glitters of the evening star
Ronke light of ile ominira
Ronke daughter of  Atanda
A replica of  Afoke
When beauty begat beauty
The result becomes beautiful
Ronke the tale in the mouth of the strength of ile ominira

Ronke daughter of  Atanda and Afoke

You are the seed of moonlight guided copulation
As the moon shines on your parent in the course of copulation
They knew it will bring forth a ‘wonder’ child
Thus your name   R  O  N  K  E  …

Meanwhile, at some point you will be disrespected by those who once respected you especially if they are more privileged than you in acquiring these life assets. They begin to address you in terms of their experience gained where you are lagging. Handle it well. Wow! It is a tough place to b...

The Journey of Becoming: Embracing Every Moment

There is always more to what we will BECOME—the dreams in our hearts, the pain in our chests. The highs and lows. The fleeting thoughts. The disappointing and embarrassing moments. The truths we told. The parts of us that stayed hidden. The stories we shared, the ones we are proud of, and the ones we left untold. The families that shaped us—our hopes, challenges, and desperations. Our nationalities, race, and identities. The clear paths and the undefined. The special moments. The grey days and the ones spent lingering in bed. The days we couldn’t see ourselves for what we could be. The defeating, deafening silence from those we once called friends. The lies we told ourselves about who we really are. The starting over days. The years we lost. The feigned laughter, the genuine one, the fights and quarrels with self and society. The hate, envy, and pretense from others. The ones that kept us going and the ones that brought us down. The moments that hit us where it truly matters. The love,...
