Declare It!

Podcasts are becoming a way of life. And you can never have too many. In May 2019, I had the pleasure of being a guest on the “Declare it!” Podcast with Khadijah RBZ. It was my first time on a Podcast. There was laughter, girl talk and some declaring. Take a listen and make sure to head over to iTunes,…

Simplicity is in the soil

There was a time when I hated plants/flowers in homes. I hated the thought of taking life from its source just to adorn one’s home. Honestly, I hated the thought of receiving flowers as gifts more than I despised plants. But hey, dislike for one made me dislike all. Flowers as gifts are the worst sign of love in my…

Vulnerability

I admire my daughter’s, and I respect their innocence, their frailty as well as their strength. I look at myself and understand that I am growing because of them. They are teaching me more than I could ever teach them. What they are teaching me is how to see me because I see them. I was one who never wanted…

Reciprocity

There is nothing I can do about love not reciprocated. There is nothing I can do about it at all. You give, you push, and you pour into. It’s taken, catapulted and watered greatly yet never invested properly. How is it that us women are left with the dead end of the stick? How are we so giving and then…

Parasite

She poured it all out. Gave him the better parts of her igniting his fire. He was her Earth this vast monument of potential that lead her to water him-freely. Never wanting a drought, she poured from wells hidden deep within. The more he expanded, the frailer she became. She was his host, giving ample nourishment to his dreams. The more…

Sour Tears

They tell her to write soft, invite love to her words. How? All she knows is hurt. The truth speaks through every word. Each word gives insight into every woman who has been scorned, left, and abandoned. Love never showed up; the pain did. She desired love, and she wanted it, she needed it. Yet that’s not what showed up. How…
