The Unknown Steps of Man

Image
Poem by: Raphael Sarfo Oh how dark and mysterious the path of man leads A day as bright as the sun yet so much uncertain where the step of man lands!  Where is my next step?  Into the luck of life or the miseries of it?  The fortunes of life or the agonies thereof?  The creator alone is sure.  Oh how I wish says my innermost man, that the Creator alone guides Dedicated to all Gone Souls

Be Calm! Stay Calm!

Image
Poem by: YAO BESAH DZANADO The eyes of the masses are fixed in a wondrous gaze  They watched in awe in their minds as their eyes betrayed their thoughts  Their hearts wander within the ignorance of their supposed wisdom  Adventure, mystery, famine, suffering, and poverty: which is truth and which is not? Some running to their door post in the pretense of deprivation creates the impression that their assertion is the truth  You who know the depth of their ignorance and wrong judgments, please be calm and remain calm  Let them dance in the pool of their ignorance for surely they may drown someday  Stay calm and remain calm at least for the sake of the few who know the truth and act differently Be calm and remain calm at least for the sake of the few ignorant ones who seek the truth in sincerity  Be calm and remain calm for the story may not be the same the day after tomorrow  Be calm! Stay calm!

However, these encounters often blossom into moments of profound connection. One such instance is the bond that is formed between a group of individuals. The memories of our meeting places still linger in my mind, as vivid as the taste of freshly tapped palm wine. I distinctly recall a time when I had to relinquish a cherished position due to the negative comments of those around me. It was a pivotal moment when I was called back to resume my role, as those who had temporarily taken over realized the challenges it entailed. I view this as a divine intervention. Despite being asked to take full control, we became effective partners in our work. I humbly sought their guidance, which provided me with invaluable learning opportunities. Another significant encounter occurred when I felt compelled to seek a unique connection with the Divine. I ...

OH! Death

Poem by: Raphael Sarfo Oh life dear, let me know truly your very nature. I want to know truly, your principles. May I temper not, what triggers your everlasting leave. Yet a flash of thunder-lightning may last longer when you choose to seize existence. So that I don’t take you for granted, Oh life dear. You require so much of a man But do I alone take care of you? When the faults and woes of others don’t appeal your pardon Yes, I want to know truly, how I will pamper you to dwell with me in perpetual harmony, your fullness. Dedicated to all gone souls

Unmasking the Teaser: A Tale of Revelations

Image
Oh, the joy of running into an old friend from high school amid my busy life! I always thought he was a ray of sunshine, spreading happiness wherever he went. Little did I know, he was a sadistic teaser, getting a kick out of making others uncomfortable. It was quite a shock to discover his true colors. One day, we were at a gathering and he decided to target someone with his teasing. The poor guy was left speechless and visibly upset. But when the tables were turned and he was teased back, oh boy, did he lose his cool! It was almost comical how quickly he went from teasing to full-on rage mode. After witnessing this drama unfold, I had a moment of clarity. Treat others as you would like to be treated, right? Well, some people just can't handle being on the receiving end of their own medicine. Especially those sadistic teasers. Oh, what a joy they are to be around!
