A Village and Her People...



Open my hut

Open the door

Open the bar

Open your destiny



Lay down your head

Lay down quietly

Look for your forefathers

Look, seek you shall find



Though I strangled you in the dead of the night

Though I did not let you breath

I have chosen to let you go

I have chosen to give you your freedom celebration



Nine times you shall go round

Nine times you shall break their yolk

Nine times you shall look to the hill

Nine times you shall open the door



What door my child?

What hope my child?

What love my child?

What next my child?



Beautiful beginnings I hold

Beautiful plentiful seeds

Beautiful land to sow

Beautiful yields my dear



I know your story

I know your land

I know your story

I know your end



Get the waters of the lake

Get the coffee from the land

Get the seeds

Get them all as a covering



Where it is green

Where you hold your pot

Where you only see the desert plants

Where you only see the gatekeepers





Let go

Let go

Let go

Let go



No looking back

He that heareth the tale

No looking back

A past of a people settled



What I owe you is love

What I owe you is settled

What I owe you is done



The village and her people are settled

My hands are washed

Your hands are washed

You go your way

You are now blessed

J C Leroux Wine Tasting : A Delight!

Good events are a rare case in Nairobi, not to forget a good drink. Willam Soklin, a  New York wine merchant once said, " What is  the definition of good wine? It should start  and  end with a smile." True to that saying, the wine was plenty and delightful at the J C Leroux wine tasting held at Alliance Francaise yesterday, 10th May,2012. The  wine tasting  courtesy  of J C Leroux  Sparkling Wine  from Distell Winemasters opened the 21st  European Film Festival at Alliance Francaise with participating countries including: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Slovak Republic, Spain, Sweden, Serbia & Switzerland.   Below are  the sights and sounds of  the crowd and the wine, J C Leroux in sweet and dry variants that  paired up with the all sorts of cheeses and made the cocktail worth the while.

The Woman...you ought to love. from my book,Letting Go!

Women are beautiful, their charm is ever inviting. Their innocence is intact even at the age of 40. It somewhat feels that their souls are inhabited by ‘a little girls spirit’- Amidst it all they follow into the hunted hands within an aim of a pointed arrow. Women hence require three A’s. Attention, Affirmation, Affection. These words are not mine. They are from the spirit of Joep. Joep is a voice of lady reason. He speaks and the still heart of the lady listens. The lady in a sense is me. But steps to understanding this Lady are hard cracking mathematics. So I urge you to kindly read her writing. Joep says a lady needs ‘Attention’….... Attention is expressed by listening to her noticing her and complimenting her. Joep says a lady needs Affirmation. Tell your lady, you love making love to her. Say it! Don’t stop saying what you mean and feel. Joep says show your lady Attention. Study your lady. You know what she likes right? Then do exactly that, love her to bits. Bring h

Daddy

My memories of you are vivid, Days have gone by and I am learning to miss you, Dearly beloved--Father of mine. Life is teaching me to be grateful, Stars keep shinning my way, Laughter echo's away. You hold the keys to my life, I just want you to know, That I now have peace in my heart. You were there when I had my first kiss, You were there when I graduated, And you were there when LOVE become who I am. I love you Daddy I love you Daddy You are a lifetime of my many kisses. xx
