Inauguration Day: Biden And Harris

 Things meant to go, go away,

The things meant to come,
arrive,

You may talk loudly,
like the thunder ⛈️⚡,
in the clouds,
Or not at all,
like the steady Atlas 🏔️,
You may whisper,
like the dawn wind 🌬️,
Or roll on your back,
like the waves of a raging ocean,
It is all there,
willed,
impassioned,
timed,

Where there is a will, 
there is a way.
Where there is passion,
there is creativity 🍓.
Where there is timing,
there is maturity.
Nurture the will, 
uplift passion
appreciate patience.
They are the nectar,
in a dandelion flower 🌻

Walking into the city series 1 by Thomas Rogers Muyunga Mukasa

I enjoy writing and when I do I feel so fulfilled. I started taking time to do serious creative writing when I volunteered to teach English to a school of 200 students in a rural district in Africa. I had to write stories about rural lifestyles with examples that my students would be familiar with. This got them excited. They felt they knew what was going on and the stories were from their own vicinity. We could not afford many text books. I had the only copy used to teach the English syllabus. I taught for four years and my school as well as the students were ranked among the the first five schools in that district.  Creative writing enables me to make my senses work for me. In these series we shall answer such questions like: what city? Contrasts of regions within the city, the events that I see, or get to hear, you will walk with me and get to hear the sounds that get to my ear. Or you will be a bystander taking in certain urban related events as they happen. I live 3 mile...

He has worked for over 15 years with the marginalized and people living with HIV/Aids/TB in Africa.

The 'anti-poverty' class is that class a step or two shy of middle-class. Three greatest moments he recalls were a child headed family able to successfully pay for the land and house their late parents had left behind. They were to be evicted but it did not happen. The children went on to complete high school. The second moment was of a mother living with HIV establishing a chicken poultry farm 8 miles outside of Kampala, Uganda. She saw all her four children complete university. The third was of a woman in her late 20's who havin...
