African tales have tails of morals
refrains of chorals
and sometimes show hearts of abhorals
II
African tales hold wise mails,
show hurting fails,
clarify heavenly bails
III
African tales can cause wails,
narrate heroic hails
and their wounding nails
IV
African tales are now like its porridges;
dilutings severe, erasing its sweetners
making its charming captivities turn dung

Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)
