It’s been a whirlwind of a week, birthday celebrations and some quality time for contemplation!
Friday last week, heralded the one-year celebration of the Exotic Marigold Boutique in East London. As you already know, it’s one of my favorite places in East London. I always find some treasures, either boho-chic apparel or accessories… these always are a showstopper.
So here’s my little poem for EMB, it’s called “I am One Year Old”
It was a starry night celebration of good friendship, Gin, Delicious food, and some much-needed, retail therapy.
Thank you, EMB, here’s to all of you, may you grow from success to success.
This special evening was also the precursor to my birthday weekend and some quality time spent at the Katberg Eco Golf Estate. A place of tranquility, peace, and calm. I could not have been blessed with better. Moreover, greetings from friends, colleagues, and family from around the globe, is always humbling and my inner feeling of connectedness just expands.
What’s a birthday without cake, and here’s my gratitude to Amber and Ocean @ 2 Sisters Le Vegan Café. A decadent cheesecake, like no other.
The ‘cherry on top of this cake’ so to speak, is a poem written for me by the extremely talented, Sisipho D Mteti, it’s called, ‘I celebrate You‘
I could not have asked for a better Birthday gift! Sisipho, I wish you well on your writing journey, it’s time! Thank You.
Watch this space for a poem that commemorates Youth Day this Wednesday.
Enjoy Poetry Lovers,
