876 days ago : You Kept Your Promise
Ronnie, my son, you kept your promise.
You said you would protect me and keep me from harm.
You kept your promise.
You kept your promise. Never, never to cause me to cry.
You said you would take care of your mamma until the day I die.
You kept your promise.
This path that you’ve taken is not your choice, darling.
God gave you a talent, gave you love to sing to the world.
Son, you sang, not sing.
You sang to the world and the whole world heard you.
You brought out love in some,
Joy in others and totally made happy mothers.
You gave so much, and now I know you are dancing with your father.
Son, you kept your promise.
The poem,You kept your promise, was written by Mrs. Mary Ida Vandross - a fitting tribute to her son, Luther Ronzoni Vandross, Jr. It was recited at his funeral.

27 November: Greetings Mr. Nkosi,
I wanted share with you my work and hoping you will enjoy it.
Humble your Self
I have been humbled by your presence in me
And;
Very much blessed and honored by your patience, love and support
I never been so taken and so in love as I am with you
Thank you; Thank you; Thank you
Thank you for your humbleness; kindness; modesty
And;
Your being you
It took so many mistakes and heart aches to realize that you want nothing but his being
And;
Righteousness;
He seeks nothing but his stronger half
He thinks of nothing than his incomplete being
You’re his world;
His joy and his forever love
You’re his only one
His better half
He seeks nothing but her forgiveness
Will you forgive him?
He is SO, SO, sorry.
