At the father of two, he began collecting thoughts that he anticipated sharing with his children.  Pieces that began as short stories and reminders written on napkins and matchbooks turned into books of poetry. With the support and encouragement of his children, the audience has broadened to include a broad spectrum of readers. 

He is an observer and frequently a participant in his poetry.  His lines capture poignant events conjured up by life. His style of writing, much like a camera, captures the emotions — tragedies and joys of living — as single events in time. Through his lens, he has a clear view of life’s stage. His, is a talent heralded by many, as the most imaginative and perceptive since Nikki Giovanni. 

"Tears of a Rose" is the first in a series of writing pursuits. This volume of poetry is followed by a second and equally stimulating set of verse — “Escape from Cape Coast Castle.”  He invites the reader on a symbolic journey through a “middle passage” of life that recounts oral history, and links to the genetic artifacts of culture and race in America.  

A third volume, entitled “Rare Flowers in Life’s Garden” follows the “Escape…”  In this volume, Ron talks candidly about relationships, but not necessarily romance.  Here he looks at the experiences in life that are unique to each individual and common to life.  

Ron’s deepest relationship is addressed in volume four – “PSALM of the Heart-Fortress.” In this book, he tells the story of an intimate relationship from several perspectives. It is a SPIRIT to Spirit communication between the reader and God. You will be blessed by the insight and wit that lives in the lines of his cleverly spun verse. 

In his latest book, Ron replies to readers that have asked for a book dedicated to  love poetry.  The response is “Only Love.”
