Description
Breakfast at the Hibiscus is the continuation of a series of conversations and experiences reflected through poetry and prose. The Hibiscus presents as a noun and a verb, as it is tangible; however, it goes through a process, providing beauty where it is placed. Breakfast is the author's favourite meal, and he shares this preference with many others, as this meal provides comfort and a realization of luxury that most take for granted.
"She is most beautiful in the morning.
The night's rest does its magic, and she is renewed.
As radiant the sunrise, and she is energized.
His eyes witness a real sleeping beauty, restored organically, as if the Creator revisited to once again admire and retouch His masterpiece.
He is a recipient,
cherishing the gift that is her.
His eyes beholding her,
a true beauty at sunrise.
Breakfast is served."
~Breakfast | a Moment, an Experience, a Lesson
Breakfast at the Hibiscus continues the provocation of the realities of life, cementing the notion that much of life is lived in a reactive state.

Person
After many years of being persuaded to write, and receiving a gift from his mom with the inscription, "Happiness is writing your own story," Christopher began to put pen to paper.Christopher's first self-published book, titled "You Happened," is dedicated to his son, representing the gift that children are to families and to the world. As a quintessential Renaissance man, a student of modern architecture and interior design, a trumpeter who now favours the softer tone of the flugelhorn and knows how to provide the beat on the drums and also likes to show his appreciation for family and friends through his culinary expressions, writing-through poetry and prose-provides Christopher with a platform for reflection, expression, and direction.As a lifelong learner, Christopher proposes that everything we experience brings with it a lesson, and along the way we cross the threshold at one of two entrances-to become better or bitter. Thus far, for Christopher, the introvert became a leader, a motivational speaker, a coach, and, most importantly, he learned to appreciate his voice.
