Alexis Roderick equestrianism

To those who might not know, equestrianism is the skill or sport of horse riding.

Before she met and married Billy, Alexis was an accomplished career woman at Morgan Stanley, a wealth management company, with a love of horses. She always loved riding them and participating in equestrian competitions. At one point the now 37-year-old was active in the US equestrian federation

Since being married, her love of horses and equestrianism has spread to her husband. While he does not compete, the couple has been spotted at the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center watching the showjumping of the Winter Equestrian Festival.

To further support his wife's love of horses and sports involving horses, Billy Joel dropped an exorbitant amount of $3.5 million and bought her beautifully maintained five-acre farm where she could keep the equestrian horses that she already owned, buy more and continue practising her riding. The ranch is designed for horses that specialize in dressage, an equestrian sport where horse and rider are expected to perform predetermined movements and walks from memory.

It was an odd purchase for the accomplished musician since all his properties before have been beachfront properties. He made a huge and expensive exception for his wife just to make her happy.

From the above Alexis Roderick bio, it is clear to see that she is an extremely private person despite being in the limelight due to her husband's fame. She has no social media presence, but from the small glimpses of her and her extravagant life, she looks happy and content with her husband and their two beautiful daughters.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
