Deafening drumbeats
frenzied heartbeats
a volley of arrows
rapturous roars
magic and miracle
embrace and toast an oracle.
This event is uncanny
and starts a new journey
in which his essence
and hers will try to make sense
as they stumble through spaces
and times of life in all its phases
Throbs and floats
Floats and throbs
Rocks, gently, rocks
Feel, listen, sense
Sense, listen, feel
Feel, listen, sense,
A world out there
for sure; a world out there
waiting, waiting for sure
But what is curiosity’s cure
If not a questing urgency
that creates an emergency?
Find out soon, no, right now!
Now, now, now, now, noooow!
Come, oh, come into my arms
Oh, bearer of mystical charms
come now; come receive your slap
Oh sweet cry; you many now all clap
He arrived
Two years on, the world is in turmoil
He is terrified; the cries make him recoil
“Africa, Oh Africa, Oh Africa
Africa, Oh Africa, Oh Africa
Dear Africa is suddenly gone
Why did you leave us alone?
Why Oh why? Tell us or we’ll die
Oh, mother cry for our Africa, cry.
She departed.
