Heaven Sent

The wise men once said that the longer you wait for something,
The more you’ll treasure it when you get hold of it,
We had a late night chit-chat, she sounded like an angel from disney land,
Maybe she’s heaven sent, perhaps, a gift from the skies?

Rest In Paradise Fellow Soldier

He would lead the herd as we ambulated down the dusty village road headed south of my forefather’s land,
Upon reacting our destination, Tyso would chase after squirrels for almost an hour,
Then he would come back heads high, carrying it to remind me his net worth,
He was my best man, my helper, my only son, the most devoted best friend I’ve ever, Rest In Paradise My Fellow Soldier!!!😭😭😭

Kaluki, My First Love

I was an innocent boy until my first love Kaluki taught me how to kiss,
When i first met her, i mistakenly thought she was a shy girl,

Still young and naive, i decided to allow her to lead our love journey,

Kalahari, “The Great Thirsty Land”

Despite the harsh climatic conditions, Kalahari is home of wildlife inclusive of wildebeests, springboks, kudu and the brown hyaena,
Not to forget prey eating birds like the martial eagle, giant eagle owl and also falcons,
A variety of reptiles also dwell upon the desert including Cape cobras, puff adders and lizards,
Lest we forget the amphibians who are also able to survive here, the bush veld rain frog and the tremolo sand frog.

The African Way [Part 1]

In my tribe, Akamba, women are not allowed to slaughter animals,
It is the sole duty of a man, to butcher animals then the woman cooks it,
When food is ready they are neither permitted to eat any meat from the legs,
Nor the part above the hooves of a goat, they say she will never settle in one boma,

First Born In a Poor Family

Being a first born in a family of five called for more toilsome responsibilities,
So i dropped off my fears, packed my clothes and wore the sporty shoes of a pacesetter,
I waved goodbye to my kinsmen and treaded towards the bus station, out to the world of possibilities!

Father, Who Are You?

He created our first parents and gave them an order to multiply and fill the earth,
Out of just two people, a man and a woman, the world was born,
That’s one of the many reasons i do not joke with my creator,
We can read about Him for ages and ages, but we’ll never understand Him

I Still Love You Tania

You always kept away your phone, just to listen to my hilarious stories,
Something that every man with perfect levels of testosterone would treasure for ages,
I salute you ma’am, you’re still the woman of my dreams,
You voice was from a planet not yet known by human understanding,

Please Come Back, We Miss You

It’s barely a month since you left us on our own, with my daughter,
You made the decision when you found out that my ex paid me a visit at work,
I wanted to explain the whole drama but you said i was capable of man slaughter,
You gave up on us when we needed you most madam clerk,

Out of The Fiery Furnace

A story is told of the three Hebrew exiles, in a city far away,
Under a barbarian king who ruled over a certain city in Asia,
A king whose claws grew tougher surpassing the domestic Bombay,
Commanding a country in the suburbs of Northern Assyria,
