Looking at a distant at this evaporating white coat
White layer of coat covering the earth
Like a blanket of fog
I feel the green hairs, fed by the white coat
Wet to the touch
I take a deep breath
Feel the calming air
that revitalises my soul
So fresh and crisp
From the hill top the river looks peaceful
Flowing with rhythm
In its golden rush
Richly nurturing its neighbouring plants
In the distance there are pigs and cows
Grazing from the freshly wet green hairs
I look at the time and realise
It is a beautiful morning in Mvezo Village
White layer of coat covering the earth
Like a blanket of fog
I feel the green hairs, fed by the white coat
Wet to the touch
I take a deep breath
Feel the calming air
that revitalises my soul
So fresh and crisp
From the hill top the river looks peaceful
Flowing with rhythm
In its golden rush
Richly nurturing its neighbouring plants
In the distance there are pigs and cows
Grazing from the freshly wet green hairs
I look at the time and realise
It is a beautiful morning in Mvezo Village
Nombies it's so nice to have you here I must say. And as it is I'm already enjoying your poems.
ReplyDeleteThe image is as evocative as the poem itself. "So fresh and crisp" is the "calming air," and honestly I can feel it. The way you use the words in this poem gets the message across in a very crisp and clear way. Keep it up.
