A Poem ... African Child

African Child

Termite towers
Rusty red
Empty veld
Heaven’s bed

Lakes dry
Winds blister
Proteas stand
Silent whisper

Different desert
Transplanted soul
African child
Bitter toll

Deadly blizzards
Freezing cold
Yearning now
Days of old

Sunshine captured
Radiates still
Amazing woman
Indomitable will

Where’re she is
Gardens bloom
Warding back
Winters doom.
