Daniel Tshibangu Poems

The Best Poem Of Daniel Tshibangu

Father Time's Gray Hair

Days are born like weeks,
Beckoning to bustling businessmen
Weeks age like months
Projects polished to be poised to perfection
Months pass like years
Youth is held high in healing hearts

Hearts of the youthful beat hungrily,
Still naive to the pimples formed on Earth
Touched by the screams of shoes and the ones who step into them
Though only sheepishly looking in the eyes of their bosses
Their thoughts filled with trees and carbon,
Thinning the hair of the earth only to earn what cannot recover theirs.

The eyes of the dead yet living,
Are ones that hold the greatest truth
Ones marked by doodles,
Imagination that inspires ideas
Ones marked by graffiti
Rebels readied with rancor
Ones marked with outlines
Outlines that outline ones origin
Glimmering, they sail back
Flowing with the current
Treading on the peaceful seas of dawn
And with a grin of bliss, they drift
Asleep.
