Desmond Tagoe Poems

Africa I am coming home, home to your breast.
Africa I am riding the waves nothing can stop us
Africa receive me under your wing hold and guide my spirit
Your beauty is deep inside me your wonder is in my heart
...

Spring Lady melt my mind Honey child sweeten my drink.
Pour me into your cup of desire and love Spring lady Honey child
What is your love to me if you keep running from my shadow
What is the tastes of your apples to me if they don't come to my lips.
...

Look to the land of the east and the west
there in the north and the south
Lift up your voice loud and clear speak so they all can hear..
Make up your mind is it light or dar.
...

All though I have never seen you I know you are there 
All though you have never told me I know me you do love
When I was but I thought you knew of
When I was not known to myself you knew of me
...

Captain of the water sailor of the sea through the stormy weather to the land of free.
Though many of us falter and many of us are weak we follow you for ever captain of the sea.
Crystal light shinning sea of sapphire green cosmic rings around us feeding us
you an me.
...

Today I spied a band of gold with an emerald for its crown
its feet were made of ivory its eyes were shining stars
I looked on with wonder my heart began to dance
I felt my bones come to life and I began to sing
...

Can a love song bring you into my arms can my words find there way your heart.
Can my song charm you so that you say we shall never part
This is the melody I shall sing for you this till the end of time
Soft kisses of love falling onto my lips hands of kindness embrace
...
