Frank Bana Poems

The poem brings you verses
Elements, sun and rain
The rain, 'par averses'
Paints grass verdant green
...

Increasingly, she troubles me
I'm seeing her lately as light blue
In an auto-suggestive state
Sometimes with a tinge of red
...

Bandits on three sides, the ocean on the fourth
The city sat sparkling on its coastal berth
...

There is much peace in this young planet
Whenever we’re amazed and silent
There is more silence than yet encountered
Where we command our traffic to a halt
...

Hard to believe where it went down

A red telephone booth, the enclosed kind
...

Shower with a touch of gel
Shaving with the weather girl
Felons and stock market news
Coffee brew with cinnamon
...

Some poems are love songs
And can even be sung
Some are praises to love
All its glory and cost
...

In a smoky diorama, under glass
At the corner of the century,100 million were asked
To choose between a facile man, who presented himself cleverly
Hiding his real designs
...

[An orange on the table
Your dress on the rug
And you in my bed
Sweet gift of the present
...

Porcupines hunted by eyes in the forest
Big men have made off with all the pangolins

In Masvingo, eggs and bacon are served
...
