Onalethuso Petruss Ntema Poems

ECHOES OF AN AFRICAN TEAR: a Poet's Lament

I imagine an innocent child;
Waking up to the wave of xenophobic violence too near than far,
...

Fear is like fallen leaves,
It scatters in distant dreams,
...

wrap me in your arms
of comfort
sing to me the songs
of one thought
...

she is my sunshine
she is a true love child
the one that brings me a smile
so natural than wild,
...

path of roses

i took the path full of roses
endured the love of roses
...

memories

memories of the past
memories of the present
...

carry me (a river)

carry me a river
take i there, by the river
...

her golden eyes
see mine
through her eye
shadows
...

i would be you,

if wishes were choices
i would choose one
to roar my voices,
