A Book Poem by Phiwokuhle Mpendulo Manana

A book is a colonial animal
Reading a book is like a beacon,
Giving light to know the whole world,



As you shamble alone is a den
Improve your standard
For reading gives concurrence.
The book colloq-holler.



For it is a safeguard to the nation,
People get vocabulary,
For it cling all around,
It is a sovereignty.



A man stride all around
Searching through the cavity.
For he heard about the realm,
Bellow all the way.
