Oasis Poem by nimal dunuhinga

Oasis



[ Occasionally in life there are those moments of unutterable fulfillment which cannot be completely explained by those symbols called words. Their meanings can only be articulated by the inaudible language of the heart.]-Martin Luther King, Jr.

Camel
in the desert
you and I the poor Nomad
wander.
I am sure
you too
like to see
the Ocean.
Be patient my dear
as we're in a fertile
peaceful spot
but Ocean is deep?
You sing that old song
and I strum the lute;
'Kiss the shifting sand
though it's hot
as the life is cold
like a nightmare.'


for the poetess Harriet James!
