Ruth Kamasungua Poems

I see that hope sprouting
Into a tiny shoot
Tiny yet thriving
It has the colour
...

I withdrew just to see if it doesn't matter
The clouds gathered
And the sky darkened
It was a tearful
...

The trees and mountains
The shrubs and bushes
Banana trees and pitpit
Builds a silhouette over the horizon
...

The plane landed on the tarmac
Bringing my heart back
Into its socket
The steps descend down
...
