chisomo kumwanje Poems

Its green in the fields
Birds sail high
Quivering in ecstasy
Their marvellous melodies heard from afar
...

When my time comes
An angel will appear on my bed
And fool around
He will take with him
...

Tears have grown thick muscles
Eyebrows rose to thy heartless hints
All for a love that never melts
Kindly hardening a tender loving heart
...

Lead me through a world of Mechanics;
Where metals breed love
Where innocence is so stiff to earn
...

A melodious dawn
Caped in saw-dust
Morning stars riveted with thorns
The faces too cramped
...
